TO where Lenora was bending over
her desk.

little exclamation. Immediately in

apparently of sticks and bamboos,
with stronger framework behind
The sloping roof was grass.grown and
entwined with rushes. The only apol-
ogy for a window was queer little
hole set quite close to the roof.
There was a rude,loolting door, but
Quest, on trying 1t. found 1t locked.
They walked around the place. but
found no other opening. All the time
from inside they could hear queer
seutiiing sounds. Lenora's cheeks
grew paler.

She clung 10 his arm. They were

been already crouched for the spring,
was suddenly relaxed. The knees
trembled.

Dainty Garments Are Maze
of Lace, Ribbon and Silk
Easily Made.

one sometimes thinks. in these
modern days of luxury, that lingerie
can become no more beautiful than il
has been. Chiffon and silk, lace, tulle
and crepe de chine are all so lovely
in texture and have all been SO Law
ishly and effectively manipulated in
lingeries and negligees that the limit
of daintiness seems 10 have been
reached. Yet each season shows un-
dergarments lOvelier than those of the
last. and this season is no exception.
All the usual fabrics (usual for the
last few years. are still employed. As
far as fabrics go there Is not much
that is new. And one thing is notice
able about present-day lingerie. espe-
cially when it is made at home. Lace
is not so lavishlY used as it was once
upon a time. The war has stopped the
importation, even the manufacture. Of
many kinds of lace, and we must be
content to use such left-Overs as we
can get.
However. the situation is not Sc
rious. SO far as our convenience is
concerned, and lace of many sorts
may still be had. In the lingerie one
buys in the shops the difference is
hardly noticeable, for probably the
manufacturers had made much of the
lingerie now shown before the trouble
was pronounced.
Even if lace becomes scarcer and
scarcer. we may still have lovely lin
gerie. for embroidery can easily be
substituted as a decoration, and net
and tulle and other flmy fabrics can
be used to give the desired dajntiness
to the garments.
Taffeta is already much used for
underwear. and that is not trimmed
new pussy willow taffeta nightgowns
made in the simplest manner, with a
little picot finish at neck and arms.
They are sleeveless, and Grecian in
their simplicity of cut There are
two long Sits for the arms and the
gown hangs in folds and lines of great
beauty.
Camisoles are as attractive as they
have been ever since the use of chif-
fon and crepe de chine for underwear
began. The camisole proper has two
bands of ribbon or strips of lace over
the shoulders. And, as this has been
found wanting for some uses, the
little sachet, a camisOle with two
tiny lace sleeves just at the shoulders
and tops of the arms has been de-
vised This little garment is decided
ly useful to wear under transparent
blouses.
OF winter wear crepe u6 cHlne
bloomers are in favor. They really
give much warmth and they are, at
the same time, dainty and easily
landered. No fabric was ever used
that had more in its favor than crepe
de chine. IT stands laundering we'll
and is decidedly durable. OF course,
pink crepe de chine can not be treat
ed to coarse soaps and long boiling,
but neither can fine muslin.
Colored lingerie is more and more
worn, especially with negligees. Some
in yellow crepe de chine and chiffon,
with ribbons of pale violet, has lately
been shown, and soft green lingerie
is another novelty.
