Pompadour ribbons of various width

also seen on princess dresses of black
silk and cloth.
Pretty cotton, merino and challie
cloths have printed borders along one
selvage that will work up neatly for
house gowns.
Boat-shaped turbans have been dis
placed by the military cap made of the
dress material, with band of fur to
match the muff.
Brilliant mohairs and lustrous aIpacas
come in all the new colors for the early
dresses in which to shop, go abroad or

Any profit in the fur trade for the sea-
son has come from small pieces, such as
cuffs, muffS, collars, vests and capes.
The English fashion of wearing fur
capes in summer will doubtless be re-
pcated next season.

GRACE OF MOVEMENT.
An Authority Tells Ladies How
They Should Walk.

Mrs. Bailey, who teaches physical
training, raised her gown displaying an
embroidered black slipper, decorated
with huge bow-a slipper not too
dainty, but very shapeIy-and pro-
ceeded to demonstrate how one should
walk.
The foot should fall lightly,n she
said to the reporter, touching first the
toe and then the heel. 1t is not unlike
the pace of race horse. The step
should be just the length of the
foot. Few women take stride
as long as their shoes. Then
they should walk in a line,
the inside of either sole striking that
line with every step. You have no
ticed how crooked the footprints of most
people are when seen Ill the snow? They
do not walk properly. There are three
things | impress in the theory of walk
ing-harmonious poise, the thigh move
ment and a STRAIGHTFORWARD direction in
stepping. To walk properly woman
must walk from the thigh. 1t should
be raised, and the knee bent. The

very easy and gradual. The reason
women get stout at the thigh is because
they don't exercise the muscles of the
leg. Fat accumuates in consequence.

THEY MARRY LATER.
The Girl Of Thirty Has Still

The Girl Of Thirty Has Still
Twenty Years of Choice.
Says the shreWdest observer of metro
politan society: New York women
marry later than any other women in
this country-not much under. thirty.
They certainly are more charming than
the buds, of whom the saying goes: In
the first season they are good to look at,
in the second to dance with. and in the
third to talk to- The New York woman
at thirty is dangerously fascinating
creature, and knows it better than any
one else. 1t is wonderful how they
wear" Contrast this with a practice of
unwiSe mothers who marry their girls
from the sehoolroom, only to have their
husbands tire of them before they fade
at thirty.

from the New York girls book. and

unSightly shoes. Polish is very cheap,
so are shoe buttons and laces. There
are few better tests of woman's taste

FOREIGN TASTE IN DRESS.
Two or Three Fine Gowns That
Indicate Its Drift.

Very handsome dresses for the opera
IN London iare in white brocade, with
wreaths of flowers embroidered in

embroidery going around the bodice and
descending crosswise to the left hip. In
each flower dewdrops Of diamo nds.

stones are mounted OH invis ible sett-
ings and can be placed anywhere bout
the dress or in the hair. Opera and
evening headdresses are small, and con-
sist of tuft of feathers, ribbon, or
small flowers on the top of the head, or
sometimes slight wreath of foliage.
A very striking opera dress recently
worn by a professional beauty was of
black velvet, cut very low, and edged
with row of sparkling jet scales. The
velvet rested against the white neck
with no intervening folds of tulle, a.
narrow Jet strap did duty as a sleeve,
and the dark hair was drawn up high
on the head against diamond crescent,
with the points turned upward.
A new accessory to the evening gown
is the ''Skye terrier" muff, which
matches the dress in color, is made of
finely plated silk gauze or crepe lisse,
which falls all about in graceful confu-
sion, and is supposed to resemble the
little dog 1T is named for.

One of the most despicable practices
that married man can be guilty OF is a
kind of coarse testing at the bondage of
the married state, and laugh at the

Dresses to Dine In.

Many of the new dressing gowns for
dinner and reception wear are made to
fasten in the back.
Broche silks, woolens, zephyrs and
ginghams come in novel shades of color
and bold combinations.
The visiting head gear for married
women is the small capote and the
tOQue, with strings or without.
Wholesale dry goods men say that
the Southern trade is increasing, and
will soon rival that of the West.
The Mackenzie tartan is so popular
that it is frequently seen, combined
with yelvetS, at teas and receptions.
Many of the new suitings brought out
for tailor gowns have fringed borders in
a contrasting color on one sewage.
The fur shoulder cape bids fair to be
as popular for spring as it was for fall
wear and is now for our mild midWin-
ter.
Spring millinery will be profusely
ornate with gold and silver and other
metallic braids, embrOideries and orna-

women even on the warmest days.

disposition and is such a philosopher
that the small worries of life have
never been known to ruffle her. The
brakes have a handsome home on
Prairie avenue, where they enter
tain great deal. Miss Drake is gen.
eral faVorite, although she is not inor-
1inately fond of society, and apparently
is quite Indifferent about cultiVating the
friendship of men. Notwithstanding
this last characteristic. however, she
has a remarkable knack OF bringing

charming men in town. She is bright,
an interested worker in the First Pres

industrial school, assists her mother in
household cares and is thoroughly prac-
tical in her tasks and occupations. In
addition, and above all, she is perfectly
devoted to her handsome and popular

and very plump, has sparkling face,
the coloring of an apple blossom and
the loveliest neck maginable-Which,
by the way, she makes the
most of in decollete gowns and
with handsome diamond necklaces. She
dresses elegantly, rather strikingly, and
entertains often and deliberately. She
has no intimate friends, but goes every
where, and is general favorite. Jolly
and lovable, she is shown much atten-
ton; does not bother her pretty head
with intellectual fads, is devoted to So
ciety, and has knack of being espe-
cially favored by the men who have fine
turnOutS.
AT the first party she attended after

evening how she liked it.
"Oh, I love it! l love it!'' she ey-
