Although the soft white necker-
chief Of our grandmothers has evolved
into an elaborate affair, 1t Is sti1 quite
as picturesque and apparently quite as
popular. The fichu has but one fault

is loosened. to allow the folds to
straighten cut. the two sides will not
meet properly in front without giving
a drawn look: so 1t behooves one to
have them properly cut and properly
folded.
Another secret which Is worth re-
membering is given upon the authority
OF an expert fichu-maker. She says for
a square yard fichu the ruffles should
be at least six yards long before gath
ering. In other words, yard and
half Of ungathered ruffling should be
allowed for every yard OF material.

a chou Of white roses dangled.
Pink cherry blossoms may be used
effectively upon such gown, and also
white roses and marguerite daisies.
Even violets may be utilized for this
fichu effect, and when perfumed will
please the sense quite as much as the
eye. Flowers for this sort Of decora-
ton need not be necessarily made Of
silks and velvets and fashioned after
the regulation factory style, for among
the prettiest and daintiest accessories
are the flowers fashioned from bits of
ribbon and made in spare minutes at
home.
The girl who is not blessed with a
well-rounded out pocket book should
espouse the fichu cause with great fer
vor Why? Simply because two gowns
will serve for six, and the transforma-
ton is made by using a variety of
fichus. A simple white frock trimmed
with one made Of pale blue chiffon
hand painted with a border of mink
rosebuds, looks absolutely different
from the same foundation trimmed
with a soft white null, with biIlow.
OF dainty ruffies all edged with valen-
ciennes. Or again the fichu may be
made OF three ruffies Of lace and caught
at the waist line with a flower or a
soft bow of satin ribbon.
An exquisitely dainty fchu may be

points is that it may be worn bertha
fashion around the top of bodice with
either high or a low necked gown, or
1t may be worn crossed in front and
fastened with dainty floral pin.
And. by the way. floral pins are q
new ornament that have been turned
out as a finishing touch for the fichu.
Not Of silver nor yet of gold are they
fashioned, but of chiffon, to match the
fichu itself. For instance. one was
made to represent an exaggerated edel-
weiss with folded petals. A safety pin
underneath keeps the blossom In posi-
tion and at the same time holds the
fchu itself firmly in place.
The slender girl who can stand guam
titles of fluff and feather causes the
pleating to stand out gracefully, so that
it really flares at the edge.
When made after this style one
thing must be remembered and that
is in dry cleaning them the edge Of
the frills must be tackled so that the
pleatings will not come out. If this is
neglected the fichu might as we'll be
relegated to the darkest corner In the
attic. for it drooDs in a pathetic way
and acts as though it was most woe
fully ashamed of itself.
An imported fichu. which, by the
way. is strikingly Partisan, is made Of
wide. white silk lace Two long plas-
irons of all-over lace are made over
pale yellow silk. These cross over the
shoulders and are edged with two rows
of four-inch lace. They meet at the
waist line in the back and are closed
with a jabot of black velvet which
has long ends. The ends in front are
finished in jabot fashion, also with
black velvet ribbons
These pretty things are not only worn
with thin white or daintily colored
organdies, but with other fabrics as
well. for as an accessory for silk voile
or challie there is nothing more grace
full or chic for finish about the
shoulders. OF course, nothing is quite
as handsome as rare old laces, and the
girl who is fortunate enough to possess

nine type made her debut with
the early roses. A breath Of
spring always seems to linger
about her and she is as spark
ling and sweet as a rose herself, this
edition de luxe Of her great-grand-
mother. First she timidly borrowed
ideas from the great attic chest, but
now she boldly robs the cedar, and her
latest steal has been the old-fashioned
but altogether charming fchu.
When she doffed her old furbelows
and dOnned the new in all its charm

persOnated the Puritan maiden type TO
marked degree, even to cultivating
the low, musical voice and the modest
demeanor For. you see, to be any
thing else would be entirely out OF
keeping with her new badge Of sweet
daininess, which she will wear on any
and all occasions. and If it were but
known she has figured out that many
a masculine heart will be captured and
held by her own aud the fchu's
various charms.
This fetching summer girl is q dia-
phanous creature in her soft, fluffy
gowns, which are so full at the hip
and fare so broadly at the bottom.
Whether her frocls are Of mousseline.
fishnet or bobbinet it matters not, but
each one has a fichu that is made on
an entirely new plan, for she brooks no
similarity in any Of them. To be sure
this has meant not a little study and
the display Of surprising ingenuity, but
once started upon her favorite theme,
no Two have been, so far, alike.

out in bold relief like panne velvet, and
when made over a contrasting shade
Of silk the effect of these mousselines
is bewitching.
A pure white one with violets sprink-
led over il has been worn by the lassie
whose choice Of colors is invariably
the same. The one bit of color was the
violet silk which the fichu was draped
over, crossing V fashion in front, fast
ening at the waist line with a baroque
pearl pin. Occasionally the triple frills
OF the fichu may be piped with black
velvet baby ribbon to give a little
from the waist line nearly to the bot
tom Of the skirt.
The new printed bobbinets are splen-
did for fchu effects, and are great IA
vorites with the summer girl. A white
one which has small pink rosebuds
scattered over il dresses up a plain
gown till it scarcely knows itself, and
certainly no one else does A pretty
way to finish such a one is to edge

one OF the most charmingly original

one Of the best Of woman, the COM

mother. Her frail constitution was
not able to combat a combined at
tack of measles and pneumonia, a
fact Of which both patient and

the sad elimination was not a sur
prise to either. No more perfect
christian resignation could have
been shown, and such an exhlbl'

could be left those who loved her.

was Lightner, was about 63 years
of age, aud was preceded to the

viving her are one son, Mr. Willis
