For the Women to Think About
Written Especially for The Reformer

pieture that might Just as well be reserved
Tor other eyes than those oil the 'auy "o'oS
the street.
The Irish lace may be said TO. hold trrl
place as decoration for lingerie iroeks ah'
blouses.
Especially smart are the delicately INT
ed colored linens-buif, ccrlse, pale punk OF
blue, embroidered in beads OF the same
color.
The kimono sleeve which has, relgned
supreme In sleeyeland for the. last lew
years is 10 be with us still for the coming
season,
School frocla for little girls show CON
tnued adherence TO the front panel effect,
finished either with scalloping or BRAID
Skirts Of new tailored costumes continue
straight and close. Later II Is probable
that wide silk bands viii assume greater
Importance as an adornment on skirts as
well as on coats.
For strictly tailored hats there are orna
ments OF straw, Of ribbon, and the new
knitted stuff that looks like the sort used
in gloves and muiilers.
The yelled girdles are charming things.
One. for instance, has a backing of dark
blue silk with layer" Of duh Persian
and yelling Of dark green chiffon.
Cotton embroidered in pale blue, pink
and delicate tones OF yellow is seen on
A. ,av,, tfpuaria models
Large hats turned up at the front are
showing trimming OF black and white
ostrich feathers.
Standing turnover collars still hold their
own, and few at least should be included
in every wardrobe
The white slipper and shoe, in kid, buck.
skin and canvas, will be much worn during
the coming season.
Chemise night.gowns, daintily finished
IN neck and sleeve edges with narrow |
hens and laces or embroidery edgings,
ire more or less deliberately embroidered |
icross the 'front.' sometimes with flower |
sprays and again, a shade more smartly, |
perhaps, with a tall, slender monogram.
Do not because you are getting well
hink it your privilege to get snappy Do
rot be a wilmer who never acknowledges
Every one can tell you are
citing better by your looks and appetite,
o il pays to be honest as TO feelings. DO
lot drive your friends wild by attempt
ne more than you can stand. Remember
hey must nurse you when you pay for
our foolishness with a relapse. Do not
ermit yourself invalid ways longer than
necessary. There are patients who act
he invalid for the rest of their lives after
ne serious sickness. Do not get the sick
abitl Do not overtax your nerves, your
ack, your eyesight or your digestion after
long sickness. All of your organs are
and to force them may mean /
injury. II you are bread
inner who must get back to delvlng soon
r than You should, do not fail to take ;
lings as easy as you can for a time. Work,
you must, but rest when you can, take /
good tonic, and above all, do not worry. /,
% not forget that bad sickness often '
kes months TO recover from. Unless
lese bad effects are counteracted by hy i
enlc living, you will pay the penalty !
permanently broken health. G
Far better shaped kimonas are the re- !
1T of the present cutting, which shows /
bias seam in the middle of the back.
Tulle promises to return to its own again :
the trimming Of spring and summer !
It's. Though not very durable, it is light, n
inty, and in the highest degree appro-
late for summer, and the colors were !,
yer so alluring. q
The smart blue is termed "black.blue "
midnight blue" 1t is not new but il q
very handsome and becoming in the s;
rges and diagonals of the present season. y
