Silk petticoats made for wearing dur
ing the cold weather are lined with
light, inexpensive cashmere.
The latest yelled novelty, or rather
| the latest novelty in wells, is of fine
| tulle tinted purple. In order to be eff
fective it should be worn with hat
trimmed with violet and by a somebody
| fresh and young. A woman secure in
! the knowledge that her veil of bright
mauve Was the newest thing, put it on
over q hat into whose anatomy
deep pink roses and green velvet en-
tered largely, walked down Chestnut
street and wondered why people looked
at her. Black wells sprinkIed with jet
| and having border of the same that
passes down the sides as we'll as around
the bottom are pretty but frail.
Even the pumpkin has asserted its
right as to the possession of aesthetic
possibilities and has made one bound
! from the field where it repOSed among
| potatoes and corn stalks on to our toilet
tables. And do not the many pretty
trifes adjoining our private altar in the
goddess of beauty cry out, protesting?
! No, indeed, for the pumpkin is Of the
softest yellow plush with green cloth
stem, and its ambition is to hold pins
rather than to evolve into a pie.
A clever French woman has set up q
new business. She has gone into dress
making for dogs! She gets up top gar
ments for the pampered pets of aris-
tocratic meSdameS. and she is making
up pleasing bank account while she is
at it. The hope that she might do so
induced her to go into the business.
The handsome waiting room Of her
establishment is provided with beauti-
full, soft rugs for the four-footed pat
rons. Divans are placed for their mis-
tresses, who give orders for blankets
for Beauty" rags" and "Wopsey."
The seasons modish blanket is of
sealskin, lined with plush, and edged
with astrakhan.
A most striking gown of purple cloth
has a faring skirt edged with black
fox. Fancy black braid covers each
skirt seam. The bodice is a short EN-
pire with plain belt OF yellow
velvet. The top of the bodice is fin
ished with loose yoke aud standing
collar of yellow velvet. The yoke falls
over the shoulders in pretty curves and
extends down the back and front in a
straight piece four inches below the
belt. 1t is attached to the belt -iE front
with large gold buckle. The edge of
the yellow velvet is embroidered in
black.
The eccentric girl wears at present a
silver heart as clasp for her left gar
ter. This heart is made to open like
a locket and picture may be placed
therein. In the window of Broad
way slversmith were shown the other
| day some things that looked queerly out
of place. AS they were about the last
articles you would seek in shop
of that KIND I'll not ask you to at
tempt to guess what they were, but tell
you at onCe-half dozen pairs of silk
elastic stocking supporters, the kind
that faSten on to the stays. You can't
imagine why they we're there? Simply
because the pin, the slide that regulates
the length and the clasps were of the
metal that is omnipresent just now. Be-
side these supporters we're a pair of
black silk braces also finished i'll silver.
Said the farmer: "a girl who can sew,
Can mix good baking of dough,
| Look after t. e house,
Take care of the COWS,
Knows all that woman should know"
