One Of the most attractive dinner
table settings seen recently in a priv,
ate house. where II guests were TO be
served, had the table covered entire
ly with soft pink satin spread, over
which was laid sheer linen cloth,
through which the pink showed deli
cately, says the New York Herald.
Laid diagonally over this was a wide
cluny lace scarf. or runner, on which
a large crest embroidered in gold
showed at one end This decoration
was so placed that it occupied a space
just inside the row of dinner plates,
but outside the floral centerpiece,
which consisted of pink roses branch
ing from a large carved golden bowl.
Floral decorations for luncheon and
dinners are always quite simple, and
either low, so that the guests may
look across the sprays of blossoms
and leaves, or very high and spread
ing out from tall, thin vases which do
not obstruct the view of the guests
on the opposite side.

French Lingerie Dresses

A much-admired Drecoll model worn
at Longchamps. writes De LANCE in
Women's Wear, shows an extravagant
employment of lace on dress of
white cotton mousseline. Preference
has been given this season to delicate,
soft laces such as maline and chantil-
ly, and Drecoll is one of the first of
the big couturiers to come out with a
medium weight, rather coarse linen
lace. On this particular model the
corsage is made entirely of lace with
the sleeves cut in one with the cor
sage kimono style A rather full skirt
is seen, the upper part made of cot
ton mousseline laid in plaits at the
belt and edged below the knees NTH
a wide band of lace. Below is the
drop skirt, the lower part encircled
with two bands of lace, each about six
inches wide.
Bead embroidery made it's reappear-
ance on lingerie dress of sheer white
cotton stuff The designs of roses was
executed in cut crystal beads, the
roses worked in all shades of pink
beads intermingled with green leaves
The effect was exquisite. On the skirt
there are two rows of narrow leaf
green velvet ribbon. White maline
lace is used on the corsage, forming
frill in the neck and sleeves and
yelling the Maroon strip of embroid-
cry just below the bustline. The hat
worn with this dress is of draped
white maline, the newest thing in
summer millinery; on one side white
bird is placed
Another dress shows skirt of
white cotton eponge cloth, having a
narrow ruche of purple taffeta on the
bottom and design embroidered in
bright-colored woolens. Three tucks

ty patterns can be found in this ma
terial if one cares for the light colors.
If, however, you plan to dress the
child in blue the ginghams are by far
the better material for SO long as no
bleaching agent is put in the washing
they will not fade.
When the dresses are completed the
thought of the. school bonnet arises.
Very pretty shapes come in the pea

CREPE RRAPERIES

Something a little out of the or
binary in draperies for a girls room
are the new cotton crepes These
make pretty hangings for a bedroom,
and are" now being used for this pur-
pose. AS these goods can be launder-
ed frequently and need not be ironed,
the draperies can. always be kept
fresh and clean The crepe is manu-
featured in lovely. designs and in al
most any color, and any particular
color scheme could be carried out
