There be no doubt of th popu

irrhe model shown her is built of
troadclotlt lo one of the deepest of the
cream tones, and though exceedingly
himple every one of 1U few details Is
made to count The skirt and what ap

Then this straight aide, which ia the

Length of line and plain expanses of
nurface are best calculated to produce
the successful white cloth costume

the white eewn for winter Wear has a
distinction that is not shared In com

A fad In this connection, and rather a
pretty one. is that of having the white
cloth worked in coarse embroidery, a
was done with taffeta last spring. The
colors are always erude rather than
brilliant, and the designs of the sim

idea is another in which the embroidery
is stuffed and made solid looking. It Is

There1 are so' many things to take
one's attention from the sewitig just be
fore the holidays and what appears to
bo just a few stitches to finish means
really hours of close sewing very often.
Of course, every one Is looking for
.'novelties. Now the very newest' shape
In, a. night dress case is a most handy
looking bag. The envelope shape is en
tirely out of date. The new bag is

about eight by, fourteen inches when
finished.
A dainty basket of flowers is worked
on one side of the bag. The scams are

A row of buttonhole loops is stitched
around the bag where the seams stop to
