Modes of Hairdressing

The short cap sleeve. which is just
little puff, is used Ia summer dresses
OF the lighter materials, such as voIles
and crepes. 1t also makes an occa-
sional appearance In some OF the heav-
Ter fabrics. but, although the dress It.
self Is of heavier cotton, the 1880
sleeve is Of thinner material. For
instance. quaint looking dress Of
lowered chintz, made with straight
bodice and full-gathered skirt, has pun
sleeves Of white organdie, the cuffs
OF which are stitched with red worsted.
Further touches OF the organdle APP

indicate vogue for smooth and un-

opposition to the much.waved and
puffed coiffure which has been worn
for several years The exaggerated
