Pretty Garments for the Easier Bride

bands Of embroidery in Japanese design
The waist opens over a yoke and chem
isette Of lace and embroidery chiffon and is
cut in one piece with the shah sleeve.
There should be pink terra Gotta even
ing gown of ninon, with guimpe and
sleeves of light cream chantilly. One black
lace sequined robe has its occasions, and
it should have a girdle of pompadour silk
to brighten it.
Tucked away in their own compartments
are the Easter parasols, one for every
gown. Real lace covers the very best par
asoI, which is carried with a white lace
gown. Then there is one of Terra
d'Egypt," a delicate biscuit which is EN-
broidered and painted in a wreath Of
splashy flowers. A rose color parasol is a
billow of chiffon fiounces in pale mignonette
green, aud a black and white Of lace and
chiffon is stunning with a white linen suit
The embroidered linen parasols, which tub
so well, of course enter the wardrobe.
Every gown, from the simplest to the
wedding robe, is trimmed, for this is a
year Of trimmings. The novelties in COM
binatons use real lace with cords and
bead passementeries and mock Jewels
Wide braids in mohairs appear in many
patterns to suit every style and every
taste. Stitchery owes it's place on heavy
cloths, but for the hlmy textures the bride
has narrow braids trimmed with spangles
and paste Jewels.
The long glove is still here to keep pace
with the short sleeve. However the fash
ionables of Europe agreed to wear lace
sleeves or mittens to the wrist, which met
the short glove, for dinner occasions. Tho
lacey uppers gave the arm protection, and
at the same time are so pretty in their
own conceit that they will be likely to
supersede the fashion of turning gloves
back to the glove arm. The three-quarter
sleeve leads in all gowns

EN@F any misguided mortal labors
under the impression that the
vogue OF the separate blouse is
400 on the wane let him wander
through the shops and view the
provision which designers and merchants
have made for the satisfying Of womans
demand for that indispensable garment
Never was there greater variety in this
convenient garment and surely was there
never greater charm. The elaborate lin
gerie blouses are more dainty and beautiful
than those Of last season. II that IL possible.
The hand embroidery used lavishly upon
them is chiefly Of the very fine and delicate
Sind associated with dainty baby garments
and the whole tendency among the fine
waist Of the lingerie class seems to be
toward delicate effects rather than toward
bold and striking design
Valenciennes lace is stlll the prime IA
vorite for combination with the hand en-
broldery, but real cluny I'm very narrow
insertion is exceedingly popular for use
even upon the sheerest batste and hand
kerchief linen.
Some of the most charming models among
the simpler blouses make use OF no lace at
all, save perhaps narrow frill at collar
top and as a sleeve finish. One very sue
cessful little model which ls made both in
sheer waist batiste and in silk null Is upon
the Marie Antonette line with plated
frills down the center front and finely
tucked shoulders.
The front frills have their edges cut in
deep pointed scallops and then embroi-
dered in tiny scallops with silk OF soft blue
or green or brown or rose. Little en-
broidered green dots are set in these seal
lops and form a border to the frilis
The close high collar is finely tucked
and embroidered to match the frill and
little lingerie bow embroidered in the same
fashion is set at the head OF the frill
The sleeves are rather full and reach
well below the elbow, being finished with
an embroidered turn-back Gun. A cluster
Of very tiny, horizontal tucks, along the in
side seam adds to the shapeliness Of this
sleeve model

and almost az charming as other models

cuffs embroidered simply in little scallops

An embroidered stock of Persian lawn,
with a trig little bow with lace edges is
worn~with the going-away gown.
If she is bound on a motor tour, she has
a white flannel striped tailored skirt and
coat with a silk blouse TO match her blue
stripe. over this goes the satin rainproof
cloth coat with a rolled collar and box
plated back. A Priscilla hood of the same
material as the coat completes protecting
garb until the first stopping place, when
the bridal going away suit Of white flannel
striped with blue may give way to rust
color in a serviceable cloth.
The bridal lingerie will be the finest In
quality and design. The svelt figure has
reduced underneaths to a minimum. The
silk drop skirt is the only skirt under thin
materials and the jupe pantalon or divided
skirt Of soft satin under thick cloths
The new made corsets, so deep on the
hips, support the jupe pantalon, which is
buttoned fast All corsets are trimmed
around the top with rows upon rows Of
lace or quillings Of soft ribbon, which hides
the corset line. The new "corset-cache-
corset" with which no slip is necessary, is
carried up to the shoulders, where front
and back meet with a narrow strip of lace
or ribbon A bertha of lace finishes it at
the top and the high bust is hidden under
a fall of lace.
The Easter brides combination suits of
fine lawn, lace trimmed; dozen lingerie
petticoats and night dresses, the tops of
which are a mass of lace and embroidery,
with dainty breakfast Jackets of lace and
ribbon. and lingerie negligee of dotted
swiss with many ribbon streamers. are
carried along on the honeymoon tour.

White satin remains the leading mate

The bridesmaids will wear gauze, chiffon,

bodces will have the new peerine fronts

bon ending on the left side in roses OF

S Many a woman has foregone in

the light that we need as the sunshine

shine yellow should be our choice, Not
only should we have yellow on the walls
but also on the ceiling for the sake Of the
reflection. A pretty treatment is to have a
light pumpkin yellow on the walls as far
as the picture holding and a lighter shade
above this and on the ceiling. Then yellow
silk sash curtains pulled back, tend TO
make a room sunny.

Catastrophe in a Church.

THE most embarrassing thing that ever
happened TO me-" said Mrs Peters when the
Ibsen club was exchanging narrowing ex-
periences, quoted by Youths Companion,
happened, of course, in church while 1
was wearing black for my father-inlaw.
I was leaning forward during prayer one
morning, when my. new heavily trimmed
hat fell off, dropped to the floor of the
pew ahead and rolled out of sight
Fortunately, had an umbrella. Getting
down as fiat as l could I reached under
the ncxt pew, reached out with the UNI
brella handle and fished about for my hat.
When my hand finally touched it I knelt
in my place, closed my eyes-I suppose l
reasoned as an ostrich does, that II I could
see nobody nobody could see me-and tried
to look as devout as If my mind had never
been off the service.

pinned that wretched hat in place, using
a hairpin because the hatpin was missing
and feeling quite proud or myself to think
that had managed the affair so well.
when we stood up for the last hymn
I suddenly became conscious that all the
women in the congregation were staring
at me and trying hard not to smile. The
moment l got outside I took that hat off
and looked at 1t. My dears, It wasn't my
hat at ALL l had helped myself to little
