greet US at every turn. For
the most part, they are small and
close-fitting, very attractive and giving
promise of becoming season. As is
apt to be the case, a great many flower
hats are shown but those of the season
are new and distinctive. Frequently,
they are just little crowns with tiny
little rolled up brims and they are
pulled well down over the head, often
nearly covering the forehead. These
crowns are completely covered with
the flowers while the brims are bound
with velvet and an outstanding bow
of the same velvet makes effective
trimming and gives height. Rich red
roses with black velvet are handsome.

seems especially well adapted to a
combination of materials, for there
must be contrast to get the best re-
suits, and almost any two fashionable
fabrics can be used. Chiffon velvet
is sufficiently soft and thin to drape
beautifully. All the silks and satins
arc soft and pliablc, consequently.
they can be draped effectively without
bulk.
There is fitted lining upon which
the various parts of the waist are
arranged. The lining is closed right
at the center front and the waist
invisibly at the left of the front. As
shown here, the little chemisette or full
front portion is made OF chiffon. which
is always pretty for such use. Nets
are greatly in vogue just now and fine
lingerie materials often are charming
with silk and velvets. All-over lace or
maline may be used also. Pin tucks
taken in chiffon or net in cross-barred
effect enhance the beauty Of the vest.
The skirt is trimmed with a cir
cular founce to give a tunic effect
and it is very new and attractive.
1t can be made either in walking
length or with train; it will be found
equally practical for two material
and for one throughout. The pattern
shows a line on which the trimming
is arranged. 1t is quite easy to
make the skirt of one material above
and another below this line. although
the skirt really consists of Just two
pieces. Slight gathers are at the upper
edge Either the high or the normal
waistline is worn. Long skirts are
popular for afternoon and evening
costumes, but, for practical use, the
skirt that clears the ground remains
the favorite. Some women are wear
ing their skirts ankle length.
THE waist design that is made
with a round neck is a style
that is generally becoming. This
model is lovely whether it is made with
or without yoke. Under sleeves can
be added. too, so that the pattern is
doubly valuable, for it becomes adapted
to both evening and daytime wear.

AFTERNOON AND EVENING
GOWNS.

NRAPED effects make an i'm
portant feature of fashionable
dress this season. The draped
blouse, here shown, is graceful as well
as new. As this one can be made with
either round or high neck, with elbow
or long sleeves. it is adapted to various
needs and materials. The rather wide
fancy collar, suggestive of the Robes
pierre idea, is an interesting feature.
and the sleeves that are joined at the
long shoulder line are new. The design
The Washington herald., 1913-02-09

CPRlNG fashions are rather un-
y usually interesting this year. for
they are essentially attractive
and they show certain new features
notably the belted or Russian idea and
the many variations of the raised waist
line. Women on the outlook for good
models will do well to study this
picture for each design shown is
new and smart one.
The tailored suit Of serge is made
with one Of the new skirts draped at
the front with a plated panel at the
back. The collar is a novel one and
the little vest allows effective use of
handsome material One of the new
ratine suitings would be handsome
made in this way with a vest of Bull
garian embroidery. The Russian
blouse costume that is shown on the
seated figure emphasizes the favor
that will be shown all variations of
the brocaded idea. In this view, it is
made of broche crepe throughout with
the trimmings only Of satin but the
same costume re-appcars in the back
view with the skirt Of striped material
and the coat of plain, and just such
combinations make an important fea-
ture of the new styles. The sailor
collar is handsome made from any
contrasting material and the neck is
Just open enough TO be pretty and it
can be adjusted over a chenisette
when the high effect is wanted. These
little chemisettes. by the way, are
especially worthy of note, for they
give a very distinctive touch to a
toilette and they are especially de-
sirable with costumes that are to be
worn both within doors anG upon the
street, for they can be adjusted in a
moment and removed whenever the
occasion renders desirable. All sorts
of contrasting materials arc used for
blouse and skirt, but rough finished
materials and crepe effects are among
the smartest of all things while silks,
both of the satin finish and the heavy
ribs, are to be much worn. A blouse
of charmeuse satin over skirt of
ratine makes an extremely handsome
costume and the new charmeuse crapes
is pretty over plain finished fabric
\/OUNG girls are extremely apt to
I look we'll in coats made with
the raised waist line. This one
includes a very new and very novel
little vest that is turned over to form
pointed revers. The cutaway front is
an important one, too, for it gives
very giriish lines while the arrange
ment Of the back is distinctly novel
The Washington herald., 1913-02-09

1t will be noted that the side portions
are Tapped onto the center to continue
the high waist line and also to produce
very slender becoming lines. The
checked material trimmed with plain
is excellent but we seldom have had
a season open with so many pretty
suitings and girls are sure to like the
Iatine that takes so many forms. 1t
is especially handsome trimmed with
broadcloth or satin. The girls COS
tune shows the Russian blouse in one
of its newest and best forms worn
over simple little four-piece skirt.
The skirt is over-lapped at front and
back and, in one view, the corners are
round and, in the other, straight. Both
treatments are used and, whether the
costume is made all Of one material or
with the blouse and skirt in contrast,
the model is one of the best possible
for spring and summer wear.

duck" Towels.

"Huckaback' toweling is most In
demand, yet very few know why 1t
is thus called. 1t is SO named from
the weave, which throws up a little
knot, or buck, in both warp and wool,
making a slightly roughened surface,
which is very much liked for absorb
ing moisture, says the Commoner.
The "bird's-eye" toweling is delight
fully smooth and absorbent, and is
much glossier and finer than the buck
aback. If one has time and inclina-
ton, the toweling may be purchased
by the yard and the hemming and
marking done at home, giving them
individuality; but nothing Is saved.
Twenty-four inches by forty-two inches
is the size most liked, or 22x40, as n
prefers. This for the family use, while
the guest towel may be 15x24 inches.
