candy stripes are featured too, in
crepe de Chine and cotton crepes.
There is an especially attractive crepe
de Chine on the market with satin
stripes. This is made up mostly in the
plain tailored blouses with the two
in-one stock collars.
Pongees are also used in this type
of waist, as well as white, and baby
flesh pink crepe de Chine, Georgette
crepes and deeper rose and sold as
blue linens. A military blouse is shown
in pongee with strapped pocket low in
front. This waist has a stock collar
of black silk, with flaring points of
white organdy. 1t is a stunning mod
ell for a pongee coat suit, especially
when worn with one of the new white
kid belts striped with black patent
leather. The roar of the cannon is
echoed in other waists of the season
Rose and blue ribbon are used to car
ry out the effect. Either the waist is
made of rose linen, with the collar and
cuffs faced with blue, or vice versa,
with brass buttons down the front.
None of these waists touch the vog-
ue of the chiffon, net or lace blouse.
Not even the French waist of white
can take their place, for the dress
waist must necessarily blend in with
the color of the skirt to make a COM
plete costume. When the coat is re-
moved at the restaurant, theatre, or
church, many of the new blouses give
the costume the appearance of a one
piece dress. In chiffon models, black
embroidered in silver, brown and blue
predominant, as in the suits themsel-
yes, while the nets and laces are white
or gold over flesh-colored chiffon.
These are usually combined with silk
or satin.

The upper illustration is one of the

The upper illustration is one of the
very newest blouses of this type,
showing the use of satin in a bodice
effect under net. The short sleeves
are the flowing style, with the circu-
lar cuff, used so much where a dressy
effect is desired. Some Of the extreme
models show low necks with short
sleeves; but like Mrs. Vernon Castle
and her monkey, despite predictions,
few will follow the fad. Blouse styles
seek the more natural course. Where
the neck is really low, the sleeve is
short; and with the V-neck and high
collars, long sleeves are worn. Gloves
however, are invariably short, both
with the short and long sleeves. Vic
torian styles are favored, the lace mitt
being worn with the sheerest waists.
White kid gloves are also quaint; Of
ten they are worn with band of
black velvet at the top. Already this
idea of the black band at the top Of
the glove is being carried out in the
glove itself. Some Of the stores have
in their fall stock, white gloves with
black and colored bands at the top
and the fourchettes between the fin
gers hatch this trimming. Heavy en-
broidered bars on the back are an
other feature. Judging from this first
showing, fall will be season Of fancy
gloves, even as spring was season

New York, June %.

In this day of revivals, it is not sur
prising that blouses again find favor.
Summer suits foster their ,pularity.
Indeed, the separate waist and skirt
may be as smart as the one-piece
frock, provided there is a silk coat
to top the costume.
Paris takes special delight in turn
ing out new surprises in sheer waists.
There Isl no name in blousedom that
quite covers these transparent confec-
lions of the famous courturieres. Lin
gerie is too frilly, and tailored is en-
tirely out Of the question, for who
would ever call a pintucked Swiss or
organdy by so harsh a name? They
are original in contour. Strange as
it may seem, coming from Paris, the
source of true color, they are white,
pure white; crispness, the chief charm
of the garment, bespeaking loudly the
midsummer they are made for.
The mystic charm of the French
white wear is woven in every stitch of
these waists; style is secondary
thought.

Unprotected dwellings,, that is dwell
lings in villages having no fire pro-
lection, will be reduced 10 per cent in
annual rates. With the new term rule
this will mean an increase of 1914 per
cent in the three year rates. The to-
tai value of dwellings in unprotected
villages, however, is very small. To
further aid insurers in small villages,
Commissioner Works is preparing a
bulletin showing how, by installing in
expensive apparatus, they could OBJ

about $500 they may be rated in class

An Awning-Striped Blouse with the
New Quaker Collar and Trans
parent Waist with JabOt
Frill.

They are Frenchy, white, and made
for warm weather; further scrutiny
seems a sacrilege. Since they come
from the great fashion center, their
long sleeves, and short sleeves, grace
full V-neck, soft frills and delicate in
serts of embroidery will be copied,
modified and twisted about, again and
again, in the blouses that are made
on this side of the Atlantic.
Already the jabot frill, which or
iginated in Paris, is finding favor
here. One of the blouses above, made
of white Swiss in true fashion, shows
this feature. 1t also has the famous
two-in-one collar, which can be worn
high or turned low, and the ragran
sleeve, which has come to be regarded
as a staple. It is rumored from the
other side that drop-shoulders are the
next step in blouses; in view, however,
of the popularity of the regulation
sleeve, it will take considerable time
to bring about the change. Certain
ly the comfort of the high shoulders
in wash waists will not be relinquish-
ed readily, even if the drop-shoulder
style is easier to make.
At the present time, the set-in
sleeve dominates the fashion, so far
as tailored blouses are concerned, ex-
cept for now and then a raglan. The
treatment of the neck marks the real
difference in styles. Stocks and high
collars, were, in the early season., the
ultra mode, but these have given way
gradually to the broad Quaker collars,
especially for the younger women.
These collars come detached, to wear
with any blouse or dress, in sets with
cuffs to match. The shops show them
in organdy and Swiss, picot-edged,
hemstitched, or with an inch wide
strip Of colored organdy or figured
cretonne around the edge. Whoe col
lars of cretonne are offered, too; they
are extremely attractive on the blue
and pink linen blouses. The style of
the waist must be plain to carry these
broad collars well. Many OF the new
striped blouses show them. There is
one model in particular, broad avn
ing stripe, which has been shown from
one end of the town to the other-not
always in the same material, but new
ertheless always having the same
general appearance, for all Of these
waists are cut absolutely plain. Some
times the material is linen, again null
lie, and even crepe; but the stripes
are ever the broad green, blue, pink or
black, and the collar and cuffs always
the same Quaker style of sheer trans
parent organdy.
: This craze for stripes grows more
pronounced as the season advances.
Not only are the wide awning stripes
popular, but the narrow blazer and

RATES REDUCED.
Insurance Commissioner S. D. Works
Forces Companies to Lower
Rates from 10 to 20 Per Cent

Threatened increases in fire insur-
ance rates throughout the state have
been averted and promises of reduc-
tions which will save owners of dwell
ling houses and business buildings
hundreds of thousands of dollars have
been obtained by the state insurance
department according to an announce
ment made by Insurance Commission
|er S. D. Works. The proposed reduc-
tons will go into effect July /, next.
These reductions are the first re-
suits of the fire insurance rating bill
fathered by Mr.. Works and passed by
the last legislature, giving to the in
surance commissioner power to super
wise rate-making within the state.
The negotiations which resulted in the
reductions have been in progress
nearly two weeks.
Officers of the several making
bureaus in Minnesota early in June
notified Commissioner Works that the
national board of fire underwriters
had decided to raise fire insurance
rates in about dozen states in the
middle West. Mr.. Worke at once no.
titled them that under the authority
of the new rate regulation law he in
tended to resist the increase in Mime
sofa.
A meeting with the national board
was arranged, but before confering
with them Mr.. Works laid the whole
thing before Governor Hammond and
had his unqualified approval to resist
teh proposed advance.
The meeting took place at Chicago
last week. The underwriters were in
clined to rebel at first, but on noti-
fication that he would invoke the aid
of the new rate regulation law to the
limit and would force substantial re-
auctions instead the officers capitulat-
ed.
Under the new schedules fire-proof
buildings all over the state are to be
reduced Is per cent.
All other brick buildings are to
be reduced Is per cent in the southern
division of counties, and 1914 per
cent in the northern division.
Public buildings, both brick and
frame, are to be reduced Is per cent
in the southern division and 1914 per
cent in the northern division.
A reduction Of 20 per cent is to be
made in the annual rate on dwellings
and contents in all municipalities hav-
ing fire protection. The term rule,
however, is changed so that hereafter
the rate for three years will be two
and half instead of two times the
annual rate, and the rate for five
years will be four instead of three
times the annual rate. With the 20
per cent reduction in the annual rate,
the three year rate will remain the
same and the five-year rate will be
increased about 6 and two-thirds per
cent. The number Of dwellings insur-

The little house gown of two ma
terials is causing great deal of at
tention just now Every couturiere
seems intent upon rendering it more
and more attractive, and fresh essays
are made every day to add distinctive
touches. The original design which
is our small contribution to the galere,
while following certain accepted de-
crees, is yet quite distinctive little
scheme. The favorite alliance of vel
vet and Georgette is the selected ex-
preston, and one that never fails to
carry conviction. FavOrs are about
divided so far as the skirt is con-
cerned, the velvet, however, taking a
certain assertive position in front of
the skirt. The little sleeveless cor
sage is slightly indeterminate, a square
slice being taken out beneath the
arm and suggesting that an under
bodice of the Georgette is worn.
The sleeves are clearly of the lat
ter, and note should be taken of their
fashioning, the cut allowing of de-
cided droop at the back of the wrists,
the fullness being subsequently drawn
