NEW YORK, Aug 4-One of the
very newest notes and one that shows
decided tendency to dominate the
late summer and autumn styles is that
known abroad as "Moyenage" some
times called Venetian or Renaissance
The truth is that it has been copied
from the styles worn in the middle
ages and adapted to the modern
American idea, while it's decorations
of lace and especially the heavy en-
broidery on the panels are distinctly
of the Venetian period.
One of the most suitable materials
for these gowns is Shantisette or
some of the silks on the Shantung silk
order, which is particularly fitted by
it's weight and texture as a back
ground for the ornamentation used
which is usually of rat cord.
The skirt is mounted on a deep
yoke with waistline very little above
the normal position, but many of these
"Moyenage" gowns of true to their
period and original model hang from
the shoulders, and the waist and
sleeves are cut in very similar fash
ion to the jumper waist but which is
beautifully fitted and carried down to
the lowest hip line and from there is
extended in 'front.' back and side PAN
els over an underskirt showing plaits
The top of the waist, and a bolero
effect just under the bust are covered
with design done in rat cord, the
edges of the panels are done in a
heavily braided pattern and on each is
a design whose pattern has been taken
from some old tapestry or picture.
The sleeves are distinctive of the pc
Rod and are long and close to the
middle Of the forearm; they are
slashed on the top of the upper arm
and cut to show a befrilled under
sleeve. The neck is also cut low and
in rounded shape to show the lace
frilled guimpe and collar.
A gown in pearl grey silk wolfe for
the under skirt, and grey Shantisette
for the outer dress and sleeves with
dainty cream chiffon, for the guimpe
and sleeves would make a very pretty
summer gown.
A few of these gowns show a dis
tinct line at the waist though by this
its main charm is lost. One of these
modified effects has a skirt whose up
per part to the knee was nothing more
than an even gored skirt below which
point was added a skirt plated in
groups and the panel effect was car
ried out from the knees down. The
waist joined to the skirt was surplice
effect with deliberately trimmed sleeves

There is a return to popularity of
the cOllarless coat with a long W
shaped effect, and the fit is rather
loose than the tight fitting coats that
once threatened us.
In sleeves there IS a pretty wide
latitude allowed as to length and in
trimming. Big sleeves there must not
be, but a glove fitting sleeve such as
some modistes were insisting upon
earlier in the season are not obligatory
and women who were looking for sum-
mer comfort would have none of it.
Coat sleeves are put in with little or
no fulness but a dress sleeve has Of
ten more than the dictates of fash
ion allow. The new sleeves are ex-
tremeiy smart without doubt, and it is
with dismay that women have heard
that the new sleeves will have puffs
below the elbow a style once popu-
lar but one that destroys the contour
of the arm and will make the most
trim waist look large.
In the latest waists the yokes are
small especially if made of white ma
terial and the most favored materials

be seen mostly on the summer wash
gowns retaining their popularity more
because of their GOODNESS than for

The thin high collar of net. lace or
silk will be worn with the tailored
suit. Smartness is the great desidera-
tum of women today and anything
that partakes of the negligee is not
smart no matter how many other
qualities it may have.
Among separate skirts We find in
silks many of the pongee weaves which
seem to be having vogue similar to
that once enjoyed by taffeta. Medua,

In the northern parts of the CONT
nent there are many days when a
dress of thin light weight and trans
parent cloth is essential to comfort
even in summer Dainty and fascinat-
ing as are the gowns of the very thin
order, those that possess some weight
are not only attractive but are neces-
sary to the completeness of the ward
robe. Wolfe is one of those fabrics
that make a most satisfactory summer
gown, for while they are quite trans
parent in themselves they must have a
lining of silk to hang well and the silk
gives all the warmth needed. while the
vole dress will be a welcome addi-
ton to the wardrobe in the autumn,
and make a good home dress for Win
ter. The all silk voiles are extreme
ly beautiful and are to be found in
both plain and figured varieties and
there are many beautiful patterns es-
pecially well-liked are the striped
sorts. A blue wolfe made over deep
shade of blue silk would make a most
fashionable gown both in fabric and

the leading colors of the season; there

Skirts may be short, medium. long
or en- train, just as. one pleases, and
according to the occasion for which
they are needed There is a decided
trend toward skirts more full at the
feet while still retaining the close-fit
about the hips. When the skirt is a
part of the coat and skirt suit, in
nearly every case they fasten in front
or on the side under fold of the ma
terial or blind flap. There is no mis-
take that by this means much better
shape can be procured and the skirt
made to fit we'll in the back. The

yesterday afternoon which caused

three houses and four barns were
burned and several houses were dam
