a LII Paris seems to have adopted
"a pongee as the material for sum-
mer dresses. although never De-
fore has it been very popular
among the Parisians. They have always
preferred their light cheviots and sol
serges but now it is pongee for shi9'-
waist suits and jumper dresses. 1he'

America do not-that rongee never can
be dressy. that it Is charming ~;

other purposes it is inappropriate

shades. though the natural color and

The Fashions in
Sleeves

THE fashion in sleeves is always
q matter Of interest, for In no
other detail Of the costume Is
there such variety. The word has gone
forth this season that they are to be Of
all shapes. all sizsj. and called by all
names: but. after all. the collection
shown proves that while they are made
comparatively full. they are not large
and that for women past their hrst
youth they may be lifted with an addi-
tional cuff OF lace or net. For the
maiden and those SO young that time
has not yet left mark upon elbows
or forearms. the half sleeve Is the thing.
The thIee-Quarter sleeve is, Of course.
q matter of taste. but in some styles it
but not too many. at the shoulder. while
pleats, once SO popular, have gone en-
tirely out OF fashion.
The broadcloth sleeve with the. small
net cum Is chiefly remarkable for Its
artistic braiding and for an elderly
woman no style could be better. The
same description applies to the broad
the a sSa caad
sleeve with the strap of velvet which
holds the oversleeve IN place il suitable
for q semi-dressy coat
A good style Is that with the long

low the elbow. while che oversleeve Of
pongee shows the Cross NrinkIeS-a fea-
ture OF the season.
A satin sleeve is finished at Shout
der and cuff with lace, and its main
beauty lies in the strapped lace at the
top. Still another sleeve of satin Is
finished in points. which fasten over
an undersleeve Of hlet lace: this is quite
remarkable style and ane that is most
becoming on a dress trimmed with lace,
for 1t gives the kimono shoulder without
the annoyance Of SO much fulness and
PROVIDES a graceful way OF finishing inc
lower part OF The sleeve.
"A fascinating style for a net waist Is

but In the cut and in that alone. indi.
yidual taste may have full play: the
woman who prefers a weight OF en-
broidery and trimming may indulge her
desire as much as she likes. while the
womsn VINO admires simplicity may
acorn her sleeves only with bands and
wrinkles.

NARROWER skirts are undoubtedly
~ the rage. and Paris sends word that
some skirts measure only two yards
around. One skirt was arranged 50
that in front there were two lacers to
be tied round the ankles. This sounds
very ultra; such skinny garments
could be becoming only to graceful
and youthful figures

THE very latest wells imported from
i cher Paris are shaped so that they
are quite long over the face and be-
come very narrow as they near the
sides. 80 that thu y are easily tied or

These are made with huge chenille
dots. and come in every color of the
rainbow; sometimes they are edged
with little ruchings of real lace. Need
less to say. their price 10 fabulous.
A charming novelty in wells is one
having a pattern made OF narrow
baby ribbon or tiny soutache braid.

haps when skilfully arranged 1t -

FLOWERS are more the rage than
i ever. whether real or artificial. and
they are worn N punches on the blouse
or tucked in the buttonhole Of the jacket.
OF course. now that Dame Fashion has
decreed that one may wear silken now
ers as well as those created by Mother
Nature. 1t Is not particularly expensive
to keep on hand a stock Of orchids. gar
denias. azaleas and poinsettias. and
these are the ones that are most
popular. When natural flowers can be
worn they are. Of course. preferable.
but the limitations are now SO perfect
that very little difference can be mo-
ticed unless the delicious fragrance II
missed. This is sometimes supplied by
q good perfume. Strange to say. this
epring many women are wearing au-
tumn leaves instead Of flowers. which
really does seem slightly out OF season.

AS Seen in the
Shops
HE little accessories undoubt-
eddy go far to make a suitable,
and attractive costume. ands

ana attractive cos'uiue' o"
of late years there have
been no more important details thai
stockings. For a while milady wore
only plain Isle thread: then she gradu-
slly began to wear gauzy silken hose.
and II was not very long before lace
ones appeared. Having gone through all
the styles in texture. it was then neces-
sarv to change the color Of the stock
ings. and, she began to wear stockings
to match her dress. with shoes of an en-.
tirely. different color-which was not
particularly attractive. The latest idea Is
TO wear silk stockings to match the cos
tune. with shoes to match the stockings
or of the conventional patent leather.
