NEW YORK, June 11-There is al
excellent opportunity for economical
women just now to replenish thei
summer wardrobe at comparatively
small cost. The shops display a large
assortment of lingerie and otlel
summer frocks at quite reasonable
prices and the variety Of styles il
great enough to satisfy all tastes
There are some neat and attractive
Bingham morning gowns and an un
limited supply of linen frOcks rang
ing in price from SIS to $3.50 or even
more, according to the fineness Of
the material and the amount of hand
work and lace put IN the dresses.
The separate white and colored
tub skirts for summer wear show
more variety than usual, thanks to
the popularity of cotton corduroy and
of various new heavily corded cot.
tons, which are successful rivals OF
the traditional piques, reps and lin
ems. Cotton and linen ponges too are
much used for seperate skirts bot1
in white and in a soft light tan. A
popular shirt waist house shows ex-
ceedingly chic skirts in this materia
as one Of its special ties and has sold
large quantities Of them.
For wear with these heavy skirts
any sheer lingerie blouses are all
right, but simple yet very daintily
made models in fine cotton marqui-
settle, trimmed only with fine tucking
and trimmed with~hemstitched turn
down collars and sleeves ending a
little below tae elbow are meeting
with much success. Some Of these
little blouses have narrow hens Of
colored' marquisette, but while the ef-
feet is charming, the all white blouse
presents fewer laundering difficulties,
and will look we'll longer than the
one with touches Of color
Linen frocks of a simple sort but
trimmed with contrasting color or
material instead of depending entire
ly upon smart collars and cuffs and
self.trimming are numerous, and good
effects are obtained with the quaint
lowered linens of Jouy design in con-
nection with plain linen.
Linen and sheer lingerie materials
are combined in some of the import
ed models. Fine linen or batiste or
marquisette may be used for long
semi1transparent sleeve and gimpe
with an everybody and skirt Of linen,
or the sheer stuff may form a Ghemt-
settle, collar frills, cuff frills and per-
haps some panel or glimpse of petit
coat in the skirt. A full length panel
of finely cross tucked linen was used
with a tucked collar and tucked cuffs
on one pink linen, and another in a
deeper tone Of rose had a narrow
full-length front panel with tiny
box plat in the middle and little
plaits or tucks on each side. Down
small pearl buttons, which were
sewed on with black silk, and q smart
little cravat bow fastening the finely
embroidered I'M erie collar was of
black. !:
The grill or fillet mesh linen is
much used in combination with plain
linen, and there are soft, heavy, loose
woven cottons which have f1llet weave
to match. These cottons are flecked(
with white in pepper and salt fashion,
and are very good looking in the cool
grays and tans, though 1t seems pos
sible that the loose woven stuff might
stretch and pull out Of shape. Some
very likeable trocks and suits are
made up in gray linen, of which there
are many lovely shades this season,
and these are best relieved by Linz
serie of the yellowish antique tone;
though frills and collars, etc., Of pure
white sheer stuff are pretty with the
gray. g.
Many lingerie blouses are made
quite plain without tucks or hand
work of any description, but are en-
'iched by collars, cuffs, and a few
nsets of heavy lace, such as Milan
n Russian. An attractive model is
