One of these goes a good way as n trim
ming 1t is generally set at the bottom of
the skirt in front at the left side Smaller
ones are put ON the corsage. There is a
growing fancy for close and full rosettes
as trimming on everything and particu-
larry for children.
saw lot Of pretty clothes for boys and
girls this week as well as for children of a
larger growth. There was combination
suit for one girl that struck me as being
very harmonious in color and graceful in
design. The dress was of Havana cloth,
and over this was long half loose coat of
moss green. 1t was double breasted and
buttoned down with large brown velvet
buttons. There were cuffs of brown velvet
and double cape, the lower part being of
Havana cloth and the other of the green
oamel's hair. The reyers were faced with
moss green velvet, and so was the collar.
The pockets were postiche and faced with
the velvet. With that was dark green
felt hat with two black plumes and a
cherry red velvet bow held by a paste
buckle.
There are for children high topped boots,
which reach at least three inches higher
than they have been before. This will
protect the ankles from the damp and
cold, and they are more dressy besides.
Some of them are scallcped or notched at
the top and neatly stitched.
Another neat and pretty walking dress
was of gendarme blue serge, with five
rows of half inch castle braid around the
bottom. The sleeves are pulled and have
rows of braid all over the forearm. There
is small cape collar of the same material,
with four rows of braid. Around the neck
and tied in front and falling in long ends,
caught together by ribbon rosettes, is q
crepon scarf of dark blue, just the shade
of the felt hat, which Is trimmed with
dark blue plumes. A very girlish little
frock was Of mode cashmere, with an Elton
jacket and draped vest of cornfower blue
notified taffeta. There was a band of the
same two inches wide around the bottom
of the plain plated skirt. y blue velvet
Tam O'Shanter hat was TO be worn with
this, and Tam O'Shanter's memory will
be perpetuated all this season by these
natty little caps of every style and color.
The incroyable tie has given place 10 the
collar draped across and with winglike
ruffies standing out either side of the neck.
Sometimes these are medium size, but
other times they are enormous. Some are
made of tulle, either plain dotted or span
gled, and again they are made of silk or
velvet, and however they are made they
are always becoming alike TO the young or
the old The broken lines soften faded
faces, and the colors make bright faces
brighter still.
The new checker board plaids are being
eagerly caught up by stylish dressers, par
ticularly the blue and green and the black
and reds. They have jackets Of bourette
embodying the two colors in the plaid, and
generally the underwaist is of the lightcst
color In the plaid and of silk. Sometimes
the waist is of changeable silk in the same

the most exquisite fabrics ever offered 20
edorn youth and beauty. IL Is I'm tho even
Ing shades, made suitable for any drcss
occasion by the style OF trimming In
black and day colors 10 Is very rich and
beautiful One OF the best traits OF char
scter fayctta has Is that 10 Is absolutely
untsarable, and so Is good for dancing
gowns. All who dance know what 10
means 10 have n dainty but flirnsy dress
literally torn into ribbons by clurnsy feet,
and anything that looks as festive and
dressy as fayetta and Is so strong Is n boon
beyond price One dress made of this stuff
was in the pale cOrnnower blue, with n
skirt dancing length. Around the bottom
was n rose plating Of the same material
cut bias and having the edges fringed half
an inch deep, giving tho trimming the ap-
pearanco Of n succession OF corn1owers all
around. The waist was bebe style, with
large pulled sleeves. There was n row Of
the same kind Of plating around tho
neck and q wide sash of MORO ribbon TO
match draped around the waist and tied
In the back, with long, floating ends. Tho
dainty slippers 20 60 with this had tiny
close bunch OF corn1owers on the front.
Flowers on dancing slippers are often
seen, but they must be of a kind that does
not crush easily.
How To describe the hats and bonnets
DO not know There arc so many kinds
and no one particular form. There is the
Marie Louise bonnet, but ] think it Is not
finding the favor expected. The toque and
turban, on the contrary, ara gaining daily,
and they always were pretty. They are
pretticr than ever now, with the beautiful
new colorings and trimmings. Much jew
elry Is put upon these OF n semiprecious
kind, and they make brave showing, but
with all the brilliant effects of gold and
silver and shining stones. There are also
hundreds of fancies of hats and bonnots
where the trimming consists of plumes In
fluffy punches or standing upright or
dropping, just as their adjustment proves
most becoming. Metal braids enter largely
into the foundation of many hats, being
employed with strips of felt, noil or che
mile.
Tho felt hats are smooth IN some cases
and with a beaver finish in others, and the
brims are bent and twisted in many diff
ferent ways. The full little tie where the
ends reach upward and surround the face
with q caressing touch are very much
liked, hut the incroyable bow and tie is q
thing of the past. Some Of these cravat
ties arc of white null, some of tulle, some
of chiffon and others of spangled black
net or velvet of some rich color or black.
Those made Of velvet usually have one or
two fancy bows. The donkey ear and rab-
bit ear bows have gone where all good
fashions go when they go out, and dog
cars are now in. On nearly every gown
there is either a chou or q dog ear bow.
Some of these latter are very cleverly ar
ranged and initiate the different manners
in which different kinds OF dogs wear
their ears. There is another ornament

LATE FALL HATS.

IN gray and blue. On the jacket were six
fiat gold buttons The full vest front was
of the serge, and there was a collar and q
belt OF notified blue and black taffeta.
There were deep revers of the same silk
and deep cuffs and two pocket flies of the
silk Around the bottom of the skirt was
a band Of tie silk six inches deep, laid fat
and cut on the straight. 1t made very
genteel gown. AS general rule, blue and
gray make a hard and cold combination,
but owing 70 the adTnixture Of black in
the silk and the shading of blue and gray
IN the weave the effect was more pleasing
than usual.
Among the prettiest Of the new gowns
for tea and receptions 1 find some espe-
cialIy designed for the young ladies of the
families made OF fayctta, which is com
paratively new fabric made of equal quail
ties Of silk and wool and resembling SIX

Ladies' Column.

Mrs. FIREMAN., who manages our
Dress Making Department, has re-
turned from Chicago and is just
overloaded with fashions, styles, and
talks from morning to night about
dresses being cut this way and that
way, and this is in fashion and that
out of fashion, about how this ought
to be made and that ought to be
made. It's worth your while to hear
her. She says we are in it with the
best of them when it gets to hand
ling stylish goods.
Rainy weather always suggests
something warm and as all Wool
Flannels and Flannelettes are quite
the thing we propose to decrease our
stock of them somewhat during the
week, at what is becoming quite we'll
known as Quick Sales and Small
Profit Prices.
Flannel is an article in every day
demand, and as necessary to the
complete outfit as air and light to
perfect health and strength. For
Night Dresses, Chemises and Knick-
ers nothing is better, while for
dresses nothing is heater or more
comfortable. We are going to move
these goods and now is the time to
buy them, and when you are doing it,
don't forget that we are making run
this week on Flannel and Flannel
cites, that other bargains are offered.
- Yes your five cent check is
worth just as much as five dollar
one-it is not the value of the checks
that takes you to the Volcano but
the number you have of them.
