I I MAV 16, 1916. Combination of A little silk goes a long way when It Is ruffled four times about a full skirt of crepe or chifTon. The combination is a favorite which a<-hieve8 new triumphs in this elegant afternoon frock. It has several small peculiarities that give it a flavor entirely out of the ordinary. One of them is evident in the bodice, which looks like a coatee of silk with drop shoulders, and another appears in the fullness of the corded ruffles and the way in which they are set on in two groups. Retwoen these groups, hardly discern ible in the picture, there is an added decoration. How-knot motifs of narrow black lace insertion are set to the underside of the chiffon, since faahlon refuses to countenanoe a la' k of ornament where there is space to rarry It. Tlio coatee, or bodice, has a Vshaped neck and fastens to one side in double-breasted effect. Its peplum is a mere plaited frill at the sides and hack headed by a narrow belt of the ailk which does not extend across the front. There are four email prettily decorated buttons of glass at the front. The sleeves of chiffon are long full puffa that reach below the elbow find they are aet Into a wide flaring -uff finished with a ruche. It will be noticed that they are shaped to bag ?Ter the elbow and that the cuff Is VH AT A MCKKI/S WORTH OF ELKCTIIMTV WIIJ< OO The Rutland (Vt.)

The frock is simple hut original, showing an ingenious S' handling of the modes. It presents f'< many advantages to the woman who may wish to remodel a dress made of a thin material, as voile, organdie or (. marquisette The small coatee of taf- m feta and the taffe ta ruffles will go well (0 with these and with heavier materials. ?r l or the finer lace ftouncings may be I). | used for the skirt. Ruches of taffeta frayed out at the ' I edges are used on many new models 11 j in gowns and eoats and on negligees.
