group of three of the latest sum- mer blouses pictured in the illustra- tion given here, shows some of the new finishing touches by which manu- lecturers accomplish variety in mak- ing these waists. They are of pongee and crepe-de-chine. Machine hem stitching and buttons are the features depended upon for decoration, and occasional little oddities in the cut of collar and cuffs or yoke and body give individuality to the design.
 At the left a plain waist of pom gee, also made in crepe, has seams set together with machine hemstitching. The long, plain sleeves are finished at the wrist with a henstitched band instead of cuffs. Buttons are set on in groups and are often in red, green or black; the brightest of the green or red shades are used.
 At the right dainty waist of crepe se-chine is embroidered at each side with a flower spray in the shoulder seams, an insertion of venetian lace is set in. Hemstitched plaits down the front elaborate the model further, and the sleey es are long. The high collar is finished with hemstitching llso. Round pearl buttons finish this model, which is dressier in character than the others.
 At ths center a smart model is

Both the wedding gown and the wedding veil, according to the man. dates of the powers that be in making styles, may be either long or short. according to the fancy of the bride. The little, youthful maiden usually en- joys very much the glory of the long trained wedding gown, but if she would be original, or independent, she has an opportunity now to be correct ly garbed in the most youthful of short skirts.
 For materials, chiffon, lace, voile and net, or satin, yelled with any one make the strongest appeal to the brides of this particular June. Elm broidery of silver and seed pearls ap- pears on the most splendid of wedding gowns and lace, especially if it be old and precious and has adorned the brides of the family before, comes in for worshipful attention.
 In the matter of the veil, few cap like arrangements on the head appear as compared with more simple adjust ments. Orange blossoms or jasmine flowers make the wreath and some veils fall over the face, reaching just below the chin or to the waist line at the front. At the back the veil for the short dress may fall only to the inees
 The splendid wedding gown shown m the picture is made with the con- eentional long train, but is cut "V'' lhaped at the neck. The bodice is yelled with chiffon and the tulle veil falls from wreath of orange blos- soms over the figure to the end of the flower-trimmed train.
 The bridesmaids gowns are made of n, thin material having graduated bands of satin around the full, straight skirts, the widest band forming the border at the bottom. The bodices of chiffon and satin are made with round Dutch necks and f1ounces, heightened

Cheap Dust Caps.

There is no excuse for getting the hair dusty, for dust caps can be bought in pretty prints in pink or violet and white for 12 cents each.
 These are really pretty caps, with an elastic to keep them snug at the back, and standing of ruchelike frill about the face. They are useful not only for sweeping and dusting, but for cooking.
 They keep any possible dust from the hair safely out of the way and they also keep the odors of cooking from entering the hair-'where they would cling tenaciously

Long, slim queues with bright beads on the one end and saucy little hats on the other make Fifth avenue in New York look like the road to Man dalay. There are cunning little hats shaped like pagodas which are trimmed with applied terra cotta cher ries. One of these hats has an un- derbrim of black patent leather braid and the black silk tassel on top stands up straight. A black, tasseled ribbon streamer completes the hat. me chin-chin'' hat has a crown of shlrred silk. The black milan rim covers both eyebrows and stops at nothing save the lashes. A queue of braided ribbon hangs at the back which has a tassel of jet beads at the end, reaching be, low the waist.

shown having a plain round yoke. It is made of white crepe-de-chine and the body is set to the yoke with hem stitching in black silk thread. In keeping with this novel innovation the small, round buttons are of black jet.
 The odd collar and cuffs are cut with points; the collar having three that are hemstitched. Each point is fin ished with one of the jet buttons. They are wired to support them, and turned back when the waist is worn. Buttons decorate also the pointed cuffs. All stitching in this model is done in black silk.
