LWAYS fascinating, the print ,
story is more so than ever this
summer. The current showings of |
prints seem to have eclipsed all that
has gone before.
There’s a new elegance being ex
pressed in print frocks that you can
tell at a glance are intended for
smart dress-up occasions rather than '
for casual daytime wear. In styling
these "lovely lady” prints, designers
gave them an important look of so- ,
phisticated simplicity. The new slen
der silhouette deftly achieves a
dress-up look through animated little
peplums, flaring over narrow skirts.
The bustle-bow back, flattering neck
line treatments, and other subtle
style gestures also im part outstand
ing distinction.
Often a print is that dramatic and
stunning within itself that it Is made
up as simply as possible so as to
give all the glory to the fabric. The
gown centered in the illustration is
just such. The dramatic butterfly
print "m akes" this dress and the
fact of its utterly simple styling
shows supreme artistry on the part
of the designer.
The wide cap
sleeves serve to accentuate the small
waist, made smaller by a drawstring
at the back. The print is hand-
screened and the butterfly motifs
are simply gorgeous in their color
ing. The material is a spun rayon
and cotton woven to look like crash.
A cutout wired butterfly of the fab
ric is poised at one side of the high
neckline.
A flair for dark prints is seen in
the wide call for black backgrounds
with bright florals or other richly
colorful patterning. These modish
prints include both huge dramatic
widely spaced florals and the more
conservative small patterned types,
the latter making special appeal In
A

ing.
Ideal for dressy afternoon wear
and exquisitely refined in its lady
like styling is the youthful frock
shown to the right. It is made of one
of the now-so-voguish black back
ground prints, highlighted with mul
ti-colored motifs.
It is expertly
styled to accentuate a slender sil
houette. A pert little peplum adds
intrigue to this most flattering little
dress-up frock.
Even if one's wardrobe is not ex
tensive. it is a wise plan to keep at
least one dressy outfit on hand so as
to avoid that frantic last-minute
"what to wear" problem, when one
is unprepared for on unexpected
dress-up date.
For summertime
charm a cool dark print styled for
flattery as pictured to the left w ill
prove an ideal and treasured posses
sion. A dress of this type w ill be
welcome as an addition to any ward
robe because of its chic and charm.
One of the grand things about this
dress is that you know it w ill give

feta bows at each side of the dra
matic low-cut square neckline add a
convincing note of chic. The charm

beautifully gowned modem knows
her fashions, for the wider the brim,

Sun and Play Dress Summer Wash Frocks
Intriguingly Styled
Seldom a season, if ever, when
wash frocks have been so intriguing
ly styled as now. In making up
cottons that are lovelier than ever
this summer designers are playing
up imagination to the ’nth degree.
They have succeeded so admirably
that a seersucker dress or a ging
ham goes places as pridefully as a
silken print or modish crepe. There's
all sorts of fetching trim m ing ac
cents appearing on this season's
wash apparel, such as self-fabric
bows, embroidered pockets, and
most of all just “ oodles” of eyelet
embroidery in yokes or contrast
sleeves or frills that finish off edges
in a most flattering way. The the
ory that two lovely cottons are bet
ter than one is seen in perfectly
charming gingham or pastel cham-
bray two-piece dress. The skirt of
gingham has a jacket of beloved
eyelet. The jacket is finished off
with a bias binding of the gingham.
For final glamour little bows of self
gingham travel all the way the front
of the jacket.

Seldom can the poor fellow in

Modern life with Its hurry and worry.
Irregular habits, improper eating and
drinking—its risk of exposure and infec
tion—throws heavy strain on the work
of the kidneys. They are apt to become
over-taxed and fail to filter excess acid
and other impuritiea from the life-giving
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
headache, dizziness, getting up nights,
leg pains, swelling—feel constantly
tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs
of kidney or bladder disorder are some
times burning, scanty or too frequent
urination.
