Household Ideas qna Style Hints
LACEY EFFECTS POPULAR.
Black Lace Much In Vogue at Present.
Ideas on Trimming.


Lace is being largely used by the
summer girl Of 1912. Some strikincly
beautiful costumes for garden parties
are seen in which this dainty material
is used for purposes Of trimming or an
entire blouse and sometimes for a prpt-
ty little cUatee.
Black lace was never so fashionable
and combined with black satin chiffon
makes up chlrlninGly. The fashion OF
putting white net or lace under the
black is more becoming than the all

cause it Is not necessary 20 have it.

sleeves. thus making 1t more practical.
If he economy point Of view IS being
considered. Back chiffon over white
lace Is one OF the favOrlte trimmings
for the black gown.
An afternoon gown that can also do
duty for theater If the yoke and collar
are taken out has sleeves and the up
