FPiIIs of Fashion,

Blue, dark or light, is perhaps the favor
tie OF all colors for bathing suits.
Hand embroidered sheer white lawn bed
spreads with narrow ruffie around the
edge are among the prettiest of summer
bed coverings.
There Is continual demand for collars
turnovers, blouses, girdles and the like
which are both cheaper when homemade
and pleasant to work upon.
Lingerie hats are being embroidered not
only by the girls for their own wear, but
for their younger sisters. and the mammas
are making them for the tiny girls
these are stamped for the embroidery
upon both the heavy and medium weight
linen.
White horse hair makes the coolest OF
summer hats and the lightest. Many are
trimmed with white feathers, and a large
one which is charming is trimmed with
two big pink roses, their foliage and q
couple OF big lilac clusters.
A pretty new accessory Of dress has ap.

A pretty and convenient case for the

widths and large round needle.
Broad bands Of lace insertion and en-

but taffeta is expensive, all the more so
because it's wearing qualities are not very

beware of the Hoopskirt.


The assertion that the introduction of the
hoop skirt in modified form need not
necessarily lead to the extremes of style
and that II will be followed by the elimina-
ton OF the hustle, the pneumatic pad and
other "hidden helps at present in vogue
among womankind. is not made by those
familiar with the history OF the crino-
line.
Tho evolution of that interesting article
of feminine attire, from the late sos, when
Eugene and Victoria stamped 1t with ap-
proval, to it's Anal extinction in the early
'7Os, when the overthrow of the French
empire and the greatest financial panic in
our history brought about q temporary
reaction toward the simpler life, proves
that 1t is capable not only Of phenomenal
development and almost miraculous ten
acity, but of carrying in it's train a pro-
cession composed practically OF all the
freaks OF fashion that the human mind
can conceive
The last visitation OF the crinoline began
with the starched white underskirt, relates
the Chicago Inter-Ocean. 1t seemed inno-
cent enough. Gradually the skirts were
increased in fullness and stiffness. Then
a single split rattan hoop was inserted In
the hem around the bottom. Then the
bird-cage rattan hoop skirt, each hoop
wrapped In cotton batting and covered with
cotton cloth. was substituted for the
starched skirt. Then Yankee ingenuity
devised the steel spring hoop, and then
everything became possible.
At first the steel hoops were far apart
and modest in size. Little by little the
circumference OF the street dress increased
until a tilter with q modern swing re-
quired the entire width OF sidewalk for
full play.
Instead Of eliminating all other hidden
helps the hoop skirt opened the way for
the hustle, which in the late COS and
early '7Os attained to dimensions and forms
that cannot be recalled even at this late
day without shudder. But, worse than
, all. the declining hoop skirt, which grad
ually became reduced to the size at present
contemplated. with its hustle attachment
made possible that nightmare of the nine
teenth century known as the "Greciar
