to Fold Easily Into Summer Bag
gage.
fort in way nothing else could. Every
time the owner puts 1t on she will
thank kind Providence for having
led her to the decision that brought
that particular article Of apparel into
her wardrobe.
The handmade dress and cape to
match is the sort of thing that is born
for packing. The fabric is a heavy
canton crepe, and the dress is made
along the straightest of lines. There
are lines of hemstitching and drawn
work for its. trimming, and there Is
not a frill or furbelow that can suffer
from packing. Anyone who has owned
one of these frocks knows how small
place they take up when folded to-
gether, and how satisfactory they are
through many months of wear and
tear.
Cape Of Same Material.
This dress has a cape made of the
same material and lined with light.
weight crepe de chine. 1t may be worn
with this dress or with others as a
light summer evening wrap. and, for
that reason, 1t serves place in the
travellers wardrobe which cannot
easily he taken by any other sort of
garment. Presumably the reader has
worn a suit while travelling, and has
carried an extra heavy wrap over her
arm, but neither the sutcoat nor the
outer wrap Is going to serve for eve
ming demands with which she will be
confronted, no matter where she goes.
But this wrap can be folded into the
smallest of spaces and taken forth on
many occasions. Without it a woman
would be quite at loss and if she at
tempted to pack anything with more
weight and body and trimming then
she would find herself forced into add
ing extra luggage to accommodate the
extra frills.
Keep the cape simple and the dress
simple and half of the travelling bat
tie is fought. And If the reader fol-
lows the scheme. she will have n silk
suit which can always be worn for aft
ernoon, often for evening, and some
times in the morning hours. More
over, silk is cool. 1t can stand wet
weather and when II colder day makes
Its appearance the owner can still look
well in silk dress under her heavier
coat. There is no angle from which
u dress of this character Is not salts
factory, and this season to be right in
the height of style It is desirable to
have 1t made of that cafe au lait color
which has taken the place o. gray in
smart circles 1t is color which goes
with most everything and which Is be-
coming to many types.
Avoid Extra Hat Box.
BY avoiding the extra hat box, the
traveller may save herself all sorts of
worry and bother and porter fees. For,
with only one bag, she can, in an emer-
gency, drag herself and 1t around. but
with two the situation becomes hope
less. She will find when she starts to
shop that there are all sorts of little
and becoming hats that can be folded
along with dresses as fiat as can be,
md which will still emerge with none
of that mashed appearance. She will
live to thank herself for providing her
self with this sort of hat instead of
the sitter variety which must be cared
for so particularly and which, even
then. is apt to come forth after
train or boat trip with that sad and
dropping appearance for which there
ia no salvation.
There are little woolen hats done In
bright and Interesting colors Some
are made Of draped ribbons, and
sturdy ones of blocked felt that mash
into small places with the greatest
agility and come forth to surprise one
by their well-groomed look.
