The "Jumnerv Gown

In the jumper" gowns are some
very pretty pink linen frocks which
are hand-embroidered in the same
shade of pink and are quite inexpen-
sive, considering the fact that they

linen and embroidered. These little
frocks may be had for $I5, but this
is the starting point only, for from
this figure the linen frccks begin to
go up and up until an almost pro-
l.bitite figure is reached.
