COTTON

To the wc:ae: With the small dress
allowance there is a roster prospect
than ever and II Is embodied In the
pretty cotton limitations Of foulard.
There's a softness OF fabric and a
clearness Of design and, too, an ex-
cellence of pattern that places them
very nearly on a par with silk itself.
1t is quite possible to so trim the cot
ton foulard with good linen lace or with
folded bias linen OF a plain color that
1t will serve h purpose of a foulard,
and there is no objection to doing this
II there be 10 tawdriness in the design
and ornamentation. For instance, Ii
would be an evidence OF poor taste to
put rich lace or satin epon the cotton
foulard and to make If IL a copy OF
some fancy paniered model suited only
to chiffon, satin or foulard.
There Is everything in keeping the
simple frock appropriate.

RAEElA

Many OF the new hats In the looser
weaves OF straw are being trimmed
very effectively in colored raffia and
velvet flowers, the raffia being covered
with net of the same shade and ar
ranged like a scarf. Raffia comes in
nearly 25 shades, and where an un-
usual color must be matched, the white
or natural color can often be dyed to
the exact tint. One girl tried for days
TO stain exactly q rather bright blue
raffa, and after failing with all sorts
Of paints and dyes succeeded by dip
ping the natural colored grass into or
binary washing blue.
With the help of raffa and net very
modish hats. indeed, can be trimmed
entirely at home. for even the velvet
flowers a be made with practice by
the amateur. Often the raffa and net
will match the straw of the hat, with
the flowers In another shade or in black
or white. The variations are endless,
and all are pretty.

Such beautiful artificial flowers are

The Dutch neck seems to hold its own
despite what the dressmakers and the
fashion scribes say about its unbecoming-
ness to the average woman. The fact is
that every woman loves herself in a,
Dutch neck and II she cannot convince
herself that in IT she is beautiful, she is
certain that the, effect is at least artistic
and picturesque. The roundabout bodice,
is moreover, so delightfully."- comfortable
that 1t is not to be wondered at that
women cling to it affectionately; and these
Dutch necks promise to be in favor all
winter-if the new neckwear is taken as an
augury.
The new neckwear is so pretty that one
scarcely knows where to begin to describe
It. Frills there are galore, but these. are
made Of softest materials like mulls and
Persian chiffons and lie so flatly on the
material of the bodice that they do not
destroy the graceful lines of throat and
shoulder. There are little square embroid-
cred collars with pleated lace frills all
around; and there are little Irish lace
round collars, with peated null frills all
around. Sometimes there are two overlap
ping pleated frills set on the same lace
collar.
And, always there is some sort of pretty
little bow set at the front of collar or
frill; and always there are dainty cuffs
to match the collar exactly. This collar
and cuff combination is the smartest no
ton of fall costumes; and often very
simple little frocks indeed are lifted to
distinction by a handsome set of lingerie
collar and cuffs. The cuffs may be worn
at the wrist, or below the cuff on the
shorter sleeve, and in the laundering they
ars-just a thought sitter than the very
soft collar. Hand-embroidered collars with
cluny lace edges are matched by these
smart turnback cuffs, and sometimes when
there is a little bow of black velvet at
the meeting of the collar, there are also
similar bows on the cuffs.
A set Of mourning neckwear that is ex-
ceedingly chic shows these little bows; the
collar and cuffs being made of white net
trimmed with a border of black silk ribbon
and then pleated, and the little bows
being of the black ribbon. Another very
smart mourning set has a Dutch collar
and turned back cuffs made of heavy white
net the deep hens forming a double layer
of the net around the edge. This sci
is not pleated but fits daintily over The

When Miss True first went to the Po-

sent to rule them. They did not propose
to have any such thing, so they called a
council Of war about week after she got
there to devise ways and means of getting
rid Of her.
