At least one little waist that is frilledruffled ineertkmed piped or otherwisetrimmed is indispensable in the femininewardrobe tThese little waists are the ony fluffyarticles of wearing apparel which arepermitted with the strictly tailormade Some are of cream color othersare of delicate tone repeating the bodycolor of the suit and all are hand embroidered-

It is a boast with many girls that theypossess no lees than ten lingerie waistsall crisply laundered and laid with tinysachets of violet or Japanese scent inthe cedar chests reserved for themWhile this seems an unusually largenumber for a reserve stock it is eeeential that the cOMing bride fresh college girl or dame of any degree own asmany as two elaborate waist for best

One can be of pink flowered chiffoncrepe over pale pink silk the shouldersshirred the yolk of all over princesslace cut deeply square and outlinedwith a shaped collar on which has beentraced with gold thread a Japanese design of leaves Tiny ruffles of vallace soften the hard line of the yokeand finish neck and sleeves

The same idea is carried out in crispsilks and taffetas for the breezy outdoor damsel who cares little for flouncesand frills This maid wears with herdoublebreasted jacket checked andstriped waists strapped with bands ofthe same material

For wear with these waists a goodskirt of white broadcloth or voile forevening and a dark cheviot for streetwear are absolute necessities

WIFE OF COUNT TOLSTOY

MOTHER OF THIRTEENHELPS HER HUSBAND-

The woman who considers herselfhard worked in keeping up with societymight take a lesson in usefulness fromthe life of Mme

The countess who was a woman ofcourt circles born and bred to affluencehas met the difficulties whlcn her hus-bands views entail with remarkable-tact and wisdom Despite the care ofa large family for she is the mother otthirteen children and has the

of an estate she finds time to asmet her husband in literary labors

Count Tolstoys is exceedinglydifficult to decipher and patiencewith which his copies the booksbears witness to her devotion She hasco studied her huaoands vegetariantastes that she is quoted as saying thatshe could give dinners onand vegetables 9K days in the year andnever one

DO IT YOURSELFDepending on others is like a cake

minus baking powder you can alwayscount on a fall down

The girl who does it herself neednever lose beauty sleep wondering if itbe done

As well put faith in the weather withinvitations out for a garden party asto feel dead certain of otoers doingthat promised task

What you do yourself may not bewell done but at least you are ofttin anxious bench

As well count on the unboned lacecollar to cling back of the ears as getItp dependent habit

how to do things yourselfand them rcakes you as indifferent to the xhhnc oT others as a deadbeat to debts

ATTRACTIVE NECK FIXINGS

ARE MADE EASILY

AT HOMEThese hot days when exercise

is too heating get your busyand make yourself some of the innumerable neck fixings that every girlloves and few girls can buy

One of the newest and smartest wornby a girl who has just come from London is so easily copied that I shall tellyou about itIt is a very full tulle ruffle for outdoorwear around the center withbroad soft ribbon finished with loopsand at the back of the left ear

The ruffle is made of two strips oftulle eight inches wide and long enough-to make a full ruche around theneck Four or five times the width ofthe neck is not too much to allow asthe ruffles must be pulled down into

as in the frills on paper lamp-shades

Double over the strips of tulleand gather them to a of

about two inches wide that fitsthe neck One ruffle stands up and theother down as in the Pierrot ruche

Under tle bow at the side put hooksand eyes for fastening

Use messaline or other softribbon and draw it lit rolda around thecrinoline The bow is made with three-or four outstanding loops and two endsthat the shoulder blade

The ribbon usually matches the tullein color as is a tone Theone copied was if the new banana shadeof tulle with chiffon velvet ribbon in asoft cinnamon tone

WASHING SILK RIBBON-As summed is a season of ribbons and

as they quickly spoil every woman is in-terested to know how to freshen themespecially when is away from theshops

The following to a good method Takeequal parts of alcohol and highly reedfled benfeine Be sure to use and mixthem in out of dtors or in A roomwhere there is no flame of kind

Put the ribbons in a bowl and spongethem well preferably using a

gently before theyare dry and fold paper orin a with orris root or anysachet you have This takes off theodor of the benzine

JET HAT PINS

Round and Egg ShapesSome as Large as Golf

Balls Popular

Large hat pine are very muchworn of either round or ogrshape thelatter the size of a pigeons egg and theformer that of a golf ball

Venetian bead necklaces are agreat vogue the delicate colors antiooinblnaUons serving to enhancecostume to which they are allied Small-er beads worked after the Old Worldstyle into chains and necklaces are alsoin great request

HandpaJntod chickenskin fans areprime favorites of the moment designed-on Louts Seise lines while a pompadourmodel almost round in shape is ac-counted of the utmost elegance Thehandpaintings usually depict somedainty TVatteau design

The cult of color may be termed oaeof the leading medtstfe features of themoment We not only go bankages in search of subdued artistic tintsbut contrive to combine these in cleveringenious fashion to modern expressions-of shades variously called old bluevioux rose Empire green and buffbrows These in reality although bear-ing strong resemblance to their aneeators fare quite latterday products

Sentiment Counts for MuchOne cannot help but wonder whether

the fascination that inevitably lingersaround antique productions rests enreal intrinsic values or whether

sentiment has not a large word tosay in its fqvor Personally I ratherincline to the side of the more genuineworth of Old World workmanship moreindividual interest wee put into it andwhere one piece was then turned outthousands are not required

Modern lace nowaver beautiful nat-urally lacks the soft subduing Influence-of age but whether this comato these Utterda dentellev is a factonly to be proved by future generations-An expert in the cause has gravedoubts her argument being that theflan now employed lacks the superfinequality of yore while some needlesfound concealed a d forgotten in an oldneedlepoint lace outfit revealed infin-itesimal proportions quite unprocurabletoday

Some old Venetian tape lace also wsshown us worked we are told in adamp cellar the humid atmospherebeing necessary to keep the thread inthe requisite condition Such atate of things would not be permissiblehi these days with hygiene officialsstalking in our midst and as most willagree a very good thing too

AN ODD EVENING SLEEVE-So many tricks have been tried in

sleeves for the last few months tatthere is no telling what kind of draperywill next be substituted for a genuinesleeve-

A new idea on a smart French gownis in this connectfcm quite worth de-scribing It is on a gown that is to beworn in the JUHNHB although by the useof a abort underateeve halfway to theelbow it can be made of service for asmart afternoon affair where one weirslong sleeves

It is a band of lace in filetweave embroidered with an octopus

of silver bullion The lace beginsin A point at the top of the empire beltthen each goes up to the armhole-is attached to side and top of itand then ends abruptly at the bust with-a bullion ornament

There is no other kind of sleeve on thebodice

NEW VELVET ANIMALSFascinating black and white velvet

Animate are quite familiar to all Thisie particularly true shoe the plushTeddy bear leaped into such fremledpopularity that the crippled little Ger-man woman who originated them hasIn than a decade risen from pau-perism to the state of a nearmilliondress

one tried to the famousbear without violating that patent lawsignified the sign geechutz in thehand of the animal himself but thbest they could do was to make pussy-cats bunnies and monkeys of velvet

This summer they have still furtherornamented their efforts by giving eachanimal a square pink satin face andif their is not increased they atleast challenge notice

A BELTING JUMPERBmbroidered linen belting in white

and color may be bought by the yardand a very clever little lady has used itto make herself a Jumper A doublethickness over each shoulder from thewaist line in the front to the waistline in the back is the foundation ofthe garment while a few straps acrossthe back and front give the whole avery Junperllke appearance

The four loops at the waist line formed the shoulder straps are used toslip the belt through so when it isworn with a white and blouse theeffect is of one of the popular onepiecedresses

It Is Just such an arrangement thatmakes it possible to wear a blouse andskirt without a coat
