A costume of blue tulle, for example, is made with very full draped skirt that suggests the tunic idea. and little bolero jacket that opens over the square neck and very wide swathing girdle of old rose velvet. Mousseline de soie in an cX- quiste shade of red is completed by a belt of mauve, embroidered in Oriental coloring. One of the most leautiful of all the gowns was of the mousseline de soie in the new yellow known as Chartrouse. and showed the edges of the corsage embroidered in gold threads and the edges of the skirt which consists of full tunic over a moderately wide foundation, arc left quite plain, without any trimming whatever. For summer, nccks are moderately low, shoulders arc draped and sleeves are apt to be seen unless the gown is designed for the dance or for some really formal evening func- tion.

terials made on beautiful lines and with reserve in trimming is fcre- gone conclusion. Broadcloth is prom ised great vogue for gowns as well as for street costumes. A very beautiful advance model from the house of Cheruit is made of white broadcloth of the softest, most pliable sort and consists of a very full faring skirt, open at the front and gathered at it's upper edge. with perfectly simple blouse of the same material. with long. close sleeves, but oren, V-shaped neck and tapering rolling colIar-the collar and the belt are of Navy blue tafTeta. There is one single button and but ton-hole closing the blouse and there are tow buttons with two button holes that close the opening of the skirt. These buttons are of the cloth embroidered. It would be difficult to find simpler costume and it would be equally difficult to find more effective one. If we may look for a seas on of such things, we may also look Tor ] season of good taste.

LATEST PADS AND RANCHES OF FASHION

TOW far the serious conditions
 abroad have their reflection
 in the designs, it is rather the part of psychology than that of fashion to assert, but the fact remains that there have come some really ex- quisite creations. but lacking alto gcther the elaboration that so often has made a feature of the French houses designs. The loveliest, dain- tiest fabrics are worn-organdie is a pronounced favorite, colored organdies are made up into marvellously attract i've gowns for daytime wear. tulle, simply treated, is favorite for even- ing and for dinner occasions and even when richer materials are used the designs are simple. Skirts are volumi- nously wide, but even voluminous width does not mean bulk when thin materials are used and the softest fabrics arc the most fashionable. Gaiety is really at its height in the resorts and some of the most fasci- hating costumes arc to be met at dinners. dances and occasions of similar sort. In group of five notable examples. only one was found of any material heavier than tullc or mousse hnc-two were of tulle and two were of the silk mousseline that is almost equally soft and diaphanous. Flounced skirts and tunic skirts make the rule. with bodices draped most charningly and perhaps with just little bit of brilliancy or contrasting color found in the girdle or in some touch of

est of all things. They are made very simply, as the material must be to give the best result, and they are trimmed with little lrillings and petal effects and with ruff1es and all that goes to make frou-frou, for Iatistes and muslins of all sorts go hand in hand with such finish They are wonderfully dainty and 1t is not sur prising that they have gained their vogue.
 As is commonly the case in July, we are hearing all sorts of rumOrs as to what the new models will be, and it seems fairly established that we shall see pale colorcd batistes in com bination with other fabrics for autumn costumes. An exceedingly beautiful gown of sapphire blue liberty silk. is, for example. made with guimpe of Iale blue batiste and pale rose batiste has teen seen in combination with q deeper rose colorcd linen. lust how far the use of colored accessories will supersede the white ones, only time can show. tut the tendency is to be noted and. at the moment, the collars and cuffs of blue or rose as the case

A SMART BROCK WITH NEW
 AND INTERESTING FEATURES

MERE are all sorts of charming
 materials being offered for the
 late summer betN en-seasons time. but the crepes, both those of all silk and of silk and wool are especially attractive. This frock shows one with pipings of velvet and the contrast of materials is a charming one. The dress is unusual too and in every way desirable The wide belt is lifted just little above the n 1rmal line and the sleeves with their faring cuffs and puffs or organdie below are exceed ingly dainty and attractive. Made as 1t is shown here. the dress is an excellent one for all afternoon occa- sions. In the back view. it is shown made of white gabardine braided with soutache: that suggestion is a good one for different occasions and is excellent to be borne in mind for the coming season. The high collar is liked by many girls and Is exceedingly smart but is not necessary for the neck can be finished without it and the sleeves can be made plain. The skirt is in two pieces and it and the blouse are joined by means of a narrow belt, the wide trimming belt being adjusted over it. The blouse is closed at the front. the skirt invisibly at the left side.
 For the I6 year size will be needed 612 yds. of material 27 in. wide. 5 yds. 36, Al yds. A with 12 yd. of velvet for piping, 5s yd. 36 for the under sleeves and yds. of lace 312 in. wide for the sleeve frills and the collar.

 The tafeta gown has become a real necessity. It is a delightful material to wear and so generally satisfactory, that it is put to numbcrless uses. Women who are considering late summer trip to the Exposition or any holiday outing of the sort, will find the taffeta costume one of the most avail able and satisfactory that can be included in the wardrobe.
