contemplating the purchase of material
for new afternoon costume should take
into consideration the near approach of
spring and choose something which may

appropriate to wear under long coat at
informal functions during the remaining

order of a coat dress, it would seem
practical. 1t is made of plain and bro
caded charmeuse in a soft. dull shade of
cobalt blue, and has for trimming a roll

ratine and spherical crystal buttons, with
accompanying embroidered buttonholes on
opposite sides of the front of the blouse

circles the waist and is tied in 'front.' with
one long end extending to the knee.
where it is slightly taken in under a
band of the white wool ratine.

nine, or ten inches across the front, the
space being filled in with a surpliced vest

neck left Nshape. Under the deep cuff.
which extends below the elbow, is a fold
of the plain blue charmeuse.
The brocaded tunic shirt is slightly
gathered at the waist and again around
the lower edge, then pouched over the
skirt proper, with the lower line arched

DAINTY APRONS FOR
THE BRIDAL SHOWER

The bright particular star of the shower
of gifts which every popular bride-to-be
receives nowadays from her little coterie
of intimate girl friends is the dainty
apron which may be used for chafing dish
suppers, for afternoon tea or for chatty
hours spent over needlework Every
woman adores frivolous bit of an apron.
and the more frivolous it is, and the
less suggestive of utilitarian services. the
more appropriate will it be for a gift
apron.
Very fetching chafing dish aprons can
be made Of dotted swiss, cut in a pointed
shape at the lower edge and paneled with
inch wide lines of very line machine en-
brOidery. Around the edge should go a
frill of val lace and ribbon tie-strines
may be run through an embroidery bead
ing. set across the top of the apron. All
over embroidery also makes a charming
apron and there are new machine en-
broidered batistes which are particularly
airy and dainty. 4 lace frill or a frill of
very sheer fine embroidery should finish
the edge. and tiny pockets. edged with
frilled lace, may be decorated with bows
of pert black velvet ribbon or with blue,
pink or lavender bows, according to the
brides taste.
The little bride who is going to take
care Oh neT new nome with her own
hands will appreciate a top-t6-toe kitchen
and workaday apron, which will cover
her frock completely. Such an apron
should reach well up over the front of the
frock and may be made with large arm
holes finished with piping or have loose
sleeves fastening at the wrist with but
toned cuff, as preferred The sleeveless
apron is the daintier style and most wom-
EN- prefer it. since the sleeves of the
morning dress or shirt waist are usually
rolled back during household duties and
apron sleeves are rather in the way
Make the tOp-to-tOe apron of pink and
white or blue and white gingham and
pipe 1t with white or with plain color
Round out the neck and finish it with a
piping or with a narrow turnover collar
and smart little bow, and be sure and re-
member pockets. A big one at each side
just below the waist, will add style to the
apron and be appreciated by its wearer

A model for corduroy is shown in this
drawing. For home dressmaking this
material is much to be recommended, as
for some reason it seems peculiarly
adapted to the hiding of amateur finish
ing and under even mOdera tely skillful
handling comes forth with a SmartnesS
equaed by no other material. The
model shown is a very simple one with
center box pleat occupying blouse and
skirt the latter untrimmed except for
the row of satin buttons the pleat.
The blouse has wide collar of heavy
sef-tone satin and yoke of fine shadow
lace. On either side of the center pleat
is a band of self-tone silk passementerie.
The long sleeves are trimmed with the
satin-covered buttons. Tie and girdle
