The season Of summer outings, be-
and all sorts Of plans have been made
to meet it. .|
If there is any one thing that the
devotees Of fashion are noted for now,
adays it is the absolute appropriateness
and suitability of the toilette at all
times and under all circumstances. And
this much-to-be-desired quality shines
forth with particular brightness about
the time Of the summer outings.
Theirs are the smart tailored shirt
waists, the wooltex skirts of dust-shed-
ding mohair or sicilienne, cut short
enough not to interfere in. walking, and
at the same time displaying the good
taste Of the smart hosiery and the
shiny black shoe that retains its gloss
under all the vicissitudes Of country
roads or seashore board walks. Theirs,
too. are the smart outing hats Of felt
or duck or linen that no shower can
spoil, and the smart lines Of the coif-
fure, be it dressed high or low as the
case may be, kept In trim with a swag-
ger hair net. -

trihes to the woman who claims that
she is too busy, too much absorbed in
her household or her business pursuits
to lose any time or pay any attention
to such smeall g and inconsequential de-
tails; but If she give the matter a mo-
ment's thought she. will readily. see
that clever dressing is made up Of just
such little things. Not SO much is it
a large wardrobe to select from that
makes for good dressing. Far from it.
Rather is it the clever selection Of a
few things, the providing of Just the
right, accessories to go with them,. and
these few trifes to the vefy best .ad-
vantage. That is what really consti-
tutes clever and up-to-date dressing,
and the woman who knows makes, this
her creed and follows it religiously.
