It is that piece of gracefulness which accompanies you when you are having your most restful and your foolest hours—cool because you aré Men treated to periods of inactivity @na what breezes there are play over you and over the wraithlike coverings ‘with the greatest possible amount of Joy to all concerned. New, for every girl there comes the question of how, though she be cool @nd comfortably adjusted to the sur- rounding temperature, to be beautiful at the same time. For, you know, it is this summer weather that takes the very gimp out of your spirits and makes you feel ax though no effort of yours was going to be spent in adding beauty to any small degree of com- fort. still, you are’so miserable when the picture you make on the occasion even of rest—is not one of entire harmony and ease with the thing which you represent. The trick is easy, really. The makers of negligees are doing so much fm your favor. They are making it @ simple thing for you to step into any store and provide yourself with Jaciness and chiffons that will be en- tirely suitable to your personality and that will, at the same time, keep you a part of the picture wherever you may happen to be. Look at th hree pic- tures on this page for ribave proof ef that fact.

Any of these caps allow the most charming part of your head dress to show and obscure that which might, at odd times, be more or less dis- arranged. You have the little wring- lets about the face and if they are not yours by a natural gift it takes only a minute or two to curl them into place, whereas the arrangement of a whole headdress would be quite too time consuming and depressing for ‘any hot summer morning or evening. When the lace arrangement of a boudoir headdress takes the shape of a really truly cap then it must be tucked in at one side’ as is the one in the picture with the bunch of orange blossoms on the left side. But when it is one of these strips of lace, then it can be augmented with two stiff taffeta’ bows perkily stretching their ways at right angles to the head on ‘either side. This sort of a cap leaves the hair on the crown of your head’ sticking out, but then that is rather charming and the loose ends can be very easily gathered together under the strip of lace, bets oR Smart Dressing Beginning at Five O our children set the style? Or D do they copy it? If you look at the pictures of these two coats and the little dress that goes with them, you will be de- ciding with me that a copy or two in & grown-up interpretation ts what you have been looking for all along. Now whether the clever designers of these little things created them with a view to inspiring the grown-ups or whether she took her inspiration from more mature things to begin with—well, that is the eternal ques- tion. At any rate, we have here three of the simplest and smartest little bits Of style that we could hope to find in @ day's journey and the ways in which they are cut and made are well worth considering from many points of view. It is worth while to look at the cut of all three of the tiny garments. Straight lines are the foundation of the whole idea. It is so much easter to see, in children's dresses, how hap- pily straight lines work out, and then these particular Mttle children have posed their costumes so delightfully that there is no mistaking the artistry of the cut or the effectivness with which it works into the general scheme of things. The little cape wrap is an exquisite thing in itself. You can see how it is shaped but slightly from the should- er to the place where the arm comes through and which might te called a sleeve. This is a fai! wrap made of blue twill with # ining of yellow silk and a design of embroidery done in yellow wool. Then there is a yellow woolen fringe applied all around the edge of the garment, accentuating the simplicity of its outline and adding that brilliant touch of color which is so much a part of the present fashion, whether It be for babyhood, youth, or middle age. The yellow lining - about in a now retiring and ag#n quite a self-protruding manner, ¢ ‘Then there is the little coat wit”;,"16 aquare sleeves, The shaping ¢, ‘tho thing is so subtle the proportic this wrap, too, stands many a more grewn-up and portant one, There is recommend it for a sort of and temperament, if only its lines are clongated a trifle and its breadth Increased a bit All of the little French children love to wear bright colors, or at least their mas like them to do this. Now this little coat is no exception to the general rule for it is made of the sweetest of rose colors. There is braid- in rows done with gray braid and there is a gray silk lining, so that the symphony of the whole little garment is something to be proud of and glory in, ‘The small velvet dress is just a slip made in the simplest way and posed as a model for re im- eve Your Old Dress Will Make a New One for the Kiddie By Grace M.

A little touch of color in the trimming will mak them as ef- fective and pleasing to the kiddies as new ones. As you can wear pongee silk a long time without it béing any the for the wear, perhaps you have a dress of that material which is a little out of style I m it make a smart middy suit for the litti boy The sail nd the could be trimmed with silk navy braid, Or instead of a suit a dress which is becoming to every wors carelessly (it looks carelessly, but it isn't) over a soft little chiffon under dress, The overslip is rose color and the under one is in a deep crew shade, so that the one sets off thi other, and both of them together suc ceed in making about the most b: coming childish frock that one could well imagine. The drooping hats are the ones for children, unless they turn up in a very marked and decided manner, but those that verge on the poke bonnet or in some way resemble that classic shape are those that make the little faces look their sweetest and most alluring. Many times, as is the case of the one worn with the cape wrap, the hat {s made from the same material as the coat and both are embroidered in identically, the same way, little girl can be made by gathering it in the front and back at the neck edge and letting it hang perfectly loose. It can have elbow-length kimono sleeves or short puffed sleeves, This dress requires little or no trimming, but if a trimming is desired an em- broidered border in bright colored silk would be very pretty. From an oid cress of gingham or chambray, or a dress of any material which is closely woven, bloomer dresses which are suitable for both little boys and girls can be made, As these dresses are generally used for the children to play in, they ought to be made as gay as possible. For Instance, animal applique designs cut out of contrasting colored material sewn on the pockets or on the front of the dresses will make them quite fetching, A charming cape can be made for the little girl from an old plaid cireu- lar skirt by cutting it down and shirring at t neck, attaching a linen collar and a silk cord; and the ghcket of a man’s Palm Beach suit ‘to cut down to make a summer for the little boy, Py
