and stand, we would probably ask her
to turn slowly around, and let us sum
up the details of her perfect costume.
1t Is an example of the new order Of
things in outdoor summer dress-ele-
CANT and informal-an evolution that
retains only flavor OF sport styles in
street dress. 1t is spirited but quiet,
and possesses both vivacity and dig

The suit, consisting Of skirt and
smock, may be imagined in linen, or in
suitable silk weaves or in certain cot
tons, linen having the preference. It's
long smock is set off by groups of
tucks with an embroidered band be-

Linen Bedspreads.

Hand embroidered linen bedspreads
ample enough to cover the bed, pillows
and dresser scarfs to match, are ex-
quisitely dainty for the boudoir. Some
of them are made of dimity and wolfe,
but the majority are of a fine, firm
quality of linen unexcelled for Its
laundering qualities. A voluminous
spread may be made from five and
three-quarters yards Of linen divided
Into three lengths. An additional yard
and a half will make two dresser
scarfs. This material allows for wide
hens, which should be double hem
stitched, with the initial embroidered
in the center, plain or in an artistic
scroll.
