SILK AND VÕILE.

Lane, Crawford's are showing s delightful collection of summer frocks for day and evening wear. I told you something about their evening frocks last week and to-day I want to concentrate on those for day time.

Certainly Madame la Mode was in a very kindly mood when she de- signed our summer frocks this year.. The variety in style seems endless, and yet when you look more closely it is not the silhouette which varies so much as the numerous details on which chic and refinement depend

With a wide choice of style there is also a wide choice of material.
