Ell a not CdV at Ine once
~ or anywhere tnat requires that
~ you be completely clothed, the
n idea is b injury home, peel off
the hot clothes cf respectability and
make yourself cjmfcl table in 3 cool
negligee near +he electric fan with a
cooling drink ami sc .nt thing pleasant
to read.
Silk and chiffon are almost too good
TO ruin in such eXtrtIre weather and
the inexpensive cotton negligee, so
easily tubbed and made fresh again,
seems to be a better choice. Several
of the shops are showing these at re-
markably low prizes. At one place
they are featuring large number like
the one sketched at left above, in
white, aqua blue and pale pink with
sash Of contrast te.)- in silk crepe.
There is a nice yoke across the back.
These negligees WlrC originally SO -95.
but you may now have them lor the
small amount Of 81 ~.
In the same group are some with
little puff sleeves ard bertnas of
white muslin with insertions # val
lace. Some striped dimities polka
dotted in white come in the stronger
colors-red. dark blue and maize. AT
S5.95 is an especially cool looking
figured white o-ganoy with puff
sleeves and revers ara sash all of the
same material. Two sizes of large
round spots cross-lined in green give
a cool appearance to this print.
HERETOFORE the pongee coolie
coats, while plee sihg in color and
pattern, have been straight shapeless
things. They ATE now being made
like a regular neeligee, with set-in
raglan sleeves tha5 ripple about elbow
length, and collares5 with small levers
in front. The material Is used dou-
bic. with the plain rongee inslGe and
for revers. and the attractive PRINT on
the outside. These are very good to
put in your suit case to use on your
vacation trip. They are S295.
The other negligee sketched was
found among a group ct another shop
and is equally attractive with added
skirt interest. This comes in a num-
Der of pastel colors and all sizes at
SO 95. Others at a special price a
little less are Of f'owered voile and
swisses printed in scaall rose pattern
on various colOrs. One uses wide
footing around the little sleeves and
collar and is fitted in hack.
Apron dresses for cool comfort In
doing up the housework are attrac-
tive in plain colors with big. wide
revers reaching over the shoulders
edged with a ruffle outlined in two
colors of narrow tapping. They are
sleeveless and the little pocket on the
skirt is finished like the collar ruff1e.
Sea green is cool one and they are
only Sl.49. ++++
IF YOU want to melt away some
superf1uous inches of flesh that
YOU have accumulated in the wrong
places. try . reducing girdle these
good hot days. They should work
now if ever. They are made of heavy
perforated rubber, chemically treated
TO overcome q strong rubber odor'
They should be wiped of with a wet
cloth after each wearing and sprin-
kled with powder before wearing
They do not have as long life as
regular girdle, but, of course, are in
tended for a different purpose. We
are told in the shop that one GUS
toner gets one every two weeks and
is having wonderful results in reduc-
ing those troublesome cushions of fat.
It is worth trying at least. In the
same texture there is sport girdle
that is very brief and without garters
which may be worn under a bathing
