Ginghams With Borders

Many of the ginghams are shown
with borders and it's adaptability is
exampled in the trotteur skirt and
bolero waist, or jumper, or over the
blouse. A plain and border bingham
was deftly arranged in using the
bingham on the crosswise of the goods
instead of the lengthwise cut, the full
ness at the top being disposed of in
cores and small plaits and letting the
material fall in its natural lines. The
waist was of white muslin with
straps or rather folds of the border
over the shoulders and the girdle was
of the same The colors of white and
lighter grey and narrow lines of
black A dash of color was introduce
ed in the muslin waist in the collar
and cuffs where embroidered dots in
red made a bright finish.
A second Bingham was in pink hav-
ing a scroll design in white and which
was wide enough to make the narrow
panels that alternated with the
plaits of the plain goods. The over
blouse was laid in alternate tucks and
straps of the border. The sleeves were
finished with cuffs of the border
and the belt and collar.

COTTON RALLIED FROM
PREVIOUS Low POINT
Locally One Holder Sold at
Quoted Values.

Without any important bullish de-
velopments, the cotton market yes
terday recovered a part of the losses
of the day before. In some quarters
it was thought that the attack of
the previous day had been slightly
overdone, and the selling tendency
was decidedly restricted. The open
ing was l to points lower, follow
ing slump in the Liverpool market,
but an improvement on that side at
the close strengthened American
futures. The greatest Improvement
was shown in the afternoon, the
net gain for the day being to
points, the near positions leading.
New York opened 1 to 6 points
lower, the opening being the bottom
for the session. Trading was not
very active, but the market had
firm undertone. Prices were at
the best at the close, which was 5
to points above the final for the
day before. Spots were advanced 10
points. New Orleans opened to
points lower, and closed at the high
est, 2 to points above the last for
Tuesday Spot quotations for mid
ding were unchanged at 10 3-Sc.
Liverpool opened 2 to points
down, and at the early afternoon call
had lost more than that much more.
At the last the market grew better,
the close being steady, 3 to 5 points
below the last for Tuesday The
market is due 1 IL to 2 IL points
higher this morning. Spots were 10
points lower, the sales being 1000
bales.
In the local spot market sales of
over 100 bales were made on a basis
of 10 cents for good middling. The
cotton sold belonged to one producer,
though scattered with a number of
factors. At the same price cotton
could have been sold freely, but no
more was Offering. Quotations are

White Linen Suit

A white linen having a coral Dor
der, done in wreaths and small designs
between, consisted of a kilt plated
skirt, the kits turning from the CEN
ter of the front The lower edge is
straight, measuring with the plaits
drawn out about five yards in the
medium sizes. 1t is clearing length
and the straight lower edge makes 1t
adaptable to bordered goods The
blouse waist had a becoming arrange
ment of wide and short tucks on the
shoulders with a plain space in the
center which is supplied from the
bordered goods. The collar and cuffs
are also of the border goods and the
belt, which is mounted on a heavier
linen, and finished with mother-of-
pearl buckle.
A second development of this skirt
was in olive panama and instead OF
the border a fold of goods was applied
with rows of stitching and fine SOU
tache braid A design could be ap-
piled in braid and the same idea car
ried out in the waist and collar cuffs
and belt.
A tunic skirt and waist was made
from a bordered goods in wool and
silk challis in heliotrope. The five
gored foundation skirt of this design
is heightened by a circular flounce,
over which is draped four-piece tun-
ic or overskirt. A vent is allowed at
the front and the side seams of the
tunic, the edges of which are con-
nected by straps of the border; and
the edges of overskirt are edged with
the border. The overblouse laps
in double-breasted style like sur
plice waist and is finished with bands
of the border.
The sleeves are short and full and
slashed up the back and trimmed with
bordering The V outline extends al
most to the waist line. The under
blouse is of lace.

NEW YORK. April S.-one of the
noticeable features of the new sum-
| mer goods now in the markets are
those with borders. A few were used
last year, but it is now that their
possibilities are recognized and the
manufacturers have given us a
numberless variety, not only in the
hand painted nets and chiffons but in
the less expensive and simpler fab
RIGS
They may be found in linen, such
as a white ground with a coral bor-
der, brown grass linen with Per-
sian design, a gray muslin with a blue
with curved and striped lines in its
edge. Many of the cotton silks, so
called, have borders that represent
stencil designs, mulls have beautiful
Powered or foliage patterns and the
challis adapt themselves particularly
to such decoration The foulards, both
of the real and the cotton varieties
have handsome chevron borders.
Their use is applied equally to the
ornamentation of the skirt and the
waist, jumper straps, the outlines of
the overblouse, Japanese bands and
belts, panels folds and fiounces.
Trimmings are favorite places for
their application and they are the
potent aids of both the short and the
tall woman, the one using them in
vertical lines and the other in cross
wise fashion.
A foulard is always useful dress
and a late importation is a good eX-
ample of the use of the border. The
ground of the foulard was rich
green covered with a ring-dot in
white and a border of white lines
diagonal to each other, zigzag, like

PLY combines the good features of
both the plated and circular modes
1t consists of circular shaping, close
ly adjusted to the figure, while the
front and back cores are plated. The
closing is made at the left side of
the back gore. The chevron bands
are placed a few inches above the
lower edge and outlining the plated
cores. With other materials the
bands may be of lace or of the mater
ial with hand embroidery. The dress
is of clearing length The blouse waist
is very simple in it's construction, the
blouse portion being gathered to
yoke which may be of fine lace or
net embroidered with colored silk
matching the colors in the gown ma
terial Over the shoulders and at
the bottom of the yoke both front and
back are straps of the border, which
also forms the japanese bands over
the adjustment of the full sleeves that
end at the elbow and are gathered in
to cuffs of the bordered material. The
belt is of the border also.
