Hut there are ,10iv many dressmakers who have been clever enough to realize that there is money to bs nialc in catering to the schoolgirl. aJid these dressmakers arc kept constantly busy lurn'n" out smart and attiactivc frocks .it quite reasonable prices. The s(.liool?irl requires many frocks to look ircll dressed, and it is far more practical to provide her with enough to injure her alffjrs looking neat and trim rather than toproiidc two or three expensive, elaborate frock" that to begin with arc so distiuc-fue distiuc-fue tbac they arc remembered from one season to another. For the .school th. simpler the frock the smarter it is. The coat and skirt costume, with which separate sepa-rate waists can be worn, is the most practical, prac-tical, for a fresh waist will make the en-fire, en-fire, costume look fresh and new, but at the moment the one piece frock is so be-loird be-loird by young and old that the schoolgirl feels she lb not being fairly treated if she, too, caunot have her frocks made after this model It is an easy task to have the waist made separate from the skirt, for the belt hides the joining and in this way the separate waist can bo worn if desired. For the bpring and mi tumor these one piece frocks are certainly the smartest and will be mode in light weight cloth, in pongee and in linen. The newest are extremely ex-tremely simple in design and the skirts ate quite a little wider.

There is quite a dif- ference of opinion as regards the best j time to make up the summer wardrobe. !; Hilling well ahead of time there arc the fr newest patterns to choose from and also y there arc "bargain," but the woman .who ,j - waits until hue in tho-season certainly t linds the very latest novelties and of leu f 1 i A Long Shoulder Line is 'Used on the New "Dresses rare treasures. But the scboolgirl likes to have the fliiestiou of clothes settled well in advance, and consequently the "well trained motbers are now to be noticed hard at work choosiug .materials and models for tho fascinating frocks that arc to he made in preparation for the Easter niiil summer-holidays. Embroideries are to be fashionable, i Linen Frock with Soutache Braid but too much embroidery, especially If not of the most expensive order, is not smart. -There are now in all tbc sbops most attractive robes in various materials thut combine extremely well with plain, and these robes arc good investments in most instances; the simpler, the desigu the snlurlcr-hxmc,ver.. .A-liuieh oLhlack or some bright contrasting color is one of the marked features of the lat6st fashions, and even on the frocks for quite small girls I he black belt or bow a I the throat is to be noticed. A most attractive at-tractive fiock, made of pale blue flouncing over plain blue, has -a wide sash of black silk that goes over one shoulder, then goes under the ovcrskirt and all of the hem of the lower skirl, finished with a wide fringe. Flouncing is. in great demand for all summer frocks, and often can be ued to better advantage even than the pattern pat-tern robes, for it is wiilo enough to form the ovcrskirt or tur.ic. The black sash is in decidedly sharp contrast, but is extremely smart. If so desired the sadi can be a darker blue or pink, but the note of black is the newest. There arc some most attractive frocks made of cotton voile the model of which is equally good for other and more expensive ex-pensive materials. The double skirt is !madc with a gathered .flounce, over which lis the scant tunic, but not scant enough 'to have any ugly, too ligbt cCfect. The i lower part of the waist is full, but, the upper part fits smooth and plain, almost like a deep collar, aud has the long shoulder shoul-der effect. A band of embroidery around 'the ovcrskirt aud belt of the yaiuc cm-I cm-I broidery and bands around tbe sleeve and a "bib" of the embroidery compose the trimming, with the exception of a soft lie of black taffeta There is a transparent net collar, for the black silk against the throat would be top unbecoming. This .siine model is effective and smart in serge or pongee, but there is really no material in vliich it cannot be copied satisfactorily. Combining plain and figured materials 'in the one frock Ss not often a satisfactory piece of work for young girls' frocks, but lateJy there have been exhibited two or three attractive models of this description that can be made in glngliam, foulard. J linen or any of the summer fabrics The prevent fashions are extremely well suited j to tin, plar. of two materials, for the lower 1 skirt can be of the plain and tho upper of the figured, or vice versa A root becom- 'iing aud effective model is of rose pink ' SHK iviuii rrocK wiiu DjacK. viiuiun Sash and Artificial Rose Garlands Frock Around Neck and on Skirt for the W ' pfl L Vv ' I I I Plain and Figured Linen or Gingham ginghaui. the deep shade of rose, with whifo and rose polka dot. The waiM and upper part of the skirt are of the polka dot pattern, 'the lower of the plain, but there is a dtep yoke or plastron of iho plain and a No cuffs of the plain. A black satin belt, black tic and black satin buttons but-tons add an original and distinctive touch that would j tlrnct attention to a frock i I that was not nearly so smart. It is a jcharniingly girlisli fiock, and, while originally orig-inally mado in gingham, is equally smart I and attractive in foulard, while one copy of cashmere and another of oilc have . beim turned out most satisfactorily.

Picturerfquc clylcs arc more than ever fas-hionable and picturesque fashions are roost becoming 'to ther-vcry young. For-, tunately the determined effort that has been made lately to "tone down" the conspicuous con-spicuous note in dress for the youug girl has had some effect and picturesque is no longer a synonymous term with conspicuous. conspic-uous. Like the most attractive of old prints are many of the new styles, to be made up in marquisette or flowered muslin mus-lin or in taffeta silk, for again it must be stated that silk is now included in the 'list of materials that the young girl not IH iyct out 'permitted.
