Some hand embroidery is a dainty finish to the tigbt•fitting shirt waist sleeve which is out pointed at the wrist. Moat of the embroidery designs are large and sprawly, and are done in the same color as the material. The correct silhouette is attained where all the linea of the frock suggest ease and looseness without fullness. The prevailing long lines call into be- ing a great many panels, and these are variously finished at the edges. The princess gown, with skirt cut suffioiently short for walking, has gained considerable success, in spite of the dic- tum of dressmakers that such a gown was ungraceful. An ivory white satin may have several tunics in various pale shades of gauze, or in silver or gold tisanes, which will give to it the appearance of an entirely different gown. There is a decided tendenoy toward overeleevee, reaching just to the elbow, and continued from there to the hand by a close fitting gauntlet affair of lane and embroidery. Bunclies of artificial fruit are seen, made of satin, taffeta and velvet. They are tied to parasol handles, worn in the corsage or pinned around the hat where the veil is lopped off HOUSE OF REFUGE COMMITTEE.
