Once upon a time The Woman Who
Sews received a gown home from hef
dressmak er In which the skirt pleats teii
sadly awry. The skirt made many VISITS
and return visits to the dressmaking es-
Establishment without appreciable better
ment, and at the end the last state Oh
these misplaced pleats was worse tnan
the first
Then The Woman Who Sews arose In
her wrath. grasped the scissors and
ripped those grievous pleats out entirely;
pressed the skirt out fiat, and with car
penter's foot rule, aided and abetted by
the dressmakers tape measure and
piece of chalk, she made those pleats
mechanically true, basted them, tried
the skirt on, noted the slight deviatiOns
which her Irregularities of figure i'm
posed, corrected such and sewed the
pleats after the correct fashion.
Then, in the first flush of pride which
success brings, she announced to her
husband that SHE, no dressmaker at all,
had made the thing right when the pro
fessional dressmaker had failed, and
wasn't it smart and clever of her, and
all the rest of 1t?
To which the husband of. The Woman
Who Sews calmly responded: well, my
dear, and why shouldn't you? If the
dressmaker who botched that gown had
received even a tenth of the education
or a fraction OF the money that has been
lavished upon bringing you up. 1t is n
sure and safe bet that she would not be
dressmaking for you today; she would be

est cambria linen Is not whit more cost
ly. These exquisite little point d'esprit
nets and durable tullines are Inexpensive;
and for trimmings real cluny, maltese ana
Irish lace are not so fabuously expensive
that they are beyond her reach.
The first thing is to get shirtwaist
pattern that fits. The slender woman
would best avoid those with an extra I'M
derarm piece, the pattern, on the con.
trary, that will yield the stout sisterhood
best results.
Since shallow yokes are really the foun-
dation of the best current designs the
fancy blouse had better be planned with
this making it not to exceed bve inches
in depth from the throat line. The back
fastening is beginning TO give way to the
invisible front or side fastening, and those
little blouses or bodices as they are
known now, that present some semDiance
of a vest or waistcoat are really ON the
crest of the modish wave, and since they
are far more novel than their baggy prede-
cessors, 1t is as well TO fashion ones new
possessions In the very creme de la creme
of the mode.
The collar Is a far more important point
in those separate blouses than the aver
age maker calculated for. In the ready
to-wear productions, even In the most
costly. many women OF long and graceful
necks find the collars provided totally In
adequate, both from the point Of size and
fit. Make very sure that your pattern pro-
vides for very little scoop taken out OF

will make for an limiting back.
In fitting the shoulder seams make sure
that the part of the seam next the collar
is pulled as tight as well may be without
producing wrinkles or discomfort. IL the
blouse be loose at this point, not "all the
kings horses, nor all the kings men" can
make the collar set as 1t ought to do.
The underarm seam must, II 1t Is to fol-
low the newest mode, slope well towards
the front instead of toward the back, as
most of the ready-mades do. The back
piece, too, must display quite a semi
circle In outline where 1t joins to the
front piece. DO not be afraid to pull this
In as closely TO the figure as 1t Will stand,
for the tackled down tucks and pleats pro-
yided In the center front will afford sufh-
Client fulness.
In basting In the sleeve for trying on,
tuck it with the front arm seam about
two TO two and half inches forward
from the underarm blouse seam. Then try
IL on, swing the arm freely around and
lift the hands up to the head. Any fault
in adjustment will thus declare Itself aud
may be remedied instantly.
In putting on the collar never full the
collar to the blouse, but work on the op-
posite principle. Hold the collar tight and
case the blouse ever SO slightly into the
collar or band, whichever you elect to use.
At no point, however, must the blouse be
made SO full that It wrinkles below the
collar, and IL such ensues. then the shout
der seams must be drawn up trine. so
that the blouse fits snugly, but easily Into

er. What's the good of a woman's edu-
cation, anyhow, II 1t does not teach her
to sew"
The moral of which is that the woman
of good education and bringing up Is to-
woman. 1t is stated upon good authority
that the daughters In the Rockefeller
family, said to be the richest on this
continent, studied dressmaking from the
practical side and are competent not
only to design, but also to cut fit and
finish their own gowns whenever the
within to do so may take them.
All of which, though seemingly indi-
rect. Is really pertinent to the para
graph at the head of this article.
With the extreme of elaboration that
is layished upon the separate fancy
blouses that are the fad OF the moment,
the woman of moderate purse but good
social connections is liable to find her
wardrobe sadly deficient In the smart lit
tie nothings- at-all that are really the
firmest foundation upon which the pass
inc mode is built. To her a half dozen
fancy blouses at eighty and hundred
dollars apiece are impossible, although
this is by no means an uncommon price
now. But let her examine those same
dainty little corrections closely, ana she
will see the why and the wherefore OF
their costlness. 1t Is all In the design
and the needlework-and in this last WORD
the whole secret Is told. The needlework-

In order to clear their counters of goods
that have had their run among the ex-
clusives of the fashionable set.
And apropos Of decolette gowns. 1t Is
to be noted that their vogue Is increasing
wonderfully. For home dinners even the
least fashionable matron manages to
omit the chemisette or plastron from her
afternoon gown and to keep In touch
with the latest trend of fashion. For
Southern resort hotel dinnlng rooms the
woman in a hlgh-necked stuff gown will
find herself rather lonesome around din

all display some attempt at decolietage,

In models recently received from Paris

directorate was in force In France ana
citizen was the only title permitted to
the good republican population. Although
not exactly following this historic style
in all its accuracy OF detail, the charming
coat illustrated presents the main fea-
tures of that mode Of dress. A pretty
oyster shade of white cloth Is cleyerly
contrasted with maroon or chestnut
brown, The white is a chiffon broad
cloth, while the brown Is one of those
novel satin cloths that present satin
surface and cloth back. The plain coat
sleeve and the deep shoulder cape are es-
sential points of directoire style, while
the long back, with the fronts rounding
up to knee depth, adds piquant point OF
novelty. The lingerie gown is built after

back slip the blouse on, fasten II and then

That these fetching little jacket bodices
extend below the waistllne makes the 1T
