that is especially popular this season
is kilt skirt of plaid wool. cut a
length to show the knees; a tailored
blouse of pongee, and IA box coat of
homespun in plain or mixture. This
is called three-piece suit ana is
made for a youn2 lady of ten or
twelve years, though the utility and
chicness of the model have created a
demand for it in smaller and larger
sizes. With it, for the younger girls,
are worn soft felt hat with narrow
brim, or an Angora tam, heavy wool
stockings and flat-heel calfskin shoes.

wearing silk stockings and dressy

These three-piece suits are done In
a number of combinations, usually
with the plated skirt, which may be
80 conveniently worn with any jacket
or blouse and which Is so comfortable
for indoor everyday wear when the
coat Is laid aside. Varying the plaid
and plain goods together, some smart
little suits are made all of the home
spun and tweeds, occasionally with
narrow tailored skirt. Charming cos
sumes for more dressy occasions are
made of velvet. With all these, pretty
soft overblouses Of crepe or pongee
are worn, and many of fine white linen
or muslin, that always give girls
toilet such an appearance of crisp
freshness.
Velvet is quite the rage this season,

suits, coat and skirt. to be worn with
any pretty waist and for the one-piece

athletics and outings, and the garment
of serge or cheviot with bloomers In
several styles, for service. But the
crepes and voiles, soft silks and geor-
gettes are almost universal In their
vogue.
Simplicity is the keynote and In the
best models elaboration Of any kind is
expressed In touch of needlewoyk,

The crepes are adapted to these
modes and are shown in lovely shades
of the popular colors, browns and

hand embroidery in shades of green

man colors is wound about the waist
and tied in loose knot at one side.
A tassel of mixed colors finishes each
end of the sash.
There is sentiment toward the
revival OF sheer muslin and tulle for
