 Large flourishing figures and small | conventional ones are alike used both in embroidery patterns and braiding | designs. Some of the lace braids lend themselves to exquisite effects, espe- cially when the design Is appliqued over fine tucks. This is especially for act net waists, the net tucked and a Duchesse braid used in decorations. Braiding is a prominent feature of some of the newest yachting suits which are of white, serge or linen, with ' a border design around the bottom of the ankle-length skirt and the deep pointed collar, done in an elght-inch fiat braid of plain weave. The sleeves are invariably elbow length, with roll up cuffs. Instead of the shield there is detachable pointed yoke, very small affair, which, in the white suit is fash toned of a color, scarlet or light or dark blue, or else of the same material braided to correspond with the band on l the skirt.
 A French model shows a natty hip length jacket with very straight lines topping a jaunty skirt closely kilted around the hips. Tn linen, this design is also given finish of braiding around the bottom of the coat, straight up and down the front and around the turn over colalr
 With the serge yachting suits smart round hats of soft felt, caught up at one side, are worn, a straight band around the crown, and long white quill thrust through the knot which conceals its fastening. Linen sailors or those of Milan straw, well wired to keep the shape, the top linen suits. For afternoon occasions on board yacht nothing is prettier or more suitable than the variou linens always decorated with embroidery White has first choice and a very charming one recent | ly seen was very elaborate with the most exquisite hyacinth design done in natural tints and topped with stiff, round salor covered with the dress em- broidered material trimmed with a band of artificial hyacinths. The color ed linens which are much in vogue show embroideries picked out with seven or eight shades of silk of the | gown color, and usually are made up with some one of those chic little En- gllsh coatees lined and faced with silk of one of the shades shown in the em- broidery With these suits are worn only the sheerest, filmiest of lingerie waists, and to be quite correct the enl- broidery on them will be carried out in the design on the suit. The coatees have very generally superseded the etons and boleros of the earlier part of the season, and the Frecnh give an added touch of smartness with adjust able cuffs and collars of some striped material, preferably silk.
 One of the most noticeable charac- teristics of this season apparel is the essence of startling combinations, such as the brilliant scarlets and vivid greens which have haunted us in sea- sons past Pastel tints and colors answer just now, and the keynote
 'daintiness is sounded so distinctly that we are sure to eXpeience some disap- pointment in reconciling ourselves to | the dark colors and severe lines which the French modistes promise us for fall and winter.
 Anything new in the way of hair dressig is sure to be hailed with enthu- siasm, sa, when a certain New York hair-dresser summering at Newport, and incidentally serving a few of her most exclusive customers, sent one of them forth with an entirely new coif, | great was the interest aroused and the ''Muriel twist had been added to the list of styles It is accomplished in this wise; Comb the hair out smoothly, | then separate the top from the loWert part; gather the top in a pomadour effect, drawing the hair rather closely at the sides; coil the ends under the l pompadour. Now draw the back hair up making of it three lops, fastening each of them with fancy pin, The loops should stand up against the pom padour. If preferred, tn three loops might be fastened with ordinary bone or shell pins, and a cornoet-shaped comb inserted between the pompadour | anu lllC VuQ1'
 While we are upon the subject, there is another form of hair-dressing that is gradually obtaining popularity, es- pecially among those to whom the part | is becoming. In this the Marcel wave is brought into use. All of the hair Is first treated in this manner then part ed through the center, pulled out and pressed down, giving the effect of a fold instead of the pompadour severi- ty, which this would otherwise give, being avoided by curling the few short hairs underneath. The back may be done high or low as desired, although the former seems to be rather more popular just now, both for day and evening wear. One of the prettiest motor veils is a plain chiffonette with two-inch hem dotted with silk spots of varying sizes.
 Those who follow the French fash ions closely are having their early fall costumes made with basques, the waist line being just as high up as it is possible to make it,-New Yoark Even- ing Post,
