Tucked BIonse.

The dressy blouse that can be.
closed at the front is a genuine boon,
and this one is charming and attract
i've, while 1t includes that feature.
In the illustration it is made from
one of the new French crepes with
embroidered dots, and the trimming
is embroidered banding, in which but
tonholes are worked that allow of
passing the ribbon scarf in and out
wasting, to the odd blouse and to the
gown, and is exceedingly charming
apart from the material chosen. The
trimming illustrated is effective, and
among the novelties of the season, but
not obligatory, for the band on the
front could be embroidered by hand
or trimmed in any way that fancy
may suggest. Crepey materials will
be extensively used this season, and
have the merit OF requiring no starch
nor iron, but there are just as many
of the lawns, batistes and other ia
miliar waistings seen as ever.
The blouse is made with the fronts
lines, and is closed invisibly at the
centre front. The sleeves are pointed
over the hands and are SO shaped that
they cling to the arms, taking their
form perfectly, and are graceful in
the extreme.

Long Gloves ont.

Even if an evening gown has only
jeweied band across the arm for a
sleeve the white glove just turns the
elbow. The glove that reaches to the
top Of the arm is out Of style. Shops
insist upon selling them, and it is
hard to find the especial length which
reaches about an inch abovethe elbow.
There are hundreds Of those that
come Just below; others that reach to
the tiny sleeve; neither is correct, as
the new glove just covers the elbow
and leaves the top Of the arm bare.
