Tiny baskets of Irish crochet filled
with pompadour flowers, are among
the new lace medallions.
Dainty new wraps are made Of the
various white linens in very open pat
terms, and are lined with thin colored
silks
- The Pompadour silks, daintily fig
ured are used for separate skirts with
which are worn delicate blouses of en-
broidered linen and lace.
The fashioned round, straight
skirt, with deep hem and large tucks,
will be a la mode this summer. We
shall see it in all sorts of sheer mate
rials-in lawns, batistes and cotton
chiffon.
If the small hat is to be worn with
tailor dress, good sense demands
that it be as simple as possible. A
pretty straw with quill at the left
and a little knot or posy not bigger
than a buttonhole bouquet placed in
front at the right is sufficient.
= There is no general rule to follow
regarding the length of the summer
skirt OF course for outings and gef.-
eral street wear, the walking lengrn
prevails, but gowns for house func-
tions, driving, calling and dreasy wear
invariably have full-length skirts with
suggestion of a train.
Violet hatpins are lovelier than
ever The newest has an enameled
double violet for head, with a rhine
stone hanging from behind one Of the
back petals. OF course, with every
slightest movement the stone moves
and sparkles, heightening the dew
drop idea.
Rufies are both stylish and lainty
for sheer materials, some of the gowns
of null and chiffon being ruffies from
waistline to hem. AS rule tho frills
are edged with very tiny edging OF
lace, and II the latter Is side or knife
plated, so much the prettier, DIt II
requires an alarming quantity OF lace

- Sleeves appear to grow shorter as
the season advances. Even the tailors
are yielding to the fashion, and end
their sleeves at the elbow. A new
feature, seen upon many OF the. after
noon and dinner gowns, is fall OF
lace attached to the outer seam of the
round puffed sleeve and reaching tc
just below the elbow.
The newest belt forms part Of 9
set to which belong the cuffs and turr
over collar. The material Is linen, the
decoration button-holing and embroid-
cry. A belt with a watch pocket Is
new-in piqpe or linen. IT Is wide
four or five inches-has the usua
oblong gilt buckle, and the pocket is
at the left side, little pointed fiaI
buttoning down over. II, to hold the
watch securely.
| - Scotch ginghams have made theii
appearance. In unusually attractive
guise, and there is no material better
suited for the smart little morning
shirt-waist dress. The laundering
qualities of these -ginghams have CIV
en- them deserved popularity. Tartan
and less striking plaids and checks are
among the most effective Of these
goods, while in plain effects there is
shown a beautiful assortment of col
ors. 49, -

have a tight-fitting coat and a waist
coat buttoned high to the throat
Earlier in the season these coats show
ed linen lace trimmings and embroid-
cry in mercerized nuns thread: Then
came the addition Of velvet collar;
and now, as If realizing that these So
called tub gowns are ruined unless
dry cleaned, the tailors have them en-
broidered in white and colored silks
as elaborately as the handsomest cloth
gowns. ...-.....-.. ...-...........
| Panama has taken away some OIL
the favor usually accorded to mohair
because 1t is newer and has the same
qualities of lightness and invulnerabil-
| ity to dust; but the manufacturers
have introduced so many new effects
| In mohair and made 1t so much softer
than of old, that they have given II
a new lease of popularity. The inVis-
ible checks in one tone and the her
ringbone designs are successful, and

The fashion of wearing light
gowns over colored Innings, which had
fallen almost into disuse for the past
several seasons, has come into this
season with as much popularity as to
be more like a fad. The flowered Pom
padour silks, gauzes, mulls and organ
dies and chiffons are worn over Innings
of a color emphasizing the flower,
either the same or a contrasting color.
A pretty silk null covered with large
pink roses without foliage was worn
over a green silk slip with good effect,
for instance. A very ultra gown was
Of gray voile worn over plaid lining
of pink and green, and trimmed with
ecru lace.
While the simple skirt Is much In
demand, there Is really no limit placed
upon skirt decorations. The word sim
pie, of course, applies to any skirt
that has not some variety of lace ,riin-
ming upon it, no matter how mucn
stitching is employed, or how fanc!fGl
the design. There are many charming
ways of arranging stitching however
One of the newest Is to apply bias
bands Of the same or a contrasting ma
terial upon the skirt, stitched down
closely on both edges. The bands form
narrow panels, extending from the
hips to the knees, and within Is Il
smaller panel. Below there are tucks,
graduated in length, with the longest
at The front. If further orEamentatior
Is desired, two more bands may be
stitched below the tucks, with dia-
mond shaped designs of stitched Goth
sandwiched between.
