styles find this quality in the many
boxed patterns offered.
In regulation dress materials, some
of the manufacturers show a tendency
to again make the polka dot fashion
able. A number of polka dotted silks
are to be seen, with white and blue
prominently to the fore, and for plain
chambrays and linens the box gowns
show matching embroideries.
AS to methods of making, the coun-
try-looking little frocks in these last
materials display an agreeable sim
plicity. The pleated and gored and
hounced skirts are less complicated
than those of last summer, and various
girdle effects form the most important
detail of bodices. So high and con-
cealing, indeed, are some of the new
girdles that they almost suggest cor
sets, except at the front where the
wide line still narrows becomingly.
However, word comes from Paris
that the high girdle cannot last much
longer. One big Partisan maker is al
ready designing costumes with the mar
rowest girdleS, and where other men
milliners send out shaped belts almost
armpit high his are the merest straight
lines. This maker, it is said, will also
exploit princess effects. with skirt and
girdle in one. F'ussy little jackets will
form the upper garment with such
models. and the bottom of the skirts
will be decked with fiat trimmings.

gay little garment of lace or silk,

through this additional and very ele-

One such model displays a coat of
mauve lace, over a skirt of mauye
mousseline and velvet. The velvet, in
wide band, trims the edge of the
shirred fiounce, the upper part of the
skirt finishing with a fitted princess
girdle. Over this the loose skirt of
the lace jacket falls transparently,

of the skirt iounce. The bodice part
of the jacket is gathered over a NOUS

satin slippers are seen, lace rosettes or
butterflies or beaded bows trimming
the prettily rounded toes. The long
chains of the hour are also worn with
these charming house toilettes and if the
occasion is an evening one, and the
gown very dainty, a string of pearls
may clasp the throat tightly.
To reproduce one of these gowns any
simple material which is delicately col

Brocaded ribbons may also adequately
substitute richer trimmings, and these
may be turned and twisted upon the
bodice section to simulate all of the
little Jacket effects so much worn. One
ravishing little gown was of white
chiffon mousseline, with wide blue
and black flowered ribbon manipulated
to shape Jacket lines upon the bodice
At the front the dashing band was
drawn up under the arms to form
three large stiff bows at the bust. at
the center of which tiny black velvet
ones were placed. The effect of this
simple garniture, which was put on
with true millinery touch, was really
splendid.

Gold embroidery outlines the V-neck

Many inexpensive remnants of gay
SILK may be found now in the shops,
and cheap laees and velvet ribbon,
tastefully manipulated, will resolve
them into the smarteSt tea or coffee
jackets. With an old white evening
gown which is not too dressy, a blue,

Jacket will give the proper tea gown
look. The coat can be smartened in
many ingenious ways by using lace

under the colored silk sleeves may
emerge many charming and stylish
undersleeve effects.
Wash spring textures, which are al

models in these materials emphasize
the delicate elegance of the textures
with perfect hand sewing, and trim

broideries, fine in quality, but incon-
SpIcuouS in patterns, trim many of
these gowns, along with plain and
bordered wash ribbons. Insertions and
frilled edges of plain and point d'esprit
footlngs are seen on others. as well
as many pretty imitation laces, and

many a little gown is done with open
