Eaw one model suit for young lady for
carly fall that was very taking 1t was a
slate gray diagonal cheviot, the skirt cut
umbrella shape. Around the bottom were
two narrow bias self ruffles each edged
with narrow white passementerie braid
These rufIics were shirred on. The waist
was shrred into yoke across the chest
Snd also across the back, and from the
Lust line to the waist it was left loose to
be shirrOd in to the waist again, where the
six narrow shirrings formed the belt
There were two bows of slate colored rib
bon at tho belt and two others on the
shoulders. The sleeves were loose gigOts.
The collar was made of fine stirring The
hat worn with this was of mode felt with
slate ribbon bows and bunch of enor-
nous velvet pansies. There was mill
tary cape to go with this lined with maize
satin and trimmed with narrow shirrcd
rufflcS of the cheviot edged with white
passelncnteric. The cheviot was of me-
dunn weight. Cheviot is produced in
moro and prettier shades now than l have
ever seen. and it feels softer and finer.
Heavy chcviot for winter differs little
from that of last year-in fact, it cannot
differ much, and it is always the choice of
the true lady for service and elegance 1t
costs more than novelties, but they soon
go out of style, and being made for show,
have little value for durable gown, while
cheviot looks we'll as long as there is
shred left, and it is one of the few fabrics
that can be dyed and look like new.
Now, let us give little attention to the
little ones. who must be dressed as bCfits
their sweetness and delicacy. There is a
long list of materials of which to make
their garments, which includes the wooden
and nearly all the silken fabrics their
mothers wear and some made especially
for them. Plush, both silk and cotton,
velutinas and vclvcts, shaded corduroys
and ottoman silk, surah, china silk, pongce
and printed silks, are all made up into the
dainticst of garments for the little ones
Some few Of the quaint brocados are made
into handsome cloaks. Next come the
woolcns, twlled, plaid and regular clan
plaids, shepherds and shetlands, and, after
those, of the plain twceds, cheviots, serges
and cancels hairs, cashmeres, challies and
printed delaincs. Cotton goods are shown
for childIen's wear in such variety that
it is impossible to mention half of them,
and rs they will now soon be laid aside l
will not mention them save to say that
for childrcn's parties and for full dress
home occasions white embroidered swiss
frocks are always in vogue, oven in winter.
Serge, having proved SO very scrviccable
and so easy to clean, has been produced
in all the light tints for childrcn's wear.
