Previous attempts at tho same thing have fallen through because the cx- pcnsCs were too heavy for wage earning women to support. The present enterprise, while giving its inmates space, light and air, Is to be run on an economical basis. One of its principal recommendations will be the absolute liberty and independence allowed its inmates. All the so called womCn's apartment houses have hitherto been conducted on n code of rules better | adapted to house of correction. Nearly | all the money necessary for the project has | been subscribed and the plans drawn and accepted.
 Buttons are the most conspicuous trim ming on the new dresses. Many fashion | able people arc having their buttons spc cially designed for them. This caprice is beyond the purse of ordinary people. how | ever, for whom thcr' Is variety in agate, | hligrCr silver or bronze. Even the jewel CTS have taken to selling buttons. some of them displaying in their windows costly | triflcs of isuld and silver incrustcd with | precious stones.
 The portrait exhibition at the National Academy of Design has given New York | CTS generally ClCSCr view nf fashion . | beauties than many of them have ever had | utluft. IBSIofc the opening lnCrC was con | siderable jealousy among the originals of | the portraits to whcrc their pictures | should hang. The artists in Chargc insist | cd that the bcst works of art should have the most prominent positions irrespective | of the suhjCCts' social position.
 The fashionable furs this winter will be sable and chinchilla for the strcct and CT mine for evening. Sralskin coats are go- | ing out of fashion. except for carriage I MrsT. grandmnthcrS in size In the way of col larrttCs the accCptrd length reaches only | to the waist

She was one of n family of models having n brother whose beauty, | to quote an artist, was soul inspiring There is q variety of lunch cloths this | fall. ColorCd denim braided in white is | one of tho novClticS-grCcn Is favoritc. Purc white cloths of glistcning damask are very fashionable. Some, however, have n border of flowers in q, licatc colors. l Some of the new skirts arc eight yards | around and arc known as the ripple. They are perfectly plain and lined with crino- | line, or hair cloth, from band to hem. | making them intentionally heavy. An | other skirt which Is better adapted for the street is five yards wide. perfectly plain, | with two or three gudct plaits down the | back.
 Side laced Gaitcrs arc said to he coming | into favor again. They aru neat fitting and always look well on the feet, but the process of lacing them is n test of patience.
 The most scrviccablc dress for tho busi- ness woman is the tailor made suit con | siSting uf skirt, coat and vest, with a silk waist for indoor wear. Linen collars and cuffs are indispensable.
 Even at tho risk of being considered fussy, always mark your trunk with your full name and the address to which you are going In case of mistakes 1t will save both you and the railroad officials much time and worry in tracing it.
 Combs for the hair in shell, gold and silver arc very fashionable this fall. For evening dress the largo spanish comb Is much worn. The very latest is a combi- nation of gold and silver nligree on shell.
 Orange blossoms are out of date. Lilies of the valley are the fashionable flowers for bride. Her bnuquct should be tied with very broad white satin ribbon, with vines of lilies of the valley scwcd on tha strcamers. LArHA OLIVIA BooTHE.
