DESIGN THAT MIGHT BE COPIED
WITH GOOD RESULTS.
Most Expensive Garment in the Orig
lnaI But Could Well Be Made of
Less Costly MateriaIs-Good
Evening Gown.

Here is typical garden party frock
for 1914. II was designed for a gar
den party and worn at one of the fas-
cinating rural spots outside of Paris,
and was really delicious combination
OF white taffeta and chiffon. blue rib
bons and small French rosebuds,
writes Lillian E. Young in the Wash
ington Star. There is no reason why.
If one wishes to economic, il might
not be developed ia much less expen-
sive materials. Cotton voile or mar
Quisette, for instance, would take the
same trimmings beautifully.
There was a knee-length skirt foun-
dation of white China silk, with the
remainder Of the skirt length COM
pleted in white taffeta, and over the
China silk top were hung the two
tunic founces of chiffon, scalloped
about their lower edges and bound
with white taffeta. A very new and
charming method OF trimming these
flounces was employed, for the small
French rosebuds were caught in scat
tered irregularity on the right side,
above the edge, while a bowknot de-
sign In light blue ribbon was applied
to the wrong side and showed through
the chiffon
The bodice was decidedly simple of
line, and, like the tunic fiounces, was
made of chiffon. Elbow-length kimono
sleeves were finished with double chit
fon ruffiing and a row of the small
pink roses. The V-neck had more
ruffling as finish and either side of
the blouse had one scallop above the
the girdle outlined in white taffeta.
Blue satin to match the color of the

the ribbon in the way desired, then
gently mark their position with a
piece of soft pencil or by inserting
pin. For each card either four Sits
are made in the ribbon, or four strips
of baby ribbon the same shade as used
for the large piece are sewn on. II
Sits are made, the cut parts must be
very carefully and neatly sewn or but
tonholed over. The strip is then fas-
tened at top and bottom onto two lit
tie rollers, such as are used for send
ing small prints through the post;
these, if not at hand, may be bought
from any stationer very cheaply.
The pieces of wood that hang out
beyond the ribbon or material can
either be wrapped round with narrow
ribbon or painted with gold paint or
stained any color desired. A ribbon
or cord is attached 70 the back of 1t
by which to hang it up.
These hangers will be found most
useful for bedrooms, sitting-rooms,
etc.; it is impossible to have frames
for all the cards and photos, and this
keeps them together and they may be
changed at intervals.
When the holder is made of velvet,
it should be neatly finished round the
edges with fine cord and then hung
up by the same kind of cord.

Net Slips.

Summer attire makes all that is
worn underneath of additional impor-
lance as to cut and decoration.
The princess slip is worn by many
women in preference TO the separate
petticoat. The slips fit with kindly de-
ference to the lines OF the figure and
are intended TO take up as little room
as possible under the outer garments

Pierrot's Ruff.

Unless your wardrobe includes a
Pierrot's ruff it is not quite In the front
rank of fashion. Of course, you are
familiar with the Pierrot ruff Of the
dramatic world, but that Of the smart
world is several inches broader and
considerably more frilly. In fact 1T is
so exaggeratedly large that it frames
coming soft halo for them. You may
make one in plated malines-black,
white or the shade best liked-and you
may have one in chiffon. But IL you
would look truly Partisan have the
neck frilling in shot taffeta with
pinked edges and fasten it under one
ear with a silver cord and tassel.
