English Print
By GERTRUDE BEREsFoRD.

English print is delightful cotton
fabric that resembles calico. 1t is
woven in the softest texture and
most exquisite colors. This morning
gown is developed from coral color
ed English print, sprigged with
white. A deep collar of organdie is
edged with tiny ruff1es set on with
entire deux. Similar ruffles form the
turned-back cuffs of organdie, which
look so cool on the three-quarter
sleeve. The front presents a novel
closing in the double-breasted sur
plus, which fastens with large white
pearl buttons. Five horizontal tucks
trim the plainly gathered skirt. The
picturesque hat worn with this
gown is made of matching English
front of the surplise blouse con-

The gluten tends to tougher the
