CUFFS FOR ELBOW SLEEVES.
Accessory That Promises to Make
for Comfort During the Hot
Days of Summer.

The dressmakers continue to insist
on the long close-fitting sleeve and the
woman who dotes on comfort is in
despair. Anything more unpleasant
than the process Of peeling off long
tight sleeve, inch by inch. when one
comes home on hot day can scarcely
be imagined A glimmer of light,
however. appears on the sleeve hori-
zon in the form of cool little transpar-
ent cuffs set into the lower end of the
sleeve. Sometimes these cuffs are OF
Irish lace, sometimes of very sheer
batiste. tucked or prettily embroidered
by hand. They are simply basted into
the sleeve and may be removed when
Numbered. The sleeve itself is. of
course. cut of several inches above
the wrist, and as the little cuff opens
up its outer edge with buttons and
loops. there is enough roominess OBJ
tainable to push the sleeve upward on
very warm days.
