One piece lenen gowns have az
ways been an agreeable advantage 70
the wardrobe, but IT Ii. strange how
few people took advantage OF them.
Whenever lien was purchased in
white Of in eolbTs, the fret THING
thought OF was a coat ana skirt.
Every one seemed to think this was
the proper use for the fabric, r.
took two or three summers of popu-
larity to establish the belief that the
one-piece frock was an excellent ar
rangement of linen; it did away with
the necessity OF wearing a separate
blouse, and it was a shade cooler
than the three pieces worn together
1t was light in weight, and if lark
in color it could be worn indefinitely
without going to the tub. This month

these days they are even more adj

proof, and spotting badly when water
touches them. The striped ones are
plain foulard In the same color. For
combined with large quantities OF
plain foulard in the same color For
instance, the skirt will be of stripes
trimmed with four or six folds alter
mating from stripes to plain mate

Harem Skirt Dead
The harem skirt? No; it died O nat

sionallg hear about and see the
pantaloon skirt. The one pantaloon
dee or "hobhle" skirt into which nv
lady had to step very snugly about d
year ago, as either ungraceful on
disgraceful or both.

skirts which are our exclusive danes
