adopted in a foulard voi1e in charm ing tones of dark blue and bisque. There is a straight overdress with four rows of velvet ribbon at the low CT edge and immense pockets at eith- CT side which are stitched on to hang in draped effect. The underdress is of blue taffeta and there is a string belt of velvet ribbon to hold in the fitness at the waist. The sleeves are in kimo- no effect and reach barely to the el- bows. There is absolutely no unani- mity regarding length of the sleeve. As a rule it accompanies the frock, in general types. For street wear the long sleeve is well fitted 70 the arm; for af- ternoon we have the elbow or three quarter flare sleeve, while for evening there is even greater variation. Some are full length and snapped close to the wrist; other are wide, farfng and
 finished with long sequin drops; third type reaches probably to the el-
 bow, but is slashed to expose the up- per part of the arm, falling apart at about three inches from the shoulder. One really can run the limit of origi- nality in designing sleeves this season.
 Some remarkably smart dresses are offered in challiS and tub satin, de- veloped upon the straightest of lines. Nothing more delightful has been seen this season than a white model with V-shaped neck trimmed with a collar of self-satin. The line of the shoulder droops well onto the arm where an
 elbow-1ength flare sleeve is set in. About the sleeve and on the shoulder
 is a narrow band of silk embroidery in bright green and black worked about tiny squares of brilliant red silk.

 Equally attractive is a cobalt blue

 more in the tunics than in the bodice l backs, although the latter idea Is | shown with Acceptable frequency.
 One of the prettiest p1aids of the year is an organdy with white back ground cross-hnrred with pale yellow and wisteria lines. The waist fastens at one side and on the pointed tunic there is a rising band of wisteria or gandy. The tunic is longer at the back than at either front or sides and tiny | buttons of wistaria colored satin en- nance the beauty of the trimming.

new cottonS are particularly fascinat- ing. A peach voile combined with mod ish draping and sash effect of brown batiste, is delightful, while a lavender linen made with box-coat trimmed with darning stitch embroidery and a vest of cretonne offers a particularly smart note.
 It is nothing unusual to see collars that reach almost to the waistline as the sole trimming of simple blouses. It is one of the sinartest notes of pr es- ent-day fashions-this deep, square collar of lace, embroidery or sheer ma terial and it's vogue affords the one great opportunity of using up bits of fine handwork that one may have been saving for years on the principle that ''if you keep thing seven years, there surely will come use for it."
 Velvet hats are appearing earlier than ever this year. The prettiest models thus far exploited have vel vet crowns and brims' of malines or some transparent lace-braid. Nets with both crown and brim of velvet, with brim faced with leghorn or milan are also among the novelties of late sum- mer. They are usually large in size and tr immed with exceeding sinplic- ity. Still another velvet novelty is the hat with brim turned up at the front and sides and finished with a frill of fine lace braid. There prom ises to be a great vogue for millinery trimmings that droop or hang over the brims of hats, especially when they are quite wide. Malines is going to be used in greater quantities than ever. It Is now possible to get the material from France in larger quantities than at any time since the war began and as it is both pretty and serviceable, the reason for its popularity is at once evident.

el that is especially interesting be- cause of it's shape is the pillow shown here. The embroidery designs also may be used for cushion cover. It is developed entirely in running stitch and works up so quickly that an entire cover may be embroidered in a single afternoon. Gilt threads are used for the work, and if desired to vary the scheme, black silk may be added. For the sake of contrast. however, it is best to couch the black silk with gilt. Cobalt or Delft blue and gold is ano- ther delightful combination for a black pillow. The fashionable demand is for the touch of gold somewhere, if only in tasseIs which may te added
