FOR DRESS EMBELLISHMENT
Some of the Tfclnara that Con trl bate
Style in Thla Season's
Gowns. '
While all white cottons, linens, etc., are
modish and popular, there Is this season a
stronger leaning than usual toward colored
effects In such materials and merchants
report a successful sale of high-class cot
tons and linens in colors. The demand Is
perhaps a direct result of the supply, fur
manufacturers have turned out phenom
enally attractive lines of colored silk and
cotton mixtures, mercerized cottons In
color, tinted batistes, mulls and Swisses,
colored linens, printed organdies, muslins,
etc
Linens In coral pink, soft rose or blue
or green, buff or lavender, are exceedingly
popular and are trimmed In self-color em
broidery, with relieving white In lingerie
and laoe near the face, or are embroidered
and trimmed In white. Innumerable varia
tions of the Jumper and gulmpe Idea are
worked out In these colored linens, and
coat and skirt costumes, either fancy or
severely tailored, are also very smart.
Heavy oluny or filet or Irish lace trims
many of the handsomer linen frocks, and,
by the way, the dyers who cater to the
smart trade now advertise the redylng or
dipping of colored linen frocks which have
faded or changed color In wearing or laun
dering. French pique la fashionable for ooat and
skirt frocks and separate skirls, but Is used
In white more often than in color. The
separate waistcoat of white pique, button
ing with gold buttona and cut very low to
show a frilled blouse of sheerest white
batiste or llnon. Is much worn by Parisians
In association with the tailored street frock
of wool or of heavy tussor. Waistcoats In
striped linen, blue and white, rose and
white, brown and white, etc., are also fan
cied. Fichus of all kinds have won Parisian
favor and coquettish effeota are obtained
with soft silken fichus of color contrasting
with the frock and worn folded low over
the shoulders, with the ends tucked Into
waistcoat or girdle. This Is a fad which
..uuira. aaiiuui maui axtisUo handling, aa
do all of the draped scarf effects, which
are apparently to be extremely modish
this summer.
TWO SMART TUSSOR MODELS
Material Adaptable for all Sorts
Dressy and Trottlna;
Frocks.
r
Tussor Is not confined to the sphere of
the motor cost, but Is one of the favorite
materials of the French dressmaker and j
used for frocks of all sorts from the
simplest morning frock or trotting costume
TUSSORE AND FILET NET.
to the most elaborate of visiting gowns or
casino gowns. When used for frocks of the
latter type It Is likely to be loaded with'
hand embroidery In self-tone which lifts It
out of the reach of the woman of moderate
dress allowance, but there are some charm
ing dressy French models In tussor which
do not call lor this extravagant amount of
handwork. Two such models are Included
among tho cuts.
One, a model brought over by several of
New York's most exclusive Importers, owes
Its cachet to the clever fashion In which
the material is used for self-trimming. The
Interlacing bands on the front and ' back
of the bodice are effectively handled and
the openwork trimming worked out in
TUSSORE.
bands of the tussor and a very little hand
stltchery Is original and successful with
out being dlscouraglngly complicated.
The second model Is even more simple
a tussor trimmed with fllet net dyed to
match the silk and set In with narrow
openwork or crochet insertion also dyed to
the color of the silk. This Irish velnlng or
Insertion Is, by tho way, greatly In demand,
not only for sheer lingerie frocks and
blouses, but also for silks and voiles, etc.,
being used to Join seams, set In other laces
or trimmings and. Indeed, filling many of
the purposes for which embroidery velnlng
haa always been Used on lingerie garments.
THIS SEASON'S MOTOR COATS
Touring; Equipment Necessary
Every Well Dressed Woman
This Year.
for
1 All the fashionable world motors nowa
days. Also a good deal of the world with
no pretension to fashion enjoys many a run
In a motor. Why have a husband or a
friend who Is a professional chauffeur If
there are no perqulslttes to be gained?
And so there are few women, whether
of high social standing or not, who do not
feel the necessity of providing themselves
with some sort of costume appropriate
and comfortable for motor wear. Luckily
there Is motor apparel to be had at all
prlcca; and a motor coat wisely selected
may be made to do duty for many occasions
that have nothing whatever to do with a
motor.
A dust, coat Is a valuable possession In
summer, whether one rides in motor car,
train carriage or trolley car. and as haa
been Said a dust coat may be bought for
comparatively little money though one
may spend as much aa one chooses upon
such an Item of one's wardrobe.
Perhaps ths most practical all around
dust coat of the inexpensive sort Is the one
made of .mohair or slclllenne. The coat
of silk rubber haa ths advantage of being
rainproof, but In the better grades It la
rather expensive and for ordinary summer
wear It la a trifle warm and. in aplte of the
best efforts of the manufacturers doea re
tain a slight odor of rubber.
. Pongee Is used for some stylish looking
and Inexpensive coats, but It Is prone to
look mussy and stringy unless In the heavier
and expensive varieties, such as French
tussor. But a good mohair has much to
recommend it. .
It tailors well, keeps Its shape, sheds the
dust and la available In almost any color
desired. As a rule, a wetting will make It
pucker along the seama and that Is. of
course, a disadvantage, but tailors insist
that they ran prevent thla catastrophe by
proper sponging and pressing.
Some exceedingly good looking motor
J coats are made In mohair of good quality
ana or a eon medium gray snot with white,
giving a resultant tone very soft and cool
though dark and neutral enough for servtcs.
The coats were plainly but smartly cut and
tailored and devoid of trimming save for
stitching and Dig white pearl buttona.
Other models have collar and cuff fac
ings of white leather which may be readily
cleaned. In the soft light shades of brown
so popular this season the mohair coat la
attractive, and here again a touch of white
feather la effective, tbough collar and cuffs
of darker brown are often preferred.
A black and white checked mohair trim
med in black or with a very slight dash of
vivid red or green Is good. A very stun
ning French coat Is made of mohair In
rather wide strip of Copenhsgen blue
and gray, trimmed In black and white.
Striped coats are numerous among the
models In tweed, cheviot and other light
weight woolens and are noticeable, too,
among the handsome models In silk rubber.
Cooler Coats.
In pongee and In linen there are attrac
tive models galore, ranging from the
severest and most practical of plain tailored
coats to the most elaborate of braided and
embroidered garments, suitable only for
the mildest mannered motoring Imaginable.
These latter coats are merely to be thrown
on over perishable summer frocks when a
woman Is on dress parade In her car rather
than
Intent upon serious motoring, and
of them are delectable garments,
many
ample, enveloping, more easily cleansing
and sturdier than the frocks they protect,
yet highly decorative and ornate.
The heavily braided or embroidered
chasuble cloak of heavy hand spun linen,
and which promises to be one of the Paris
tan's fads, Is designed for such motor wear,
and It la said that these garments may be
handed over to a competent laundress In
stead of to the cleanser.
Among the Pongees, the new heavy
French tussor Is the chosen variety for the
smart motor coat and, though expensive,
it gives much more satisfactory service
thai any ordinary pongee or even the bet
ter class of shantungs and rajahs, to say
nothing of the fact that It looks much
handsomer at the start.
The linen coat, especially In the soft hard
woven linen, which repays the extra money
spent tor It, both in appearance and In
wear, Is satisfactory dust coat for a hot
day, but Is a comfort only when It may
really be put Into the tub and so kept fresh
and Immaculate. This Is, of course, only
possible when the coat Is cut and made
with an eye to such treatment and Is care
fully shrunk before being made up.
EYEBROWS
AND
EYELASHES
Both Caa Be Mark Improved by Little
Care and Training;.
The eyebrows and lashes are great ad
ditions to the beauty of the face. They are
for the protection of the eyes, especially the
lashes. When these are thin and strag
gling or do not grow properly the eyes will
become Inflamed If an unhealthy condition
of the lds has not already occasioned the
trouble; weak, strained eyes often cause
thin and scanty lashes. Sometimes the eye
lashes, by growing Inward, act as a foreign
body and keep up a constant Irritation of
the eye. This easily can be detected by
pulling down the lower lid and looking at
the lashes to see the state In which they
are growing. They should be on a regular
line, evenly distributed, turning outward
and downward, with a gentle curve on the
lower lid and outward and upward on the
upper. The longer and silkier and thicker
they are the better. If the line Is not
straight and the direction of a lash here
and there Is faulty, try to straighten them
by means of small tweesers. Jf the direc
tion cannot be remedied and certain hairs
sweep the eyeball every time the lids cover
the eyes In winking, these at once should
be pulled out. It Is not difficult to do It
oneself.
Styes are due to the Irritation of the hnlr
follicle out of which an eyellsh springs.
They should be opened as soon as pus Is
found, for they will not get well as long
as the pus remains. They will not occur un-
less the lids become Inflamed. To promote
the growth of the eyelashes apply vase
line to the roots. For tho Inflammation of
the follicles and scallness add to the vase
line fifteen grains of precipitated sulphur
or fifteen grains of yellow oxide of mercury
to the ounce of vaseline. In applying either
ftf these ointments It Is well to warm It a
little, as It will not then be so sticky. Trim
ming the eyelashes once In two or three
months Is said to be beneficial In promot-
Ing their growth and thickening them. This
Is done .with a pair of curved scissors. Tt
can be done by oneself. Only the tips
should be clipped, and thla should be done
evenly.
