DAINTY IDEA IN LINGERIE
Combination Garment of Corset Cover
and Drawers Both Useful and
Practical.

Among the bargains in lingerie to
be found in the shops just now Is a
combination garment of corset cover
and drawers that is both dainty and
practical The material Is soft main
sock, sheer but firm, neatly fashioned,
with neck and sleeves edged with seal
loped embroidery and the drawers
finished with a ruff1e Of scalloped en-
broidery.
A pretty waist Of dressy description,
though by no means elaborate, Is Of
cable net, black, made over founda-
ton Of Japanese silk. Tucks of the
net alternating with bands Of black
silk trim the waist lengthwise.
Tucks, headed by the silk bands,
run around the arms and the long,
close-ftting cuffs are trimmed pref
tily with the elk.
An accordion pleated ruf1e (gradu-
ated) finishes the front.
This Is an especially good model
for an elderly woman, and one that
will be serviceable for many occa-
sions.

Ing new suit, he was obliged to take
the material to the village tailoress.
She took his measurements, and when
she cut the coat, made a liberal al
lowance on each seam
The mans dislike of women in gen.
eral prevented his having a fitting.
He took the finished garment without
trying 1t on. 1t was much too large.
and his disgust was apparent in the
answer he made to the friendly loafer
on his first visit to the post office.

THE NEW HOME

each side of us and In front upon the
street where our lane ends. We
therefore had to send osoba to the
and left, and to the three houses in
front of us, and also to the agent from
whom the house Is rented. We stopped
at the osoba shop on our way back
from shopping. They told us that ele-
CANT custom demanded that we should
send three pieces" (three square
wooden trays piled one upon the other
with wooden cover on top of all) to
each house. 1t was possible to satisfy
by sending those which cost three
sen 01a cents) apiece, but If we were
willing to pay the extra price, they
could send osoba at seven sen apiece
which would delight the neighborhood.
We ordered the best sent, and that an
extra outfit of four pieces" should be
delivered at our house SO that the
cooks heart and stomach might be
gratified, and that we ourselves might
have a chance to see what 1t is like.
1t was promptly delivered, and we
found that OSOba is very slender

houses, accompanied by plenty Of
sauce or soy. Within the next "a
hours each and all of the favored neigh
bors and the renting agent made their
formal acknowledgment and thanks to
the newcomers.
Thus we moved into our new home.
At first everything was in charge Of
the old cook. His wife, who was to be
also in our employ, did not come for
several days. as she was completing a
term of service elsewhere. The old
man took good care Of us. and long

Tokyo-1t may be true enough that
the Japanese lead "the simple life" 1t
is, however, no easy matter for the
foreigner to adjust himself to it's sim
plicity. 1t has taken us, in fact, three
weeks to do so.
Our desire to be within easy reach
Of Asakusa rendered the securing Of
a house somewhat difficult. Friends
insisted that neither in Asakusa itself
nor in the neighborhood of Uyeno
park were sanitary conditions of the
best. They said that the neighbor-
hood of the university, high and well
drained, was the nearest to be con-
sidered. But houses in that neighbor-
hood are not easy to secure. Not in
frequently people wait for months be-
fore satisfactory one is to be had.
But my friend Nagaf's sisters hus-
band, living in that district, offered to
do his best to find a place for us.
Meantime we stayed at our little Hotel
Kunikoniya, where everything was
comfortable and purely of the country
Finally word came from Hasegawa
that house was ready for our inspec-
ton. The first impression was unfa-
yorable. The house was much smaller
than We desired and the space avail
able for gardening connected with it
limited. Anxious, however, to make
our settlement as soon as possible, we
agreed to take it. 1t improved upon
acquaintance, and little experience
almost seemed to show that it had
been constructed with reference to our
needs.
Mr.. Nagai and his sister were good
enough to go shopping with us. Of
course we bought no European articles,
and our purchases included only ar
ticles Of immediate and pressing need.
We have two sets of tables, one for
ordinary use, the other for occasions

brown wood traps foot or SO square
and raised eight inches high above
the floor. Each person of course has
his own table. so our common outfit
cares for ourselves and a single guest.
The other set consists Of five square
black lacquered trays, which set di-
rectly on the floor. Five seems to be
the definite number which the Japa-
nese consider suitable for q social Oc-
casion-and food trays. tea cups, lac
quered bowls, and all such things are
regularly made up in sets of five.
Plenty of these in variety and chop

In addition to the things necessary
for meals, there was the tea outfit of
a teapot, hot water kettle, waste bowl
and five cups 1t is necessary in
Japanese households to serve tea to
every guest who may drop in on the
most casual errand. Then there was
of course the tabaco bon, with it's
burning charcoal and bamboo spittoon,

us, and was left entirely to the cook

A DAINTY bit of embroidery to pick
n up at odd moments is a little
white apron for sewing, chatting
dish, or afternoon tea wear. These are
not meant for real utility, these wisps
of lace and muslin-they are merely
delightfully."- feminine little creations
which women like to don, especially
when they stir things up with spoon
In the popular chatting dish. Then, too,
they do protect the gown little, espe-
cially light summary one.
The apron must above all else be
the last word in fneness and exquis-
lte daintiness-even though very
simple the materials must be fine
Hand embroidered aprons are the
prettiest models In the whole apron
family, and any girl or woman who
knows how to embroider should lose
no time in adding one of these at
tractive trifles to her summer outfit
or make one or two for the coming
winter.
The apron sketched is a becoming
shape, and easily made. The three
panels are joined by strips of lace and
edged with a frill Of valenciennes
The belt is of fine lace beading
through which a blue Or pink satin
ribbon is run, which forms the strings
to tie the apron.

The material may be fine handker-

the design side up, place the fabric
over it, and pin firmly in each corner.
The design will show through the
