lines to use as trimming for the waists.
These are either stif1y lined or are wired
to make them look as wide and uncom-
promising as possible. These are for hand
some and expensive gowns. The palmer
garments, intended for ordinary wear, de-
pend upon shirring and self trimming for
their Ornamentation as much as ever. I
saw one model suit for a young lady for
early fall that was very taking. It was q
slate gray diagonal cheviot, the skirt cut
umbrella shape. Around the bottom were
two narrow bias self ruf1es, each edged
with narrow white passementerie braid.
These ruf1es were shirred o n The waist
was shirred into q yoke across the chest,
and also across the back, and from the
bust line to the waist it was left loose, to
be shirred in to the waist again, where the
six narrow shirrings formed the belt.
There were two bows Of slate colored rib
bon at the belt and two others on the
shoulders. The sleeves were loose gigots.
Tho collar was made. of fine shirring. The
hat worn with this was of mode felt with
slate ribbon bows and q bunch Of enor-
nous velvet pansies. There was a mill
tary cape to go with this lined with maize
satin and trimmed with narrow shirred
ruff1es of the cheviot edged with white
passementerie. The cheviot was of me-
dunn weight. Cheviot is produced in
more and prettier shades now than I have
ever seen, and it feels softer and finer.
Heavy cheviot 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,

cheviot looks we'll as long as there is o
shred left, and it is one Of the few fabrics
that can be dyed and look like new.
Now, let us give a little attention to the
little ones, who must be dressed as BELTS
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 ~velvets, shaded corduroys
and ottoman silk, surah, china silk, pongee
and printed silks, are all made up into the
daintiest of garments for the little ones.
Some few of the quaint brocades are made
into handsome cloaks. Next come the
woolens, twilled, plaid and regular clan
plaids, shepherds and shetlands, and, after
those, of the plain tweeds, cheviots, serges
and camel's hairs, cashmeres, challies and
printed delaines. Cotton goods are shown
for children's wear In such a variety that
it is impossible to mention half of them,
and as they will now soon be laid aside I
will not mention them save to say that
for children's parties and for full dress
home occasions white embroidered swiss
frocks are always in vogue, even in winter.
Serge, having proved SO very serviceable
and so easy to clean, has been produced
in all the light tints for children's wear.
I noted a fall frock for a little girl Of s of
shrimp pink serge, made with o straight
gathered skirt, over which was laid a trim
ming of three rows of black lace insertion
The yoke was shirred under bands of in.
