been cast into the discard, is one that
women should not wear bifuricated
skirt. Those who have tried them
and know the freedom thereof, have
been loath to giving them up,
although willing to restrict their
use.
There is certainly nothing about
such pajamas as these dainty ones
shown.\ Hardly a more convincing
argument could be found against the
theory that when<a woman dons
trousers she discards all feminine
charm. Such garments as these are
doubtless too dstractinglY pretty
and feminine. But that's no afgu-
nent for renouncing fashion. /,
Pajamas are sensible. sometimes.
\ They are warmer for winter than
robes, and infinitely better for trav-
cling. Delightfully."- festive pajamas
like these may be used for idling in
ones boudoir and are quite proper
ly classed as negligees.
One would never make any such
charge as sensible" against these,

1t is untold relief to ones pent
up feelings to discard the drab, color
less garb of the workaday world and
burst forth into color. II unfortu-
nately is NOT always possible to. be
as colorful and comfortable as one
might desire in outer apparel, but
the fascinating world of under
things gives a woman a chance to
prove at least to herself how pretty
role to dress is the boudoirself.
There are many quietly dressed
women who revel in dainty lin
gerie and spend most of their
clothes allowance on things that are
no seen than for the prosaic gar
ments Of visible wardrobe.
If you are mother, preparing
your daughter for her first year at
school, do not insist up her lin
gerie being of the durable type
alone. Do not frown upon her sug-
gestion of silk for after all it is not
an extravaganza. Cultivate a pride
lin her personal belongins by letting
7 her have some pleasure and voice in
the selection of her things and give
her just little rein in the choice off
the garments she will wear in her
own room. Pajamas are not
frowned upon in boarding school.
but rather encouraged, although
they should be made on simpler
lines.
Negligees that are fashioned on
harerh lines and have full Turkish
trousers are very comfortable. Since
| the over blouse may be any length
one fancies there should be no feel
ing of unconventional attire. De-
sighefs evidently find richer sug-
gestions in the Orient than in
other parts of the globe for negli-
gees. The inspiration is clearly
SEEN Chinese coats and trousers
are not only artistic to degree
but exceedingly convenient They
are the artistic choice for the
slim young creature who hobs her
hair and only succeeds in making
herself the more alluringly feminine
in spite of the boyish cut.
But the dipped" garment is not to
be kept in privacy of ones room.
For some time it has been replace
ling the petticoat and nobody is a bit
the wiser as far as appearances are
concerned There are all sorts of
interesting bloomers of various
lengths in the shops, some of glove
silk that do not >add anything to
ones girth and are. also desirable in
other ways. These solve the prob
lem of windy weather and keep one
decently clad in gale. And be-.
sides they are not unsightly; they
are distinctly attractive.
The more intimate garments mod
eled after those widely advertised
and worn by men during hot
whether are the severely tailored
one-piece union suits that end
above the knee and have elastic at
the back of the waist to allow free
dom of motion. The athletic girl has
long looked with envy at her broth
ers simplifed under-clothing and
wondered why it would not Be feas-
IDLE TO her as we'll. The urgent
need Of thousands of girls for the
same thing was an incentive and
soon such garments were ready,
made of dainty flesh color, and also
white materials, edged with narrow
lace as concession to feminine
notion of such personal things.
These models are a substitute for
the envelope chemise or whatever
form of combination or separate
garments one may wear instead.
It is, perhaps, the simple, comfort
able example of the modern
woman's new designs in under
things, that has taught her how
dainty an outfit may be-, though
! quite unidentified and unbedecked?
The never and more active occu-
patton for women and girls have
made ingenuity work overtime.
The need to avoid bulkiness, all
extra care, and Punishable seiec-
ton of materials may have sharp
ened the wits and the taste to 4
wonderful efficiency--but none-the-
less, within survives contentedly--
the same Eve; dainty and ever
feminine.
