MINKAKWAs.

The Minkakwa Club of Greenviile, tran
sacted very little business at its meeting last
evening. The men bers seemed to have lost
their hustling ability since the Greenville
League Club is becoming such an active
organization.
1--WE didn't do anything at all tonight"
woefully admitted one of the members last
evening. There's nothing going Z.
Apathy has crept into the organization and
unless the members bestir themselves the
League Club will have everything its own
way at the next election. The only business
transacted by the Minkakwa Club was to
instruct the Entertainment Committee to
arrange for a sail up the Hudson River.

And she turns from it with positive
dislike.
The economist suddenly remembers
that she hasn't anywhere near fits or
= hundred dollars, with which TO fresh
en- her old wardrobe. SO she repairs
to an intimate acquaintance, who adj
vises her to fix that old dress up with
handsome black moire-sleeves, ruffies,
revers and the like. This results in a
purchase of handsome MORE - some
four or five yards at a.!dollar and half
and the gown is made over with a
dressmaker's bill that is almost large
enough to cover the making OF new
dress. Then the economist reflects
sadly that she could have bought
enough plain cloth for an entire gown
with tho money spent on the MORE:
and notes also that the silk is far too
handsome for the old material it is
combined with
All of W hich, fear, is a poor prep
aration for my economical advice; for
of course l have theories on the sub
3ect, in connection with the rest of
womankind.
To convince you, however, OF the
practicalness of the suggestions to be
given you have sketched the result of
them for your benefit. The large fg-
ure shows an overvest OF MORE or
satin, which will handsomely trim a
plain bodice and skirt. It takes yard
and half of material. The vest is the
same back and front. It narrows into
nothing more than straps over the
shoulders, but wi6eas out over the
bust as it desceuds. \ broad buckle
catches the fronts at the left side, and
two pans of the moire fall over the
left hip. Heavy cream lace edges
these ends, and narrow vine of lace
trims the vest The lace most popula,
at present has a clear yellow tint, and
Is quite as heavy as embroidery. 1t
looks particularly handsome combined,
with black noire.
Another trimming makes a pretty
afternoon or evening effect. A ruffie
Of fine lace is gathered over each hip;
and fall of very deep lace, same pat
tern, is just in front. Around the neck
Is knotted broad piece Of black moire
"a soft, good quality, and then tow
Is tied. The loops are just large
enough to spread over the sleeves

Grossly In under the arms rrat rney
cover the bodice without Q wrinkle
and caught down with little jet heads.
Another bodice trimming can be
made with nothing but ribbons Sew
eral loops at the neck form the begin
ming; two ends spread out therefrom
and run down beneath the sleeves to
the back, where q small bow of up
right loops is tied Then q double row
OF the ribbon is carried round the left
side to the front, and another upright
bow is the result. This on a black
gown is very pretty in any Of the
cerise or petunia colors; or, on col
ored bodice, in black ribbon. The
energies of the great modistes are now
bent, for the most part, on producing
striking effects in the tailor-made
gown. Some simple drapes are intro,
duced in the skirts. and large buttons
are often added with good effect OF
course this necessitates petticoat be-
meath, either of the same material or a
bright contrast, and for this reason the
plain skirt is preferred by many. The
plain skirt is tastefully varied by rows
of braids at the bottom and up one
side of the skirt. Running parallel
with the braid at the side, row of
large buttons extends from top to
bottom of the skirt. Or with the
double skirt, the upper one is cut
open, and few rows of fine shirring
are sufficient to create three pretty
folds to fall aside, giving an ample
view of the smart petticoat beneath.
Another is caught up in single box
plat. and the plait is held and but
toned by band at the hip, trimmed
with two narrow rows of braid. In
this case the skirt is simply loos-
ened from its lining, and the lining
faced with a handsome contrast, SO
that no underskirt is needed. The
skirts edge has three rows Of the
braid. A jacket to be worn with this
is very smart, with short basque that
falls jauntily away in front. The res
vers are sharp points, and the'sleevea
only moderate. Two rows of the,
braid trim it. A linen waist Is worn
beneath with small points falling be-
low the waist line.
The tailor made girl has not escaped
the economical fever in spite of her
reputation for common sense. 1t
finds vent with her in small velvet or
cloth vest, which stretches across only
the front of her bodice. 1t fastens at
the back with strong bands of elastic.
She finds it very comfortable on warm
days; for the figaro covers the back,
and the vest the front, and there is no
unnecessary expenditure OF material

These words have a sensible intona

ture, look that covers a period OF
twelve months. And in her visions OF

A smart English walking gown has
bodice that is buttoned down the left
side, with small bone buttons. Three
fine folds are taken in the bodice across
the bust, and drawn into small
buckle right in the center. This is all
the trimming the costume shows, save
a plain satin yoke of the same gray
brown tint. l saw unique gown the

was of rich red and black mixture,
started from the neck and fell to the
feet, caught in at the belt by fancy
black cording. In front and at the
sides the box plaits fell from yoke
that was fitted closely at the hips.
They were headed also by this fancy
cording, and at the sides long black
streamers of MORE foated away. At
the neck there was full collet in
black MORE, edged with modest inser-
ton. The effect was demure, quaint,
but very pleasing.
