Little buttons are stiI appearing. ar

and froclzs. and The newest idea is TO
have double row OF buttons down in
the bodice and continued on to the skirt
10 about eight inches below the waist:
these, let Ii be noted. placed at what
might be called the double-breasted
width apart-that IS. Just as buttons
are arranged on a double breasted
coat. When early last year buttons be-
came popular they were placed closer
together. The new device is peculiarly
cye-pieasins ON a blouse bodice with
fun skirt. And the buttons in question
may be either identcalIy colored with
the frock and even of the very fabric
OF the cloth ard then embroidered over
with silk or beads; or they may be of
velvet corresponding or contrasting
with the dress and embroidered: or IL
