Never have our American mills
turned out so many novel and attrac-
tive cotton materials as they are mak-
ing now. The demand for the best
and handsomest cotton fabrics has
been met at home, and the mills are
establishing a prestige which they ex-
pect to maintain, even when Europe
again enters the market with her
products. American-made silks have
formed the bulk of the silks used here,
and there is no good reason why we
should not produce the best of cottons
in the finest of weaves.
A pretty dress for a little girl from
two to six years old, is shown in the
picture. It is made of a strong cotton
madras, having a white ground and a
narrow blue stripe, which comes in
many color combinations. The fabric
Is so desirable and stands tubbing so
well that it is worth while to put good
work in the dresses made of it. It is
trimmed with plain blue chambray or
gingham or other strong cotton, and
with blue and white, embroidery.
The dress is in the long-waisted ef-
fect with two narrow ruffles set on to
the body. The first ruffle is piped with
the plain blue, and the second ruffle
is set on to it. A flat plait with the
stripes running crosswise extends
down the front and back to the belt
of plain blue, which is in two pieces
as shown in the picture.
A small, round collar edged with the
blue and white embroidery, and turned-
back cuffs, finished in the same wav,
complete a little dress that is- very
pleasing and costs next to nothing. In
it little wearers may venture into the
big world looking €& well dressed as
it is possible to be. The “poor little
rich girl” cannot have anything more
tasteful or prettier.
The Zouave Bolero.
The zouave bolero 1b seen on many
afternoon frocks. Often it is sleeve-
less, allowing the full transparent
sleeves of the frock beneath to strike
an alluring note of contrast. The
zouave bolero, when it forms an at-
tractive part of the afternoon frock, is
usually carried out in taffeta, often
embroidered in dull gold cordings.
