With geometric nicety the skirt was laid from waist to below ,he knees in front in tucks placed close together and of a narrowness that forced them to stand out straight , rom 11*6 surface of the goods. The tuck , in g grew shorter a< the rear of the Jupo . and thus created a full flounce-like efTect 1 abou * foot. With this skirt was worn a captivating shirt waist of finest white linen, relieving with polka dots of zinc blue and a collar, tie and broad girdle of plain white linen.

The dress of which I speak Is going to a lakeside resort not far from Chicago, and it will be used for going to call and to teas in a smart automobile. As you the effect aimed at is the ever popular princess mode, and this broad, horizontal tucking on the skirt and waist is the latest popularity for slim, well figured women. Down the front from throat to toes the continuous panel is outlined by bands of heavy cream guipure on the wool, and hand some wheels of guipure set at intervals down the center of the panel harmonize with the lace efTect, repeated in epaulettes on the collar and at the cuffs. The one touch of color is a strap and bow of pastel yellow taffeta at the waist line. If I do say it myself, that is a quite perfect A White Mohair Suit, an Ideal Boating and Picnic Costume for Lake George. suit, and I have bought to go with It a pastel yelow silk parasol having a white handle and a flaring pompadour hat of pastel yellow straw with a huge cabbage of white silk at one side. A Novelty in Moarning. ‘‘Here you will see something quite new this season,” continued the modiste with agreeable garrulity. "The v/hite mourn ing-only the unmarried women wear It so far, and we don’t consider anything but white etamtne, crepe, lusterlees taffeta, India lawn, etc., as strictly mourning, and we trim, with dead surface, taffeta ribbon and white velvet a good deal. One of the sweetest suits I have made this season Is a pure white etamlne trimmed with white crepe, and the hat was a white mohair shape, set off with white crepe folds and bows and a few clusters of white pearl de jardin rosea so arranged that no foliage showed. A dull white taf feta parasol and white shoes made this one of the most becoming and suitable driving or church dresses I have turned out of my work-Tooms in six months. New Dancing in Footgenr.

That means with or without the gloves, shoes, hose, hat, parasol, hair ornament, handkerchief and fan, or whatever Is necessary to make It a rounded out costume. Fsually with hall dresses we supply the slippers an.l lisle or silk stockings, and the smartest bit of smartness Just now Is steel grey lace kid slippers, embroidered on the toes In grey chenille and steel or Jet beads Grey silk hose go with these, and they are peppered over with black chenille dots and steel points. "Just as new, but not yet quite so pop ular, are absolutely undecoraled dancing sandals of black or white panne worn with very gay hosiery. For example, with one pair of black panne shoes I sent a pair of white lisle hose having a won drous broad zig-zag line embroidered in Mark directly down the front of tne leg. With a pair of white slipper* I sold pure Irish green silk hose, elaborately open worked up the front of the ankle to show the pale pink of the dainty foot beneath.” At this Juncture there was a violent ringing at the telephone In the dressmak er’s sanctum and a voice In squeaky, but peremptory tones vibrating through the receiver, sent the mistrees of the robes off In * iiurry to less congenial tasks than the tale of her triumphs in the designing and execution ot masterly frocks. ...Alary Dean.
