DOTTED SWISS FABRICS

nNE OF the washable cotton
" fabrics which appear in the
stores with the first warm days
is dotted Swiss" At the same
time there are numerous other
figured and dotted materials Of
fered for sale, and while most of
them are useful for dresses or
other purposes, the housekeeper
probably prefers to know what
she Is buying. The United States
Department of Agriculture ex-
plains some of the processes used
in making these dotted fabrics.
Genuine dotted Swisses are inn
ported from Switzerland, as the
name indicates. They are made
on what are called swivel looms,
by a somewhat expensive process,
and are not extremely cheap. The
material is a fine muslin, very
thin and transparent, stiff and
crisp, usually with a pattern of
dots or small figures. which are
often in a contra sting color.
These figures or dots are pro-
duced by the method Of weaving
with a special set of shuttles, in
vented in Switzerland. One con-

the entire figure unless different
coIors are used. It may extend
to the next figure or It may be
clipped. Such figures are always
very durable.
Various limitations are made in
this country. in which design is
introduced in numerous legitimate
ways. but these materials are not
dotted Swiss. One type Of figure
Is known as clipped" Another
is made by slappet weaving, a
method by which an extra yarn is
stitched into a design by small
needles carrying it down the
length of the fabric in a zigzag
line. An embroidery-like process
may be used.
Dots may be formed by floats
which are unbound filling or warp
yarns left on the surface IN a de.
sign. They may be produced by
flock printing" which consists
in applying them in the form OF
a paste to the material, or by
discharge printing"

WAISTLINE is
ON THE RISE

s6WHERE is my waist-line go
w ing to wander this sea
SOM" is what every woman is
asking these days:
1t Is certain now that the
waist-line, like the troublesome
Seine river. is on the rise. Every
dressmaker is putting it higher
and many have even dared to put
1t back where IT used to be IN
the days gone by. And while the
average woman will certainly
wear a rather low waist.line dur
ing the coming summer months,
the woman of fashion, the woms
an who wants to lead in the little
things, will buy at least one or
two afternoon or evening frocks
in which the waist-Iine is neatly
stressed in its normal place.
1t will take some months for
people to get accustomed to tho
almost unnatural look of the line
that is no longer floating some
where about the hips. But charm
ing effects can be obtained with
the new one, particularly on tai
feta frocks with ample skirts.
These have always been Jeanne
Lanvin's specially and almost
every other gown in her collec.
ton shows the normal waist and
long wide skirt.
or course there is a dangerous
thing about this attempt to raise
the waist-line. For the waist
should be slender and graceful If
placed at the normal point and
what with no corsets, vigorous
sports, ETC., modern Eve has no
longer the enchanting wasp waist
OF her grandmother. Now the
question is whether we are going
to see the revival OF the corset or
whether the effect of the slim
waist will be obtained by contrast
with very ample skirt or sleeves.
Francis is showing the normal
waist-line even on spring coats
and taileurs. Chez Lenief 1t is
placed rather high on the hips

line In conjunction with a mean
dering hemline, often double so
