In the last eleven years there has

been brought about by the pre-

In New York City the death rate
has been practically cut in two

have kept statistics for more

OF life has increased in a re-

DAINTY HOUSE
DRESSES
BY Rita Stuyvesant-

mings Of white linene? A one
piece kimono affair with short
sleeves and oval neck is bound in
a two-inch bias white strip, and
big patch pockets also are topped
in white. A sash of self material
bound in white is tied at the hips.
This simple house dress might
also be made up in green, pink,
rose. Dutch blue, light blue, or.
child or tan, with white trimmings.
or you might select any of the
lovely ginghams and use a plain or
white trimming. Plain chambray
with gingham trimmings is an
other pleasing variation.
Cotton crepe in navy, taupe, bot
tie green or tobacco brown is smart
and inexpensive, as is q one-piece
kimono frock with short sleeves
and oval neck and the convenient
elastic at the waist line. For trim
ming, nothing is so simple as a bit
of wool stitchery, and this may be
merely three rows of darning stitch
or cross stitch, done in contrasting
worsteds.
Wool Jersey tubing is practical
for wear at home, and is made con-
veniently into one.piece frocks,
with a bit of wool stitchery to re-
lieve the plainness.
. A new apron is made with a
Nrap bodice and strings In one,
tied at the back in big pert bow.
The skirt part is rather full and
falls to the hem of the frock. Gre
tonne, chambray with cretonne
trimmings or black sateen with
cretonne bindings is effective.
