TEA GOWNS AND SOME PRETTY VOILES.

The hotter the weather the more woman appreciates that most delightful of fashion's many good gifts, the ton gown.. Properly speaking the title gives very little indication of the becoming and smart qualities of this important item in the feminine wardrobe." A tea gown used to "be a somewhat dowdy affair, comfortable but very "far" from chic. But tea gowns to-day are things of beauty upon which experts, spend endless time and thought with the result that the finished models suggest," as you see. from the sketch to-day, a really mart frock which embodies at the same time all the comfortable qualities one requires from a gar-1 ment designed more particularly to wear during leisure hours.

** Comfort And Chic

For the frock of the picture,

a pattern of pinky beige foses against a black background is used, and fashion's rules regarding. the uneven hem-line, wide sleeve, aash panels and bolero corsage are faithfully followed.

Frinted chiffonis extensively used for tea gowns of this kind, and many of them are made on coat lines tied at one side with sash ends of the chiffon. The clever woman can vary. her toilette by wearing these chiffon tunics or coata over a different coloured foundation. A black and red chiffon model, for example, looks equally well over black or red, and has doubled flared Bounces in front only, to give the garment the modish wing" which should pharacterise every smart, dress.

Cotton Ta Qooler.

A good many woman find here that muslin or cotton is cooler even than georgette and to them the. collection of charming little" voila frocks which I found in LANE, CRAWFORD'A will be very welcome, None of these models could really be described as "tea gowns," but they have the chic and formality which distinguishes them from the ordinary summer dress and makes them quite appropriate for a smart tea party or even an informal even- ing. The material is so fine that the effect is that of georgette, and. the styles have distinction.

HEIR.

THE ARISTOCRAT OF PRAMS,

opinion to come near the Marmet, There is no baby carriage in my which has very justly been called the Rolls Royce of prams. Not only is every model scientifically con structed and sprung, but it looki good. A Marmet is not the most expensive prams you can buy but you won't find one which looks better. Another advantage is that they are very light to handle.

I am enthusiastic about Marmets. as I have used one myself-and other modela, and the beautiful smooth running, and the happiness of the small occupant have quite

PICTURESQUE

MILLINERY.

Women who appreciate picturesque effecta will be interested in the graceful scarfweil of black embroidered tulle, worn with a hat of rose-pink straw to fine that it can he rolled up without crush- ing. The trimming is of rose, black and silver lame, the brim out up abruptly to show the forehead-altogether a becoming model if not particularly shady to the eyes.

•The effect of a curly green wig in the lowest hat of the trio is given by having the glycerine feathers on this fine green summer straw hat fall close to the cheek.

They are drawn through the brim and up on to the crown, the same motive appearing on the underbrim on the opposite side. One-sided effecta in millinery are a whim of this season.

The brim of the hat sketched above on the right is in deep rose, crinoline with edging and crậun of black bakou straw. Two colours in à hat offer a useful way of accentuating the acheine of a dress or ensemble, now thas so many two-colour printed crêpe de "chines, satins, and chifons are being utilised.

white-one of these has a design convinced me that this is the make of ostrich feathers lightly etched in of pram which a proud mother white on the back and sleeves of should get for her precious son and

heir, or daughter.

There is, for example, one in ̈à pastel blue and white flowered pat- tern which has a knife pleated white jabot collar and cuffi» An- other floral pattern, has pink and blue on white, and is finished with a hem and sash of blue sad a fresh looking white vest. Two other the cost. frocks which I thought particularly smart were one in pink floral voile which is bound with a deeper pink, and a green one with large "mar bled black and white spots, which was trimmed with hem cuffs, etc., of the plain green,

WHITZAWAY, LAIDLAW's have-in troduced a new bed fashion to the Colony, in their sheets and pillow slips hemmed with colour. They are made in England af fine Egyptian cotton and have a wide hemstitched border in various pastel shades. The sheets cost only $17.50 the pair and two pillow slips are $6.50. I can imagine nothing prettier for a young girl's bed or for the nursery.

THE SIGN OF THE LANTERN, as perhaps you know, is removing after August to London. During the next two months a great opportunity is offered to get things there at very low cost; and knowing as we all do, the very charming goods on sale in this shop, I don't think (Continued a next Column),
