MAKE CAMISOLE OF HANDKlES
Garment Easy to Construct by Using Soft kerchiefs With Embroidered
 or ScaIIoped Edges.

Take three soft handkerchiefs of fine material and with embroidered or scalloped edges. Fold each hand kerchief diagonally through the mid dle and press the creases well with a moderately hot iron. With sharp scis- sors cut along the lines thus made i; you will now have six triangular pieces of equal size. Cut the inser- tion to whatever lengths are required, which can be ascertained by measur- ing. There should be two long rows, with plenty of length allowed for full ness, for the top of the garment; two center strips to meet in points at the front and at the back, each crossing the shoulder without a seam; two short strips for use at the joining of the front and the back, and two short rows for each armhole.
 The easiest way to put the sections together is to pin them in the proper position on large sheet of paper and then tack the strips of insertion into place and remove the paper In put ting the front of the camiSOle together leave the left edge of the center sec tion free for an opening Sew small pearl buttons on the under edge and small loops on the insertion.
 After you have joined all the sec tiohs, fit the garment on the wearer, if possible; it will probably be neces- sary to draw in both back and front at the top with small gathers. Add the yoke, made of double strips of insertion, and the armhole rows and finish them with lace edge to match. Through the Openwork of the lace run a narrow ribbon for gathering: in- stead of ribbon a crocheted lingerie cord may be used that is made with simple chain stitch of white thread of weight suited to the texture of the lace. Finish the bottom with a narrow tape.

ADD BIT OF COLOR
BriIIiance Plays Important Part
 in Small Accessories.
Wardrobe Should Include Articles That Can Be Changed at Compara-
 lively Little Expense.

A great many tragedies are sure to follow in a season where color in dress is as riOtOuS as it is this year, asserts fashion writer in the Philadelphia Record. Temptations to buy the henna Velours with the silver gray trimming. instead of the more sensible navy trico- tine will lead many women to rue an impulsive choice. One is going to get very tired of the paprika -cOlored top coat and the jade evening gown, ex- cept where the wardrobe is so eXten- sive that one has plenty of changes. But aren't the cOlOrs beautiful?
 And you can give way to these color longings, too, if you are wise and do it in the small accessories of the ward robe, where they can be easily changed at comparatively little expense. navy tricOtine chemise dress, just for in- stance can be made to do duty for two entirely different dresses if a change of girdles and vests is provided. Girdles were never more colOrful or unique. They can be the striking note of plain frOck. Let's suppose you have chosen a very plain navy dress on the simplest kind of lines. You can choose to wear with it one of the Wampum girdles of leather patches strung to- gether with beads, and showing bead and straw embroidery. These are very mOdish and can be bought or copied at home. There are some other new leather girdles of bright red, blue or purple, slashed and threaded with fri descent beads, and having long bead fringes. These, combined with veStee to match, can make the navy frock al- most loud" at least they will brighten it up to better advantage than lot of tinsel or bead embroidery that could not be changed.
 There are jade galaIith girdles, suede belts, stitched in brilliant colors; bright striped cotton braids, trimmed with painted wooden ornaments; bril- liant red and orange buckles, and all sorts of metal belts to liven up dull frOckS. And then, as dreSSier touch there are the ribbon girdles, wide sashes of moire tying on the side or in the middle of the front or back. Gray seems to be a favOrite color, and then, of course all the tanS and hennaS. Plain navy and black satin frocks are livened up with soft saShes of coIOred chiffon, tying with long ends at the sides. Evening gowns, too, use these soft sashes, and vary them with punches of tulle in one, two or three shades, at the hip and trailing on the floor.

FASHIONS IN BRIEF

Elaborate tuckingS adOrn the long spring gloves.
 There is a vogue for high colors In draped veils.
 The upturned brim of black vel vet hat is of black lace, banded with jade green ribbon.
 It is a compromise between a com fOrtable low neck and modish high one, for short collar across the back is wired to stand up.
 Some green is worn-the mysterious olive tones which are so delightful, or a rather bright, yellowish green trimmed with gray squirrel, chinchilla or gaZelle.
 From Paris comes the ruche of vel vet or moire ribbon arranged in loops. A long end hangs down at one side and at the other is placed large mil linery rose in natural color.
 A rival of the wool sweater for sport wear is the wool jersey over blouse, cut to fit the figure very snugly and trimmed usually with bands of an gOra in contrasting cOlOrs and possibly a touch of wool or chenille en- broidery.

BLOUSE IS USEFUL
Costume Garment Most WoefuI!y
 Abused, Writer Declares.
Worn ProperIy-So That 1t Looks Entirely Right

One of the most useful garments under the sun is the costume blouse, and one of the most WOefully abused, says a fashion correspondent. DO you often see it worn properly? Few are the times when it looks entirely right of the same family as the rest Of the costume of which it has become a part.
 It will be a dreadful blow to some women to be told that the costume blouse is not really smart when it is worn with a suit skirt. It is all right when the coat is buttoned in place, but when that outer covering is re- moved. how different! This costume blouse has its place, to be sure, but it Is not with the tailored or even the semi-tailored suit. There only the tailored blouse or the soft, handmade French blouse has a rightful place and a sufficient reason to call itself a part of the whole.
 There is the blouse made of an all over brocade or of an all-over piece of embroidery. It is one of the hand somest that has been produced in this most prolific season, and it is apt to be made over quite plain and simple lines, with no added trimmings It comes in the most beautiful and rich colors, and 1t should most properly be worn with a skirt that is low in tone, soft in texture and full enough in width to make 1t a graceful founda- tion for the brilliance of the waist.
 There is nc, question that the blouse type of frock is one of the most eco- nomical of the varieties of cOstuming

EASY TO REMODEL OLD BROCK
Vogue for Combination of Materials Enables Women to Conveniently
 Change Style of Garments.

It is particularly easy this season to remodel passe frOcks because cOmbina- tions of different fabrics are so much in vogue.
 If you are fortunate enough to have a velvet gown which is still in good condition, but which needs a few fresh ening touches, it may with little work be transformed into smart up-to-date frock. If the skirt is gored with wide front and back panel with perhaps two gores on the sides, they may be used as panels and set over a contrasting shade of accordion plaited georgette, the velvet panels being looped up or caught together beneath the hem so that they do not fly out when the wear CT walks.
 The waist may receive a veStee of the georgette, while if the sleeves are worn thin below the elbow they may be cut off and finished with gathered puffS of the crepe. If the panels are wide enough, and if the wearer be tall and slender, they may be allowed to hang loose.
 Tunics are still in vogue and if you have an evening frOck of embroidered net or lace that cannot again be worn without receiving attention, the lace may be used as an Overtunic. the nar- rOWer sheath skirt being of metallic cloth or satin. These little tunics are often graduated or draped. In fact, there are no end of ways whereby the clever woman can refurbish her winter wardrobe.

CHATEAU FOR THE DEBUTANTE
Girls Supposed to Wear Hats Express sing Youth; Avoid Type Worn
 by Older Women

There Is none so powerful in the mastery of fashion who can lay down the law about hats for a class. The young girl is supposed to wear the kind which expresses youth and avoid the type worn by the older women. This tradition is gone by the board It keeps company with Davy Jones' locker and a million traditions in the depths.
 The debutante of this gay and pros porous season wears on her head that rule is an excellent one to follow through life It aids the old and the young, the pretty and the plain.
 The stiff sailor shape. GibSOnian in its severity, is about the only kind that is not popular. All the hats that have cluttered fashion since the idea began of wearing formal coverings on the head have reappeared this season. They present a bewildering array it is true, but not an unpleasing one. It is distinctly comfortable to find wide limit to ones choice.
 The tam is the most girlish shape, and it persists in fashion. It has ceased to hang over the back of the collar in the Latin quarter way. It has plenty of fullness, which is dis posed to give breadth across the head. For ornament there is brOad-spread Egyptian design in some composition in an Egyptian blue. This blue is ad mirable for debutantes.

VELVET FOR MUDDY BLOUsES
Fabric Among Other Favorites for Construction of the Popular and
 Seasonabie Garment.

In the lineup of separate middy gar ments a great many fabrics are ap- proved. Serge and flannel, of course, are staple and always good style, and this season wool jersey cloth and vel veteen middieS to be worn with either plain or plaid wool separate skirts are in high favor. Crepe de chine is also frequently used.
 One very smart little black velve- teen smOck recently featured with plaid wool skirt was drawn in a trifie at the waistline on either side and caught with a silk cord and tassel.
 Touches of wool embroidery in con- trasting color trim the wood jersey blOuses, or else they are finished all about the edges with bands of heavy wool crochet, the same material ire ouently being used to form a belt.

Electricity for AUed Hands

The aged hand has been a source of much modification and anxiety to the woman who has left her '3Os and her '4Os behind her. Yet electricity, that prime aid in the rejuvenatiOn of beau ty, has come to her assistance, and now the woman who has a good many years to her credit, but who does not care to admit that balance, goes to the beauty parlOrs, settles back com fortably in reclining chair and re- news the youth of her hands byeelec- trical treatment.

To Protect Sleeves,

A very nice little thing to protect your long sleeves can be made from a large size and fancy bOrdered hand kerchef This is the way it is done: Cut diagOnally across from corner to corner. Make a narrow band along the edge just large enough to slip the hand through. Now gather the bias edge of the cut handkerchief into the band. Make a seam four inches long connecting the inner edges. Adjust over the sleeves and fasten with small fancy pin.

Pressing Tucks,

To press tucks so they may look decorative and not have the usual flattened appearance, stand the iron up on end and run the tucks over the iron, holding the material firmly be- tween the hands with the tucks run ming downward. In this way the material between and beneath the tucks will be pressed as well as the tuckS

An Attractive Eur Collar

The high collar of double furs is a novel idea for wrap coats. For in- stance, the collar itself may be made of squirrel. and the lining imitation ermine. Wide cuffs to match should be turned back on the sleeves. These collars are large and picturesque. They can be muffied up round the face or laid fiat on the shoulders like a cape.

Use of Feathers.

Feathers are used in the most un- usual ways. For instance. an amazing and beautiful feather bag has made its appearance. The center part of the bag is of some birds breast iridescent brilliant feathers. Then at each side there are panniers or ruffies of ostrich iE plain color to harmonize with one of the tones in the smooth feathers Of the body of the bag,

that can be gained by the aid of one simple skirt. But that is no reason, surely, why the thing should be done badly and why the wrong blouse should be combined with the wrong skirt. The blouse, in other words, should be used to the full value of it's design and should never be allowed to be that thing which is just thrown on to make something that twill do."
