sock are also much used. For the
dark tailored suit, petticoats of mes
saline and soft taffeta are still popular
1t is very important that the petit
coat be we'll cut. Under the tight skirts
a few inches of extra width will make
a crease in the skirt. Every particle
of superfluous width, not only of under
skirts, but of every undergarment worn
with the present-day costumes, must
be carefully cut away 1t is only in
the frock for practical wear that wom-
an can afford to be eXtravagant in I'M
derwear. For wear with a costume
such as that of the second illustration,
the cut of the petticoat must be as
carefully considered, but the material
and finish may be less fragile and dain-
ty.
The charming shirt waist in this fig
ure was developed in white wolfe. Low
collar and yoke proclaim the prevailing
mode. A girdle of silk is in pleasing
harmony with the green stripe of the
skirt. The skirt was developed in
green and tan summer silk, with few
folds of drapery at the left side. But
tons form an effective finish. To the
woman who cannot afford one of the
new mantelets of chiffon or soft silk
so dainty for summer wear, it will be a
consolation to know that she may wear
the coat of her silk suit with her sheer
lingerie frocks and be considered quite
smart.
If she have a coat-suit of matelasse,
poplin, broche, silk or satin, either
plain or brochade, and in black or any
of the new shades, she may adopt the
jacket for wear with her dainty sum-
mer frocks and get double service out
of it. This will be decided economy,
as coats invariably outlive their COM
panion skirts. Equally suitable is the
separate skirt of white serge, broad
cloth, crepe or silk for wear with this
jacket. These supplant the throws and
scarfs of recent fashion and are much
more sensible and practical.

eliminating taste prefer little elaborat-
ton; with them line is the most i'm
portant factor Of the gown. 1t is made
to accent all good points and con-
ceal all bad ones. This is the task Of
the woman who does her own sewing
to chose a model suited to her style.
At the persent moment Bulgarian
and Futurist trimmings are thought to
produce just the right touch Of pi-
quancy and picturesqueness, but what
ever country, from Japan to Turkey,
serves as tone inspiration, women
should use discrimination in adopting
its color schemes and choose only those
whose main tone is to them most be-
coming. A touch of color at throat,
wrist or waistline is generally consid-
cred sufficient to brighten the most
somber gown. Should the gown be of
light tone, trimming in pleasing con-
trast may be used with good effect,
and on the more servicable frocks of
coarse mesh and fabric the gay color
effect is most pleasing. For evening
however, all such conspicuous shades
are passe. Delicate pastel tones are
preferred when the choice of trimming
is silk or satin. But beads, bulges,
rhinestones and fancy buckles. buttons
and soft-toned pearls, are first choice.
All of these are very effective on the
wonderfully soft chiffon and tulle used
for evening, On many of the simpler
frocks pearls alone are used. The most
elaborate lingerie dresses this season
are made of batiste embroidery COM
bined with genuine laces of Cluny,
filet, Venise and d'Alencon. Mes, COM
bined with batiste embroidery is also
in favor for both afternoon and even
ing. English eyelet embroidery is quite
smart, but the material used is batiste,
not linen and is wrought in many spray

founces of shadow lace. Rosebuds,
outlining the top fiounce, make pref
ty finish.
A recent novelty is petticoat, all of
net, unlined, with corset waist to
match. This is most effective for wear
with summer frocks. Petticoats of
shadow lace are next in favor and may
be worn either with evening or after
noon dresses. Crepe de Chene, hand
kerchief linen, French batiste and main.

Observation-Disclosures IN RELATION GOWN

New York, June 18.-Carlyle made
familiar to us the philosophy of
clothes. proving beyond the possibility
OF effective contradiction that mans
garb is a sure index of his life, but
the psychology of clothes is quite an
other question. That is a modern dis
covery which is slowly and surely gain
ing the attention of the lay mind. Per-
haps the majority of us are too busy in
our endeavor to get clothes of any
quality, color or construction to waste
our much-needed energy on solving
the question of whether this or that
color scheme harmonizes with our
temperament or, when adopted by us,
typifies the bent and popularity of our
personality. The woman who dresses
well makes us conscious of her beauty,
charm, softness and grace, and the
nearer she approaches perfection in the
art the more does she give us a happy
impression Of harmony and loneliness,
unmarried by an obtrusion Of detail.
This is dress technique at its highest.
To accomplish this woman must know
herself. Her clothes must be the crown
and elimination of her personality.
The frock seen in the first figure not
only conforms to the dictates Of fash
ion, but it may impersonate also the
idiosyncrasies of the wearer. If the
hair be brown, the complexion clear
and the eyes brown or blue, shades
either blue or brown will develop it
advantageously. AS represented the

1t is extremely rare that Morse's fore

Democrat but does what almost every

error In the spelling OF that forename of
Morse's is accounted for by the fact that
"Jedidiah" is very unusual method OF
spelling the name. Mr.. Morse's name,
however, was Jedidiah Morse, not Jede-

it is a blunder, and think that the book
