For Evening Wear.

The simplest dance or evening dress
may be made a lovely affair by the use
of girdle or sash of ribbon. Narrow
ribbon is useful for finishing the edges
of tunic and sleeves. of net or lace
frocks. A silver lace dress recently
seen was trimmed only with belt tied
with bow and long ends made of blue
and silver ribbon, and black velvet
dinner gown was relieved of somber-
ness by being held In at the waist by q
wide sash of gold tinsel ribbon, which
was tied with long ends that fell be-
