COMBINE SILK AND LINEN
Feature Of the Season That Has an
Attractiveness Really
Unusual.

In the shops there are displayed
suits and dresses of linen that are de-
cidedly attractive in design and orna-
mentation There are some features
that are dominant on many of the
distinctive models. One means Of
trimming is new and effective. 1t is
silk or satin.
1t is used as girdles on many little
one-piece frocks. Slots, buttonholed
and Of considerable width, are worked
at the sides Of the front. Through
these the silk sash can be passed and
conveniently removed before wash
ing.
Many of these silk girdles have
ends that hang halfway down the
skirt. These. may be at the side, the
front or the back.
Rosettes of silk are used on many
linen frocks. They are easily re-
moved and give a very easy trimming
for a little dress Of plain-colored
linen.
Buttons Of black silk or satin are
effective little ways of trimming a
uTSbS Oh linen. ~ IL Adtt0I OA
few minutes to remove them or to
replace them They are undeniably
worth the trouble.
The extra sailor collars are quite
evident on imported frocks Of linen,
and can be incorporated with the
blouse If the color of the suit or dress
be of the unsoilable kind.
These square collars are of foulard,
of black silk or satin, and of colored
silk deeper in shade than the mate
rial of which the dress is made.
They are frequently trimmed with
narrow collars of fine linen or lace
upon them and softening the line at
the neck
Cuffs Of silk or satin are the nat
ural continuation of the collar idea.
They. too, need not be alone in their
glory.
AS for the simple little bows and
sailor knots Of silk. they are used
with much effect and convincing
beauty on many linen frocks and
suits.
The introduction of silk on linen
is an important one this season. Do
not neglect the idea, for it contrib
utes much to the attractiveness of a
gown

Pleasant Meals.

Shakespeare very truly wrote that
-unquiet meals make Ill digestions,"
and meal times should never be made
unpleasant. Wives must not enter
tain their husbands at dinner with the
days domestic grievances about chill
dren or servants. nor ask for money,
and husbands must not retail the wor-
ries of the Office, the fall in stocks or
their own personal troubles. Be
cheerful at meals, everything will
then taste better--and digest better;
