SUMMER WEAR.
A well-cut, narrow skirt, supplemented with tho now panel, is not only good to look at, but remarkably good to wear, says a writer in an Australian paper.

Starch has boon banished from all of these, and they fall with a softness collars never did before. The waist line, being high, means that tho tight belt is non-existent, and blouses are the lightest, easiest, and ; daintiest things imaginable. j Added to this, hats aro smaller thar tlicy were, and infinitely more comfort able, so that the well-gowned woman car face tho season fully conscious of physical ease. Never have white nnd blacli gowns been so much in favour. Practically all of them are relieved with vivit touches of colour. Sunshades, stocking; and hand bags are frcnuentlv sold tc

White Liberty silk under black laeo and white damask under linon are typical white and black gowns. White lace nililes have returned to Iheir own, and fringe is seen on countless gala frocks. The diaphanous tunic, gathered with a high waist line, and falling to the knees, is a distinct feature, while tho Mogul jacket, a gorgeous affair of Chineso embroidery, provides a model for the finest evening coats.
