Mothers are, many of them, busily
selecting and making up muslin de-
laine, creamy white India silk and
chiffon for the little maids who will so

now worn by the wee girlies are of
accordion -pleated white or cream white

At delightful Tea given in the Western
Addition this week there were an unusual
number of handsome capes noted, most be-
ing of black velvet. One was of this ia brio
lined with palest blue satin and trimmed
handsomely with sable. Another had
some rich Irish point applique on the
large collar, which was lined, as was the
rest of the garment with white satin. A
matron had a yet handsomer wrap as her
cape was completely edged with real point
lace. the lining being gorgeous piece of
green brocade. AT this same tea very
striking brunette wore an exquisite piece
OF rare lace. 1t extended in a yoke-like
effect from her velvet stock collar. In
deed, with such an adornment any plain,
well-ftting silk or velvet gown could be
made effective.

1t is predicted that we are to wear "rats, :"
such as our mothers wore years ago. They
are horrid, but then the genuine pompa-
dour must have foundation as well as form,
and so we may expect to see "rats" in
general use within few weeks. The new
est side-combs half encirce the head and
assist in holding the present style of puff

On account of demand for chinchilla
pearl-gray satin lines many coats and

worn in Paris is described as having been

Muffs lined with fur are not popular, for
they too rapidly soil delicate gloves. AS a
result our bellies prefer lining of white
satin. A New York beauty was recently
seen with very lovely muff of chiffon.

The Introduction of touch of white to
our winter gowns, although extremely ex-
pensive, is again to be the rage, as we long
ago discovered it to be charmingly becom-
ing. A good ana sensible arrangement is
to have a white satin waistcoat draped
with some real lace, well made, for with it
can be worn your black tailor skirt and
coat of fine cloth, and later a smart COM
bination is to wear it with a black silk or
satin SKIRT and . sealskin jacket, which. if
really stylish, will be lined with white
satin. OF course a bloused waist of the

FOR MEN.
MARCELLA,

Another great exertion is being made by
THE Healthy and Artistic Dress Union"
in London to bring about a radical change
in evening dress for men. Black velvet
has been selected as the correct fabric,
and the regulation swallowtail cut for the
coat is TO be retained, but it is to be fur
nished with deep cuffs of silk. matching
the rolled black silk collar. The vest is to
be of corded white s.lk, and the shirt
of soft white silk, with a turned
down collar there are to be frillngs at the
wrist. The tie will be of soft silk with
lace ends. The coat is to have buttons of
dull gold, enameled. Knee breeches are
to take the place of our trousers. and the
black silk stockings are to be worn with
patent leather shoes having handsome
buckles.
> , > > y
1t will be many moons before any
changes are likely to occur, although it is
an accepted fact that the present style is
hideous. The stiff shirt bosoms are far
from artistic, and many men are in favor
of knee breeches, but the Due de Moray
did not even succeed in changing the color
OF the cloth used for full evening dress,
and l think this change will probably
come first.
. > > , ,
1t is interesting to note that "the swal-
lowtail coat of to-day has, by long series
of evolutions. been evolved from the Just
au-corps worn before the Revolution (the
pockets which were in front relegated to
the back) and also from the long outer
vest of Charles IFS reign, made without
any gatherings at the waist and with but
tons and buttonholes down the front, worn
also throughout the period of William LII.

And the fashionable woman of to-day
does not consider that one such cloak is
sufficient, nor even two, one dark, the
other light not at all. She must have her
sortie de bal to correspond in color and
trimming with whatever gown she wears.

pensive, gorgeously extravagant season.

design of daffodii and hcliotrope. embroi-

palest of pale swansdown in an evanescent
shade of pinkish lilac and edged with an
intermingling of faint lemon-hued mara
bout, and pink coral, garnets and uncut
topazes made into a fringe. This cloak
was very wide and long. At the
back there was a Vatican plat of

and gradually widening until it reached

The front of the cloak was arranged with
a kind of stole of the same lace over
changeable pink and azure satin, while the
neck was surrounded by thick ruche of
the same material and finished off by a
little pointed hood easily drawn over the
head in cold weather"
