Accordion pleated chiffon negliges and
matinee jackets are among the dainty
items of apparel offered for next sea-
son, and with September weddings
looming near and the finishing touches
to be put to innumerable trousseaux, a
suggestion for pretty and becoming
boudoir garment seems timely.
The sketch illustrates an exception
ally dainty model, employing for it's
foundation accordion pleated chiffon of
any preferred pastel shade, with a
jacket which may be either entirely of
lace or of chiffon trimmed in lace.
back view of the garment is Of
fered and the front is exactly like it,
except that the decolIetage is a trifie
more pronounced and the jacket ends a
few inches longer.
If desired this garment may be
mounted on an underslip Of satin in
blending or contrasting color.
Satin will be used quite extensively
in the development of neglige gar
very fetching little tea or dinner
gowns are being shown combining
chiffon, satin and lace, with perhaps, a
touch of velvet for good measure.
Metal laces and touches Of metal EN-
broidery. as well as satin and metal
brocades in dainty patterns, are ia
vored for neg!ige garments by those to
whom money-either spent OF saved
is not serious consideration
The chiffon and lace garment illvs-
trated need not be expensive; it could
easily be made at home, and it is very
dainty and becoming.
Note the shirred and banded woke
which holds the garment in place

there" he grumbled and once more dis
appeared. He passed the word along to
all the pollywogs that If they wanted to
grow up to be respectable and respected
Frogs they must keep away from the bull
rushes that morning, and find some other
place to play. Then he climbed up on
his big green lilypad to watch for foolish
the Heron.
1t was some time before Longlegs
suspected that anything was wrong. He
just concluded that he had been seen
when he arrived He counted on this
being forgotten if he kept perfectly still.
He knows how easy it is to forget.
IF l keep perfectly still those who saw
me come will forget all about it or else
think that 1 have gone away thought
he. So he stood among the bulrushes
without moving for the longest time. Had
thought him asleep unless you had hap
pened to see his eyes. There was moth
ing sleepy about these. They were very
bright and keen as they watched for
some sign of careless ,minnows or heed
less pollywogs.
So Longlegs stood among the bulrushes
and waited and waited, perfect image
of patience. all the time growing hun
grier and hungrier. Not single silvery
gleam of a minnow. not the wriggle of a
pollywog's tail did he see. 1t was strange,
and try his luck somewhere else. but he
remembered that patience is almost sure
to be rewarded sooner or later, and so he
waited and kept on waiting like the good
fsherpan that he is. And at last his
patienSe was rewarded. He saw a school
of little minnows playing about and COM
ing nearer and nearer to the bulrushes.
