FABRIC FOR SUMMER FR0cKs
Printed Georgettes and Silk VoiIes Are
Popular; No Trimming Is
Required.

Printed georgettes and silk voiles are
being extensively used this summer,
and as frocks made of these materials
require no trimming they are boon
to the home dressmaker.
Sometimes the frockS have founda.
tons of crepe meteor or lightweight
satin or taffeta, but perhaps the most
popular arrangement is to use the same
material in plain color as the founda-
ton, skillfully draping the printed fab
ric over it. This makes a very light
weight frock that is charming for
dressy wear for summer. Loosely tied
sashes of self material or of satin are
frequently used. These are tied either
at the back or side. Wide, flowing
sleeves, elbow or three-quarter length,
are the favorite ones.
Organdie dresses are also great ia
yorites this summer, the most popular
style showing q plain skirt and bodice
finished with a wide surplice bertha
edged with tiny frills. The bertha or
surpiice is drawn around the figure
and tied in smart bow at the back.
A dress of this type is, of course, not
for the stout figure.

KEYNOTE OF DRESS

Some of the new mushroom hats
have bandeaux inside.
Little belts of bright-colored ribbon
are popular for the white costume.
Black satin ribbon is arranged in
spiral fashion on a black satin gown.
Individuality is unQuestionably the
keynote of present season dressing.
Hatpins with flower heads of bril-
liantly vanished kid are a Paris nov
city.
Few Of them are now permitting
themselves to be bound by ironical
style rulings. either as to color or fab
ric, skirt length or width.
Crepe de chine has had so many
songs sung in its favor that little needs
to be said. 1t is the fabric that for
centuries has been found by the Chi
neSe to serve mankind well.

RoMPERs FOR THE KIDDIES
Suggestions of Suitable Materials and
Decorations for PIaytime and
Dress Occasions.

The baby who is brought up without
an intimate acquaintance with romp-
ers is to be sympathized with. Never
was there so comfortable a style, and
now that decorative handwork has
taken these wee garments under its
wing, never has there been more at
tractive style for the playtime of the
littlest member of the family.
Materials for the rompers vary from
dimity to wash silk and include seer
sucker, chambray, cotton crepe, linen
and unbleached muslin. All admit the
decorative touch. 1t may be shocking,
which in the case of soft materials, is
always lovely. The shocking can be
used to excellent advantage on the
wash silks built on the regulation
romper pattern. 1t gathers in the full
ness at the front of the neck and at
the bottom of the sleeves and is done,
of course, in contrasting color. Flesh
color shocked in light blue is fetch
ing color scheme.
One model that is differently attrac-
tive has kimono sleeve instead of the
set-in variety. Another has bloomer
legs instead of the opening right
across the bottom, which, by the way,
is better for very young children. The
former kimono top uses, besides the
blue daisies and outlined bluebird in
the front, rows of Misunderstanding to
hold the fullness in the proper places
and thus give the kimono cut a SEM
blance of shape.
A contrasting belt of white with
bunny and outlining in yellow gives
the appearance Of separate trousers to
bloomered model in tan chambray
Just contrasting frills of white and
pearl buttons make another chambray
model as dainty little garment as one
could wish. But the prize really must
go to little dimity affair in white silk
with real Irish lace picot edging
around the collar and sleeve, then blue
French knots to match the blue cross
stitched geese on its belt.

FAIRY TALE II
THE FIELDS.
6y hary Graham bonner me.

IL was In the summer time that the
fields were waving and chatting and
saying these things to each other. OF
course they were at their best and the
season had been just right for them.
There had been enough rain BIZ:
not too much. enough sunshine but
not too much. In fact, it had been
quite perfect season so far.
.The fields always spoke of things
having been nice so far for they never
knew what the weather was going to
be any more than the farmers did, and
they heard the farmers talking in that
way to each other.
80 the fields used to wonder if it
would be dry and without even any
showers for the rest of the season, or
whether it would rain every day and
hurt them
But this special day they were feel
ing very well and very happy.
Tn so good for food said the
barley field. am pretty and feathery,
too.
I'm such lovely pale green color

"'And am good and substantial
looking said the winter wheat.

Pongee, Tussah and Similar Materials

Careful Dressers.

Pongee. tussah and similar fabrics
are having great vogue this season.

WOMEN SHOULD STUDY TYPE

Easily Attained.

Gratefulness characteriZes the

for woman not to look picturesque,
because the pliancy of the exquisite
fabrics on the market drape them
selves into lines which even the

Quaint and interesting are worn-out
adjectives, but individuality in appear

FUR MEANS STYLE.
Velvet Hats Also d Feature of the
Paris Fashions.
French Women Are Not Setting Pace
For Milady of America by Wear
ING Warm Clothes.

From velvet Paris next turns her at
tention to furs, and it is said that
anything with fur on it is considered
up to the minute. Furs and even vel
vet hats in plenty have been seen on
the torrid streets of American cities in
summers past. so it is best not to feel
too self-righteous or to make too much
comment when Paris chooses to suffer
in the cause of fashion.
The scarcer the fur the more in
vogue it is bound to be, but one does
not have to depend on the quantity of
fur that is available, for the main point
is that ones clothes be shaggy and
The means that are employed are far
less important. Earlier in the season
fringe of any and all sorts was the
concern, but besides the monkey fur
and the dripping effects obtained by
the use of feathers the novelties in
wool materials are much in demand.
There is an inexhaustible variety of
knitted novelties in Angora and 9TH
er materials, anything that can be
made to hang and dangle in the man.
ner of a long-haired fur Many of
these are shown in bands, particularly
when the texture is suitable for use as
a trimming Wool is often combined
with silk and metal and interviewer
in stripes. Following closely the ideas
of the designers, plaids, checks and
stripes are plentiful and colors are
shade or two more vivid than the ma
terials of late. Stripes are produced
by open mesh material alternating with
bands of the wool, the mesh being of
metal thread loosely woven.
Any of these knitted novelties pro-
vides the way for trimming either
frock or coat without the aid of fur
at somewhat less expense. For sports
clothes this form of trimming is ideal,
for the shades afford a dash of color
usually associated with such clothes.
Among other colors are dahlia, cit
ron, jade, kings blue and rust brown,
which are used separately or in combi-
nations.

TIMELY FASHION TOPICS

The tendency is decidedly toward
full fiaring overskirts with right under
skirts.
Charming face wells with chenille
dotted motifs matching the hat trim
ming in color were recently noted at a
smart hotel at the tea hour.
Lingerie blouses OF net and of net
and lace are a feature of midsummer
fashions. Both white and ecru net
are seen and valenciennes and flet
lace are employed.
Midsummer hats of particularly
pleasing character are the large
shaped models of leghorn In dyed and
natural colors combined with satin
and with taffeta.
Negligees of black are quite the
vogue with women that follow every
within of fashion. These are of georg-
cite. of satin and OF lace and frequent
ly are developed by a combination OF
two of these materials and sometimes
by combination of all three.

Avoid Staining Fingers.

An excellent way TO avoid staining
the fingers when pairing vegetables
and fruit. particularly apples, is to
wind the thumb and first finger Of the
right hand with strips of clean white
cloth. They can be pulled of easily
when pairing is completed and the
stains viii be on the cloth instead of
the fingers. which invariably become
deeply stained from fruit and knife
