InNew York there are two or three places
where a speciality is made of children's out
fits, from O baby's first clothes to those for
girls and boys of fifteen, and l wandered
into one of these and was delighted with
the styles, which are handsome and use
full, strong and really adapted exactly
to the rpo and ages OF the wearers.
Those for the youngest are the strongest
and darkest, and it is only the girl and boy
who know how to take care of their clothes
who get the light and more delicate
colors and fabrics. 1t really costs less to
take ones children to an outftter OF this
kind and get everything ready made than
to buy the materials and make them. We
buy ell our boys clothing made because 1t
is cheaper and better than we could make
at home, and why not those for the girls?
A friend of mine who has two pretty
young daughters was there, and bought for
the n one a coat of snowflake cloth,
gray and white, with a braided yoke and
dark gray velvet sleeves, n a hat to
match. For the elder she got a dainty
light blue camel's hair, trimmed with
bands made of silk of the same shade
striped and dotted with chenille in dark
blue. There was an Elton jacket, with a
collarine, the outside of dark blue velvet
and faced with plain blue silk. The hat
was of blue felt and pale blue velvet bows
and plume. Nothing could be prettier or
daintier.
There were other garments in the latest
designs which were peculiarly suited to
girls of that age which is so difficult to dress
gracefully. One costume was OF old rose
cancels hair, which, by the way, is an ex-
cellent material for young folks. The dress
was q plain princess and had leg O. mutton
sleeves Of chestnut brown velvet. Around
neck, wrists, bust and skirt was a hand OF
drab coon down. The front had five rows
of embroidery in silk shaded from pale
green to 4 get brown. The hat was OF light
brown fefo, with feathers of old rose.

OF the Council is to confer the degrees.
1t is similar TO the Degree Lodge that

other degrees will be- worked by the De-
gree Council. The work will then be
done in accordance with the ritual. and
will benefit the order, as mauy VINO would

The next was a cloak, empire style, for a
girl of fifteen. 1t was made of rough prune
cloth, with the sleeves slashed with velvet,
and an imitation Figaro Of velvet, fur boz
dered. There was q capeline of the cloth
embroidered in outline with gold thread,
and this also was bordered with fur. The
sleeves had fur placed lengthwise on the
puffs. A plating fell from the yoke front
and back. Poke hat of velvet with shaded
feathers, all of green.
That reminds me that there is a large
number of such combinations seen wv
royal purple and maize, purple and green,
and-worst of all-purple and pink. Yet
these combinations are generally SO well
managed that they do not seem 30 very bad
when seen, even for the first time.
Another palmer but very pretty and girl
ish suit was a diagonal pearl gray cheviot,
with q plain front cut all in n piece, with
out darts. and with full plaits in the back.
There was a border of gray fur at the bot
tom of the skirt and across the bust and
on the bottom of the sleeves. The upper
sleeves and yoke were of tartan plaid velvet,
in blue green and red on a gray ground.
The hat was of gray felt trimmed with a
close bunch of tartan ribbon bearing the
same colors as the yoke.
1t is surprising how many diamonds are

finest necklace of diamonds has all the
stones pierced so as to hang them on q
string without setting. Mrs. Frank Leslie
has the third finest lot of diamonds, but
there are many women in society who also
have large numbers of fine diamonds, and
the effect of SO much dazzling %splendor at
one of the grand social gatherings Is very
fine and certainly interesting.

was handsomer than two that were
in New York for two young married ladies.
One was of superb heliotrope brocade and
peau de sole of the same shade. The front
of the princess dress YVES of brocade, the
back of the peau de sole, and neither had
any trimming. Around the bust there was
gathered and tied in a bowknot a scarf OF
old point lace, which reached nearly to the
bottom of tie skirt. The sleeves were
pulled. and cream colored gloves covered
the arms.
In the hair was apompon of purple feath
ers. Pearls were b eonly jewels worn with
this. The other dress was OF figured faille,
new silk. The color was blue, with apple
blossoms scattered over the surface, and it
was made princess style, with vatican train
and a fall of lace at the side after reaching
around the shoulders in the form of a ber-
the, looped with tufts of blue ostrich feath-
ers. There were four of these OF the cor
sage and one in the hair, while o the
bottom was a band of the same feather.
The front of the corsage had q pointed jabot
of lace almost covered with a stomacher OF
diamonds.
In all the churches now no stranger is
turned away, but every pew door is open
to him or her, and the higher up in the
social scale the owner of the pew the more
anxious is he to extend the hospitality,
which is a fashion of recent growth, but
one worth recording.
During Lent the young girls who arede-
v~otionaIly inclined rather affect extreme
severity in attire, and it makes them ap-
pear Iovelier to see the blind reaching out
howard sacrifice as a part of women's life
that they accept willingly without kne W
ing why.
There is a special church attire for almost
every Sunday in the year except Easter,
when women wear their brightest and best.
The rest of the time they make a point OF
wearing black, or at least their darkest
dresses. Black grosgrain silk, black faille,
cashmere and silk warp henriette, or some
of the elegant wooden brocades, are all suit
able and fashionable gowns for church
wear. The wraps are rich without being
conspicuous, and the bonnets are usually OF
black velvet and jet Or lace. No wells
should have place in church, and no lady
who understands the niceties wears one.
One lovely young girl Of my acquaint-
ance had a dress made to wear during
Lent of coarse cheviot in ash color, the
nearest approach she could make to sack
