CONTRASTING SLEEVES.
Ultra Smart Women Are Wearing
Them Of Combination Material.

Would you be accounted ultra smart?
Then be sure that the shade of your
chiffon sleeves contrasts with that Of
your frock's tone. The difference
need. not be specially sharp. but it
should be distinct, else the combina-
tion will not be convincing. OF course,
you have a black t%affeta, because who
ever is anybody has one of them these
days, and II some one whose criticism
you value has said-in your hearing
that In that frock you look old wo-
manish. why not have IT'S sleeves re-
placed with othars In colored chiffon?
One of the prettiest frocks which a
lately returned society war nurse
brought from Paris has a black taffeta
blouse deliberately embroidered with
canary yellow and bishop sleeves of
the same CHEEKY ton in chiffon. There
is a braided girdle for this frock, but
instead Of primly encircling the waist

II not TERED TO the hips by three wide
ly separated black taffeta bands. With
In an inch of their upper edge the
bands carry a narrow strip OF striped
silk, a thick frilling Of which heads the

The outstanding frilling encircling the
hips is one of the features OF the smart
chiffon taffeta frock for midsummer,
But not with tiresome frequency is 1t

The green composition beads which
your great-grandmother would not APP

She shrank from what she considered
the abandonment of sovereignty to ac-

many men from whom to choose, and
there would be no trouble In making q
