NEWEST MATERIALS OF WOOL

Summer Dresses Promise to Be Prettier Than They Have Been for Many Years Past. Among new woolen materials for tailored gowns is the accordion plaited effect which it seems no amount of pressing can destroy. “Parquet” is the name of a lovely, bolt woolen fabric that has a raised design exactly resembling an Inlaid floor. “Bigoudine,” coarse and heavy in effect, but really beautifully light, woven in crooked, fine and coarse threads, something the manner of “zig-zag," is an ideal fabric for summer tailored cos-

(tumes. The same indorsement can be 'given to a woolen - fabric, with a surface like uncut velvet, woven in cool olive green and white. With white facings and white buttons for trimmings, the refined effect of this material is easily imagined. With the same delusive effect of heaviness is a material particularly good in a deep, rich vilet, but which also appears in all other shades of the season. The woolen materials mentioned above will be used as facings for collars and revers as well as for the entire costume. ■• ■ ■■; =
