the ground 1t is dancing length and
great deal of fullness is let into the skirt
below the knees. The only trimming con-
sists of bands of cream lace put on side by
side in ladder fashion, the lace running
up the skirt like the rungs of a ladder.
Each rung is completed with tiny bow
of satin.
1t looks little as though the plain gown
were coming back again. The new dresses
show an almost classic plainness. They
have the plainness of the old Greek model
gown, which were exquisitely embroidered
and interworked without being fussy. You
would never think of calling the costumes
of the Greek dancing girls fussy. yet they
were marvels of beautiful handwork. And
that is the way with the new gowns of fall.
They are marvelously worked but they are
not at all frivolous. They are plain, with
really elegant simplicity.
Gems of MiIIionaires' Wives.
Three Pittsburg women passed through
New York the other day their way
from Europe to the Berkshires, where they
will finish the season. From the custom
house they brought nine trunks of dutable
gowns and in New York they purchased
as many more. The whole collection,
spread out in bewldering array, was Of
fered for the inspection of some New York
friends.
A fashion writer who happened to be pres
ent sketched a few of the gowns very
hastily. One was in very pale shade of
pearl. 1t was a street dress, with box
plated skirt, The jacket was a pony coat
and trimmed with bands of narrow
braid of radium texture. There was a
small turban-shaped hat of felt.
Another gown was in gray, but in a deeper
| shade. 1t was made up with p!pings of
steel blue and the hat was big black hat
trimmed with gray plumes and steel buck
les.
A gown that will make sensation was
in brown of a soft yellowish shade. 1t was
trimmed with bands of lustrous black satin.
The pipings were in pretty shade of
cherry and there was a girdle of black satin
with small stars of cherry worked in an ir-
regular design The suit was pretty enough
for any purpose at all, while the skirt car
ried out the dressy idea of being for parlor
wear, for 1t just escaped the ground and
was much shorter than the regulation

white striped satin. With this vest there
is black and white satin girdle which
fastens in the front with little hooks and
eyes concealed under tiny ladder of bows
The hat with this is a dashing wide
brimmed felt sailor trimmed with black
and white loops and a big blackbird.
On special days. such as coaching, racing
and tournament days, this cleverly dressed
woman removes the black and white satin
vest from the navy blue serge and in it's
place there is substituted one of brilliant
red. 1t is that particular shade of red
which is called hunting pink" With this
there is tricorne white felt, trimmed
profusey with red chouX and with red
tips. And there is a narrow red belt picked
out with steel nail heads. A red umbrella
and a steel handbag usually complete this
costume, though sometimes there is car
ried big white silk umbrella If there is
a chance of sunshine.

looks a little different is most important

HOW TO DRESS BECOMINCLY
A Problem Which Few Persons Can Solve
Satisfactorily,
TALK ABOUT FALL AND WINTER GOWNS
Clever Women Pick One Costume for
All seasoDs-shirtwaist a VAL
liable Adjunct for the
wardrobe.

"The problem of dress" said popular
actress noted for her gowns, rs one that
is solved by very few persons. Few
women ever learn how to dress becom-
ingly True, they manage to keep in style
and to wear the popular colors. But when
II comes to gownlng themselves to best
advantage they are lacking. They never
dress as well they should dress and
they never look as well as they ought to
look"
This statement, while IL may sound ex-
treme at first, is literally true-that is, Of
most people. Few ever arrive at perfec-
ton in dress and few women, indeed,
in any walk of life ever came to any solu-
tlon at all of the dress problem. They do
not achieve that which they hoped to
achieve
The trouble with all dress just at pres
ent is that of the shirtwaist complication
Instead of being worn in it's own proper
time and place It is worn in all seasons
and out. 1t has become a sort of uniform
in which all women are to be found at all
, times.
'"rhe shirtwaist," said a modesto "is our
most valuable adjunct. But 1t is valuable
only when women know how and when to
wear 1t. 1t should be in every wardrobe,
but there are times when 1t is inappro-
pirate.
THE place for the shrtwaist," she con-
tinued, us with the Elton jacket and the
princess skirt. The Elton overhangs the
skirt and it is necessary to have hand
some little shirtwaist under the Elton.
Here, then. comes the shirtwaist's oppor-
tunity
Another very valuable shirtwaist oc-
casion is found under the little pony coat
which is so much worn this fall The
pony buttons down the front But there
IS an open space at the neck, sometimes
extending into quite a large opening. And
here the shrtwaist comes in very handily
again. 1t is necessary to the costume, a
part of it.
1.-The shirtwaist is charming in the house,
with a skirt to match, and it Is lovely in
the evening made up Frenchily, with plenty
of lace. And it is, OF course, ideal for all

walking length. 1t was a charming dress
and one that might commend itself to the
woman who is looking for a pretty color
scheme.
The colors of fall are gray and violet,
heliotrope and apple green. Butter color
and chamois follow closely after. And all
the burnt bread shades can be found, as
well as all the tones of peach and rose.
And there are also many gowns in the
more fiaring tones of orange and emerald
green. These dresses are wonderfully
pretty II worn well.
1t will be seen from this enumeration
that the dresses of the winter are to be
much lighter in tone. And also that one
will need more gowns than ever before. 1t
may also be added that never were the
materials as light in weight.
The popular stuffs are the serges, which
come in charming tones this season. And
along with these there are the cashmeres,
which could not possibly be prettier. And
there is the large family of merinos, which
do excellent service, do not spot nor shrink
and which wash almost like calico. These
things must all be taken into consideration
when one is buying light colored gowns
