SEEK COMFORT IN BLOUSES
Women This Season Refuse to Wear
,nythins Heavy During the
Heated Season.

Blouses Of flesh color net or chiffon
are worn as the season advances.
Plain Innings of flesh color are worn
under colored or lace blouses.
Blouses become more and more
ethereal as summer approaches, and,
while many vivid hues are noted, the
fabrics are more and more cobwebby;
two or three of this sheer material
must be worn, one over the other,
or the camisole beneath must have
some substance for decency's sake,
but, even SO, these lingerie combina-
lions are delightfully."- cool and COM
Portable.
The rejuvenated blouse reintroduced
this season is finished with an elastic
band around the waist line, which has
the advantage of distributing the full
ness properly and taking away the
tail" Of the blouse, which would be
too bulky to suit present require
ments below the waist line.

GIVE FINNISH" TO COSTUME
Art Of Dressmaker Shown In tho
Pretty Touches That Adorn the
Models Most Popular.

While tailors use pique for com.
pleting gowns and coats, dressmakers
prefer sheerest lingerie effects for
furnishing walking or home dresses.
A very pretty one is in white crepon,
the skirt trimmed round above the
knees with colored Russian embroid-
cry, and the short coat embroidered
to match round all its outlines. The
fronts do not meet, but leave visible
those Of an elaborate blouse and a
narrow black velvet belt.
Very pretty, too, is white crepon
with two deep gathered flounces at
the waist in spotted crepon, also white.
The waistcoat, deep collar and wide
cuffs are in the spotted crepon, the
color of the spots being sapphire blue.
The belt is made of the plain crepon,
gathered very closely and edged with
cord.

Fancy cut hens continue to be seen
In handkerchiefs.
Steel shoe buckles are In small sizes

Little or no metal Is seen nowadays

spoiled a shoe shine. An obstinate
lock Of hair Kept coming down from
under her helmet
Overcome with q sense of her un-
fitness to ornament the highways, she
began to maneuver into the shelter Of
every shadow. When q low-hanging
branch dashed off her helmet and fear
fully mussed her hair, she decided to
journey to the next signal-station by
way of the alleys.
For half block she trudged down
one Of these alleys where the black
ness was almost as unrelieved as in
cave. In the dark she quickly be-
came again what we are accustomed
to describe as "manful."
A faint noise, something like the
swapping Of piece Of kindling wood,
caught her ear!
1t was followed by the unmistak-
able tinkle Of bits Of glass dropping
on stone. Mamie paused and listened
calmly.
Five minutes later came some more
tinkling Of glass and the thump of
two heels on the pavement. The po-
licewoman pressed a button and the
burglar was illuminated as If by sud-
den spotlight. He scarcely needed to
be told to throw up his hands. Mamie
dexterously acquired his revolver, his
tools and jingling bundle In canvas
bag.
Then she marched him on down the
alley and out in the glare Of an arc
light. They were at the edge of
little park. The alarm box, toward
which the policewoman was headed.
was in a shelter house straight ahead.
When they reached the door of it she
commanded:
Step in!"
She followed him, switching on the
electric lights.
Holy mackerel!" the burglar
gasped. "A woman cop! Pinched by
skirtl"
Put up your wrists!" she ordered.

SLIPS FOR FURNITURE
ARE NOW MADE WITH AN EYE
TO ARTISTIC EFFECT.
In This They Differ From Those In
General Use In the Past-Generai
Directions for Making Them
Successfully.

Do you remember the slips that
mother used to make? Brown they
were, with little narrow red stripes
and sometimes alternating twills!
How ugly they were! And with every
years doing-up they got uglier-with
their yoke all ironed out of shape
and their fiounces askew and their but
tons gaping in the back!
They were the kind mother used to
! make, writes Ethel Davis Seal IN the
Washington Star She is making a
different kind now, and with such
great success that she has passed the
secret on to me!
First OF ALL they virtually are made
on the furniture. A piece Of the mate
rial is pinned on the part Of the chair
one has decided to start with, and
after It is carefully fitted, 1t is cut the
shape, leaving plenty of allowance for
seams. In this way one should care
fully do the whole chair, sewing the
various pieces together as one gets
them cut and trying on many times,
in order to insure perfect fit. Some
times 1t Is found easier to do all the
basting before any part is removed;
for others, working with preliminary
paper pattern may seem easier.
1t Is especially necessary to have
looseness in slip cover; there must
be plenty Of give" to it, Otherwise,
when one sits on it, 1t is apt to burst
open, which would be most discon-
certing, particularly If it happened to
be some one else's chair.

COLOR WAR WAGES MERELY
Two Schools Fight for the Adoption
of What They Consider the Most
Appropriate.

The present war Of color" has
nothing to do with Mexico.
1t has to do with pastel tints versus
futurist splashes
In Paris we have with US the tender
color schemes of Vatican and Lam
crett and the most pronounced futur-
list splashes of the ultra-modern
school.
Several leading dresesmakers are
making determined stand against
violent color-splashes, especially
where evening gowns are concerned.
They argue, and rightly, that wom-
an is at her loveliest in pasteltinted
robes, crowned by discreetly pow
dered hair and q cleverly introduced
patch or two.
They argue that futurist gowns de-
mand futurist surroundings; that for
ordinary evening wear-at theater or
opera-they are unsuitable.
And 30 we are having determined
revival of delicate tints, especially
the exquisite range of pastel pinks
which glide along scale which in
cludes cyclamen. begonia, shell. rose
petal, japonica and many exquisite
shades.
The range Of blue tints is quite as
varied. Blue pastels include score
of colors which run from desert
dawn to Egyptian.
Desert blue is the invention Of an
artist. He says that he first real
lied it when watching the sun rise
over the Sphinx. The same artist has
created All extraordinary shade Of
sapphire blue, shot with rose and pale
gold. He recently made an evening
gown of taffeta in this color The
clinging skirt was draped with fine
black lace with garlands Of gold roses,
framed in black leaves, catching up
the filmy folds.
