AFAGPIE effects are conspicuous in
wi parasols, as well as In dresses and
hats for the season of 1914. Black and
white stripes are smart and popular, as
instanced in the novel parasol shown on
this page with the brocaded crepe de Chine
costume. Shape counts for as much as
the covering itself. This particular
novelty has rolling edge not unlike the
upturned brim of a sailor hat. If it were
a rain umbrella, there might seem to be
an excuse for the "gutter" in which to
catch the drips.
Another noticeable fancy black and
white parasol has the stripes running YER
tically on a frame described as the
Minaret, which fashion motif it resembles.
The sides are in panels Joining the top
at sharp angle. In fact there is a
double "roof'' on the inside frame. Black
marabout borders this fancy accessory.
Shirred net or lace covers combined
with ribbon are noticed among the dainty

dress are graceful and very becoming.
For dark silk dress, or n light one. the
same idea can be carried out with the pat
tern for this useful wooden dress. A plain
and a lowered material may be combined
splendidly in the same design also. The
shops are featuring plain poplins, with
novelty ones of the same color ground
having printed flower designs on them.
One or both tunics are made of the fancy,
and the blouse trimming. In wash ma
terials, one tunic might be of lowered
and the other of plain. The three-quarter
sleeve is seen on many new dresses and
separate waists: while the full length
sleeve is so much in evidence, that we can
only conclude both are correct. In all
probability, the shorter sleeves will OBJ
tain for midsummer.
Apropos of sleeves, the latest long silk
gloves are flesh color, to give the effect
of none on the arm. This follows the
Paris fad for flesh colored stockings with
almost any kind of shoe or slipper.
The semi-tailored dress, so indispen-
sable in the practical wardrobe, has not
been forgotten amid the fancy creations
for the opening displays. Here is smart
dress (S1S9) for morning, shopping,
in the skirt is held in by plaits at the
foot, and near the belt, giving the effect
of some fashionable breadths across the
hips, and making the skirt comfortable to
sit in. The blouse is severely plain ex-
cept for vest of soft white crepe do
Chine, turning over in wide collar. Tho
cuffs match, and have an odd and inter
esting fastening of frogs on cord loops,
in lieu of ordinary round buttons. The
model selected to show here as a type Of
simple gown easy to make, and very in
expensive, is made of black and white
wool ratine, costing $1.5O per yard. The
vest is white; and the cording either side
of it, and on the skirt is black moire silk.
The girdle is moire also and to complete
the chic effect, trim little turban is worn
with this gown, being Of black Milan with
a MORE crown and trimmed with fancy
ostrich aigrette.
The price of this and Of each of the other
patterns for illustrations described is Is
cents.

ruffles in the sleeves of this dress. They
are made of net like the vest, and bound.
Here the modish crush girdle is retained.
This model is also intended for cotton
crapes, and ratine.
Speaking of "bound rufles," for sleeves,
calls attention to similar treatment of two
circular founces about the hips of the
lower left figure. The skirt (S212) is
plain and close fitting, narrow at the foot,
and vet cut so as to have the latest sill
houette outline produced by the founces.
It is made of gabardine, a material vie
ing with serge for practical wear; and
one which hangs well. The binding is
taffeta silk cut on the bias. Binding of
braid, on ruf1les for street skirts are ex-
ceeding!y smart again, with a similar
finish on the jacket worn with it. Ribbon
velvet is also much used as the finish of
lace or net rufdes.
Still the upward tilt of skirts in front
is seen. Two tunics, cut slightly circu-
lar, so as to fit the hips snugly are the
feature of very practical and becoming
skirt in model (S195). As shown, the
model is made of lightweight summer
suiting, with fancy ribbon vest and cuffs,
and soft silk girdle. The lines Of the

parasols, which like oil other articles of
feminine adornment are more or less fussy.
It is quite the correct thing to trim your
parasols as you would your hats. Para
soils handles are long to allow for the
height of hats of the moment. Some
handles are of jet or irridescent
beads; others are Of natural wood, -
plain or carded ; and still others have
tops or knobs of colored quartz.
Dressed in the attire which Paris de-
signers are now featuring, many s,nartly
gowned women look as If they walked out
of some olden time pictures. Vatican
and Directoire hats have been reproduced
from portraits. Quantity picturesque are
the latest plateaux of straw or velvet with
loops Of ribbon feathers, or flowers piled
high at the back. A pretty and new
way of trimming small sailor shape APP
pears in the band of black satin ribbon,
and bow under the brim of the hat on the
lower left figure.

FASHION has set her seal of approva,
l. on as many fancy handbags and
reticules as one can have. To be quite
correct, one chooses this adjunct to match
or accord with this or that costume. The
shopping bag Of leather is out of place
with the afternoon toilette, or reception
gown and the theatre or opera calls for
still different and more dressy bag.
Odd and unusual shapes are in especial
favor. Two bags like some Of the newest

Poiret is said to have passed the comment

The charge will be denied, when the gay

are wondrous designs in rich taffeta silks,
soft satins, moires, and printed ratines,
and on the other, dainty lowered, striped

for summer frocks. The latter are eff
