The shocked frock says a writer in

teenth century, when 1t was worn by
women and girls. and was, of course,
richly decorated with needIework.
Again, in England, during the early
part of the nineteenth century, a
smock frock was worn, but this time
by the farm hands, countrymen, etc.
1t was loose garment, like a mans
night shirt, but made Of coarse holland
or jean These were gathered at the
wrists and neck and worked with elab-
crate stitches, falling loose to below
the knee" The smock, with its all
but forgotten needIework decorations,
was revived some years ago by makers
of artistic gowns in London, and had a
great vogue for time. One we'll
known house still makes a speciality
Of waists and gowns with this work.
For little girls slips nothing prettier
