An especially Eattractive one is made of a gray pop- ‘lin or sicilienne, illustrated on cover. [The front is an apron style with the attached flounce and back of gray taf- l fata silk cover the entire length with ; narrow ruffles of ribbon put on at equ- al distances apart. 0n the apron front is a design of cut-work in cloth of a slightly darker shade than the poplin. The body of the waist is of poplin to match the apron, and the sleeves are of the same. The front of the waist is particularly graceful. It has some- thing of a blouse effect, cut Open to show a vest of white lace over white satin, and is trimmed round the edge with applique to match the trimming on the skirt. The sleeves are small, and have no trimming whatever. The collar is a plain high band with three little ruchings of black satin ribbon. “Might I have my new slate if I’ll promise not to draw anything but meet- ing-houses ?"
