was in olive panama and instead of
the border fold of goods was ap-
piled with rows of stitching and fine
applied in braid and the same idea
carried out in the waist and collar
and cuffs and belt.
tunic skirt and waist was made
from bordered goods in wool and
silk challis in heliotrope. The five
gored foundation skirt of this de-
sign is heightened by circular
| flounce, over which is draped four
piece tunic of overskirt. A vent is
allowed at the front and the side
seams of the tunic. the edges of
which are connected by straps of the
border, and the edges of the over
skirt are edged with the border. The
overblouse laps in double-breastied
style like a surplice waist and is fin
ished with bands of the border. The
sleeves are short and full and slash

bordering. The V outline extends
almost to the waist line. The under
blouse is of lace.
The tunic mode is used for the
shawl patterns now so well liked for
gowns These shawls come in five
pieces oblong in shape enough for
gown and the contrasting square at
the end of each square is used for
the points of the tunic points. One
square makes a point of the tunic

of the wide girdle. Another develop

strap.
Many of the ginshams are shown
with borders and its adaptability is
eXampled in the trotteur skirt and
bolero waist. or jumper, or over
blouse. A plain and border ging
ham was deftly arranged in using the
gingham on the crosswise of the
goods instead of the lengthwise cut,
the fulness at the top being disposed
of in cores and small plaits and let
ting the material fall in its natural
lines. The waist was of white mus
lin with straps or rather folds of the
border over the shoulders and the
girdle was of the same. The colors
used We're slate grey edged with
stripes of white and lighter grey and
narrow lines of black. A dash of
color was introduced in the muslin
waist in the collar and cuffs where
embroidered dots in red made IA
bright finish
A second gingham was in pink
having a scroll design in white and

narrow panels that alterated 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.
