TO set the color by soaking in salt and
water for time before washing. This

There Is a perfect craze for big headed
pins In millinery this season, Not only
are the hats provided with these pins as
ornaments, but the two or three hatp!ns
required to adjust the chapeau at its
proper uncertain angle are also OF enor

Monotone Costumes.

The range OF artistic and beautiful eff
fects in costumes for dressy wear con-
tinnes to widen with each succeeding day.
Incoming steamers bear their precious
burdens of new ideas from the greatest
fashion artists of the world, and Ameri-
can designers put forth models which
would do credit to the presiding genius
of Partisan atelier. While there are
many new and novel details, the general
idea remains much the same as we have
seen II since the appearance of the first
importations of the early spring. The
japanese tendency Is everywhere, and the
Jumper appears In new and attractive
variations which but serve to add to It's
popularity.
The three pece-suit idea is very strong
In these later models. 1t Is q mode
which has solved puzzling dress problems
for many women this season. The three
piece costume Is really two costumes in
one. First, it is dressy house frock.
suitable for any occasion calling for a
semidressy toilet. and with the addition
of the little coat it becomes fetching
street costume for afternoon and Informal
evening wear. Occasionally the effect Is
varied by the substitution OF dainty
lingerie or net blouse for the costume
bodice
The coats of these suits are really their
most charming feature. being that part
upon which Is lay!shed practically all OF
the trimming. as the skirt Is usually
quite plain and the bodice smart but
simple. No frllls or furbeows to mar the
tit of the coat are permissible on the
bodice. An example of these features Is
