We heard a good story the other day.
1t had to do with the Eennery along
about Easter time. A fond father hav-
ing purchased a lot of colored Easter
eggs dowu town. brought them home,
and fearing the children would find
them before the appointed time, took
them out to the hen house and placed
them under the old Plymouth Rock hen
for safe keebing. Shortly thereafter the
old rooster came along and noticing the
confusion of color, Immediately jumped
over the fence into the next yard and
gave the peacock an awful trouncing.

Costume

THIS summer of 1916 is to be one
of infinite charm from the sar-
4 torial point of view. Fashions
are quaint, fashions are picturesque
and interesting and materials are
ravishingly beautiful. There is every
opportunity offered for the most ex-
ouisite and truly feminine effects.
Women are to be womanly. There IS
not so much as remnant OF the mas
culine element left in her wardrobe,
even the sports costumes are made
of dainty materials. She wears the
daintiest of underwear and petticoats
that are starched and beruffled. She
is feminine from the crown OF her
head to the tip Of her toe. Even her
shoes have lost their severity. She Is
a creature of frills and of furbelows, OF
ribbons and Of dainty materials and
she will make a wonderful picture 1t
she uses her opportunities Alright.
There will be great deal Of white
worn. White always is much worn
during the hot weather. 1t is SO de-
lightfully cool in effect, it is so pleasant
to look upon as well as to wear that it
is a deserved favorite, but this year
there is an added reason for it's popu..
laritv. There is not quite the usual
abundance of dye stutfs. We must
wear white and we must wear certain
quiet tones, but we are using color
to give relief, color in bits, and color
of the most brilliant sort to counteract
the effect. Grey is being extensively
employed for house gowns as well as
for street costumes but the grey cos
tunes are robbed of their Occurrences
either BY brilliant colored rose tucked
into the girdle, by a necktie the ends
of which show beads of rich oriental
colorine, or by some such brilliant
touch. So much as the season is a
season of feminine effects, it also is
season of needlework, naturally the
two 90 hand in hand. Tucks that are
hand sewed, ruf11es that are. hand
shirred, gowns that are shocked or
embroidered, fancy stitchery and every
possible establishment that is known
to the needle woman's art are lash
ionable. Embroidery with silks is ex-
tensively used, also embroidery with
beads, in fact beads are lavishly en-
ployed. That some of the suggestion
comes from the Oriental influence is
true beyond doubt, but the designs
are by no means confined to the East.
Beads are made to produce many novel
and many interesting results. Fascl-
mating blouses of crepe de chine show
simple geometrical forms or the modi-.
fed Greek Fret outlined with crystal
beads that scintilate and simmer.
Neckties of ribbon show ends of ap-
proximately four or five inches thickly
sewn over with beads of quiet tones
such as grey or tan to make tounda-
ton with brilliant rose or two, also
beads, against the background. Gowns
of net or of silk are richly embroidered
with beads and these beads some.
times are applied to give the effect OF
Orientalism that is almost bar
barrie, while again they are used in
single tones, as cut steel, or crystal
or pale pink or whatever the chosen
color may be. Jet is extremely smart
and let beads are beautiful upon white,
upon color and upon black. Free
ouently they are combined with col
ored beads to act as foil, in fact

there is almost no limit to the posi-
hilities of the bead idea. 1t may be
made to do wonderful things and it
requires only ingenuity on the part
of the individual to produce excep-
tional results. Borders OF skirts are
made of beads sewed onto fine net,
scarfs with bead borders are thrown
over bare shoulders and beads indeed
make the trimming feature of the
season. very beautiful bodice OF
champagne colored crepe is enhanced
by embroidery combining beads with
silk threads. The design Is simple
one consisting Of circles connected
by some undulating lines. 1t is the
treatment OF the beads with the en-
broidery that produces the effect.
Within the center of each circle Is
Greek cross formed by four large
wooden beads, Just shade darker
than the crepe. The first circle con-
sists Of a row of these same beads about
as large as small pea. There are
three rows Of blue beads beyond that
and second row of the champagne col
ored wooden beads, then circle about
one-half inch in width which consists
of an over and over stitch in heavy
silk thread and, as finish for that, a
row of the wooden beads larger than
anv seen within. 1t is all very simple.
1t will be easy for any woman who
can hold needle to accomplish but
the idea behind the treatment and
the skill with which the coloro were
plancd are rare.
Georgette crepe is one of the best
liked materials for summer costumes.
1t is used for entire gowns and it is
used in combination with almost every
fabric. 1t is really beautiful with tat
feta or with faille or with gros de
Londres and it is equally attractive
combined with linen and pique. 1t is
an all round useful material and dress
makers are quick to recognize the fact.
One OF the gowns shown here is made
entirely OF the material in white with
the skirt finish and the trimming of
white taffeta and it would be hard to
find anything daintier for summer
wear. At the edge of the skirt is a
binding of wide ribbon approximately
three inches in width and bindings Of
ribbon in such width are to be found
upon many of the newest and hand
soonest costumes.
Ribbon may be said to share the
honors with beads, so largely and law
ishly is it being used as trimming: 1t
makes bands for thin material, it is
worked into girdles. Ribbon neckties
accompany many Of the handsomest
costumes, ribbon is largely employed
as trimming for hats and ribbon sashes
are worn with all summer gowns.
Designers are looking to many
periods but the era of Louis XIV ap.
pears to have taken a. special hold
upon their imaginations, hence we
have a great many pompadour silks
and a great many draped effects:
There is pretty example Of a school
girls afternoon dancing frock shown
in one of the illustrations. Pompadour
taffeta is combined with crepe to give
avery charming contrast and a charm
ing effect. 1t will be noted that the
sleeves are kimono in style. The shape
is so pretty, 20 graceful and SO be-
coming that it never dies. 1t is ex-
tensively used this summer for fancy

Fancy Shoes Are Seen With Every
Costume

bIouses Of thin materials and the fact
that it dispenses with the shoulder
seams, makes it Of inestimable value
for such use.
Color to be successful, must be well
handled. 1t requires either genius
or an expert who has studied the mat
ter carefully from the artistic pont OF
view. When colors are to be COM
bined it is hoped that the best designs
will be taken as models but for the
average woman the single colors make
the wisest selection. Jet is being
largely used on white and steel Is
exquisite on white. Crystal beads are
lovely on blue, pink and other pale
colors and there are various simple
combinations OF the sort that can be
utilized without danger Of going astray.
To combine rich colors after the man
ner of the Orient with success require
a very nice sense OF shade and Of
contrast.
For the coat suits and for one-piece
gowns which make the practical cos
tune of the wardrobe for everyday
use, mohair in various weaves and even
alpaca is advocated. 1t is being used
by the leading French designers and
it is exploited by the various shops in
beautiful colors and effects. 1t makes
a really most attractive material, it is
durable, it sheds dust and it has
much to commend it and when it has
the sanction of distinguished name
in the dressmaker's world, it's vogue
may be said to be fairly we'll estab-
lished. Soutache applied over a.
stamped design as trimming makes a
good effect and is much liked. Bands
of wide braid are used with good
results, too. There seems every rea-.
son to look for costumes Of mohair
worn by women Of unquestioned
standing and filling an important
place. They will be admirable for
shopping, for travelling and for general
morning wear, and while they do not
in any sense, supersede the sege and
the gabardine that have done such
good service, they are added to the
list and mean interesting variety.
Dark blue trimmed with black is a
favorite combination and always a
HdI1QSOlIlc OIlc dIlu tIlc uldSh SouldIiiC
on a blue ground makes an exceed
ingly good effect. s I.~ "..
Silk suits undoubtedly will be ex-
tensively worn for afternoon occa-
sions and the poplin weaves and gros
de Londres are all favorites. Very
attractive costumes Of the sort show
coats and skirts of the silk with bodices
Of chiffon or of tulle or of Georgette
crepe with the silk introduced as
trimming and almost inevitably beads
used in one way or another. They may
only outline the edge, or hold a hem in
place but they are likely to be found
if the costume is new and really
up-to-date. There is scarcely hand
some afternoon costume that does not
give some evidence of the vogue while
evening gowns show beads utilized in
most novel and attractive ways:
Bugles as we'll as round beads are used
and really wonderful combinations of
colored beads are to be found. For
elaborate garnitures, semi-conven-
tionalized flowers make good motifs.
