With the return to modes Of another
period many quaint details are revealed
in the smart dress Of the present day
This is particularly noticeable in the dis
tinctive cut of the sleeves and the at
tractive collars that frame the face
In the costume pistured at the left an
unusual cuff adorns the sleeve. which
by the way, is exceedingly plain. This
sheathlike cuff. developed in lines that
suggest the graceful curves Of the Nile
lily, forms an uncommon background
for the hand However. the folds are
drawn sharply from the wrist and dec
grated with closely set ball buttons.
The coat indicates the new curve OF
the corset, for in the latest models there
is a tendency to forget the straight lines
that have been so long in vogue.
This model is made of fine navy
sabardine with spreading revers that are

spired by the brass buttoned suit of A
small page. However. the buttons used
on this costume, which is developed i'll an
old gold duvetyne, are of ivory. Ihe
little jacket is cut on kimono lines. whose
long sleeves are completed with turnback
cuffs and Serried rows of ivory buttons.
Although this jacket is somewhat like
an Eton in the back. the ripping tunic
of the skirt is designed to give the ap-
pearance of Il long coat. Buttons also
adorn this skirt. while from beneath the
tunic a softly draped sash is drawn to-
ward the front and loosely knotted.

and the collar. which shows small v
shaped opening in the front. is draped
on the coat. Very different is the collar
of organdies that gives a whimsical touch
to the creation at the left.
Some of the blouses are fashioned from
colored crepes and chiffons. Many have
pleasing decorations of small bows and
tassels. and those that are cut with a
wide yoke that also forms the sleeves are
much favored by the well formed woman.

A pretty sirlish higll-crowned hat is
pictured above. The center of the crown
has been covered with old blue silk and
outlined by a stiffened band of the same.
The sides of the crown are continuous
with the brim. sloping gracefully and
curling back in softly rolled brim.
Bowknots of old blue velvet are applied
about the crown in alienation with little
pink satin roses and foliage. This style
hat is exceedingly practical, being in
good taste If worn with silk frocks or
plain tailormades.

Cornf1owers and hyacinths of the most

WARR!NG LINES IN
STRIPED MATERIALS S

Black and white sounds quiet enough
and may be made into gowns and cos
tunes of good taste and gracefulness
But examples have been seen which con
Vey an exactly opposite impression Take,
for instance. a black and white striped
SILK in which the lines run in every direc-
ton, down. across and round the wearer
oolque stripes meet straight ones
Those on the bodice run from shoulders
to waist, while those on the sleeves run
round the arms.
The top of the skirt fitting very closely
round the figure, is striped horizontally,
but Immediately below it are two very
full founces with the stripes perpendcu-
lar Not to be exaggerated is the dis
tracted impression all these warning lines
convey to the mind. Could the wearer
of such gown be perfectly sane?
Here is another instance of mistaken
attempts at novelty. Wearing such a
gown, one would vainly try to fee, restful
Even the least impressionable girl or
woman must be influenced by the absence
of harmony in her gown. which is the
outcome of a wild dash for novelty.
Non-Irritant Schemes.
But there are very pretty and quite
admirable striped gowns, some of them
in black. gray and green, others in brown
green and blue, all arranged perpendcu-
lariy and free from the teasing incon-
gruity that worries the brain of the spec
tator. One of these with coat to match
is in silk, lined with thinner English
brown silk. 1t has the new fiaring linen
collar. and a pocket at either side is in
brown cloth like the revers and cuffs
This IS a tailored suit and has no eX-
