And this tendency— | till in the air—has been felt in the choice of fabrics used. These flowered | chiffons, for instance, are nothing if not ferninine. And there is an occa- | sional frock of silk net and we are told that tulle in various soft flower shades is going to be worn for eve ning frocks in Jate Summer and Au-| tumn. » 1 Newer than the figured frock is the frock made of two of chiffon together.

Chiffon used with lace is a good combination—it fills the bill to perfec- tion, when we still demand straight, close, flat lines, bodices that are straight and yet manage to define the figure, and at the same time counte- nance considerable fullness in the skirt. It really doesn’t matter how full the skirt is, S0 long as it doesn't look Insets peries of lace are admirably suited to produce just this effect. * x x % JFIGURED foulard is one of the new- t materials to appear in Summer tashions. It is mentioned in patch from Paris and i sionally here. At the race earlier in the season man frocks were to be seén. Some in smart angular design, while others showed the conventional foulard patterns. Lanvin has shown partiality for polka-dotted foulards.

It would require the close scrutiny of an expert to tell that these cameos were imitations. The larger the pearl the better, seemed to be the idea of fashion a good taste wore strings of imitation pearls around their necks as large, almost, as nutmegs. Now there is a demand among the discriminating for strings of very small pearls. The idea, of course, is that the enormous pearl beads give themselves dead away. Of course, they couldn't be real at that size. But even the imi. tation pearls, if quite small, might be real. So there is something of gentle deception in the new fashion. * x ok ox {YOU can make a trip away from home infinitely pleasanter it you | will remember to take with you cer- | tain things to add to your comfort and health. | To begin with, take a little first-aid case of some sort—that is, containing such simple remedie: you are accustomed to usin Should include tooth paste, eve wash lotions and creams and other toilet accessorfes.
