FRESHENING UP OLD GOWN

little Touches That Will Give New Appearance to Garment One : . le Tired Of. Every woman has a serge or dark Silk dress in her wardrobe for coos days. Before the summer is half over' she feels that she is tired of it and it looks a bit shabby. For such ’ people let me suggest buying a set of

the new collar and cuffs made of white | dull kid with deep border in dull black leather. They have just appeared the laßt few days. The collar is the ' round Dutch shape, about three and a half or four inches deep, with inchwide hem of the black. This Is joined to the white part by means of cat stitching in coarse black thread, which gives it a crude but nobby effect. The plainness of the whole thing Is relieved by tiny straps of the white leather which fasten to small gun metal- buckles. The cuffs match exactly and are about five Inches wide. This set worn with a clinging black charmeuse gown, but In perfectly plain qjralght lines would, as you can easily imagine, set it off most completely. « f
