 But to go back to hand embroidery-the most unusual and richest of all its many applications IS to whole costumes of linen where skirt and waist are both embroidered, the design made factor in oversllirtsan an old idea, but radically new form of it-which offer so good opportunity for dis playing the work.

 Perhaps the gloves and parasol, hat and pumps are all embroidered match. For although there's only occasional lingerie hat to be seen there plenty of eghorns with motifs of the finest sort of handwork inset into the straw in such fashion that they seem to give dominating touch of em- broidery.

The tiny wraps which this summer is making such fuss over show embroidery, too trimming the all but shapeless little sleeves around the shoul ders, down front end back-everywhere there IS the slightest excuse for 1t.

A New Material for Hot Weather

T GUARDS and China silks have seen such H long and faithful service for summer that
 almost every one welcomes 4s a pleasant change new material from which many ot this seasons gowns are made.
 This fabric, which is being much used by th3 most fashionable modistes both in this country and Paris, Is called by various names, such as radum silk or pineapple tissue.
 In point of fact it is neither one or the other as generally understood, but is very thin lgh. silk, almost transparent with brilliant sheen It has something the appearance of the old-time delaine. but is softer and more silky looking.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1906-06-24

One of the chief advantages of this material is that it does not wrinkle like foulards and other summer silks and while soft and "cingy" it is not "slinky."
 Many shirtwaist gowns are being made up in this new silk, some without any lining others with one of thin lawn. Such a costume is more nearly cool than is possible for anything not sheer cot ton to be.
