SASH THE GROWING GLORY
10 Pleasing, Appropriate and
Decorative.

The frock itself was very pretty,
just the thing for a little girl to wear
to u party. 1t was made OF Il soft vel
low silk or %georgette crepe, q straight,
full, high-waisted little gown, with
short, full sleeves. The round neck
and the sleeves were finished off with
q soft frill about two inches wide, of
delicate, tllmy lace. But it was the
sash that gave the browning glory to
the dress. 1t reminded one Of Il rain
bow, even though /: did not show all
the rainbow colors. Soft satin ribbon
was the material, put together in folds,
measuring one-half, or, perhaps, three
quarters Of an inch in width. The
upper was q dainty pink, next came an
oid rose, after that light blue. canary
yellow and, lastly, a lovely shade OF
lavender. Altogether these five deli
cate colors in the soft, satin ribbons
made just the right sort of Il sash to
set off such a simple, dainty little
gown and the ends Of the vari-colored
ribbons, flying loose, reminded one of
the quaint old May day festivities Of

Ore reason that some women do not
like to sew is because they are con-
tinually pricking the first finger Of the
left hand. A way to avoid this Is to
place q thimble on that finger. An
other is wtrI. Of course, on the usual

over the points and prevent their pune
turing either ones anatomy or sweater
bag.
All stockings, irrespective of ma
terial, should be darned with darning
silk. Not only does it make n heater
darn, but it wears better and does not
hurt the foot.
To mend a glove that is split at the
thumb or near a seam, buttonhole the
kid either side of the split and then
sew the button-holed edges together.
The result will be a new firm seam
that will never tear again. When but
tonholing take a good hold, otherwise
the stitches will pull out from the kid.

LONG SPRING COAT
Silk and Wool Fabrics Are Often
Used in Combination.
Fuii.Lenpth Garment viii Vie With
Short Sports Of "chappie," oopu-
lar With Young Women.


The accepted rule for the long spring
coat is As to 4S inches. This 3-inch
leeway is due to the fact that fashion
has decreed that ut least 3 inches OF
the underneath garment, whether 1t be
frock or separate skirt, shall be visible.
There IS a very determined leaning,
when wool Is used, to straight, scant
lines. but where silks are employed
more, generous use of material is per-
MISSILE, and the silk coats are gener-
ally rather full.
Two-fabric combinations are noted
In some Of the coats, and, Of course,
silk and wool fabrics are often com-
bined.
The coat shown in the sketch Is q
good example of the two-fabric long
coat developed for spring. AS design
ed here, the coat proper is made OF
navy satin, with waist and sleeves of
plaid serge or other wool fabric. The
back of the garment is cut on the same
general lines us the front, and the
deep shawl or cape collar Is so mr.
ranged that 1t may be drawn high
about the throat Ii desired.

"Chappie" coat, will undoubtedly be
