while taking the cup of tea. If there's a
collar that turns up with flare about the
neck you can add much to its richness by
facing the inside with white lace. An old
fashioned wide honitan or point collar
would be just the thing and make you
fancy yourself heir to an old Vene-
tian court mantle.
Face wells are worn universally, but
they are of black tulle, plain or dotted.
The newest idea mould the veil like a
mask so that instead of hanging straight
1t curves under the chin and the edge is
not seen, the face being completely en-
veloped.
MOURNING DRESS.
Other fabrics come and go, but Grape
remains the sign of mourning, and the
mIIllners seem to mark out the widow s
cap for their chef-d oeuvre. The pref
test little bonnet imaginable is made of
huted ruffies of Grape sewed round and
round. 1t is set on the head towards the
back, with the veil folded and depending
from its center down the back like scarf
nearly to the feet. The veil on this par
ticular bonnet was not cut square at the
bottom but diagonal, so that the edge
cascaded down the fold and ended in q
point.
The most fascinating little addition pos
slble is made to black gown by double
shoulder cape of Grape laid in five plaits.
Don't make it too long; it is not for
warmth but only for decoration; just over
the shoulders is enough. Add a boa
round the neck, and you have a most be-
coming frame to head topped with the
little cap Just described.
Embroidered Grape is now furnished to
the dressmaker in widths for ruffies and
waist trimmings, and also for whole skirt
fronts.

DAINTY DRESS.
An Endless Subject This and Almost as
Shifty as the stars.

Snlfty as the stars.
PARIS, Feb. S.=An endless subject this
of dress and almost as shifty as the stars.
Like Flammarion, one can always tell OF
some new wonders; for no sooner is
fancy chronIcled than it begins to fade
and another springs to ken. AS constant
as anything seems to be the quality OF the
dainty afternoon gown in which one fixes
up for the quiet soiree, for the matinee or
for the little dinner at home.
Last spring this dress was of shot fou-
lard, and this season still you cannot do
better than shot foulard. The gown,
however, presents a different aspect be-
cause we are at a new point in the eclip-
tic; that is to say, it is made differently.
For such gowns the new shawl drapery
is in great request, and IS likely to re-
main SO through next summer. There
fore you cannot do better for your new
foulards, and for the old ones you have to
make over, than to study the model for
such a gown as illustrated here today.
Our drawing shows a charming costume
of dark green foulard shot with rose color
and spotted with rose. 1t is trimmed with
green velvet. Full plated reveres orna-
ment the neck, and a yoke is outlined
with bias velvet which terminates in front
with bow and long ends An applique
of cream Venetian embroidery over pink
is laid on for a yoke. The skirt is bor-
dered with bias roll of the foulard pulled
out with cotton batting and strapped
with velvet ribbon. The amateur dress
maker is advised that the long bow is
usually made with velvet "doubled on
the straight, - and that one end is sewed
on each side the waist and is tied when
put on. This model can be made up in
anything from crepon to satin.
AN ECONOMICAL IDEA.
You may see illustrated in this gown
the very latest note in economy. The
dressmakers have discovered a way to
make out OF this sort of design two gowns
suitable for wholly different occasions
namely, a short-sleeved, demi -decollete
dinner dress, and a long-sleeved, high
necked one for day wear.
This sounds contrary to axioms, but it's
as easy as Abracadabra. All that is nee
essary is to take out the long close sleeve,
which passes under the velvet elbow puff,
and is detachable, and to take out the
high-necked guimpe, detachable also, and
which leaves the pointed neck as shown in
our drawing.
This device is employed also with gowns
that are full decollete. Thus black silk
cut with round neck for evening wear.
if bordered with lace bertha or the scarf
drapery, can be made to serve admirably
for day wear, if you provide yourselfwith

So well were their capacity and attain
ments recognized that the distinguished
American historian of this century Mr..
Bancroft, declined wager with South
ern lady about literary question, saying,

ton woman--she reads SO many books

son of her duty to her sable dependents.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SLAVE HOLDING
FAMILY.
On the plantation it was not question
of cottage visiting, such as is common in
English and New England country life.
IL was the actual care of an irresponsible
family, large and often refractory enough
to dampen the zeal of the most Dhilan-
thropic.
There were clothes to be made for the
babies and little children, and as well for

recklessly brave, yet adaptable in the
highest degree.
These positive virtues are not generally
associated with adaptability to new condi-
tions, yet the southern people in their
bitter experience of defeat have given evil

--LATEST 1N MUTToNLEes.

The old muttonleg sleeve still holds its
own, but with change. 1t has been
studied and refined till 1t is full of curves
and grace. The patterns are as many as
the dressmakers; be sure to choose one
that let's the top fall down in a soft over
tapping puff upon the lower part, for this
is the latest elegance in this sort of sleeve.

The prejudices of her male relatives
were arrayed against publicity of any
kind for her-even the homage due To ber.
virtues seemed an invasion OF the sanctity
OF home. Thus the record of her deeds
has been suppressed and she blossomeu
bore noble Iruit and faded behind a screen
SO thick that it has obscured to the out
side world the gracious lines OF her per
sonality, and her works alone praised
: her in the gates, - but her children now
rise up and call her blessed.
