Negligees are among the fascinating garments of .vhich 

 no woman ever had too big a supply. Each new one and 

 each pretty one is sure to find its place. This charming 

 little model represents so little labor that it easily can be 

 added to the list. It consists of just the front and back 

 portions that are tucked prettily at the shoulders but is 

 rendered entirely distinctive and novel by the arrange- 

 ment of the wide frill. The little cap which accompanies 

 it, is dainty and becoming. In the picture, both the 

 jacket and the cap are made of fine white batiste with 

 trimming of embroidery, but you could copy this model in 

 crepe de chine or in georgette crepe, in a flowered batiste 

 O! in a fine cotton voile, in a soft tub silk or an any 

 similar material.

 material 27 inches wide, 1 1-4 yards 36 or 44 with 4 1-2 

 yards of lace or embroidery for the frill. For the cap 

 will be required, 5-8 of a yard of banding 4 inches wide 

 and 1-2 vard of lace 2 inches wide for the neck frill.

From a Stamford Poet. 

 Mr. Marvin R. Doty, the well-known 

 humorist and reciter of Stamford, has 

 caught the spirit of "poetry." He looks 

 toward Arcadian territory and locates 

 his scene in Sound Beach. This is the 

 way in which the muse appeals to him : 



A HORNET, one day at Sound Beach. 



Was sunning himself on a peach, 

 When along came a picker 

 Who dropped the fruit quicker 



Than scat, and then uttered a screech.
