yoke that is unlined. And the shorter
sleeves, of course are cooler. But there
are many woman who feel that short
sleeves are not appropriate with the
more practical style Of dress intended
for morning and for rough wear, and
consequently the waists made of satin
or changeable silk, whether trimmed or
not with the material Of the skirt are
more popular when made with long
sleeves.
Net and chiffon blouses or waists are
attractive and-are i'll all eolors often
two or three colors are combined, for
the lining will be one color, there will
be trimming band of ribbon on the
lining of another color and the net or
chiffon with which the waist is made IS,
o. should be, the color OF the gown.
Most remarkably effective and extreme
Is smart are the readymade waists.
The marvellous improvement in their
cut and general style makes it possible
with a small allowance to be the proud
owner of two or three-that is, If she
can wear readymade things,
The same waists made to order by
fashionable dFessmakers are still ex-
tremelv expensive, and, while much to
be desired if expense is no object, do
not present any great difference in APP
pearance at first glance. The shop
waists-that is, the good ones have
lining of net. lawn. batiste or India
silk; but they are not suitable to wear
unless over good fitting brassiere. For
the stout woman this fitted lining or
supporter is absolutely essential and
Sven a slender figure looks better with
some support. II the support is there
the waist itself can be loose if so de-
sired.
Waists to match the gown are of much
simpler design than those made of two
OF three eoloTs. In soft satins or change
able tatfeta, the latter, to be extremely
fashionable for time at least. there
are some most charming little models.
One made of satin has double collar
OF hemstitched linen and cuffs to match
OF the heavy crash linen that is so fash
ionable at the moment, The present
enthusiasm over crash linen and turkish
towelling as trimmings may seem some
what inexcusable, but it exists all the
same The double collars are fastened
with a large satin button, and there is
a soft tie that mitigates the severity
lutely plain.
Tucked chiffon and net waists have
been fashionable for so long time
that it scarcely seems right to include
them in the new styles. But they are
again in style this year and there are
many new designs. Some are quite
pain; but the majority are rather elab-
crate a smart and becoming model
has the lower part of the waist of
heavy embroidery or lace, while the up
per part is of tucked chiffon, black
over white, the tucks quite far apart;
the neck is band of black
velvet. There is also a black velvet
belt, while gold buttons down the front
add still another new touch. This waist
is smartest made in black and white
but is effective in any color. 1t is
good model to select if it is desired
to have waist and skirt alike, for in
place of the heavy lace or embroidery,
the same material as the skirt can be
used.
White waists are not supposed to be
any longer, and yet no prac-
tieal woman would dream of arrang-
ing for her summer wardrobe without
several different models of
wash waists. And the absolutely plain
tailor waists are delightfully."- smart this
year They are on the most severe
order and with long sleeves and cuffs
and mannish collars. Then there are
.he elaborate lingerie waists, the white
satin waists have returned to favor
again, while the Irish lace and other
leavy lace waists are most attractive
n design and are also fashionable.
The more elaborate lingerie waists
With lot Of lace let in and with en-
,roidery and elbow sleeves are not cor
Get with the heavy serges and cheviots,
And after all there is much that is rea-
onable in this fashion. With silk or
ctin costume lace or lingerie blouse
or change is smart, but the elaborate
tyles are always out of place and
lever look well with the severe tailor
ostumes.--New York Sun.
