known of the beauty Of Philippine en-
broidery for years. But the Philippine
women have been embroidering gar
ments that could not possibly be trans
formed to suit American demands.
There is some tale that the Filipino
women, when they were taught to wear
our clothes, asked for American pat
terms. That happened to be In the day
when the never to be forgotten but
never lamented Mother Hubbard was
in the height Of its power. Hence the
Filipinos were given, 1t is said, a
Mother Hubbard pattern. And that
has remained the foundation pattern Of
their shapeless costume ever since.
In the same way, when the Filipino
women first began to do embroidery
for the Americans must have been
some time shortly after the close OF
the Spanish war-just when American
women were wearing their first Gin
gerie waists" They were white
blouses In their least attractive form
with high, tight collars, and they fas-
tened down the back. And so the Fill
Pine women have since then been CIV
ing us waist patterns" nicely en-
broidered, to be sure, but one and all
cut on those old fashioned lines-lines
that could not be reconciled with the
present mode.
Recently somebody with clothes
sense must have gone down to the
Philippine Islands and told somebody
there that American women changed
their mode of dress with the passing
years. For recently there have been
wholly wearable garments, hand EN-.
broidered by the Philippine women,
cut on fashionable lines.
There is really very attractive under
wear embroidered In the Philippines.
1t is cheaper than the French work,
and it is equally attractive, although 1t
is different. Let us all be grateful to
the enterprising soul who changed the
current of Filipino industry from
those endless and useless blouses that
came in just after American acQuisi-
ton Of the islands.
