oped by Green Of Paris. It Ia unusually
plain and it Is unusually shapely. Yet
it Is strictly in the mode, and the

Americans would not have too much
business. Hence 1t is a quieted and
much-chastened mode exempliied in
the model shown in the picture.
The skirt is draped in plaits folded
yer toward the left side, with a short
split at the hem. It hangs in at the
ankles and out a little at the hips.
The underbodice is a separate gar
ment Of silk and lace.
The little coat is cut with kimono
sleeves and shaped to the figure at
the front by folding 1t in from the
swell Of the bust downward. A short
basque is shaped into a semifitting

NEW CROSS-STITCH PATTERN
Treatment of Roses Embroidered on
tho Usual White Linen
BACKGROUND.

Among the fashions in needlework
for spring and summer is a new style
cross-stitch idea.
The popularity Of cross-stitch pat
terms Is so decided and long-lived that
1t has resulted in producing new ideas
about the treatment Of it, which are
most interesting.
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1914-06-10

Among these a design for a rose pat
tern is embroidered on the usual shade
of oyster white linen. But contrary
to the accepted method, the pattern Is
not worked. The background is filed
in with the cross-stitch, leaving the
flower and its leaf formations In re-
lief.
The effect ia charming and the labor
much less tedious thun the old way.
For towel and pillow case borders, or
even for table scarf runner bordes,
this method of working cross-stitch
patterns is especially commended.
