In the illustration it is made of chif-

known as crushed raspberry and is
trimmed with velvet of the same
shade and with velvet buttons while
the chemisette is of cream lace over
chiffon. The material is one of the
prettiest of the new silks and is well
liked both for separate waists and
for gowns, but there are also great
many other silk materials that are
appropriate and also long list Of
veilings and the like. In fact, the
blouse is adapted to any seasonable
material that is available for indoor
wear.
There is fitted lining that is
closed at the centre front and on this
are arranged the chemisette and the
various portions of the waist. The
back of the waist is laid in tucks
that are stitched fiat and which give
becoming lines to the figure, while
there are pleated portions in the
front that are distinctly novel and
provide becoming fulness. The clos

any good. Old DR.. c. suggested that
