New Blouses That Have a Color Note

practical utility bowa before conslderstlons
of prettifies and fashions.
Thi all white blouse stands laundering
more successfully tban the blouse of white
and color. It also lends Itself with a better
grace to all aorta of skirts, hats, etc., and
the woman who must count the pennle
will do welt to Mine her longing for th
dainty colored Mouses and cling to all
white models; but the chance are that
every woman who can possibly afford It
will have at least one or two of tha nW
blouses, whose white la tempered by blu or
prnk or aoft brown or rose or green.
It la only the aheer blouse with color
Introduced that la really new. Tha colored
shirtwaist of madras or linen has long
been worn and la not bo popular aa It once
was, but the colored blouae which the Pari
sians have launched this season la of sheer
est batiste or mull or lawn and aa dainty
aa French fancy can maka It.
The note of color may be In the material
Itself or In tha embroidery, and th model
ranee from the simplest of ao-ealled tai
lored walsta to tha moat elaborate of hand
embroidered blouses, but the shirtwaists
must be aa fine and dainty In their own
way aa tha mora elaborate blouse In
theirs. Coarse blouses In color lose all tha
amartneas which belongs to the chic calored
blouses of tha season and ara even much
less desirable than the coarse blouse In all
white.
The striped batistes and llnona with
white grounds atrlped In narrow Unea of
color are prime favorltea for the aeml
tallored type of blouse, and If It were not
ao difficult to find just the tight material
for these waists they would not of neces
aity mean great expense, for almost any
girl should, with the help of a good pat
tarn, ba able to maka such a waist for
herself.
Tha model most common la a simple ahlrt
waist with tucked yoke of one sort or an
other, long sleeves, front opening, front
frtlla and no collar. There Is of course
considerable Importance attaching to tha
cut, for such a waist as this needs to fit
trimly and be carefully made if It la really
to have style, and a sloppy. 111 fitting shirt
wajst Is a lamentable thing.
This season many of the ahlrt walat mak
ers are cutting their waists with separata
aids bodies Instead of cutting them in two
parts. The side body Is, of course, very
Harrow, but the presence of tha extra seam
la more than atoned for by the elimination
altered for her by aa aspect fitter at tha
shop in which she bought It, a pattern cut
from it fitted her perfectly.
Having taken off the pattern, ah r-mad
the blouse. Trouble of course, but through
that trouble she was able to make for
herself halt a dozen blouses, perfect fitting,
French In air, absolutely up-to-date In
points of sleeve and cut and finish.

of awkward and unneoeeery fullness and
the resulting trimnee. and neatnea of
effect. If on can afford had ul gene It
1 a good plan to do as on summer girl
ha done.
She went to on of th most exclusive
shop in Now York, a shop noted for it
fine French blouses, and bought a eharm
lgm shirt waist of atrlped batlst out on the
most approved Unea. Sh paid a rather
absurdly high price for this model but ha
made up for that by securing half a dosen
other at prloea aa absurdly low; tor tho
first thing h did with her Frenoh blouse
was to rip It carefully to plecea.
Having ripped It, aha out an exact pattern
from It. Aa th blouse bad been carefully
lew tho elbow, so that it narrow to cuff
width and may be joined to th cuff with
out much, if any, shirring. This shaping
Is accomplished by am all tuck funning up
the sleeve from the cuff top.
Some of the more extreme waist are
mod Ilk a man'a shirt sleeve with no ful
ness at the shoulder, but this 1 not gener
ally becoming. Th cuff may be merely a
wristband or a deeper cuff fitting rather
closely and tuoked to matoh the blouae
fronts. Sometimes this deeper ouff is
headed by a tiny upstanding frill harmonis
ing with front frills; and often the ouff t
a Tat, turnback affair, dgd all round by
a little f rill.
Th wide, stiff ahlrt ouff Is no longer seen
sav occasionally upon tieavier tailored
waists, and the finish at the wrist should
be of th daintiest character, little pearl
buttons and loops or tiny button hole being
used to fit the cuff snugly.
Front frills vary from Utle frill running
down each side of a central plait to wide
single frill of jabot character. On the
colored blouse such jabot are often Of fine
white atuff with narrow hem or button
holed edge of th color; and Indeed there
are numerous blouses whose sole touch of
color appear in such frill border and cuff
borders.
An embroidered bond of color running
down th oentar front may have double
plaited frill on on side only, In th
net model pictured among th sketches, and
a single trill On one aide la also used. In
the cose of the net blouse plaited frills
finish collar and cuffs, and In lingerie
blouses, as well aa in those of net, a
plaited frill tailing over the hand and
finishing th high close-fitting collu- is
often used, th Idea being eminently
Frenoh, but not unfailingly becoming.

Varied Views and Activities of Women
LTHOUQH there is now n sur-

former executives of the nation.
The three widows of ex-presidents are
Mrs. James A. Garfield, Mrs. Benjamin
Harrison and Mrs. Qrover Cleveland. It
lias nearly always been the case that the
widows of presidents have outnumbered
former holders of the office. The strain
of caring for the natlon'a affairs seems
to bear heavily on Incumbents of the chief
magistracy and It is rare Indeed to have
had more than two ex-presidents living at
the same time.
Mrs. Garfield has long survived her hus
band, who has now been dead almost twenty-seven
years, relates the Brooklyn Eagle.
Since his death she has lived to see her
on, James Rudolph Garfield, steadily ad
vance to a place of prominence In the na
tion's councils until now he has become a
member of the president's cabinet. In View
of his youth he has at least a right to
hope that history of the Adams family
might be duplicated and the son of a pres
ident go to the Whit House. Particularly
has Mr. Garfield a right to nurse this
dream in view of the fact that he Comes
from Ohio, which has usurped th on time
place of Virginia aa a produoer of chief
executives.

The time you spend reading this book you spend touring1 Europe In a 40 h. p.
motor car with an experienced and particularly observing- and illuminating
traveler as your guide. It is a trip worth taking. You go through romantic
Normandy, picturesque Brittany, and the glorious Chateau region of
France, see merry England, the storied lakes of Scotland, the Emerald Isle
and seldom-visited 'Wales. And there is a chapter of extremely useful Infor
mation for motorists going abroad information usually acquired at a high price.
Of double interest to everyone who rides in a motor car and
next to necessary to every motorist who hopes to go abroad.
It takes you to places the ordinary traveler rarely touches.
