How Shall We Dress.

For fall dresses, basques, polonaises
and redingotes Ga long tight-fitting out
side garment) are still worn. Basques
are shorter-often pointed before and
behind, and very short on the hips. An
old polonaise may be modernized by
cutting off the front into basque shape,
leaving the back as it is and putting it
very full. An apron front of velvet,
brocade, or anything that will harmon
ize with the material, may be inserted.
These aprons are gathered full around
the waist, and hang long and loose, cut
at the bottom in battlements, or points
or fitted plain, and looped full and
high upon the hips. For plain skirts
to wear with plaid or figured over
dresses, deep plated flounce is best
For plain suit, skirt with a plating
of either side or box plaits-aboui
three inches deep, with narrow or broad
tucks above, is very neat. For silk, a
broad ruche, plated very full above the
hounce, is simple and dressy. Sleeves
are for the most part long and plain
Some are pufied on the shoulders, but
this style is not generally becoming; it
makes one appear high shouldered. A
bow Of many loops of narrow velvet
ribbon is worn on one or both shoul-
ders. Narrow ribbon velvet, of black
or bright colors, is worn around the
neck and tied so as to leave long loops
and ends at the left sides. 1t is used
IN rosettes for trimming hats and bon
nets and also looping overskirts.
Jersey waists, which fit to the form
like underwear, are very useful and
economical for ladies and children.
They come in black, scarlet. dark blue
and maroon colors, and any skirt can
be worn with them. Small bonnets are
made of material to match the dress.
are of velvet, and trimmed with small
fruits, flowers or feathers, with narrow
ribbon or velvet strings. They are of
the small, close shape mostly. Good
taste in material is generally marked
by simplicity of design. if plaid or
figured but of good quality Plain
colors are always preferable, and lady
with a nice black silk for best, and we'll
fitted dark flannel for the street. and
simple home dresses, with a few rib
bons and laces of nice quality for orna-
mentation, is well dressed for any oc-
casion.
Plain collars of velvet, with cuffs to
match, trimmed with white lace turned
upward, and tied with q bow and long
ends of narrow ribbon, are worn with
any dress, if the color is in harmony

The exceedingly delicate photo
graphs (colOred) on glass, which have
come lately into fashion, are reduced
by fixing paper photograph upon q
cushion-shaped glass with transparent
cement, and when it is dry rubbing
away two-thirds of the photograph with
sand-paper. The thin film left is then
rendered transparent by soaking in
melted paratfine wax, after which
transparent colors are applied, which
appear softened down when looked at
from the front. The background and
heavier portions of the picture are then
painted in body color upon the face of
another cushion-shaped piece OF glass,
which is afterward fixed behind the first
one.
