 By MAY MANTON

I HERE is dress that is absolutely F simple in all its lines. easy to
 make and youthful in the ex- tremc, yet because it is made of dotted taffeta and trimmed with ruchcs of plain silk, it is very dressy in effect and can be utilized for all afternoon occasions and even for the informal dinner. There is a straight skirt and a tucked blouse with slightly full sleeves. Nothing could be less trouble to make, yet it gives the smartest and best lines. Here the neck is cut in V 7haPe and little ruching of silk makes fe finish. but q little yoke can be
 ided if q high neck is wanted. Tn che back view, the dress is shown made of cotton voile with ruffles of the same and with yoke of net. but as rule girls will like the open neck the better and it is to be pre- ferred for girlish necks are very apt to pretty and the lines are good. In this

instance, the trimming is arranged on deep points, but the skirt is perfectly plain and consequently can be trimmed in any way with the straight ruffles shown in the back view. evenly spaced. or with the ruches put on as they are here, or. the lower edge of the skirt could be cut out in scallops, points or battlements and bound. for all these treatments are fashionable and they all are good.

yVTHATEVER other folk may feel, w it is quite certain that there is
 no garment in the wardrobe quite so we'll appreciated by the little children as the rompers in which they can play and be happy without con slderstion of clothes Here are four excellent ones, each different from the other. each in good style and each practical. No. S6SI is quite novel m cut and in shape. yet so simple that !; cl,; ne run up in almost no time and T :s thoroughly comfortable and satis- .sr.o-y. The leg portions are but .pncd together as shown in the small view and there is an opening at the trent of the body portion. Tn the picture. striped galatea is trimmed with plain.
 For ? year size will be needed 5l yds. of material 27 or 36 in. wide, 12 yd. for the trimming.
 No. s24o is especially designed for the little girls although the wee boy will not object to wearing it. The :uicks at the front are pretty and becoming and the garment is alto Scther very attractive one. Here, F is made of white linen trimmed s'ith blue. It would be equally pretty and extremely fashionable if it were made of white with trimming of flow cred cretonne.
 For the 4 year size will be needed 5>s yds- of material 27 in. wide, 2L
Arizona republican., 1915-07-26

yds. 36, with T15 yds 2 in. wide for the belt and trimming.
 No. S6SI Is masculine in effect. The trousers and body portion are separate and the trousers are finished with wide belt. The two arc buttoned together, therefore in place of the body portion can be used suspenders if they arc better liked. Either style is essen italy bOylike and consequently sure to please the small wearer Checked gingham is the material of which the rompcrs in the illustration are made and the trimming is the same ma terial in plain color. The body DOT tion can be made with high, square or round neck.
 For the year size will be needed 2H yds. of material 27 in. wide. I5s yds- 36, $s yd. 27 in. wide for the belt, collar and cuffs.
 No. S747 is quite novel The rom pers or over-alls are made separately and buttoned into place at the shoul- ders. They are adjusted over the blouse which is of course made of different material and this blouse can be either shirred or smocl1ed. Here, the over-alls are made of linen serge and the blouse is of white lawn.
 For the 4 year size will be needed 25T yds. of material P in. wide, yds. 30 for the over-alls and for the blouse or guimpe will be required, IL yds. 26 m. wide

VARIETY

or figured silk with plain sleeves and trimming, or crepe or taffeta could be used for the bodice and skirt with crepe de chine for the trimming DOT tions. There will be a great deal of iaille silk worn during the coming sea- son and 1t is very handsome in con trast with satin or crepe. and with the velvet that will be worn later. If simpler frock is wanted, wool crepe or wool voile would be pretty with taf- feta for trimming.

h TO material of the summer is pret-
 V tier or more fashionable than
 striped voile and this garment shows It most attractivclv used. for the under bodice Is of sheer white oryandie and the contrast is really fascinating one Women who are replenishing the wardrobe or who are starting out for a late holiday, will be exceedingly glad of the modcl for 1t Is very simple and easy to make and the gown Is thoroughly smart and up-to-date, dreSSy enough for any daytime function. The voile IS Essentially dainty and with the crgandie makes just as pretty a costume as could he suggested, but there is no design ot the season that cannot bc copied in many different materials. This one can be Cop.ed in fouiard, tafFeta or cotton crepe or in any similar material with the under bodice ot organdie as 1t is here or oi GeorSette crepe or net or of whatever iuaV best suit the material of the gown. Iat!eta with organdie Is very charming and may of the narrow striped taifctas are essentially summcr-li!le and charming Tn effect For the coming season. the material Is promised extended vogue and there are also silk and wool fabrics that would make up most att-aCtiNclv in just this way. The skirt can be cut in two or in three pieces; it is hcmmed and tucked and the. tucks serve the double purpose of trimming and of adding weight to the lower edge. The under blouse and the over-boCiice are finished separately and the over bodice extends below the waist-Iine at the hack, while the fronts form sash ends that are knOtted over it.
 For the medium size the under blouse will require yds. of material 30 in. wide, and the over-bodioc. 2}4 yds. P in wide, 21s yds. 56, I15 yds. II and for the skirt, 9l2 yds. 2, 714 yds. s6. 5s4 yds. IT.

IT IS always the simple dress that is
 the becoming one for the little girls
 and the one that wins the greatest admiration. Here IS a charming little one with q tuck over each shoulder to provide fulness and with straps under the arms to hold that fulness comfort ably in place. IL Is worn over a separate suimpe and here the dress is of plaid gingham while the guimpe Is of batiste. II the high vaist-line IS not found be- coming, the belt arranged a little below the natural line can be used instead of the straps and the neck edge can be cut round in place of square and the sleeves made in any preferred length. For the dress of white or Colored linen. the round neck line is pretty with the neck and sleeve edges finished with scallOps and linen makes a desirable dress for all seasons of the year. The guImpe Is a simple little one with AmOno sleeves.
 For the 6 year size the dress will re quire 5 yds. of material 27 in wide, 214 yds- 36- yds. 4, with 13 yd. 27 for the trimming and for the guimpe will be needed, yd. 36.

TNIiE practical useful skirt with the
 separate shirt waist makes cos
 tune available for so many diff fercnt needs that it really is always in demand. The designs shown here arc new and interesting for they not alone show what ls .atcat for summer wear. they also point to what will be worn during the autumn. I oke effects on the blouses are exceedingly well liked and bOX-plaits on both short waists and skirts are in demand. This blouse being finished with hens at the front edges is really an easy one to make, for which reason II should mako an appeal to the home dressmaker The skirt Is cut in five gores, but all the seams are con cealed by the box-plaits and since these last are laid on indicating lines. they represent no difficulties and the box plaited skirt has the great advantage of giving long lines and an effect of slen- derness to the figure at the same time that they provide fashionable flare. In this case, the skirt Is made of the cotton gabardine that has proved sIch well deserved favorite for warm weather wear and the blouse Is made of tub silk but every material that can bc finished in tailored style is appropriate for the skirt, whether 1t is wool or linen or cotton and for the blouse can be used any one of the tub silks, cotton voiles. handler- chief lawns or heavier linens and fashion now allows q choice Of the all white waiss or white waist with colored trimming or the colored waist and the col0rcd waist with white trimming. while stripes also are to extend their favor indefinitely.
 For the medium size the' blouse will require 3l3 yds. of material 2 in. wide, 2}4 yds. 36, 215 yds. A and for the skirt will be needed 713 yds. of material P in. wide, 5I4 yds. 30 or 4.
