Lingerie for Summer Bride.
By LANE BARTON.


#as3 enough 10 plan a rousseau if
 -a ooes not care what she spends, to 1o it on q limited amount is another story.
 This too is easy enough if one knows how and it Is to help toward that know we will have a little talk today.
 Let us consider the lingerie first Adopt one style of underwear 1t saves money. This may be cotton gauge combinations which are becoming more and more popular -brassieres. white pettlcoats. and kimono nightdresses. To these may be added two princess slips The gauge combinations must be bought. They come lace trimmed with loose les-the best choice for summer. unless one is stout-or with tight knee length. The brassieres also can be bought. but 1t is cheaper and one gets better fit by making them a good pattern. The hmono nghtdress is much more simply made than any other style and saves material. Great variety can be given with trimming and diff ferent shapes of tho neck line. This style is specially adapted to the stout and to those of medium size 'Yho like slim silhouette,
 j: *
 Quantities and Cost.
 Six gauge combinations at 50 cents will cost S3 Then there are six nightdresses, three and one-half yards of forty-four inch goods; six brassieres, three-fourths yard, forty-four inch; six petticoats, two and one-half yards, forty-four inch material each; and two prn- cess slips three and one-half yards, forty four inch each.
 This will need altogether slightly more than forty-seyen yards of forty-four inch white goods. A nice. sheer quality of soft silky fin- ished nainsook can be used for all these gar ments and can be most economic cally bought by the twelve yard piece at $2.50 piece. Four pieces will be needed, costing for all the underwear of the trousseau but $10. thus averaging 20 cents yard.
 To this amount add two pieces of No. wash ribbon for Nraw strings. s1; five yards of nine inch lace for founcing two of the pettcoats, s1; two pieces of German valenciennes inser- ton and two pieces of edging to trim two of the nightdresses. the slips. and two bras sieres, s 50; 60 cents for patterns. 25 cents for half a dozen skeins of white mercerized cotton for embroidering the garments. and 25 cents for thread, buttons. and the like.
 This allows $17 for all the underwear with s3 for the gauge combinations. It averages just little more than 70 cents apiece for each of the twenty garments of the outfit.
 Nor need this outfit be unattractive if you put your time into hand tucks French em- broidered scallops and eyelets. and even sketchy designs In satin stitch, briar or chain stitching, and eyelet work. An entirely hand made trousseau is naturally wonderfully dainty. but I should advise using machine for the neat French seams. Hem by hand always Use a two or three piece pattern for petticoats.

the design is so simple that no other guide is needed
 The cross stitch cambric comes in three grades, the coarse for heavy materials such as bath towels and wash cloths, the medium for general use all articles of moderate weight fabrics, while for this baby's bib and other fine sheer fabrics the finest grade of this cambric should be used. This cambric comes at varying widths from twenty to thir- ty inches wide at about 30 cents yard and can be purchased in any dry goods store or at an embroidery speciality shop.

The newest frocks of voile and crepe are adorned with embroidered and crocheted flowers of wool.
 Some of the new bolero costumes have circular basques terminating in arrow points beneath the arms.

The frock should be straight two pieced skirt with three overlapping six inch ruffies forming a short tunic and a loosely bloused waist with raglan or the new French sleeves that come from the waist line, three-quar- ter sleeves and a rolled Japanese collar to girdle line with a surplice vest of net or all over lace cut with V top. Seven yards of thirty-sx inch taffeta should be enough for the three piece suit, with a half yard of 90 cent net or lace for vest and a yard of satin for bias bindings. Where ribbon is to be qulled allow three times the space to be trimmed. This suit will cost about S10, using dollar taffeta.
 Six cotton blouses with the new long shoul- dered or raglan sleeves. flare collars. and open neck, with entre-deux or baby Irish insertion in the seams of three of them. and the other three made with only briar stitch ing or cuffs and collars of a contrasting color, need average but dollar apiece. Two yards of forty inch goods will make blouse, and one can use sheer batiste-a nice quality costs but 37 cents yard-cotton crepe or null.

it has rival in the mandarin with ban deau and ties of ribbon velvet.
 It Is modlsh to wear bracelet with the evening frock. It should fit the wrist closely and be put on just above the hand.
 A beautiful evening wrap is made of dahlia red velvet, combined with gold lace or brown tulle.
 The chin strap of pearls, fastened on the top of the head with bunch of straight ostrich plumes, is one of the new ideas in evening coiffure.

 coat with raglan sleeves and wide flare collar that stands well out from the neck to give it the modish air. In a diagonal line from the sleeve at each side of the front insert under two rows of stitching a shaped tunic that is nine inches deep on the ends where inserted as described, and slopes to fifteen inches at point of center back. This hounce may be of the material or of taffeta, which is also used to form the entire collar. or can be put on as a facing on the upper part and used as an insert under stitching on the wide rather flared sleeve.
 Facing of Tafeia.
 About three and one-half yards of forty four inch material will be needed for this coat, and yard and three-quarters of taf- feta. While 1t will be handsomer lined throughout, for economys sake face with the cloth or with a bias four inch facing of the taffeta or moire Cover button molds with the silk used for trimming. Made up in lightweight ripple cloth or the lightest weight chinchilla, in Bedford cord, or one of the heavy novelty cotton goods such as golfne this coat can be made for from to s, according to the material chosen. Avoid the garish colors. Tan. taupe. or dull blue Is good
 TOT the three piece sult select SOft nnlSh taffeta, as it is the material of the hour. All the shades of blue from the palest to a deep navy are good. They are smartest when shot with white or silver gray. Where it is becoming cafe au lait, caramel or cham pagne tones are much used. especially when trimmed with black. A stylish touch Is to edge the tunics, flounces. and the like with inch wide velvet or satin ribbon box plaited quilting. Equally good is narrow binding of black, and less material is needed.
 Make with an Eton jacket with the back sloped nearly to hip line and cut in a sharp slash to a medium high waist line, which is defined by square two looped bow of the bias taffeta folds reaching all the way across the back. Have raglan three quarter sleeves with deep pointed turned up cuffs, and short ffarng collar of the taffeta with an inner iaring collar that comes to the end of the V opening, made of white eponge, silk, or linen. Slope up the fronts from the lowest point of the slash to about an inch below the bust line, and cut the upper to meet 1t. Fasten with single big button.

required fullness, and is hemmed along
one edge. This edge Is folded over
the front breadth, curving in toward
the bottom, and is stitched down to
within eight inches of the bottom.
From here down it falls open, but the
front breadth lies under the opening.
This gives room for an easy step.
There is three-inch hem at the bot
tom Of the skirt.
The kimona waist is cut with body
and sleeves in one, with two plaits
over the shoulders. This gives the
effect under the arms of the fashion
able bat wing" sleeve.
The open neck and sleeves are out
lined with narrow border Of black
fur. Of which about two and q quar-
ter yards are required
Anyone who knows even q little
about sewing can put this very simple
dress together. The skirt fastens
with hooks and eyes (very small ones)
at the left side, under the hem in the
back breadth. It is hung to fitted
girdle. The kimona blouse Is worn
over a net waist or neckpiece and
fastens surplice fashion in the front.
A girdle Of ribbon or fancy belt
IS needed to finish this gown, and
there are several styles that look well
with it. The handsomest Is the Ro'
man striped girdle showing brilliant
colors. This is made of ribbon about
eight inches wide. finished with a
loop and short ends at the front.
A crushed girdle of brocaded ribbon
In the rich colors Of the season, fast
ened with black velvet buckle at the
left side, is very pretty. It has no
ends, but is finished with an over.
tapping ruffle
A girdle made of black satin ribbon
laid in folds about the waist and fin
ished with single long tab, makes q
quiet finish. This tab should be
rounded at the end and embroidered
in bright colors, or gathered with a
long tassel Of silk or beads.
Allowing four and half yards Of
silk at dollar and a quarter a yard,
two and a quarter yards Of fur at
forty cents yard, the materials, in.
cluding sewing silk and hooks and
eyes, may be bought for seven dollars.
This leaves three dollars for the
girdle and under waist, out of an ap.
preparation of ten dollars. But nearly
every one possesses thin waist that
is available for these kimona blouses,
and girdles are part Of everyone's s
wardrobe this winter. At any rate,
ten dollars will cover the expense OF
all the materials needed to furnish
the gown, the girdle and the net un.
der waist.
Some Of the new shades of dark
green, the light shades of brown and
the dull reds make up in this style
into gowns as satisfactory as the one
pictured, which is smart and very use
full. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

the narrower widths In those a yard
wide or more only twice the length Of
the figure, plus a haif-yard, will be
needed. This extra half.yard is con-
sumed by hens and scant drapery in
the skirt.
If the design selected calls for an
overdress or extra drapery, more ma
terial will be required. Patterns des-
ignate the amount needed, but for q
simple dress the allowance given
above is sufficient.
In the simple and attractive dress
shown in the picture a taffeta yard
wide was used, and four yards made
the garment. 1t Is in b sapphire blue
(shot with black, with high luster
which is very brilliant and effective.

AMERICAN TOURISTS
ON INCOMING LINERS
Passengers Repeat the Statement
That Russian Troops Passed
Through England.

NEW YORK, September 11.-Flve trans
atlantic liners bringing Americans home
from Europe landed 1859 passengers in
New York today. Among the vessels was
the Southern Pacific liner Creole charter
ed by the government for the relief OF
Americans In England. which arrived
with 1872 persons aboard. Other incoming
vessels were the Celtic. which reached
quarantine from Liverpool with 1.9O1 pas
sengers; the Cunard liner Ansonia, from
Glasgow. with 1893 passengers: the italian
steamer San Giorgio, from Naples. with
lo6, and the French liner Flandre, from
Havre, with 95.
Russians speeded Through England.
More stories Of the passage Of Russian
troops through England came in with the
Celtic. Her passengers said that all pas.
senger traffic on railroad lines leading &c
Southampton had been suspended for q
time to speed the trains bearing the Rus
sian troops to their transports The shades
of the windows in the coaches, they said,
were drawn and the soldiers We're care
fully sh; elded from observation.
Several of the steamers had room to
spare in their cabins and steerage, indi-
eating that the high tide Of westbound
transatlantic traffic had passed. The San
Giorg.o was hardly half filed.
Laconic Announcement.
C. p Labon. a passenger aboard the
French steamer F1andre, which reached
pcrt today from Havre. said the French
eendarme upor whose beat in Paris the
arst German bomb was thrown from an
ae-oplane reported the incident to police
headquarters in the following cryptic mes
sage:
Some unknown person threw swill IN
the street, contrary to the orders OF the
police
on the Celtic there were 254 Americans
in the first cabin, 1853 in the second and
641 in the steerage. Some Of these pas
sengers corroborated reports that large
numbers of Russian troops had been
passing through England on their way to
aid the allied forces in continental Eu-
rope.
