nary Tubing would ruin their texture.
For the June bride is set of white
chiffon Observation-Disclosures, pantalon
and nightgown. The chiffon is accor-
dion plated, the chemse and gown
having shallow yokes and the panta-
lon ribbon belt. The accordion
plated chiffon is hemstitched to the
yoke. the chemise being supported on
the shoulder by white ribbons while
the nightgown is more elaborate, with
short sleeves edged with plated chf-
fon frills
Shell pink batiste lingerie floods the
market this season and these once lux
urious garments may now be worn by
anybody for prices are extremely reas-
enable The delicate pink tint washes
out after a while but a little rose
colored crepe paper in the rinsing
water will restore it-this hint for
the laundross. A pink batiste night
gown with pink satin ribbon run be-
tween groups of pin tucks to define
an Empire yoke, may be had for a
dollar; dainty pink batiste chemise
for the same price. For a pink crepe
de chine gown or chemise one must
pay from two or three dollars upward.
New this year are niGhtgowns of
very sheer striped batstc, material
almost as transparent as chiffon. The
satiny stripping on the Eauzy ground
gives charming effect of GOODNESS.

Is entirely made by hand, even to the
buttonholed slashes through which the
pale pink ribbons are run in yoke and
sleeve.
The petticoat takes on a new lease
OF life, this summer, with the in
creased fullness of skirts. Even the
cheaper models at a dollar and under
are considerably fuller than last year.
and one may obtain nainsook and en-
broidery petticoats in five and six
yard width-paying a substantial price
of course for so many yards of en-
broidery trimming. one very pretty,
moderately priced petticoat has a bias
hounce of nainsook inset with lace and
embroidery medallions and three rows
of lace trimming; another model has
an embroidery fiounce set on over
rows of lace. There are very wide
nainsook petttcoats distended with one

The coat of rose-colored wool Jersey
is loose and informal in line and the
pouch pockets, carelessly tied sash
crease the suggestion of easy comfort.
The skirt of wool jersey matches the
coat and the roll-brim sport hat Of
rose colored straw has crown of rose
and white striped silk. Very correct
sport shoes of white glazed kid, with
white rubber soles and heels complete
this excellent tennis costume. The
knitted sport coat has n style all its
own, partly due to its extreme length
and partly to the dainty collar and
cuffs which are of white and black
worsted. the coat itself being in a soft,
sage green tone. Another distinctive
touch is the very broad trimming band
which runs down the front edges and
around the bottom of the coat. This
band is knitted with two threads of
the green Shetland wool: collar and
cuffs are knitted with black and white
Germantown wool. A particularly
smart velvet-trimmed sport hat ac-
companies this green sweater-coat
The hat is of cream milan with
broad black velvet band and bow and
several large pearl headed pins thrust
through the black velvet. Below the
green coat is skirt of green and
white striped panama cloth. cut In bias
cores so that the stripes meet OBJ
liquely at the seams A skirt Of this
sort should be about three and half
yards wide at the foot-four II one
wishes a very good fare. This skirt

not more dressy, formal costume
but the combination of satin frock
and pale blue, hcliotrope and rose coat
was the last word in daintiness. This
maid wore a big, shady sport hat of
white straw and pale blue satin, and
her buttoned boots of white washable
kid had high tops and high, curved
heels. Beside her at the tea-table sat
a pretty girl. glowing after an after
noon of tennis. She, too, was cor
rectly CARRIED in sport raiment. in
short skirt of white pique, MILDLY Of
crash, rubber soled tennis shoes Of
white kid with brown glazed kid trim
mings and sweater of brown worsted.
The two costumes illustrated very well
attire this summer.
The velvet crowned sport hat Is
particularly smart feature OF the sea-
son. 1t is usually IN broad brimmed
sailor shape, OF straw, and velvet is
draped closely over the crown, or
pulled loosely over It in tam fashion.
grosgrain ribbon tied in a careless
bow covering the joining OF velvet to
hat around the base of the crown.
One may tie the ribbon bow any
wilere---at the center front, or back, or
toward one side. according to fancy
or becomingncss. And By the by. when
trimming your own sport hat, do not
purchase narrow grosgrain ribbon for
the crown band, the ribbon should be
wide enough TO double in half for both
band and bow. and If you secure picot-
edged ribbon the effect will be
smarter.
Three Good Sport Coats.
OF the three sport coats pictured on
today's page, the striped silk model is
the most formal; but any Of these
coats will "ft the picture" in the out
door life of summer. The silk coat is
Of heavy pongee In cream shade with
orange stripes; collar, belt and trim
ming band are in plain orange.
This coat is lined with orange satin
of a lighter shade than the collar and
fastens easily with one fastening at
the waistline. The model may be had
also In other color combinations.

Pantalets With the Bathing Suit.

The full boomers which accompan-
led last seasons short bathing tunic
have retired in favor of frlled panta-
lettes which are the newest coquetry
Of the coquettish bathing costume.
Pictured is a very modish little bath
ing suit of white taffeta, slashed and
piped in various captivating ways on
skirt and bodice and worn over pam
talettes Of rose and white striped tat
feta. The circular founce of the skirt
Is lined with the same striped silk and
the white satin bathing slippers are
laced up with pink ribbons over white
silk stockings. To match this engag-
ing bathing costume there is a Coolie
hat Of white rubber with fitted head
piece to protect the hair and trim
ming of pink rubber. White or flesh
colored stockings are very much the
thing" with bathing suits this season
and one has become so used to them
that the eye is no longer startled by
the obvious suggestion of bare legs be-
tween dark bathing skirt and slippers.
For the Horscwoman.
For summer days, naturally, is the
cool riding suit of biscuit-toned crash,
trim and correct to the last detail and
accompanied by irreproachably cor
rect accessories. The cross saddle
riding habit is no longer stared at
askance; it has been adopted for town
wear in the park as we'll as for infor-
NAL country wear and the percentage
Of women riders who cling to the old.
dangerous side saddle costume grows
smaller and smaller. This riding rig
OF biscuit crash comes from an undis-
puted authority on riding garb for
women and the cut OF the coat, giving

fes OF embroidery being set on from
hem to knee. Color Is feature OF
the summer petticoat which does not
depend on bow OF ribbon for Its
coquetry. Very charming models have
fiounces scalloped and embroidered In
color, the embroideries taking the
form of bees, butterflies and even
birds, as we'll as flowers. Then there
are petticoats OF white silk-taffeta
or washable satin-and even of white
sateen. with featherbone cordings or
facings to make them set out crisply
from the ankles. All these petticoats
are beautifully fitted over the hips
with a snap fastened closing rather
than the bulky, old-style drawstrinss.
An elaborate dancing petticoat OF
net and lace is distended with feather.
bone tubing over the hips. The trim
ming of pink ribbon in bands and fes-
toons is very coquettish and under the
distended lace petticoat is another of
accordion plated net with a smoothly
fitting satin yoke over the hips.

from wool to muslin when warm
VA weather arrived; nowadays the
y change is from silk to chiffon.
Bulky underwear has gone out of
vogue and the softer and finer lingerie
garments are, the more is milady en-
tranced by them.
The very latest underwear fabric
is chiffon - perishable enough surely
to suit the most extravagant taste. but
an how lovely are these floating. fllmy
Cumberland how irresistible! Chit
fon sets for the June bride include
niGhtgown, chemise and pantalon; or
nightgown and envelop chemise. the
latter combines two undergarments In
one. More and more women each year
say the shops are taking to envelope
chemises. They solve a problem in
the eliminating OF bulk under the
frock; they simplify dressing in a
hurry, and they are delightfully."- cool
and comfortable for summer. The
envelope chemse is donned under the
corset, taking the place of chemise and
drawer. over the corset go brassiere
and petticoat; making, IN addition to
the corset, only three articles of I'M
derwear to be conned. Could any
thing be simpler?
Chiffon lingerie In rainbow effect is
the last word In luxurious underwear
Two layers OF chiffon are used and the
combinations are enchanting; rose
over pale daffodil, mauve over pink,
flesh over ciel blue and even black
over white. The garments are made
with extreme simplicity for of course
the color combination IL the frst
