with a tiny, bebe waist gathered into
a belt just under the bust, and ribbon
straps across the shoulders to hold
up the little gathered waist. Attach
a tunic of pale blue chiffon to this
slip, about at the hips, and drop over
it a second tunic from the high belt.
Slash each tunic up at the front in a
deep point and edge both tunics with
lace insertion. The upper tunic will
fall below the hip in front and almost
to the knees at back: the lower tunic
will hang at the back; but slope up to
reveal the feet in front. Tie a sash
of peach-pink satin ribbon against the
lace-edged upper tunic where the apex
of the slope comes in front. Now
make a kimono-shaped coat of nettop
lace with the border at the bottom.
This is to fall six Inches below the
satin belt over the upper tunic of blue
chiffon. Edge the V-neck in the lace
tunic or coat with lace insertion and
trim the very shost sleeves In the
same way. Several little bows of pink
ribbon will make the lace tunic gay

Cheap Dust Caps.
There is no excuse for getting the
hair dusty. For dust caps can be
bought, in pretty prints in pink or
violet and white, for 12 cents each.
These are really preity caps, with
an elastic to keep them snug at the
back, and a standing ruchelike frill
about the face. They are useful not
only for sweeping and dusting, but for
cooking.
They keep any possible dust from
the hair safely out of the way and
they also keep the odors of cooking
from entering the halr-where they
would cling tenaciously. ;
Buttonhole Hint.
In making buttonholes in soft mus
lin it is a very good idea to rub a lit
tle paste, made of flour and water, on
the wrong side. This will give a firm
surface to work upon and obviates the
possibility of cutting a buttonhole too
large. Of course, the paste will not
discolor the fabric.
