Black Over White l. Popular.
Black over white is French touch
that is taking on this side Of the
water. A handsome black gown trim
med with black lace. which has the
black cut away from under its most
striking patterns, letting white lining
show through, gives something the APP
pearance OF medallions set on. but Is
much newer.
X woman cannot afford two coat
suits one for morning and rough
wear, the other for all social afternoon
AFFAIRS. then BY all means let her
choose the one for the street. For the
other occasions she can wear a blouse
frock under. coat This Is the best
arrangement OF her money. The latter
may be made at home and quite In
expensive in material. It can be lace
| trimmed, with unlined yoke and lace
sleeves. This suit win serve for every
social affair such as receptions lunch-
cons. teas and theaters.
House skirts essuid d Full.
| For the house the skirts are ex-
tremely full. They are long. sweep
ing the floor In the ordinary skirt, and
extending into square court train on
elaborate hall frociks. The latter viii
be worn. however. by the majority for
they are intended for that class who
go IN very formal society They
should not be worn casually to sim
pie affair. The debutante will not
wear them ar she once did. They are
one Of the fashions really kept exclu-
sively for the matrons.
A tailor suit in the house in the eve
ming is in bad taste as light. thin
frock with lace yoke IA the church.

1t would certainly make things easier
+ for the designer II women would only
see the absurdity OF such q choice. II
is but a question OF expense That
does not enter into II. For woman
must have street frock rather than
an evening one.
If you possess a bit of Chantilly Or
Spanish lace. which has been stored
away for generations get It out and
rejoice. for now is the time to wear
1t. II you have no such heirlooms. the
modern maker can supply the want
for never in the history of lace mob
