It is trimmed with a ‘two-inch wide band of blue or red braid, or both, down the front of the waist. The beit and the hem of the skirt are edged with the same material. There is no collar to this suit, which makes it particularly comfortable to swim in. For a tall, slender girl there is a stylish suit of the same material, with a plaited Gibsor: waist and gored skirt. Ancther novelty this year is a striped suit, with a large red sailor collar while the wide braided from with the same material, gored skirt is elaborately wa'st to hem. There is also a navy blue flannel suit, with a finely plaited skirt and large col- lar, trimmed with white braid; and fancy alpaca suits in brown, red, blue and black, with large circular collars, trimmed with gilt and white tubular = braid. ''ie belts are plain and the skirts are gored without trimming. The proper thing with all these suits are fancy striped and ribbed stockings and caps to match. The new shirt walst suits may be fas- tered either front or back. One of the prettiest shown on this page is of. plain mercerized silk-finished batiste, trimmed with embroidery galloons, large medal- lions and velvet ribbons. The skirt is made after the latest full flare Jounoce pattern. Another pretty washable costume is of tancy white Swiss trimmed with black festoon lace, The blouse is made with a white lace-trimmed vest, elbow sleeves, with extra inserted sleeves, and finished at the walst with black velvet ribbon. Down the back there are three rows of black chantilly festoon lace, and six rows down the front, with two rows running from the shoulder to the elbow. The skirt is made in a flounce, with fan back, trimmed with a circular festoon of the same Chantilly lace, with a lawn drop. The hat should match. One of the most effective is a new walking design of Paname straw trimmed with the same lace and white chiffon, with a large quill or a rose or two, as the taste of the wearer dictates. Another pretty shirt waist suit is in white and pink. The waist is plain white Swiss, elaborately tucked, with & tucked Bertha edged with Valenclennes lace. The neck is low and the sleeves are short, but there is an extra gimp, which may be worn if desired. The half-sleeves, with a wide flare at the elbow and a deep drop, are finished with the latest tucked handkerchief effect, elaborated with a nd of soft pink satin liberty ribbon. The girdle is of the same material. The skirt is tucked in Vandyke points with Valenciennes insertion, and the deep flounce is also elaborately tucked. Still another effective fancy shirt waist suit is of ecru batiste trimmed in blue. The waist is made with wide tucks trimmed with Clunie lace galloons and finished with a yoke of fine batiste and Valenciennes insertions. The sleeves are tucked to the elbow, the same as the waist, where they are finished with fine Clunie lace galloons. From the elbow to the walst the sleeve is of delicate batlste, Wwith ecru lace insertion about three-quar- ters of an inch wide, which shows the pretty pink of the arms and shoulders gleaming beneath. The skirt is elaborately tucked to match the walist, with Clunie lace festoons run- ning from tuck to hem, while the big flounce is trimmed, both top and bottom, with the same material. The entire suit is. lned with soft blue batiste, which gives a very dainty and cool, summery ef- fect to the whole costume. One of the new walking suits with the postilion back is made of plain golf bas- ket cloth. The Eton is trimmed with vel- vet piping and stitched velvet pointed tabs In rows of three. - The skirt has a graduated flare flounce with eleven rows of stitching. At the bottom and top of the flounce brown velvet piping is used to match the trimming on the jacket. The new pedestrian woolen cloth skirts in summer weights for both walking and golfing are prettily becoming. One of the very latest is made with eleven gores, flaring _at _the bottom like a morning glory. Each gore has a stitched strap finished at the bottom, with three buttons over ten rows of fine stitching. These skirts come in tan and black and the fashionable shade of oxblood. Of the more practical novelties of the season there are washable cotton outing skirts, made in 'plain and fancy striped covert cloth and brown linen, linen erash, plque and duck skirts in pedestrian and full dress lengths, finished in tucked, strapped and bias folds, becomingly trimmed. For golfing the fancy knitted vests, striped or solid colors, with double rows of gold buttons, still find most favor. With them is worn a large puff tie over a deep soft stock. The tennis skirt this year is in either white pique or white duck, with three buttons on each side in front and invert- ed pleat in the back. The shirt waist to be worn with this is the Maxime effect, the yoke back. Of hats there nev more beauti- fully becoming variety, and it is a strange thing to find the nobbiest of them being sold this year side by side with men’'s head gear in the most fashionable mascu- line batteries.
