ribbon as a dress fabric or dress trim

evening gowns in which gorgeous rlD-

One of the advantages of using rib
bon for panels or trains is that its

own lining, usually, and is really a
time saver for the home dressnaker.
Then, too, ribbons come in such lovely

them.

Mr.. Tubbs with folded arms, looking
round upon the company with an ex-

CRAvATS FOR STREET SUITS
Separate Collar of Soft Material
Crosses in Back and Is Knotted
in Center Front.

Jenny shows in her new collection a
most original cravat made to be worn
with her street suits. This separate
collar is of soft material, goes around
the neck, crosses in the back and is
knotted In the center front with
streamers which fall to the knees.
Their embroidered ends hang down be-
meath the coat. In color the cravat
h.armonizes with the tone Of the suit,
though in many instances it Is of
black velvet or beige satin. One can
imagine how much the bare and I'M
becoming neck line of coat, worn
over the prevailing bateau blouse, Is
relieved by this separate high collar.
Jenny emphasizes the draped gown,
achieving the unusual by placing a
pocket at the side Of every skirt where
the drapery fastens. In this pocket is
a chic linen handkerchief matching in
color the touch of embroidery on the
dress.

Humanity, in its acquisition of
knowledge, its hopes, its aspirations,
it's ideals, is in a state Of steady de-
velopment. In art, it Is the personal
expression Of the artist, his individ-
uality-shown not only in mere tricks
Of style, but in his state of mind, his
attitude toward the world about him
which counts most in the end. And
that Is why art In any form is not
a matter only Of mere copying Of facts.
The line to be drawn is not always
easy to define, perhaps. But one may
best regard some extreme examples.
The demand for subject and realism
found strong expression in the vogue
enjoyed by the chromos years ago.

The colors introduced into organizes
were taken from the silk color card.
The shades are SO wonderfully pro-

them in a cotton material-rather do
they give the appearance Of thin silks.
