NOTHER of those practical little woolen dresses, designed for the young miss who will soon be taking up her school affairs, is pictured here. Except for its decoration of braid it s so simple as hardly to need descrip- tion. Any of the standard woolen fabrics are suited to a dress of this kind Challies should not be overlooked in making a selection, and the plainness of the model makes a wide chcice of materials possible. There are many pretty, quaintly figured patterns in challies and in other light-weight wool- ens suited to little dresses of this kind. For durability, close-woven serges are excellent. The body of the dress is made over a lining of light muslin to which a plaiting at the bottom of the dress fabric 18 sewed. The long-waisted bodice and skirt in one is draped and N SOME parts of this country the pretty custom of serving guests with light refreshments at five o'clock tea, or on other informal occasions has always been taken care of by the daughters or young women of the household. This intimate method of service is almost a universal fashion and it is to be hoped will become ong of our established customs. All sorts of airy and dainty aprons made purely for decoration and sug- gestion have been designed for the wear of the charming servitors. For these aprons the lightest and sheerest of fabrics are chosen, ranging from fine nets, through swisses and organ- dies to flowered lawns, dimities and all similar fabrics. The filne wash laces and satin ribbons are used for decorating. The narrow lace bead- ings, sewed in patterns, simulating bow-knots of ribbon, flower-forms or graceful scrolls, are machine stitched to the fabric. This beading serves to carry baby ribbon and to provide a decoration in keeping with any color scheme. Narrow insertions and frills of lace are used in any way the fancy of the maker may dictate. The re- sult is that there i8 no end to the variations of these little decorative accessories. Aprons of this kind are all small and cut in graceful and fanciful shapes. Just now & heart-shaped apron is much in vogue. Sometimes it is developed with a little heart-shaped bib attached. Ribbon decorations are nearly always in a color. Two illustrations are given here showing the latest fancies of the apron makers. One of them is an apron of plain white net trimmed with bands of organdie in white or any desired ; color. Such an apron is prettily de- i veloped in lightcolored nets and ! trimmed with ribbon. It may be pro- : vided with a pocket and further em- bellished with little ribbon bows. An apron of plain white organdie trimmed with narrow lace is shown Woolen Dress With Braid Trimming sewed to place over this lining. The shoulders are long, extending over the set-in sleeves. The dress is decorated with nar- row soutache braid in contrasting col- or, or a deeper shade of the color of the goods. A folded girdle of satin completes the garment. To keep it fresh looking detachable undersleeves -of fine muslin and a guimpe of the same are provided, to be removed and laundered when they require it. Fine all-over emYroideries may be used instead of muslin, or dotted swiss or fine lawns. It one has much time needlework may be used instead of braid for dec- orating this dress. A heavy embrold- ery floss works up rapidly, and the pattern for decoration is a matter of the individual’s fancy, though it should not be overdone. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. in the second picture. Its novel fea ture is the separate pocket, or reti- cule, made of the organdie and lace, which hangs from the waistband. Sat. in ribbon in pink or blue is used for the bows which fini:h it. Flowered organdies and lawns are used for these aprons and for the more practical sewing aprons which are made in the same size. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Medallion for Bag. In making this bag, a circle should first be drawn on the silk and then the design, marked, traced directly on- to the material from the paper, by means of carbon paper. The embroid- ery should then be done either entirely in satin stitch, or a combination of satin and outline stitch. A circle of cardboard cut to fit the medallion is then sewed into place between outer silk and lining, and after this is fin. ished the bag may then be made up. Y Silk Ribbon Belts. A favorite way of finishing the waist line when separate skirts and blouses are worn is with a ribbon or sllk belt. Wide ribbon that can be laid in folds or taffeta or satin can be used. One way of giving a smart fin- ish to these belts is to work button- holes in two little pointed ends of rib- bon in front and button these over colored glass or bone buttons. To Fringe Material. When fringing anything requiring a deep fringe, tear it up as deep as you want the fringe at intervals of a finger or so all the way across the end, then fringe out these short pleces one by one, which is a much easier way than pulling out a long thread every time and having it break and being obliged to hunt for the end with pin or needle. o [P e— Livens you up by cool- ing your body and taking the cob-webs out of your brain.
