STOCKINGS FOR LITTLE ONES
New Design viii Provo Boon for Wor-

Rompng Youngsters.

When the summer comes and the
active boys and girls, filled with the
zest of life, are rolling hoops. jump
ing rope and playing ball, garters dc
get broken and mothers are in despair
not only because of this, but because
of the big holes that the catches some
times tear in little stockings.
Now, however. a novel kind OF
hosiery has been put on the market
for the youngster obviating all diff,
culties Of this kind.
These are nothing more or less
than stockings which reach all the
way to the little waists, having a
straight piece back and front, which
is of elastic material. with button
holes which button right onto the lit
tie underwaists.
Such hosiery is not only practical,
but prevents all possibility of the
garter showing beneath small skirts
or bloomers. and also serves to keep
the underwaist In place.
The stockings come in brown and
black and white.

Coats for Summer.

White is to be fashionable this sum-
iner, and nothing Is prettier than a
white cloak. White satin evening
cloaks faced with black are smart. but
not practical as compared with the
same style of coat In lightweight
cloth. These coats should be cut on
scrne loose model, and can be trimmed
or plain. The sailor collar and revers
of velvet covered with heavy lace are
effective, but they are equally effective
of plain velvet, and velvet for the
moment seems more in favor than
satin as trimming. Heavy embroidery
and braiding around the bottom of the
coats, with the same trimming re
peated on the wide turnedback cuffs
and sailor collar make the garment
most elaborate. Sometimes the revers
are faced with satin, not velvet. and
this obviates the too heavy effect of
SO much braiding and embroidery.
