chiffon which reaches below the bust,

the ~lansdown, which slopes downward
at the back to the waistline and falls,
thence, over the skirt in W short,
tasseled ends. But The telling note
of this black and white gown Is given
by a broad strip of blue, gold and
orange embroidery in Oriental effect,
which passes across the bust beneath
the black chiffon blouse.
Another mixed weave used for Len
ten bridge gowns is mohair and wor-
sted. A costume of his material,
built by Driscoll, is Illustrates; and
the very girlish effect of the simple
but chic little frock will be observed.
The mohair and Worsted mixture in
a new gray-grecn color is trimmed
only with white pearl buttons and
heavily embroidered b%uttonhole motifs
matching he material, and by a
wedge shaped section of very gay zig
gag cotton material-the latest Paris
Whim in trimming-in black, White
and pale yellow. The little turned
over collar at the neck Is OF white
satin and within is O yoke Of white
net. The cut of the sleeve at the wrist
Is notable and also the very low arm
mole giving an exaggerated length OF
shoulder. h skirt of this Drecoll
frock shows the Arab drapery as it is
called in Paris. The skirt itself meas
ures less than As inches around at
the foot, and over it falls a pleated
pack panel which Is drawn forward
at the sides and looped up into but
tonholed Sits in the front of the skirt.
This frock fastens down the back in
an oblique manner, the oblique rever
running over the shoulder and down
to the waistline at both back and
front. DC not overlook the little wisp
of hemmed lace tucked into the rever
at the right side. and intended to i'm
itate a handkerchief.
Several froclis b%uttoning at the back
of the bodice have been noted of late.
but the buttons are always very oddly
arranged n never go straight down
the center-back. Sometimes there are
battlement-tabs. each holding three or
four buttons and the tabs turning in
alternate directions-a most proyok
ing puzzle for the suffering hus-
band who has to play lady's maid. One
very modish new bridge frock of gem
darme blu faille has very small but
tons in smoked pearl finish down one
side, the row of buttons continuing
down the skirt as far as the hip where
a sling drapery crosses. These small
pail buttons are set close together and
four dozen must have been Used on
bodice and skirt, each with an accom-
panying b~uttonhole. Another exas-
peration for the long suffering hus-
band.

auction afternoons of an informal ma
ture, ones nearest and dearest FEM
mime friends being asked in for a ta-
bic or two tables, and at these in
formal affairs hats are omitted
the gowns are not as ceremOniouS and
elaborate. The hostess at such a party
may even wear a lingerie frock, fresh
from the d~ressmaker's tissue wrap
pings and dainty with next summers
promise. A pretty costume of this
sort was worn 1t a luncheon and
bridge party of eight, one day last
week. The gown was made of creamy
toned batiste embroidery, in an all
over pattern in eyelet effect, cream
shadow lace being introduced in the
front and back of the bodice, and
cream net frills finishing the elbow
sleeves. The skirt was looped up at
the knee with a big, pale pink rose,
and a twin rose was tucked against
the girdle of pale pink satin. Though
extremely simple in effect his creamy
embroidery gown with it's pale pink
touches was eXquisitely lovely.
Machine embroidery appears on an
other Lenten gown which was worn
by another popular young authoress
at a club reading recently. The bodice
Of this gown-which suggests Cheruit
in its conception-is of creamy toned
machine embroidery in one of the
new patterns combining eyelet work
with lacy motifs. over the embroid-
cry bodice which has sleeves to the
wrist, is a blouse of peacock blue
chiffon and over This a second blouse
of pale gray chiffon. Roses in pale
pink and silver are embroidered on
the girdle and chiffon elbow sleeve.
The gray chiffon blouse reaches high
over the bodice of creamy embroid-
cry; the peacock blue chiffon blouse
drops below it somewhat in a squared
cut with a deep hem of the doubled
chiffon. The skirt of this unmistaka-
BILE Cheruit model is draped in the
Cheruit "sling" at one side. near the
foot and a sash of the material
peacock blue lansdowne-falls at the
opposite side. A photograph of this
gown is shown on today's page.
Lansdowne-a mixed weave of silk
and worsted-is much used for these
draped, indoor costumes, just now.
The couturiers like it because of It's
clinging, supple qualities and because
It's folds maintain their position in
the long, draped effects of the mo-
ment, better than flimsier all-silk ma
terials. Another Cheruit gown, also
Of l~ansdowne, this time in black, may
be described in this connection. The
Cheruit Sling is shown also in this
gown, the drapery being brought up
sharply in front of one knee and car
ried across to the opposite hip. while
the narrow skirt is slashed to show
the buttoned boot. The bodice, an
other typical Cheruit model. Is Of flesh

Partisan, for machine embroideries
are now being used on everything
even ball-goWns.
But the sleeves of the little coat
We're not elbow sleeves-not at all
and here is the novel notion; armlets
or tight undersleeves cached from
under the embroidery frills at the ell
bow clear to the wrist, covering the
long, shirred sleeves of the bodice be-
meath. The wrap, like the bodice and
skirt, was built of a new silk fable
so Mstrous that it is called in Paris
onduline satin, but the armlets in the
coat sleeves were of plain black satin
and were very conspicuous, as the ma
| terial of the costume was a rich, dark
blue in color.
Within the surplice-draped bodice
of dark blue onduline satin was a
softly draped fichu of white panne
velvet, this in turn crossing over an
inner kerchief of fichu Of white tulle.
The materials were so soft and so
cleverly managed that the effect was
not at all bunglesome, as a velvet
draped kerchief about the neck and
over the bust might easily be if not
adjusted by a master hand. These
draped kerchiefs of soft stuff, within
the opening of a dark bodice are a
new Paris note and the effect is very
chic-and very feminine and demure.
AS for the skirt of the blue onduline
costume, it was draped-as all skirts
of this sort are now; and it was
slashed-as all Paris skirts are now,
also. From the slash peeped now and
then a boot of patent leather with a
gray suede buttoned top. The hat
must not be forgotten. 1t was of dark
blue hemp straw-though midWinter
winds were blowing out of doors
and was trimmed in the oldest way
with flowers made of cork and two
smart black quilts that shot backward.
Paris is making hat flowers of every
thing noW-even of feathers: but cork
seems rather a wierd substance to in
corporate into floral trimmings. These
cork roses, however, were rather
pleasing in shape and color-and were
of course exceedingly chic, which was
all that mattered.
At the same reading was worn g
most enhancing gown of black chan
tilly lace draped over dull gold satin

drawn, managing to sheath the figure
