that if a woman takes up the fad of
wearing nothing but white she can this
year have a remarkable variety. The
latest information from the headquarters
of dress is somewhat disconcerting for
any one who is fond of light and bright
shades of color, for unless one of the
shades of white" or vivid light blue be
chosen there are presented for inspection
depressing number of dark colors from
which to make selection. A bright,
hard mauve is also put forward in the
effort to gain favor, but like all extremes
of style that appear in the beginning of
the season the process of moderation soon
eliminates the worst features, and if the
color is unbecoming or too hard 1t is
simply treated with such disdain that
others are substituted, and in the mean
time there is sufficient choice among
the old-time favorites to enable any
woman to be becomingly attired.
Sleeves and Skirts Still Problems.
Sleeves and skirts are still problems for

n cloth gown is the only thing to wear
There are new cloths of such fine tex
hlre that, while possessing the desired
quality of warmth, at the same time are
so light In weight that they are quite
suitable for summer. Lined with the
thinnest of silks and made with unlined
yoke and sleeves, they are really as cool
as wolfe gown lined with taffeta. The
one-piece gown is the smartest model
made on the princess lines, but with more
fulness in the skirt than was fashionable
six weeks ago. Then there are fasci-
mating loose coats to be worn with these
gowns. The cloth, always of the finest
texture and lined with the softest of
silk, makes an ideal garment to slip on
over the gown if any protection be needed
The double skirt, or tunic effect, is also
popular for the cloth gown, and white
or the lightest shades of color are to be
noticed in the newest and smartest gowns
turned out on this order. Under the
term white" are many shades of ex-
tremely light gray, tan and yellow, so

est fashion. The introduction of pleats
at the sides, the back and the front OF
many of the models seems to presage
revolution of style. As for the correct
length of sleeve there is no one bold
enough to assert that any stated length
is the only one. Large sleeves look
old fashioned. that is a fact, but the
glove fitting sleeve is not obligatory. Coat
sleeves are as small as possible, with Il"
fulness at the top, but many of the dress
sleeves are put in with fulness, and the
sleeve below the elbow IS obligatory from
a late fashion standpoint, but not neces-
sarily must it be long. The new sleeves
are extremely smart and becoming
and are not in any way exaggerated, but
one fashion that is threatened will strike
dismay to the hearts of the majority OF
womankind, the bishop sleeve effect, with
the full puff below the elbow. This puff
or pouch as it might more correctly be
termed, effectually hides any beauty of
line or contour of the arm, and it is to be
hoped it will never be approved.
