materials to put one at ones ease.
Where there is no comfort on the trav-

English materials there are also few

to catch the dust. and the trimming

The picture shows two rosettes. with
long, hanging ends. placed above the
waist line in the middle of the back.
Other sashes have short ends sewn to
the middle of the back above the waist
line. Sometimes two embroidered bands
are allowed to fall straight from the
waist. where they are held nat by heavy
fringe. This is favorite fashion for
older women, and 1t is extremely beau
