embroidered with bhae silk popples

Into which had been worked a thread

of cerise.

A simple bat effective lounging robe

of pink Telling was lined with china

silk and had a large sailor collar and

generous cuffs of black satin. Covering the line of shirring just below the

bast was a black silk cord that tied In the front and was finished with heavy tassels. . :" In the more elaborate negligees the bordered silks are happily employed, as well as the delicate flower-printed chiffons over satin or silk. An adorable confection of white silk roil had a flehu arrangement of white chiffon that was bordered with moss roses In the most delicate shades of pink and soft green. The points of the fichu reached almost to the hem in the front.

and were weighted with tassels. A girdle of green velvet with a soft bow at the side, drew in the fichu several Inches above the waist line. XrW COSSETS SHOW MODXFICAnOSS. A little shorter in the skirt, a little lower In the bast, a little more curve to the back, a greater pliability of boning there you have the main changes noticeable In the fall corset. To be sure, the lady of ample avoirdupois will have no difficulty in finding models, so long that she may not sit down with' impunity, and the lithe lady may lace herself into extra long corsets that make her look lither, but moderation In cut is the characteristic of the moderate priced corset for the woman with moderate taste. Although many styles show a lower

fag of the entire top of the corset, not a few remain high la the back to re move any possibility of the ugly roll of flesh that ta likely to be in evidence of the corset is too low in the back, : The fronts, however, are curved to follow the line of the bust; and are cut' considerably lower than the summer models. The Increasing demand of the fashionable' woman, for corset that allow her perfect freedom of movement and give her the appearance of being quite uncorsetedV has, resulted In revived Interest In the : girdle. These are now made with comparatively long, unboned skirts, and extend only two and a half Inches above the waist line. They are particularly ? well; adapted for wear with the brassieres that are gaining constantly hi favor. :

New Notes in Lingerie and Negligees

BY REIVE MANSFIELD.

Copyrighted, If 11, by X. J. Robinson.

ISTS of sheer, snowy fabric,

M

webs of fine, dainty lace,

hot through with delicate

rainbows of ribbon that's the way the lingerie coun

ters look these days. In one of the

recent novels a deserted wife is led to wonder If wearing dingy Mother

Hubbards and rick-rack on her under wear may not have been partly respon

sible for her husband's delinquency.

Surely with the attractive embroid

ered and lace-trimmed lingerie, and

the graceful, warm-hued negligees that

It ia now possible to obtain at very

moderate prices, every woman should

pe able to keep herself freshly dainty Int all times. Combination garments, in an Infinite variety o? new designs, continue to fulfill most satisfactorily the demands of the present styles for the minimum of bulk In under muslins. ' In the higher priced sets both corset-cover and drawers are filmy with rows and rows of lace and exquisite hand em broidery. Simpler, but quite as effective, are those in which the very wl3e embroidery forms the entire corset cover and the scant drawer ruffle, which are Joined by a narrow hip yoke. White crepe Is also being used (for these combinations, simply finished with a narrow edge of torchon lace. These are especially practicable for

the woman who travels, as they can be washed very easily and worn without ironing. Instead of lace beading some of the new models in lawn have a fine puffing of batiste about the neck and armboles, and for trimming on

the drawers, through which the ribbon

is to be run.

The popularity of the sailor collar for dinner gowns and street gowns

and every other sort of gown is noticeable in night gowns as well. Me

dium size collars and cuffs and tiny

ties in pale blue or pink batiste, lace-

trimmed or with a hemstitched edge,

are among the bewitching? novel trim

ming of some of the less expensive

gowns.

Yoke effects are much used, the

peasant sleeve making very simple

lines possible. All-over embroidery,

sometimes having tiny tucks at the

shoulders, sometimes Insets of Val lace,- is particularly favored. A pretty

Empire gown with the yoke formed of

rows of insertion put on in length

wise fashion had, Instead of beading

Inch slits left Where the Insertion was

joined through which the wide ribbon

was laced.

Almost every woman has discarded

the heavy wool or cotton union suit

along with rick-rack and Mother Hub-j

bard3, so that now her winter flannels differ very little from her summer

gauzes. When a male being warns her of speedy dissolution as a result of

going about in zero weather .half clad,

she hurls pneumonia statistics at him,

proving that twice as many men as

women succumb to it, and then blithe

ly goes about buying mere nothings in

the way of Italian silk lisle 1 union

suits with which to defy Jack Frost Fine-ribbed cotton or lisle garments, cut low necked and short sleeved, with the drawers reaching just below the

knee, are among the most popular styles of under garments for winter wear. These are usually formed all in one piece, and come as low as $1.00 apiece. In the Italian ilk It is possible to obtain the plain sets, knee length, for $3.75. The petticoats with the -cilk jersey tops and messaline flounces promise to be Tery well liked for wear with

the tailored suits this fall. One economical little woman made several detachable flounces of different colors that she fastened to the Jersey top by means of patent buttons, thus securing a petticoat to match her bouse and street gowns at Tery little cost Many of the silk petticoats have no bottom flounce at all, but are simply trimmed with bands. A smart black and white check one was noticed with a straight band of black silk around the bottom that was brought up In

points at each seam. It was piped with scarlet satin and had tiny buttons

of the same on the points. g

Another striking model of which the

body part was of black and white check silk had a band fully twenty inches wide of brilliant green satin that formed the bottom of the skirt. This had the appearance of being slashed almost to the knee at each seam, but a scant pleating was inserted that gave a little additional fullness to the skirt. A wide binding of the check silk finished the bottom of the skirt and was carried around the slashes. EMPIRE LINES IN NEGLIGEES. No style is quite so well adapted to the lounging robe or negligee as the Empire mode. A majority of these fascinating garments have the Empire waist, although often in combination with th sailor collar or fichu arrangement The soft silks, china or messaline, crepes and challies are the preferred materials. Accordion pleating is used a great deal for the skirts, and

nearly all the models show the kimona or peasant sleeve.

One charming robe of pale blue

satin, cut on straight coat lines, was fastened at the side with a single huge

embroidered button. The big revers turning back low from the throat were
