Very simple frocks Of fine cotton
goods in gay colors or Of handkerchief
linen, and all made by hand. are pro-
vided for little girls to wear when
they are all dressed up. Cotton crepe,
batiste, lawn and organdie usually fur
nish the material, and embroidered
batiste or val lace or fancy needle
work the trimming for these fine at
fairs, and hand work puts the hall
mark Of elegance on them. And when
the little boy Of three or more must
be dressed up to match the splendor
Of his sister he is likely to appear IN
knlckers of pongee or other strong
silk, with batiste blouse to match II
in color. But Of course his life is
spent in much more sturdy clothes
made of strong cottons, like cotton
poplin and pique, while these and
ginghams or chambrays serve for the
daily wear of little girls.
Between the two extremes OF very
dainty and sheer things, for special oc-
casions, and heavy cottons, come the
durable printed voiles. They make
very practical frocks that are more
dressy than ginghams. A good many
of these initiate ginghams in plaids
and cross-bars that are very pretty IN
this sheer material, and greater num-
her have small flower designs scat
tered thickly over their surface; 9TH
ers are striped, so that there Is all
unending variety to choose from, ana
all these cotton goods are well rep
resented In stores all over the country.

Grease Spot on a Parasoi.
Both Suits and Dresses.

Owing to the proportions of the
present demand for women's wear
the coming fall season promises TO
see suits and dresses bought in equal
amounts. Only short time ago IN
the history of the dress trade 1t was
always a question Of choice between
the two STYLES Of garments, with rare
" a time when both were equally
good. Manufacturers OF dresses nold
the present demand for quality re-
sponsible in a measure for the heid
that exists for both suits and dresses,
and as long as both maintain high
standards they stand the same chance
of acceptance. This stabilizing OF
conditions has been a decidedly well
come development to the dressmak'
ers.

To Freshen Silks.

japanese, China, India and pOngee
silks are freshened by washing in
warm soapsuds, rinsing quickly and
drying In the shade; roll in sheet
when not perfectly dry and then iron
on the wrong side.
Colored silk fades and white silk
yellows after washing, but this may
be avoided by using medium warm
soap and water and rinsing well ;
wrap in q large cloth Gan old sheet Is
fine) for half n hour, and then iron
on the wrong side with moderate
iron, using bit Of thin lawn between
the iron and silk. Do not let the light
and air get to it while wet, as this
yellows and fades the fabric.
When black silk or satin begins to
shine, sponge on the right side with q
mixture Of two parts of gin and one of
water, and iron while damp on the
wrong side.
To Remove GreAtse Stains From Silk
When any greasy substance has
been dropped upon silk 1t can be alb,
stracted by mixing French chalk with
methylated spirits to the consistency
Of cream, laying 1t upon the stain
then covering with brown paper and
pressing with a warm iron.
French chalk removes grease and
does not injure colored silks. Scrape
little on the spot, rub 1t in, let II
stand "a hours, then brush off and re
peat the process if necessary, fol
grease is often hard to remove.

The little girl out in Arizona has the
same chance as the little girl in New
York to wear ffocks that are up to
date.
The dress shown in the picture is of
printed wolfe, machine made, with or
candle collar and cuffs and facing on
the pocket. The sash Is also Of or
candle and there is a little spray OF
embroidery on all these organdie &C
cessories. Narrow organdie frills Dor
dering neck and sleeves and sashes
prove as pretty a trimming feature as
the season has to offer. On summer
dresses sleeves are short, either ell
bow or three-quarter length, and skirts
usually about knee length.
Designers of children's clothes have
not ignored georgette crepe and crepe
de chine for the most pretentious OF
dainty frocks. The georgette is often
figured and has the appearance of very
fine lawn. Gay ribbons and scalloped
edges on sleeves and skirt bound with
the ribbon or silk to match 1t, finish up
these airy creations. Many frocks are
made with coatee and jacket effects

them off, These and tiny crochet or
