The willy summer maiden
Has her weapons right at hand
To snare the unsuspectng male
A golden FISH TO land
For an her dainty summer frocks
Are frilled and founced with net,
Within whose mesh she hopes to
catch
An only son-ish yet
NEW YORK. May 29-To be natty
this summer you must be netty This
is the net result of the preesnt de-
mand Of the mode for ruflles and
nounces. They must be constructed
of soft dlmy fabrics to escape being
bulky Consequently along with or
candle and Paris muslin, the all-over-
net dress holds the contre OF the sum
mer sartorial stage
One of the pretticst models In the
net is a reversion 20 mid-Victorian
days with the skirt simply a charm
ing series of six ruflles from the
round baby waist down TO the ankles
The waist Is a loose blouse with set
in sleeves ending in a froth Of three
rufles at the elbow. The open throat
is finished with a narrow ruiile which
meets at the bust line and continues
IN double file down to the waist-coat-
cirdle OF soft rose taifota. All the ruff
les are edged in rose embroidered
scollops and the whole creation con-
verfs its wearcr INTO a vertiable but
torhy in the net.

lines has a new tunic of pleated net
over ar underskirt of net which is
also plcated and caught just above
the knees with n crush sash of soft
satin tied with a four looped bow in
front The crush girdlo is Of the
same soft satin and the waist is also
pieated and untrimmed with a "
shaped low neck and tiny short
sleeves that end abruptly. midway of
the shoulders and elbow with a wee
frill of the net This IS net, but not
gaudy.
These net frocks are really pret-
test in white hut in soft shades Of
maize, blue, pink. lavender, and sea-
green they are very desirable. The
flowered net with tiny nose-gays or
pink rose buds scattered over
white, blue. flesh. or maize ground is
very quaint and lovely made up the
front over lowered petticoat of
cream lace, the peasant bodice of the
net over n gulmpe Of the lace with
ruhied elbow sleeves is piquant,
Flesh colored hose with velvet
pumps, narrow black velvet ribbon
tied around either bare wrist and a
rose trimmed lognorn hat of shep-
herdess shape held under the chin
with a black velvet ribbon completes
On enchanting ensemble.
Leehorn hats by the way arc high
In favor this summer either in flop
py garden hat shapes or the chic tilt
ed bandeau models All are. of
course, flower trimmed that do not

flowers Is consid cred very smart
Now that the milliners are bring

grain to adapt the best brands Of

Another freak Fashion that has
gone 10 my lady's head for evening
wear is length of pastel tinted tulle
tied over her eyes like a bandage and
knotted behind in fluffy chou. Per-
haps this fad may have been launched
with the good Samaritan intention OF
acting like binders TO prevent a too
ardent follower of Fashions whim-
seys from seeing herself as others
see her. 40 doubt many would shy
