FROCk AND FABRIC
Simple Garments Regarded Best
for Present Wear.
Charm Of Summer Clothes Has Worn
on and Fail and Winter Plans
Receive Attention.

Just now II the betwixt and between
season. The newness OF summer fash
ions has worn on. and plans are being
carried out for fall and winter clothes.
One lives In the present these days, In
fashions as well as everything else,
and with the simple timely frocks,
whose lovely fresh colorings and sheer
textures are valuable aids In present
Ing to the world that "bien soiguee"
appearance that Is the secret Of true
chic.
There Is apparently no limit to the
variety Of materials. All the old ia
vorites and many new ones have made
their appearance. Soft pastel shades
and neutral tones with here and there
q bright tint for emphasis, reveal
sense Of fitness which with women Is
almost an instinct. Dotted muslin.

tiny hairllne stripes or checks, en-
broldered batistes and voiles, as well
as null which Is found In such wide
range Of beautiful shades are featured
In any number Of delightful little
frocks whose chic simplicity is &C
centuated by their lack Of trimming.
One type Of gown Is made Of pale corn
color null with chemisette, cuffs and
sash Of crisp white orgsndie. 1t would
be quite as attractive II developed In
fine French wolfe or dImity.
Every woman to her taste this year,
especially in the choice Of materials,
for happily the set rules Of other days
have gone by the board. 1t isn't 80
long ago that a silk gown was q cos
tune reserved for occasions more or
less ceremonlous. There Is scarcely
any time during the day or night when
silken garments cannot be worn with
the utmost propriety. This summer is
decidedly a silk summer, and nothing
could be more attractive than the
clothes designed for country wear. One
dares not think what would happen to
some Of the startling costumes II they
were subjected to only few. for most
Of the silk fabrics are made to with
stand the effects Of rough wear.
The next two months are particular
ly trying. One does not feel like in
dulging In more summer clothes, and
with the exception OF hats, autumn
modes are still in the distance. There
are some wonderfully alluring wells
whose interesting and novel patterns
help to create that little air Of elusive
ness Characteristic Of chic Parisienne.
Very pretty Is a veil that has large
mesh and q delicate tracery undoubt-
edly inspired by the crackle. work Of
batik prints. The border Is more def
mite, and while the ven may be worn
entirely over the face, Q far more
piquant effect Is given II It Is arranged
30 that the border comes just to the
top Of the nose. Another veil as chic
and most becoming has spiral designs
made Of graduated chenille dots. A
wide border formed Of inch-wide
squares outlined In chenille, appears
on q veil as smart as It Is new.

About h.u.wInt.r uran.

Always the evening coats for q
winter season are about the most raw
ishing part Of lavish wardrobe. And
this season Is no exception. Here there
seems to be no attempt made at con-
servation, for both the capes and
wraps are as ample as the law allows.
Capes are made usually Of velvet, with
trimmings Of gold gaIloon and lavish
bands OF fur. There are some soft
satin capes with interiinings Of wool,
and these, in order to make them have
the least semblance Of warmth and
winter. must be trimmed with fur In
big and EMBEDDING patches. The col
lars obliterate ones features altogeth-
er when wrapped about the throat to
their full capacity.

thority: All skirts win be heightened
as the season advances under the in
fiuence Of this new skirt. Women are
already ripping out hens or adding
new hens OF other material to skirts
they are renovating.
This Is wise thing for a woman to
remember II she is In the throes Of
altering frocks that will maintain her
wardrobe IN good style until the actu-
al cold weather demands warmer ma
terials. Don't let her be misled by the
fact that the majority Of women's
clothes worn and sold today have
short skirts. All the betting ON the
racetrack Of fashion Is against their
winning. II Is far wiser to renovate
q skirt for the future than for the
present, II one considers the gown
worth the price of money and vitality
that clever renovation requires.
Speaking Of skirts, What About Hstsf
The first question that a woman
asks when she 10 told that the long,
pull-back skirt and the tight basque
are arriving, concerns the best hat
that win 60 with such q silhouette.
The answer to her question depends
on the nature Of the place where she
shops. 1t Is probable that the infor-
nation WIN be given her that the mill
liners have amassed a vast variety Of
head coverings. and that she can take
her choice; but II she definitely insists
upon what Is new, she WIN be told by
those who know that the striking
novelty IL the revival Of a mans hat
that has won q picturesque place for
itself through several centuries Of
usage.
Once II was called the Musketeer,
because Of its upturned brim and its
long feather; today II Is called the
Anzae. Between the two classes Of
fighters there a no difference, except
the progress Of time. They fight with
much the same. principle to guide
them, and both fight for the honor and
safety Of France.
Today the Amaze hat comes into high
fashion. and at the hour Of the Aus
tralIan fighters distinction
1t Is made Of white. gray, black and
mauve felt. Sometimes IL has an I'm
sIgnia Of no Importance as a method
Of fastening up the brim to the crown,
and again II has a thick, curling os-
trich feather. It Is the latter trim
ming that Il added TO the felt hat
