SIMPLE LINES.

Summer Outing Gowns Will Be Handsome, but Plainly Cut.

Linen and cluny lace are the fabrics exploited in this charming afternoon gown. The thrifty girl is already preparing her wardrobe for summer conquests at the seashore or in the mountains. and she will do well to note the simple lines on which this and similar new gowns are built. Laces and ribbons and frills have their places, but it is not on this season’s outing garb, which is cut on lines of severe simplicity. although it may be embroidered and trimmed with flat applications of lace. Indeed. It is said that mohairs are likely to take the place of linens for serviceable summer wear, mohair showing less quickly than linen the signs of wear and tear. Mohair does not wrinkle, dost may be easily brushed off it. and It needs less often to be sent to tbe laundress than the linen costume. Moreover, mohairs are so much prettier than they have been that they cannot fail to please. Some of tbe new mohairs look not unlike satin and are almost as stipple and easy to drape.
