Answers,

With Christmas and New Year en-
tertainments close at hand; evening
dresses assume considerable impor-
tance, and the perplexities Of varied
toilet on somewhat slender basis,
confront by far the larger proportion
of young girls. A China silk, white
or black satin skirt, will do duty with
half dozen different wastes, which
can easily be made at home, the
special points being to have them
very full, the sleeves very large, and
if high neck, two clusters of violets
or roses on the collar at each side in
stead of rosettes, with scant outside
chiffon ruching in which the flowers
should be placed. Festooned jet trim
ming is now used across the front of
chiffon waists, and colored "baby rib.
bon" is second new ornamentation,
festooned from one rosette to the 9th
er at the shoulders.

SLIPPERS AND STOCKINGS

the "Yale" slipper. With elbow
