Gardner, N D. -R, M. II.
There Is certainly no reason why you should be
Disguised young person. 1ndecison Is apt to attack
US all at some time other, and Is exeusabe You
are just tall and well grown, and how many Of the
SNORT ana stout type are there who would not gladly
change places with you9 Instead of being disgusted
you should be grateful to nature. Make your skirt in
full box pleat style, trimming nine ten inches above
the hem with several of black braid in graduated
widths On the waist deep yoke of pretty gay plaid
cut on the bias will become you, the lower portion Of
waist box peated to yoke and taken into the waist
line, with corsage Of the silk Rows Of braid will
conceal the join Of yoke to waist The sleeves may be
large puffs Of silk with tcaps-slashed-an trimmed
with the braid falling over, Or they may be full
sleeves Of the material, taken into silk cuffs. You
would find this stylish gown and the plaid colorings
may be red and blue green, blue and black
bined Try and dress to appear broad that is always
trim horizontally, vertically; choose full baggy
sleeves, skirts in double triple effects, and wear
broad belts. Fluffy waists will be better than full
ones and for general your skirts may be short
as can be conventionally Plaids and checks
will become you better than plain materials. Striped
ertical-should not be adopted at any time
Large, fat hats will apparently decrease your height
especially if they black The riding habit should
make IN sidepleated skirt with hem the bottom
and fairly loose pony coat the and lower edge
trimmed with black BRAID coat sleeves with collar
and cuffs Of black silk. Tho simple, as riding habit
should be, 1t will be extremely stylish.
