SUMMER CLOTHING.
DAINTY DRESSES.
1 litre is little doubt in the mind-, of thoso I who stud} the fashions that dtcs«c- during

The very, short sleeve, for instance, cannot
be worn "out of doors dm ing the hot, paitj
of our sumiller with jiny tolnfort. Blisteicd . and stiiibinnt anns,wóf)ld soon rcsuit'if we j indulged in this úigury,of'the Engli.h and
French di cssmal;ers.-' But'the long, ginee- £
ful lines and draperies of the tunics, and the wide, easy waists of the new flocks will nil bo copier!. My illustration this week indi- cates how very pt etty some of the simplest frocks in summer stuffs will be. The drc-s was designed to be carried out in some thin white material, such as voile or marqui«ctte or silk. .Tlie trimming consists of nanow bindings in some palo colour, and a pattern of squares carried out in hemstitching or coarse machine stitchm;* in the same colour, or in white meueriseu thread. The wide sash is in white, with the ends slitehcdlind the edges bound to correspond with the rest of the dress.
