home sewer need not try to make hers
wrinkleless. They can end in frillS
or end in a little shrred ruffie which Is
cut with the sleeve and shirred in at
the wrist with a narrow shocking stitch.
If the sleeve is plain and comes down to
the hand II can be ended off with picot
edge of Irish lace sewed on by hand.
This costs only 10 cents a yard in the
correct width and half n yard will easily
do two sleeves. If 1t is used on the
sleeves 1t can be used to edge the collar.
Most of the new waists are made with
a suggestion of color about them. This
color can be Introduced with small glass
or china buttons used as trimming, as
well as for the closing. They can be
applied to the cuffs In row from top
to bottom and at the corners of the fat
collar.
Since the new waists are supposed to
be worn blousing slightly over the belt
il is well not to belt them permanently.

the matter over.

KHoST of the stamped patterns for
Nv embroidered waists presuppose
black closing. and most of the
waists this year are made with a front
closing The problem which confronts
the woman who buys two or three
stamped shirt waist patterns for pickup
embroidery in the warm weather is how
to make front closing right through the
center of the embroidered design.
Sometimes the pattern will be SO open
and loose tina. IL will not be difficult to
cut the waist from top to bottom either
in the center front else on the left
side for a closing there. Many of the
prettiest of the waists have side
closings which run either straight up
and down or diagonally from shoulder
to waist.
An applied hem OF the material of the
waist can be put on for the buttonholes
and a facing or underlap can be made
for the buttons. The hem can be In
the form OF a narrow. stitched box plcat.
An applied hem can also be made or
contrasting material. IL the waist Is
stamped and embroidered OF white wolfe,
plaided striped or figured wolfe can be
used for the hem and for turnovers on
collar and cuffs. IL long sleeves and high
collar are used. or frills about the fiat.
turnback collar and at the ends of the
sleeves.
Rufhing suggests itself as a form OF
covering for the meeting place of the
embroidery when the pattern canno. be
neatly cut and must simply be slashed
regardless of matching leaves and flow
ers and stems or circles, squares and
twirls. Fastened under narrow box
pleat opening and turning away from II
ruffling of any width can be used If II

THE small weekend trun ks are such
marvels of convenience and smart
ness that the woman who must
make a Weekend visit in a suit case feels
herself a victim of misfortune. But let
her cheer herself with the thought that
this year, when diaphanous materials and
scant styles and absence of petticoats
rule the day, she can carry more clothes
in suit case than ever before
The woman. who wants to get as much
as possible In her suit case should wear
her heaviest and most bulky clothes. For
instance. suppose she wants coat suit
and a pair of heavy boots, she should
wear them; or, suppose she feels that she
must have her new afternoon CAPE the
kind that Is modelled on the cut of army
capes and boasts a lining of gay plaid
silks. she should manage to wear that
over a thin wool, silk or cotton one-pfece
frock. At all events she should wear the
heaviest shoes and the bulkiest clothes
which she wants to have with her, and
SO leave more room in her suit case.
Present day underwear does not take
up much room. The necessary changes
can be packed in very thin layer in the
bottom of the case. a thin silk petticeat
or one of crepe de chine or wash net
spread the full length and breadth of the
suit case takes up only fraction of an
inch. Stockings are never seriously in
convenient, for they can be tucked in
corners or inside the shoes.
AS to shoes. If walking shoes are worn
a pair of house shoes and a pair of even
ing slippers are all that are needed. Shoes
at best. even in this year of thin kid and
French heels and pointed toes, do take
UP lot Of room, and the packer gener-
ally breathes sigh of relief when they
are safely disposed of.
Nightgown and neglige.- of the filmiest
sort take up another bit OF necessary
room hut when begrudxing them their
space think how much worse 1t would
be were the gown made with long sleeves
and high neck. friils and pulled and ruff
fed in heavy muslin, and the negligc
