NEW IN EMBROIDERY
AN EFFECTIVE AND SIMPLE COM
BINATION.
Flower Design on Front Of Blouse
Has Caught the Fancy
Of Those Who Seek
Originality.

Weary of embroidered blouses In
French work. in eyelet and in shadow
work. the girl who can have what she
wants looks listlessly around for an
inspiration which will tell her what
she does want. says a writer In the
New York Herald. The shops are
full Of these oft told tales of embroid-
cry, and no new idea comes to her.
1t seems to be lurking on the horizon,
or just over 1t, where she cannot see

thing most effective and rich.
And then she sees it! A friend has

use. And. joy of joys! II is a kind
of work which may be done on the
beach, on the veranda, while waiting
for the mail, by electric light, and, in
deed. in any moment that is free from
other joys and duties.
II Is strikingly effective and yet
so simple in construction as to be
almost childish. And this Is what 1t
is: Any effective flower design is
stamped on the front OF a blouse-a
sheer lawn or handkerchief linen one
and over this is basted piece of
heavy Brussels net. The edges are
cut away at the outline of the whole
design. If there is no outline at the
edge of the design carry lines of
stems or leaves around to meet, so

Gingaja, "if there are any here whose

IN MATTERS OF HEADGEAR.
Downward or Upward 5rim Is the
Question to Decide.

Dip brims fight steadily to retain
their hold upon feminine favor. and 1t
will be some months before the bat
tie between the downward and up
ward effect will be definitely decided.
One thing, however, is certain. Wide
brims are bound to prevail for all
headgear to be worn with elaborate
gowns, and a marked feature OF their
trimming is the tendency to use light
flowers and ribbons on dark hats and
vice versa, as is the case of black
hat trimmed with rose ribbon and
roses to be worn with rose C-ePo
gown, and with a white felt hat
trimmed with black plumes and vel
vet Flowers will be seen on many
of the hats made of heavy materials,
usually matching in tint the other
trimmings. The milliner's bow has OF
late become a wonderful and eccen-
trio production. At times it is a
myriad of short loops and ends. on
other occasions it lies stifly and fatty
like a birds wing against the crown,
and, again, plated in clusters, it forms
bulky loops, accented by handsome
buckle

that when embroidered the edge or
the net shall be covered and securely
anchored there by the stitches. Next
stuff or pad the flower and leaf forms
thickly with embroidery cotton or
darning cotton and work solidly over
them with a rather coarse mercerized
thread. The work stands up beauti-
fully and gives a very rich effect.
When the embroidery 10 finished the
lawn IL cut away at the back. leaving
the embroidered design as If worked
directly on the net.
Such flower forms as honeysuckle.
chrysanthemums, daisies. slim tiger
lilies-in fact, any flower with long
narrow petal-are best. The embroid-
cry stitch is carried across the petal
the narrowest way. 1t is best to avoid
too long stitches, as they are liable
to catch and pull. For this reason.
when working leaves It is a good
plan to stun the two sides from the
center vein separately, and 10 en-
broider these two parts with a distinct
line Of division down the center. This
makes more variety in the work and
the short stitches wear best. The
stufflng stitches lies in the opposite
direction to the embroidery ones al
ways.
The same idea may be carried out
on the collar and cuffs. There may be
also a little embroidery on the top OF
each sleeve. A complete yoke of this
net embroidery is very effective, and
the work goes very quickly. Even an
impatient girl who loves to be ION the
co. playing tennis, boating or swim
ming, may on rainy days accomplish
this and be elated at the possession
of blouse quite different from those
worn by her friends.
A simple method of using the net
is to stamp design suitable for cut
work and buttonhole the edges of the
design.

DICTATES OF FASHION.

Dresden and pompadour silk foun-
dations are being used for chiffon and
voile dresses.
Trimming ideas are numberless.
Tiny ball drops, tassels and pendants
of all descriptions are shown on the
new models.
Somewhat heavier and rougher
goods will be fashionable this fall.
Scotch cheviots of fancy design will
be much used in the construction of
tailored gowns.
Two distinctive features may be
noted about sleeves. They have much
more fulness at the top, some OF them
even being laid in deep plaits, and
they are very ornate, even to the point
of fussiness.
When one does not have a skirt with
a paneled front, plain gored front is
often trimmed with buttons and loops.
This adornment sometimes goes to the
bottom of the skirt, on both sides; nj
other times it extends a little below
the hips.
There appears to be some contro.
versy about the wearing of hatpins
Some say that none should be visible
at all; but, on the other hand. the
most exquisite designs are seen in
wrought gold and colors to harmonic
with hat or gown.
