The Twill Weave.

Yes. madam, that little twill dress
will wear" the salesgirl may tell
you as you look at "readymades."
And you are very sensible, indeed,
if you do decide on a twill weave.
whether your dress is to be ready
to-wear or a garment OF your own
concoction. For the object of twill
weaving is not simply to produce
cloths that are more fancy and at
tractive than the plain fabrics. but
10 make them heavier and stronger.
Twills are almost always closer In
texture than plain weaves are.
Most twills have a diagonal APP
pearance--the surfaces are covered
with diagonal lines running across
the cloth. If these lines are very
plainly marked. the cloth is known
as diagonal" rather than twill, but
it should not be forgotten that dag
onals are nothing but extremely
clearly marked twills.
In twill weaves, the threads do not
go over and under regularly. as they
do In plain weaves. Instead, the
threads are so woven that they go
over one and under two or over one
and under three. four, hve or six; or
over two or three and under one,
two. three or four: and there may be
several other combinations.

When We Go Shopping
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN.

BY the use of yarn OF different
sizes, Of different qualities and OF
different colors many effects are
possible. Again, weavers can vary
the directions Of the diagonal lines
to almost any angle. The lines may
curve. wave, be broken or go un-
broken. When the direction of the
diagonal lines Is reversed. at short
intervals, so as to form a Zigzag line,
the pattern Is called "herringbone,"
because Of supposed likeness to
the Arrangement of the backbone in
a herring.
Among the twills, those OF cotton
may be jean, ticking, drilling. MOLE
skin. canton flannel, twilled dimity.
Linen twills include linen ticking.
drilling. table and towel drills and
marsella cloths. Among wool twills
are serge, prunella, cashmere, buck
skin. merino and tibet. Silk twills
include silk serge, twill foulard and
silk croise.
or all weaves. twill is one OF the
most satisfactory. 1t is a firm, COM
pact cloth, which wears well and
keeps it's shape better than many of
the other weaves do. Some people
also consider it better looking. 1t
has this one drawback: although
twill cloth seems to starry clean
longer than a plainly woven cloth
does. because the dirt is not 50 i'm
mediately noticeable, it Is harder to
clean.
Even so. for all-around purposes
one does we'll to choose the time
defying twill.

Crepe Blouse With Crystal Beads
by NARY NARsHALL.

The inevitable aftermath OF the
two-piece suit Is the blouse.
Oh, to be sure you can dodge the
issue By buying q lace or lingerie Or
embroidered net "front"--the sort
that all the shops have in abundance
at their neckwear counters. But that
means that your suit loses It's distinct
advantage as q suit. It becomes to
all practical purposes just q street
frock, since the Jacket cannot be re-.
moved.
But II you wear your suit as a
suit then there is the blouse ques-
ton to solve. And 1t isn't always
simple.
Surprises are pretty sure to await
you when you go blouse shopping.
Almost overnight q crop OF new
blouses has arrived, fresh and color '
ful as the first spring crocuses. In
fact. it Is the light, bright. luminous
colors OF the first spring flowers that
seem to have been chosen for the
new blouses-not the pastel tones. on
the other hand. or the high, richer COLI
ors of the later flowers. Jonauil
yellow cyclamen, orchid, hyacinth
blue are all represented.
1t is with something of q surprise
that you see the new beaded blouses-
for beaded blouses seem so dedntteiy
to have been abandoned by we'll
dressed women. But these new
beaded blouses have already found
exponents among them. Quite diff
ferent are they from their precursors.
On crepe OF a clear light color the
beads are of clear or colored crystal.
and often the pattern Is spread out
over the entire blouse. not weighing
it down very heavily here or there.
The sketch shows one OF these
newcomers-of yellow crepe dc chine
embroidered in crystal beads.

ventured to peep out of the little
cupboard in which their home was
hidden. Only their friend the avia-
