blame the 'beastly low thing for the
consequent sore throat. Still, fragile fem

Here is an instance of this inconsist-
ency. Sitting opp posite me in a 9Th avenue
motor bus the other morning, which, by
the way. was a blustery. st. Patrick's
sort of day, was a pretty girl Of the ''nau-
seatingly rich class wearing ecru
lace blouse. the neck of which was cut
almost slOw enough for an evening frock.
The collar of her smart sealslSn coat, to
be sure, was turned up in the back for
protection. but a string of pearls was the
only safeguard vouchsafed her throat in
front. She seemed perfectly comfortable
and oblivious of the fact that every other
woman in that bus had her neck swathed
in ruches and collars up to her ears.
In these Dutch collars there are two
extreme models from which to select
those of the finest lingerie material
exquisitely embroidered and lace trim
med and the collar in soft, heavy linen
either heavily embroidered or adorned
with an openwork design. and If lace
be a component part it appears in
substantial variety of cluny or Irish.
Among the illustrations you will find
a dainty low collar of fine sheer hand
kerchief linen trimmed with wide Irish
crochet lace, above which is a row of
embroidered dots. A jabot of the linen.
lace trimmed, holds the collar in front
in becoming fashion.

a young face than to have lined coun-

NECKWEAR MUST NEVER BE NEGLECTED.

It is rather disturbing news for the
woman who revels in the becoming
and practical high, rundown collar of
linen or lace to hear that although
still worm it is not the latest decree of
fashion. But where heavy linen col.
lar is required a straight embroidered
affair fastening in the back Is now
much smarter to wear than the old
rundown model. And for the severely
tailored girl there is high stock col

stocks as the ingenuity of the makers
can invent. All are absurdly expensive
to buy, but a girl clever with her en-
broidery needle may have at small

elects. One may gain good idea of

Some of the straw toQues designed for
shirt waist and other practical accompa-
niment depend largely, too, on a fanciful
weaving and massing Of the straw for
ornament. One very effective straw
hat seen for shirt waist use had a
puff crown dented in oddly here and

There is one very important requirement
for brim hats. They must droop some

pretty girls go by with bowl" or mush-

mushroom or a carefully chosen turban

practical and smart street use. With
any color or material the little vest
which overlies. the tucked white guimpes
should be of black satin as here, for
while not quite as modish as formerly for
entire gowns. black is still an emphasiz-

Finally, let me draw your attention to
the tightness of all the sleeves. Make
your new sleeves like them and your old
