NE of the many lovely dance frocks made of taffeta silk is pic tured here, and If ever there was a more alluring invitation to the dance than It succeeds In expressing, we -will have to look to music to make it. For party dresses, for dancing, nothing seems to have quite the charm of taffeta silk, and it may be rightly de scribed as a joyous fabric in its light colors. ' In black and dark colors It makes afternoon and dinner frocks un pretentious, but surpassingly charm ing. The youthful and pretty model shown in the picture , employs apricot colored taffeta with a frivolous short overdress of chiffon in the same color. This Is made of overlapping flounces having scalloped edges bound with bias folds of the taffeta. The underskirt ls moderately wide, and ankle length, the simple bodice draped in a "V" shaped neck opening at the back and front,' and 'filled In with a chemisette of fine lace. The sleeves are merely two flounces of the scalloped chiffon. Many pretty rivals of this dress brighten the display room of the shop that presents it. There ls one in pink taffeta having a plain . "baby" waist with straps of taffeta over the shoul ders and a full round skirt. About the bottom of the bodice there is a narrow frill formed by gathering the skirt to the bodice in this way, and nestling in this frill, across the front, there are small, half -blown garden roses set in a row .Over them and over the bodice there Is a veiling of malines scantily draped. It Is hardly notice able, but adds a beautiful touch like a rosy mist over silk and flowers. It is like the taffeta in color. Imagine, in the company of these two frocks, a third of apple green taffeta, with a low bodice and full skirt gathered on a small wire at the hips to make it stand out from the figure. It has a pretty fichu of malines to match, and there are -motifs made of light green glass beads scattered about on the skirt. good and liked by all the family may ing suggestions; Lamb Broth with rile.
