Frills that trim the waist and fall in iabot like softness are exceedingly smart just now and here is a blouse that shows that feature. Here, it is made of the Georgette crepe that seems such an especial favorite but it could be copied in variety of materials and there are new crepes on the market that arc a little heavier than Georgette and which yet do not shrink as seriously as does crepe de chine and are admirable for blouses of the sort. There are numberless cotton materials. The voile is greatly liked and linen in the form of hand- kerchief lawn is being much used. It is found in beautiful stripes and in plaincolors. Thetub silks meana very generous variety. In this case the frills match the blouse but they can be made of a thinner material as Geor- gette crepe on taffeta. Colored waists with white trimming are much liked. Rose color or blue voile with the frills either of the same or of white banded with color would make pretty effect. The blouse is just. a simple one with full fronts and plain back and if the fri!ls are not liked they can be omitted. ]
 For the medium size will be needed. 4 yards. of material 27 inches wide, .3N yards 36 or 2 1s yards A.

Skirts that are made of material in rather broad stripes arc among the best liked for wear with separate waists. This one is especially well adapted to striped material for it is made in two pieces with the back lapped onto the front after an unusual manner. It gives very smart effect and extremely graceful lines and it shows the stripes to advantage. The fullncss at the back can be arranged in gathers or in box plaits. It Is a generously wiic skirt that flares fashionably yet is not so wide that it becomes cumbersome to wear, consequently it is perfectly adapted to tramping and to the various outdoor exercises of the summer season. The blouse is made with a square yoke be- low whichitis isbecominglyfull Mere. it is shown with one of the new high collars but many women will like the blouse made with an open neck and 1t Can be cut out at the front and finished with sailor collar if preferred. The material illustrated is cotton Voile and there IS no better one for the summer blouse but there are various others that are equally fashionable. Handkerchief lawn is being extensively used, the cotton crepes are much in vogue and there are a number of tub silks that are greatly liked for simple waists, crepe de chine, Georgette crepe, light weight taffeta, habutai and the like. If the striped skirt is not liked, the pattern can be used for plain material and the blouse made either of plain or of striped, for stripes are much liked for blouses as we'll as for skirts and in- deed make an important feature of summer fashions. White blouses with trimming of color are much in vogue, too, and this one would be pretty made of blue or of rose colored voile with the collar and cuffs of white or the white waist could be trimmed with color, all such combinations being fashionable.
 For the medium size the blouse will require, 3H yards of material 27 inches wide, PA yards 36,or2 T yards A; for the skirt will be needed, 312 yards 36, 3I yards A or 3 yards 54 it is 3 yards and IA inches at the lower edge.

sible to figure how great. a part the
