Liberty reigns supreme, and the great
dictator in dress is no longer a despot.
On tho contrary, the flats of fashion are
now very often vetoed, and personal
choice and individuality in gowning are
everywhere apparent. This was notably
shown Ill the putting down of crinoline

Language of the Veil

Tho language of the veil of 1895 re-
quires little interpretation For the
theater, for summer dancing or for q
picnic the veil is fastened ON in the
thick folds that permit coQuettish draw
lngs across the face. The eyes now show,
now they are yelled, and it is the curve
OF the cheek that is prominent, again it
is the dimple of the chin. And the pass
erby says, THAT is pretty woman, a
gay woman, stylish woman and fash
lonablc one!' The mourning, the staid,
the demure veil is pinned straight across
the hat brim and drawn to the knot at
the back of the head and tied there. the
new feature being the way the trimming
upon the hat brim is placed over the
veil. If there is a jewelcd bug, he holds
the veil upon his antcnnn, and if flow
ers are there the veil falls beneath them.
Only the very stupid would now tie on
a veil over the gaudy brim trimmings

Satin duchess is tho silk fabric of tho

Pleasures of the Table.

Holiogabalus surpassed Vitcllius rs far
us Nitcllius surpassed Lucullus in the art
OF expanding vast sums upon the pleas
urcs of the table. According to Lampri-
diuS he cost the government for each of his
dinners more than $3.50, 900 in our money
This statement almost trunscends belief.
AT one of his banqucts was served an en-
tree consisting of the brains of COO, 900 os-
trichcs, quickly followed by another of
broilcd heels of an incalculabc number of
tender young camcls!
In the days of Shakespeare good digcs-
ton probably waited on appetite. Dining
was matter of fact business and dinners
We're so lacking in the variety of dishes
that an appetite was II necessity. In these
days, as III the days of Vitcllius, an appc-
titc is u supcrlluity. Among the high liv-
ers 1t Is satiatcd, duh, dead, worn out
Special dishes are invented to tickle and

blue denim ones, trimmed with white
braid, resembling, the blue and white
delft which is the latest popular fad in
china, arc perhaps the prettiest, al
though the rose or yellow duck are love-
ly with certain colorings.
All white ones are also very effective,
trimmed with blue and white braid and
tassels, also touched with blue, with
blue nails, the latter being covered with
fine Bolton cloth. The white linen braid
and tasscls may be made to match the
material by working in cotton of the
same color as the covering. The sketch
represents tall table for n palm pot.
The low tea tables may be made after
the same design; the legs may be either
round or square. Old rose linen, white
linen braid, white buttons of Bolton
cloth and design embroidered in white
cotton on top are the materials used in
this table
