Small Women, 16 and 18 years.

(THAT CAN BE GATHERED AT THE LOWER
EDGE AND FINISHED WITH FRILL OR
LEFT PLAIN.
' Small women and young girls are sure
to welcome this design. It is essen
tially youthful in its lines and effect, it
is in the very height of style, it is adapted
to a very generous variety of materials and
it requires so little b.bor that it need not
daunt the busiest woman. The blouse
is in peasant style, all in one piece drawn
up at the neck and front edges, and the
one-piece tunic is joined to it. The akirt
is separate and attached to a belt. The
trock ot loulard illustrated is very attract
ive and very useful but it is easy to think
of such a model made from any one of the
fashionable silks or a pretty cotton ma
terial, or again, the blouse and tunic
could be of one color and the skirt of an
other, as plain or striped color over white
jCr any effect of the sort. As shown here,
the frill of the tunic is simply hemmed
but a pretty effect can be obtained by
lining all the frills with- a contrasting
color.

Require yds. of material 27, 5 yds. 36,
I3JS yds. 44 in. wide. The width of the
