Dress and Height

THERE is woman whom I see in
the cars daily who has never
learned that dress and appear
ance are at all correlated. She is a
short, stout little body, and by the
time she has completed her toilet she
looks like a walking balloon. Her
coats are always puffed as to sleeve
and padded as to shoulder; her shirt
waists blouse; she wears wide bows at
her neck and on her hat; her shoes
have broad, round points. and her light
gloves make her hands look larger
1t takes more than a regard for the
direction in which a stripe runs to
overcome a tendency to undue length
or shortness. My friends costume
would be ideal for the animated beam
pole. But she herself should dress Sc
verely. III simple, straight lines; her
hats should be high, with erect p1umes
or ribbons; her gloves should be dark.
her shoes pointed. her clothing in gem
era1 tight fitting.
And if only all women abnormal in
either direction as to height or weight
would observe the same principles!

Patent Leather Belts

NTANT of the new lingerie dress @
Vt models show patent-leather belts
AsA instead of the embroloereo
ones that might be expected. Perhaps
this IS the forerunner of a return 10
the tailored, ante-frilling styles; at
any rate, 1t is welcome news for the
maid whose patent-leather belts have
lain In idleaess or been dedicated 10
tennis these many seasons.
Mostly they are of black, but often
they are edged with white or COLOR
and really all shades are seen.
The buckles are nearly always square
and OF metal; the leather-covered
buckles are no more. They are large.
relatively speaking, and no tag end OF
leather protrudes beyond them; they
really 1asten the belt.
With fabric cross tags over tucked
vests, and rows of buttons with no
apparent reasons except prettiness for
being, the day OF the tailor-made. her.

leather belt. seems again to be dawn

Sometimes the f1let itself is embroid-
cred, as in the last model shown. The
blouse here is of colored batiSte or sheer
lawn, and is simply made, with round
neck with narrow ruffle and belled
sleeves. The beauty of the blouse lies
in the embroidered hlet forming the
cuffs and the yoke, which is continued
in strip down the front. The en-
broidery is done in solid satin stitch,
but in washable cotton the same color
as the blouse. A large SNOWY flower
pattern should be chosen.
All OF this work in flet can, as has
been said. be applied to tulle or net
also and any sheer material may be
used for the blouse. The filet can be
dyed. and touch of hand embroidery
in white or color is always possible and
adds to the beauty of the blouse.
In any case. the advent of filet is to
be welcomed. It adds a touch of indi-
viduality to the simple blouse and. with
out being at all expensive, lends an air
of artistic distinction that imitation laces
can never give.

PARIS, July q.
GUNNER frocks for the tiny tots
are receiving due consideration
~ at the hands of the best de-
signers. for a realization of the
neglect of the past has opened up
lucrative field, and you may be sure
the opportunity is not being neglected.
Open-meshed etamines are used for
young girls dresses. Tussors with linen
pipings are also prominent. Guimpes OF
English eyelet embroidery-still the rage
over here-are delightfully."- clean and
cool.
Canes and colored handkerchiefs
look well together. don't you think?
On the Bois or in the shopping dis
ing both-just to be different, let
US hope.
Scarfs still hold their important
place in the summer outfit. Black
satin for the grand touch is the
best.
1t is difficult to keep pace with
the changes in chapeaux. On one of
the latest models the brim was
turned up again! Just after all woman
kind had adopted the dropping and
less trying "cloche' shapes But
such is fashion.
A Louis XIV model of lace, faced
with black velvet and trimmed with
a garland of roses and foliage to
match the color of the blossoms, was

drawing shows well just how attractive
the filet insertion can make, a perfectly
plain and simple blouse.
The larger model in the center is a bit
more elaborate. The waist itself is of
embroidery bought by the yard. Eng
hsh eyelet IS very appropriate and
pretty. The edging is shown in the yoke
and the frills at the short sleeves. F'ilet
is introduced in a wall-of-troy design
all around the middle of the waist and
the belled sleeves, with a very narrow
fold at the neck. This is one Of the
newest French models and makes UP
charmingiy
White linen forms the blouse at it's
right, which displays the long shoulder
seam so popular nowadays. There is a
modified Pierrot ruff of filet and gath
cred linen, with filet pleats down the
sides and filet insertion and cuffs on
the kimono sleeves. The front of the
blouse below the rufr is tucked for
about six inches. giving a bit of full
ness at the belt. The sleeves are elbow
length and the neck low and round.

Comfort in Summer

!: ITO BEGIN with wear as little un-
derwear IN summer as good ap-
Il pearance will allow. And let
what you wear be loose and OF cool
texture.
The undervest should be Of gauze, not
too tightly fitted to the body and with
the Iightest Of straps over the shoulders.
Pull it down well before putting on the
corset.
The corset itself should be the summer
variety-of light, open material, with as
few bones as possible. Keep it loose,
also, without having it uncomfortable.
The Ideally fitting corset allows free
movement, but itself never bulges.
i believe in the combination garment
the corset cover and drawers or the
corset cover and petticoat. 1 prefer the
former, because it does away with any
crease at the waist line and is cool as
well as neat looking. The corset cover
should be close fitting without being
high and should be of the nghtest pos
sibie material. Summer is the time to
dispense with ruffies and hounces; sim
piclty brings comfort
= The stockings need not be open work;
IN fact. open work is not SO cool as the
light ga uze or isle stockings. Many
women prefer to wear short socks in
summer, and If there is no danger in
. slipping, it is certainly less heating. The
sloe garters are best: they may seem
warmer than the round ones, but in the
end they do not cause so much discom-
fort from compression.
Shoes should be low and of thin leath-
er- Wear slippers If you can; they are
. light on the feet and do not cause them
70 perspire
Unless you wear a cloth or heavy linen
skirt you will need more than one petti-
. coat even on the warmest day. A short
and A long muslin or percale petticoat.
white or in a Light color, are sufficient,
however.
And thus. with constant cool bathing
and much use of talcum powder. YOU
may feel fresh and clean through the
hottest part Of the dog days.
