establishment, is made into coats, redin-
gotes and dresses. Muny of the latter
are pretty and appropriately finished
with band OF velvet or fur, the French
fashion is to place above the band q
wider design in passamenterie. Good
Limerick lace has superseded mechlin
and duchess. A recent bridal dress was
of white satin, generously trimmed with
the finest of Limerick. The trousseau
tea gowns were likewise finished at neck
and wrist. Now who shall say that
| beauty and bounty are not handmaidens
Despite all that has been written about
bright colors prevailing this season f.,
! black certainly dominates. Some cling
| TO this color in underwear, but since the
J rousseau of the German princess is OF
/ the purest, finest linen, there IS reason
for assuming the rage for black next TO
the skin will subside. Black stockings
| are not down. This does not allude TO
any OF suitable gathering, but 10 their
market value. n sentiment that ia veri-
| fed by statement from makers that
they have orders for mouths ahead.
| In The matter OF wraps, while capes,
mautles aud jackets are worn. the old
/ newmarket comes to us in revised and
| improved form, somewhat fanciful at
| times. Take, for Instance, one OF coarse
! diagonal fOule, in steel blue, hemiued
round the bottom with black ostrich
feathers, with the same sewn into the
seam round the hips. There is II bib of
the same on the bodice part, also ostrich
feather edge on the sleeves. Another
fancy wrap, which is more dolman than
any other shape, is gathered on the
shoulders and then allowed 10 fiow in

were big puifs OF silk, while the lining
was pink merveileux. Pink aud drab
frils adorned the front, and edged
hood that was made in one piece with
the back.
Ostrich feathers enter into all the trim
ming Of many garments. The following
is n description of q dress which gained
no gid of a :miration at recent London
rec4 ptIon. 1t was black merveilleux
cu4 waist and skirt. The foot of the
skirt was edged with black ostrich tips;
ruche of same passed round the neck
and down the front. fan of same, set
with jewelrd sticks, aud a pointed bonnet
of tips completed this most striking cos
tune.
Said mother give us a few notes
about children 8 dress, boys and girls.
and heedful of her request the following
is presented:
For children thick soft cloths are Sc
lected for their long coats in French
gray, Venetian red and cadet clue. OF
toman silk, cashmere, ladies cloth,
tufted plaid and striped materials are all
used. Very large white or smoked pearl
buttons are used on these garments.
Black astrachan, Chinese lamb and
moulflon fur will be used on their heavy
winter cloaks. Refer jackets of blue
cloth and chiEchilIa or chiuchllu cloth
entire will be WON by boys III kilt skirts.
For a little girl dark green velvet
coat, with surah front, is trimmed with
.ght gray marabout. Ottoman silks for
wee ones are trimmed with velvet. The |
one piece design with a vatican back is |
still in style. The piaits of boys kits |
should always turn toward the center of |
back, with the Lox plat i'll front held |
down by bone buttons. These are made |
of any of the bright Scotch plaids, with |
blue and green being II fuvorIte combi-
nation. With these kills should be worn
Il fitted jacket of plain cloth, with coat
sleeves and q roll or sailor collar.
The jacket buttons down the front from
the vest, which is of the plaid like skirt |
or OF channels cloth. The fitted jackets
nave exactly the same appearance as the
imported Jerseys for Toys, which are
slushed OH hips. The vest may be at
tached TO jacket with a blackiriDbon bow
ut the lower eud fastening TO the neck,
with buttons and buttonholes, or the
plaid the shape of the neck opening may
be sewed OIL to the under waist to which
the kilt Is buttoned or sawed. The Rus
stun blouse of cashmere ia selected by
some as being prettier than the fitted
jacket. In the winter knee trousers are
often worn under the kilt, but should
not lie seen. Some mothers use them
only when going out, the wooden UNDER
drawers and knit skirt being warm !
enough for house wear.
Round waists and full gathered skirts
are still the prevailing style for school
girls. Trim with velvet ribbon and use
velvet collars. There are so many differ
ent ways of waist arrangement that il is
hard to mention any one without, in
deed, it is the yoke and Guimpe effect,
with full sleeves, which is always so be-
coming. Venetian red cameI's hair or
cashmere will be much used this winter.
This bright red started in an artistic es-
adjustment i'll London known for the at
ention given TO children IS clothes. 1t Is
