which really is a revival, is our old
friend alpaca. It is made into ex-
ceedingly smart tailored suits and it is
as lustrous and as handsome as it was
when it was in vogue years ago. 1t
makes most satisfactory costumes for
travelling, for motoring and the like
for il sheds dust and it is light of weight.
A very smart one, that is typical of the
way the material is handled by the
best designers is made with a per-
fectly plain haring skirt and with a
fitted coat that flares moderately over
the hips. This coat is held by three
buttons and buttonholes at the waist
line and is finished with a collar that
can be rolled open or turned up about
the throat. The stitching on the coat
makes its only trimming A suit Of

finished with high military collar and
both the collar and belt are finished
with embroidery in beige color. A
second costume is again in Russian
blouse style but with an open neck
and has pretty embroidery OF the same
shade on the collar and pockets. II

have at least two serviceableA and satis-
factory materials for between seasons
wear.
The newest separate blouses are in
teresting for many reasons. A pretty
one is made of pink taifeta embroidered
in gold and silver. 1t is Of course
designed Tor a dressy costume, but it is
extended to form its own peplum and
is finished with a half low round neck
and circular collar The belt is really
a narrow bit of ribbon with a bow
and the sleeves arc finished with ribbon
bands and bows above the haring cuffs.
Designers have been forced TO realize
that women will not give up the sepa-
rate blouse. Simple frocks are very
charming; they have their place and
we all like them, but the blouse is a
satisfactory garment, il deserves a
permanent place and a permanent
place is demanded for it, From the
house Of Paquin are coming some pretty
ones made of a very pale colored
linen with groups of little tucks as
70 finish, and full plaitings of the ma
terial al the neck and wrists that are
held in place by bands of black velvet
ribbon. IA a matter Of course. the
ribbon is Of the soft pliable hsndker-
chief sort. White blouses Of tulle
and Of net and Of the two materials
combined are worn and are very
charming. A very pretty one com
bines the tulle with crepe and is
trimmed with white soutache. There
is a blouse for every occasion, for every
hour Of the day it would seem. and
embroidery appears upon almost every
one. AS has been stated in previous
letters, the shortage of trimming con-
tinues. All kinds OF needlework are
in vogue, and braid trimmings are
being extensively used and will be.
There is some embroidery finish to be
found upon the blouses of morning
wear as well as upon those Of afternoon
occasions A tennis blouse is. for
example. Of white pongee with a sailor
collar and cuffs embroidered with
tennis rackets in bright red. A very

ohiffonis finished with a scanty pepium
bound with silk. The taffeta blouse
referred to is embroidered with gold
and silver and the story Of embroidery
Of various sorts and of various uses
might be continued indefinitely
The various Oriental silks that are
variations Of pongee are much liked.
They are utilized both for morning
costumes and for the afternoon ones.
A smart gown is of the heavy tussah
silk in khaki color made with a cir
cular skirt that is gathered at the
back and is trimmed with row upon
row Of soutache braid with a row OF
big buttons covered with the material
above. There is a dainty blouse Of
white linen and fchu Of tussah with
long scarf ends that are richly em-
broidered with beads and finished with
long bead tassels. 1t seems impossible
TO escape from the. embroidery idea.
Whether il is carried out in coarse
wool, in heavy silk or in beads.
Among the latest accessories that are
reported from abroad are neck scarfs
of ribbon, the ends embroidered with
beads and finished with bead fringe.
Black taffeta ribbon is embroidered
with steel beads and with colored
beads and there are various ways in
which the idea is utilized. SO many
women like to make pretty tritiies OF the
sort during the summer to use as holt
day souvenirs, that the suggestion
NAV be worth considering at this time.
Little conventionalized flowers en-
broidered with beads that have been
referred to in previous letters can be
turned to excellent account in the
making Of these triffies and of various
other pretty little accessories. Ribbon
of any color that will serve as a back
ground with a single flower embroid-
cred on each end and with a fringe OF
the beads would make a most effective
tie A girdle of a little wider ribbon
TO match would make good effect and
narrow girdles are being so extensively
used that the idea is essentially a
practical one, and the work is very
simple. All sorts Of good transfer
patterns can be purchased and by
Transferring TO thin tissue in place Of
the material and working through the
tissue onto the ribbon, then tearing
the paper away, perfect effect can be
obtained. There are no transfer lines
on the material to be seen between the
beads and the work is quite as easy TO
do through the tissue as without it.
Not alone is embroidery and work Of
various sorts exceedingly fashionable.

TRULY this Is a phenomenal
summer. The fourth Of July
has come and gone and we have
known only a day or two OF real
summer heat. AS a result, many of
the fashions which in themselves are
more or less outre for summer, have
not seemed as grotesquely out Of place
as was feared. AS a matter Of course,
when fashionable women decided that
the fur scarfs were comfortable and
satisfactory ones to wear in the motor
or on the mountain tops or wherever
it was really cool. the foolish little stay
at-homes. who fancy they enter the
list of the fashionable set when they
wear garments of a similar sort no
matter how much out Of place or out
OF season, were sure 10 don them at
high noon to parade the avenue and
upon various similar unsuitable oc-
casions. We have seen many strange
sights in old Gotham and undoubtedly
we shall continue to sec them, but
happily VIC always can escape 20 the
nearby resorts and refresh ourselves
with the really well dressed. There
have been so many actually cool days
when the races we're in progress and
other important events being enjoyed,
that the fur scarfs and fur wraps have
been reported with truth, but it does
not hold that they ever can be or will
be satisfactory, rational or really
smart worn under the hot sun or in the
crowded city. After all Dame Fash
ion is not such an irrational being.
She establishes certain regulations and
she sets the example OF certain costumes
for certain occasions. Ii is not her
fault that they are copied for quite
different uses. II is never necessary
TO inform women Oh social place that
suitability is the true test OF smart
dressing. but one wishes sometimes
that the maxim might be printed as a
tract and circulated broadcast, so
many times is it overlooked and for
gotten.
The GOODNESS Of the summer has
perhaps intensified the love of sports
and to some extent. il may be re-
sponsible for the very great favor that
is shown the wool Jersey costumes for
they are worn by the best dressed
sports women and unquestionably they
have a far greater elegance and suit

comes the word that the material will
be used for costumes of general wear
throughout the Autumn. it takes such
beautiful folds, il is dyed 10 such lovely
colors and we well may hope to see the
report verified. We have worn serge
until we are a bit weary. however
beautiful it may be and the wool
Jersey will be a welcome novelty, and
il certainly can be made into most
attractive costumes.
With the coming Of the cooler
weather we shall see a great many
separate blouses that are finished over
the skirts A Partisan fancy is for
making them Of the plain colored silk
