Colored mulls and Paris muslins are
to be worn and they will be hand en-
broidered in white and trimmed with
white lace and footing. writes Annie
Rittenhouse They Will be worn with
coat suits Of the same color and are
much prettier than white blouses over
colored Innings. which have been given
black eye this season by this abuse Of
them
All sorts Of cheap gaudy Innings were
worn under all manner OF white blouses
at places and on occasions which called
for much less ornate dressing.
There is a wide return. by the way. to
the plain shirt-waists Of four years ago

They are put into tiny box plaits with
out stitching and depend for their dain-

cuffs which are fastened together at the
back
Plain folded stocks or turnover en-
broidered linen collars are worn with
the new dusty blue pink and violet four

When these are made OF thin white

shops, yet every woman could do it at
