NOW that the warm weather has be
gun in earnest, the "tub" frock Is
coming into its own, and dainty
frocks of washable materials, in pleasing
variety of color, fabric and design, are
seen in Increasing numbers on the streets
and about the green lawns and wide ver
andas of Portland's rose-bowered homes.
The new tub frocks, whllo adhering,
as a general rule, to the plaited Bklrt
mode, and the simpler styles of waist or
bodice, are none the less dainty for the
fact, and are made attractive and becom
ing by trimmings of fine lace or em
broidery, and by the prevailing mode of
the ruche finish at the neck a dressy
little detail that quickly found favor with
H types of femininity, for the reason
that its. softening effect renders it uni
versally becoming.
A few of the many attractive designs
for tub frocks are shown in the accom
panying pictures, the selection covering
the scope from the practical, durable
shopping or market dress of gingham to
the dainty, delicate and lace-trimmed
party gown of elaborate pattern.
A tub frock of the latter variety 1b
shown in picture No. 1. While "sweet
simplicity," of the roost charming and
alluring type, is the keynote to this
dainty party or afternoon dress, the word
"simplicity" has little application to its
quantity of expensive detail. Hundreds
of yards of the finest lace and insertion
have been employed to gain that exqui
site daintiness and transparency which
produces the effect of charming "sim
plicity." The hip plaits of the prevailing mode
are augmented in the skirt of this frock
by a deep ruffle with three horizontal
rows and a double flouncing of the finest
Valenciennes; three horizontal rows of
the lace are placed Just above the ruffle,
and fiounclngs in the semi-circular design
at the hip line add further to the elabor
ateness and attractiveness of this pretty
Bkirt. The same idea is carried out in
the waist, which is made to open down
the back, and with the "Dutch" neck,
finished with soft frills of the lace. The
short sleeves, finished with narrow, lace
edged cuff, are prettily trimmed with
tiny, tucks in horizontal rows, as is also
the body of the waist, and the shoulder
line is broadened and the dressiness of
the gown added to by epaulets of the
tucked material, with lace and Insertion
transparencies, and a full frill edging.
No. 2 shows a simple little market
ing frock of black and white percale,
with pipings of red and cloth-covered
buttons. 'A. small "dickey" of dainty
tucked muslin, with a bow tie and
lace-frilled collar, add a dressy and
attractive touch to this practical util
ity frock, which tubs easily and sim
ply. A cool and comfortable negligee
suit is shown in picture No. 4. The
dress is made of a soft wash fabric
in tan color, with dots of brown, and
brown is used In the binding of the
low, turned-down collar and around
the bottom of the skirt. The sleeves
are short and finished with soft
turned-back cuffs, bound In brown. A
checked or polkadot tie of brown and
tan completes the costume.
Another variety of the tub frock Is
shown in No. 3. which is in the
"jumper" pattern, in pale blue wool
batiste, a fabric that tubs easily, re
quires no troublesome process of
starching and holds .its shape well.
Worn with a dainty white waist, this
"Jumper" costume is most attractive,
and is very practical, in addition- to
the charm of daintiness.
No. S shows a simple pattern for
house or out-of-doors wear, and one
that is popular with the woman who
does her own sewing and is pressed
for time. The skirt is simply made,
following the plaited mode, with diag
onal bands around the bottom, which
are very effective as a trimming, par
ticularly If the fabric Is striped or
checked. A frill of soft lace at the
neck and cuffs, with a band of pretty
embroidery down the front and around
the collar, finishes this costume.
The tub skirt, for wear with separ
ate waists, comes in a .wide variety of
materials this season duck, percale
batiste and novelty goods. In white
and all the popular colors are ' being
offered In the shops. The plaited de
sign, or the gored pattern, with horl
Eontal bands or folds. Is adhered to
In these garments also.

Moon Will Hide Son's
Face Today
Center of Orb Will Be Obscured
Early This Mornins, When An
nular Eclipse W1U Occur.
A IX. eyes behold! Behold the sun, in
russet mantle clad, climb over the
eastern hills and see what happens.
And Portland wants to do this behold
ing early today, for promptly at 6:12
o'clock this morning the great orb of
day is scheduled, according to the alma
nac, astronomers and near-astronomers,
to go into its annular eclipse and re
main in that condition until 7:55 A. M.
An annular eclipse, however, for the
elucidation of those who may imagine
it is a yearly stunt of the source of
light, occurs when the moon, at the mid
dle of the eclipse, conceals the central
part of the sun's disk, leaving a com
plete ring of light around the border.
This eclipse, which Is to appear today.
Is one of three for the year 1908. Al!
three of these eclipses this year are of
the sun. The one today will be visible
In the United States, Canada. Mexico.
Central America and the northern por
tion of South America.
The path of this annular eclipso passes
over or very near the City of Mexico.
Tampa, Fla., and the Bermuda Islands.
It then crosses the Atlantic Ocean and
terminates in latitude 10 deprees north
and longitude 10 degrees west, in West
ern Africa.
The duration of the entire eclipse is 6
hours 1.3 minutes, and of the annular
eclipse 3 hours and 50 minutes, during
which latter period it traverses 12S de
grees 48.8 minutes of longitude
The official date of the beginning and
ending of the eclipse In Portlund is 6:13
to 7:5? A. M.. June 28.
