'FOR SUMMER COMFORT | DRESSY LITTLE GOWN DESIGNED FOR THE SMALL MAIDEN. Simple One-Plece Style That ls At tractive and Quiet—Collariess Neck and Short Sleeves the Things for Juvenile Wear. The illustration gives a little gown with quite a dressy alr, yet nothing could be simpler than this modest, one-plece style, with its flat collar in two sections, the short, wide sleeves and the very restrained skirt trim- ming. White percale figured with pink rosebuds is the material of the frock, which a little cheap lace insertion and a belt of pink louisine ribbon set off well. Lawn and muslin are other adaptable materials for a dainty and youthful effect, and if the dress is of dotted swiss it could be made very grand with a trimming of three nar- row frills, these put at the hottom of the skirt and to edge the collar and sleeves. White shoes and s:ockings and a pink hair ribbon go with this pretty get-up, which, all told, could be made to cost less than four dollars.

Did it ever occur to you that ther is too much segregation of ages in present-day society? coming, juvenile frocks for hot weath- er use should certalnly be made In that way. Then it 1s far more sensible to laun- der the frocks without starch, the stif- fening, even of the slightest, adding to warmth, and as to this point fash- fon calls for soft laundering. All of the stout frocks worn by smart chil- dren are done up without sgtarch, ginghams, piques and the heaviest linens and crashes coming from the troning board with a limp fall, Where the drees material 1s heavy enough, too, to do without them, petti- coats should be dropped In hot weath- er and bloomers or wide drawers in the dress materlal worn.

What a Satisfaction fo Purchase Goods at an Up-to-Date Dep’t Store (. We use discrimination in buying, and are able to show our customers a complete line of everything carried in the centers of fashion. Glves Delightfully Cool Appearance During the Summer Months, and Also Has Its Own Charm in the Winter. Besides being cool and restful in summer the white and green room has the advantage of extending the sum- mery out of doors feeling into the winter months. It may be library, re- ception or lving room and should, aslde from its green tints, show only neatral colors. If the woodwork of the room is finished in white the own- er is fortunate: if not, a painter will convert the ugliest grained wood to a glossy white at a small cost. When this has been accomplished brass or wrought fron fixtures upon the doors will increase their beauty. In selecting the wall paper the light conditions of the room should be considered. If a dark room is to be decorated a very light paper should be selected, and vice versa, No sim- ple wall covering Is prettier or more permanently satisfactory than plain cartridge paper, Select a shade that is ncither yellow nor blue, but rather a gray green, Let the plain paper cover the wall only up as far as the tops of windows and doors. Between this and the cell- ing use a tapestry paper depicting foll- age, In which the design is not pro- nounced. Let the celling be white or pale gray green, and in the angle place a plain picture molding of white or dark green wood, If the room has a hardwood floor, so much the better; if not the edges may be painted with two coats of hard enamel paint as near the shade of the plain paper as you can get, Buy if possible for this room a plain green drugget with self-colored border of lighter or darker shades. You will find this a constant delight, because of its restful, qulet character, These rugs may be bought in varlous tex- tures and weaves; the plain, tightly woven, flat surfaces selling for as lit- tle as $18 for the 9 by 12 sizes. Plain net curtains hung from brass extension rods and reaching only to the sill have on white curtain rods overdraperies of the same length of madras or etamine in which green is the predominating color. In a room with a background of this quiet character almost any furniture may be used. The mission designs are in keeping as well as wicker, sea grass or upholstered furniture. The upholstery should be of a neutral tint that will not clash with surroundings. Do not use too many pictures or too much bric-a-brac.
