So ingenious was the look from the
large, deep eyes which accompanied this

r INEN is always a handsome material and it is shown in a great
many weayes this season, so that it affords ample variety. This
- gown is made of the French sort, the color being white, while
the. trimming portions are blue. The blouse with the big sailor collar
is a novel and attractive one, yet quite simple at the same time, and
the skirt is cut in seven cores with a pat at each seam. The model
suits washable materials peculiarly well, but it can be utilized for the
skirts of serge O similar material with blouse of lawn. batste OF linen
if preferred. Entire costumes are preferred this season, however, and
linen o. popin, washable pongee OF other similar material would make
up most attractively after the design. Buff linen with collar and cuffs
of white would be smart and cool in effect, blue and pink linens are
always attractive. If liked the sleeves can be made long and in regu-
lation shirtwast style. The closing of the waist is made inyisibly at
the front. Many of the inexpensive printed wash fabrics re very at
