Originalty is Watchword- Modern Dresses Arc Smart and Trim
WHITE IS THE PREDOMINATING COLOR
All the Simplest Affairs Have a
Certain Air of Chic
Reckieffsness
August le the vacation mouth In Paris to a greater extent than in Brooklyn of any American cily. Liter¬ ally no one of the fashionable world remains in the capital during the "dog days," and even the war scare tbat >^ has shatteied the nerves of all En / rope has not prevented the annual Exodus to seaside le.sort.s. to the hot springs and mountains. \S'ell dressed women are not wanting in the Ave¬ nue de I'Opera and the fChamps Ely see, but they are almost Invariably ia traveling dress or in the business¬ like tailor-made costumes in which women do their shopping. ,Neai, dark blue suits with spotless lingerie waists, tbe collars of which lie limply over the shoulders, and hats of mark ed simplicity, whether large or small, are the order of the day.
It may be said right here iliai the small hat is holding its own with re markable ttmaclty. It suits the short skirt better than any wide brimmed hat could possibly do, Tlu.' things to aim at in modern dres.s are smartness, U'imn«.Ks and a certain air of chic recklessness, A. brj[|iiless scrap of coarse, shiny str*w, with two thin sup pie quills, can be made to express just that spirit. Another effective small hut is a paper boat-shape wllh a Kijuash crown in dark blue or black straw and liberty, irimmed with ,i baud of plumage and one upstanding strand, A veil with a coarse mesh and a wide scroll pattern goes very well with the latter, and tho hair on lhi> left side should wave in the same line as Ihe hat.
Originality la the watt liword, and naturally the purchaser is often asked to pay for a thing not because it i.s beautiful or costly in itself, but be¬ cause It is unique. The other day an American woman was asked .'b4(i for a small straw shape with no I rimming but a quill which might have heen worth 7.''. cents, and when she jducked up the courage to porlest was in¬ formed: "Madame, it is for the shape. Tbere is not another like it in I'aris," This summer white is moro em¬ phatically the color than it has been for several yeara. There are white dresses, white hats, white shoes, white 8tockln.;;3. white gloves, white waists, white I ravats, white sashes and an infinite variety ot eii< b, Tbe general effect is very pleasing, hut white is e.vpensive: there is no retting aw.ay from that. Ii uce.l not be elaborale, bul il imiMt be spotli:;.. iind on ihai at count it is not for Uie woman who is compelled lo be economkiil. At the simplest affairs, tlie lair ses iiiii:-i be garbed in white satin ami lace or be hopelessly out of the mode, a ml and <'osttime that makes so mo(lc.-.t a showing can safely he estimated to bave cost from $tln t<i $7:", As to the creations In niiioii .ind net. enlbI¦oi(^J ery and Irish hu'e. one shudders lo think \\hat tliey cosi.

Ji word of warning to tho,.;e who ex¬ pect to adopt the up to-theminute color Theri' Is a fairly wide license in whlt<., but there are some |ieople who can make even white look dowd.\ and unattractive. Hard or shiny ma lerlals tlmt wear aud wash over and over again may be worn by young girK;. but vei.\ Uw iiiatuie w'oiumi tan al'foril to tak.. 111., ilsk 'I'lie latlei should make lln.ir choice hetwt.eii soft | whites in pearly shades, in oyslei j ninon wiib lace, a deep cream with a ' still deeper guipure, a pearly crepe de chine, satin and lace In two shades of brilliant white, and white velvet with a dull faced liheiiy, offer a scale of colors almost as different as red fiom yellow or mauve from lilac The woman of good taste need never fear for the success of her summer ward¬ robe.
Remember, too, that while shoes nnd -stockings are meant for slim feet Bud slim ankles. The woman who Is • handicapped by nature hud better be frank with herself and wear black footwear. This does uot prevent her from, wearing white dresses, so long as sh Introduces a note of black at her waist, al l)er throat or In her hat, to carry out the black and white Idea. As a last word, the white straw bat Is now much raoie stylish than the bat In taffetas or white satin. There •re also some very stylish models In flne white pallle d'ltalie, trimmed with white, black or blua wnlgs.
