SOME PRETTY DRESS DESIGNS
5raldins In Certain Cases More Effee-
tive Than EmbroIdery-Trimming
for Hat and Froek.

Braiding is more effective on black
diagonal than embroidery. II you are
not tall, good idea would be to edge
the square yoke in the back with q
band of the goods braided in black
soutache and bring this band over
the shoulders, down the sides Of the
yoke and from there to the hem Of
the gown in a continuous line. The
neck could be filed with metallic oc-
tagon net, backed with its own color
or white, while the top Of the panel
could be edged with a strip of satin
(black). the lower edge slightly
pointed.
This may display piece Of your
handiwork in embroidery worked In
metal thread, and if you wish. e
little colored silk Also
Again braided motif may be ap-
piled to the satin, which may be fur
ther embeIllshed by adding fancy
stitches or an outline in threads Of'the
desired coloring.
II you trim your hat with blue,
probably you will like to decorate the
irock with the same shade. Oriental
colors, however. will harmonize If you
care to use these effects.
Beaver, fur, silk and satin are all
appropriate coverings. For trimming
use the plume only, starting 1t under
handsome cabochon or rose made
from a metallic fabric.
A large cabochon may be used, and
flower in dull silver or oxidized will
be generally harmonious.
= Too much trimming Is mistake.

ADHESIVE TAPE FOR LAcEs
It's Use Preferable to Sewing Motif
Pleces-6eware Of the Imitation
Irish Lace.


Irish Lace.
Few people realize all the uses to
which one can put adhesive tape. In
appliqueing motif on lace or not 1t is
much more efficacious and labor saw
ing to use the tape than to sew the
pieces on separately. A little bit laid
under each motif and pressed with a
hot iron lasts the lifetime of the gown.
Instead Of hemming velvet or sew
ing It on hat brims 1t Is much bet
ter to glue It by placing the tape In
the fold of the goods and pressing 1t
against the rim.
Beware of limitations" Is an old
cry with an ever new Interpretation.
This time it is a warning against the
hand-crocheted Irish lace that is ma
chine made. The manufacturers have
found way of making yards and
yards Of the chain-stitch, crisscross on
muslin, to resemble the background Of
the Irish lace. This muslin, having
been dipped into sulphuric acid, Is
burned away in the oven. and 10, there
Is the lace foundation. On this are
pasted the motifs with adhesive tape,
