Corbett In that suit. And whatdo you sup
pose grandma will sayf
There is another little chap Of II who
wants g soldier suit. Nothing else will
suit him, so he gets . cadet gray outfit, all
trimmed with black braid and gold but
tons, and he has a pretty little cap of gray,
exactly such as real soldiers wear-when
they are little boys. The knee pants have
some more gold buttons, and no amount Of
persuasion would make that boy wear an
overcoat to obscure the glories Of his soldier
clothes, not until their first luster had worn
off and weather got colder anyhow.
When the little folks are all suited, the
fond mother turns her eyes with pride up
on her college boy. One thinks nothing
will suit him but a dark gray chinchilla
ulster, with an lawfully immense collar,
which is to come up to the edge of his hat
in the back when he turns it up, which he
does at once to get the effect. This Is lined
with lovely plaid wool. and the mother
wonders why women can never find a dress
material as pretty as that. Then he feels
in all the seven pockets, part inside and
part outside, tries the prlaces that fill the

the length, and the coat belongs to him.
Then he has to get an alpine hat to go with
it, for his derby would not do at oil. This
tired mother is so thankful that he does not
ask for a stovepipe that she buys the alpine
willingly.
Then the eldest-the pride of her soul
wants = fine beaver box coat, plain but ele-
giant. with a velvet collar and severe stitch
ings around the seams. This suits him, as
the ulster does his brother, and he asks
nothing more but a couple of black satin
neckties, and half q dozen fine hemstitched
handkerchiefs, and a pair of terra Gotta
gloves with black stitching on the backs,
as he likes TO be in style.
With a tired but happy face the little
mother takes her brood to another counter,
where she gets for each a house jacket Of
gray or striped swans down flannel. lined
with quilted silk and a pair of felt house
shoes. She knows that in one year she will
save the price of new carpets by getting
these. Their shoes for winter are also pur-
chased and have double soles. cork lined,
with good roomy toes, and are laced. The
wise mother finds it easier to keep O stock
of shoe laces on hand than to sew buttons
on every half bour of her life.
For the boys in short pants she buys
stockings of thick ribbed wool, with triple
heels and knees, and signs to think she can
not get some triple iron plated, riveted and
copper bottomed. Some are black, though
there are others dark blue. Then she bought
some black aud some white silk plated
socks for the two college boys, as they give
the best steady wear.
Then, all her purchases being made, she
looks about awhile to see what she can find
to write about to Cousin Miranda, who
also has a house full and running over with
boys. She sees some of the cutest little
kilt suits and pants suits of braided velu

bination Of steel and jet. The New York
importations consist largely Of round
hats of medium size and extremely small
bonnets. The shapes Of the hats are
varied. There are sailor hats In beaver
and satin, cooked hats, the napoleon hats
and hats with cleft fronted brims. Many
Of the new shapes show the hair in front.
Quite new are thes1ustrous felts with
low crown and medium brim, also what
are called "fats' in falt, velvet or satin.
Later nthe mercury trimmings in vogue
during the autumn will be superseded
by what the French term yalkyrie ef-
fects. These effects are brought about
with wings, which. however, are made
into a more haring garniture than is the
mercury. The winter bonnets are close
and very small. These come in felt, vel
vet, satin and lace. The SO called gold
bonnets are decidedly effective with their
crowns Of bullion embroidery.
Jetted net is much employed in MILL

black lace, with crown of plated blue
ribbon and passementerie. This hat is
trimmed with black velvet ends, osprey
snd roses. Velvet roses, by tho bye, are

the favorite flower for winter bonnets.
These roses are large in size and often
very dark in color. The bonnets have
strings, which are tied in a bow under
the chin.
With the mercury and valkyrie effects
in trimming, wings are in great demand
for garniture. Two, four and even more
are required to produce the laring val
kyrie effect. All kinds Of wings are en-
ployed, but there is an especial fancy
for wings of green, black and snowy
white. Genuine parrots wings are to be
seen On some of the most expensive hats.
