ETIQUETTE IN WHIST.
Rules That Scientific Players VIII
Most Certainly ApprOYc.

Most Certainty Approve.
| The following eight rules, which were
| adopted by the third annual congress Of the
Amalgamated Female Whist Players OF
America, are formulated to prevent the
learner from un:ntentionally making the
game dull and unlnteresting. They should
be carefully memorlzed by the beginner:
First-Conversation during play is linn
tied strictly to the weather, fashion, So
ciety, the drama, music, art, sports, the
new woman, the last few tricks taken and
everything else that may tend to break
the firing monotony habitual to the new
players. The success Of the game depends
on this.
Second-Each player should at once throw
out hint as to the quality of her hand.
her satisfaction or dissatisfaction with IL,
and her approval or disapproval Of each
play. This will make you a popular part
ner with the men.
Third-A player should never wait to lead
until the preceding trick is turned and
quilted. Delays of this sort are always
unnecessary and make the game slow.
Fourth-Never fail, as the second trick
is turned, to inquire what is trump. Re-
peat the inquiry at short intervals through
out the hand This Is the easiest way to
fix II indelibly in your memory.
Fifth-Frequently card should be played
IN such a manner as to call particular at
tention to 1t. II you think your partner
is not aware Of it, touch your card and say:
Nov, remember. played that" He might
have finished the game with the impression
that 1t had played itself.
Sixth-When you have played the highest
IN suit. and 1t is your partners play. never
fail to remind him that it is your trick
He might think it belonged to your uncle
IN California.
Seventh-When you are accused Of revok-
ing stoutly deny It. II 1t is proved against
you. You can explain at length just how you
came to do 1t. II you discover your own
revoke never fail to revoke second time.
In this way the first error will escape notice
for little longer. This will make all the
men glad they are in the game.
Eighth-1f you are a bystander. walk
around the table and look over the hands Of
the players. Do not forget to call frequent
attention to the game during the play Of
each hand. This will prevent your hus-
bands friends from feeling neglected.

opportunity for one to Use the soiled or
worn silk gowD. provided 1t has a bright.
pretty color. This material is shown in a
variety OF weaves, plain or interlined with
narrow open work lines showing the color
OF the silk through. The all-over open work
batista is altogether too expensive to use
much Of, and is seldom seen save as a yoke
or some other decoration.

As hostess. the daughter Of the house,
whether officiating in the absence OF her
mother. or assisting her In the exercise OF
hospitality, should be courteous and cor
dial. Nobody expects young girl to take
eading share in conversation. 1t Is quite
enough II she hold her own agreeably, and,
above all. pay attention to what others are
saying. One secret Of social success Is to
listen we'll and to look interested, and this
tins girl hostess may do, and Will do the
better the more real and unaffected her in
terest is in the people around her.
Perhaps the girl hostess in these days is
occupied in pouring tea. No more grace
ful act can be imagined, and in dispensing
this simple refreshment she may fulfill tho
meaning of the sweet old word "lady," the
loaf-giver, and The giver as well of the cup.
II acting as hostess to friends OF her own
sex, in the merry half hour at o'clock
when college girls permit themselves to re-
lax their minds and give their studies a bit
OF recess, the girl shows her home training.
Here, in the ordinary course of conversa-
tion, she shows her freedom from awk-
wardness or she .apses into provincialism
Of speech or manner which is too strong
for the class room to at once eradicate.
But she need not be troubled about her
self as an entertainer II she possess the
hosptable spirit. Little by little one ac-
qulres social ease, one lays aside gaucheriee.
one learns to be graceful, and to perform Or
dinary elegant acts OF the drawing room

COSTLY GARTER CLASPS,

1ion0vrnms and Miniatures Set in
Jewels Are FavOrite Designs.
French oxidized silver is being utilized
extensively in fashioning the bickles. Mono
grams set in jewels IN the buckles, mock
or real are still the style. The miniature
craze is extending to garter buckles, and
1t 10 not unusual to see the face Of josephine
or some other celebrity of the Empire reign
on the garter buckle. An economic buckle
Is one which has two slides and a groove
through which ribbon may be inserted.
These ends are brought together and tied
In bow knot. Its clasps are of silver. and
on gray elastic may be subjected to color
treatment BY fastening with ribbons which
match every pair Of stockings. All garters
are adorned with hugo bow as well as the
elaborate buckle. Elastic webbing used for
garter is not more than a quarter of an
inch broad. but futed rufie Of the same
width on either side gives this appearance
OF breadth. American women were Glow to
receive the colored lingerie of France. but
now the hosiery OF the season is infinitely
more obtruisive than that Of the Parisienne.

Fashion has decreed that plaid shall be
worn. at least so far as skirts go. One rea-
son for this is the number of beautiful de-
signs shown by the weavers; they are much
TOO rich and attractive to be set aside.
Ihere are few figures which can wear
bodice made of plaid and look like any
thlnS save conglomere ton. But the skirt
is different matter. There is an air of dis
tlnction about handsome plaid skirt and
plain colored bodice which is very fetching.
In the shops are made-up skirts of plaid,
ranging from the pin-headed check to the
one-eighth-yard block, and all are fash
ionable. These skirts are ALL excepting the
small checks. made on the bias. which gives
the effect OF an exaggerated sweep at the
foot
smart combination Of plaid skirt and
plain bodice has the skirt of large blue and
green broken plaid, all f1ecked through with
gold and scarlet. 1t is cut to flare enorm-
ously at the hips. and has the favored godets
at the back, siy interlned with fibre

very nearly the same rustic as silk.

with successive rows OF insertion reaching 3
from the edge to the point Of the stick.
Perforated silk with colored Innings does
signal duty as an all around sunshade.
Parasolettes are much the vogue. They
are usually Of black tatfeta, with clover leaf
ruffles, and are intended Cor carriage Use.
Not infrequently they match the costume,
particularly II It be an elaborate ono, and
these are made Of bit OF silk like tho

in black point desprit. An old style shape

In eun umbrellas are quite - UP to date a.
the more perishable afAirs constructed Of
chiffon and other flr1y materials. Natural
wood stick handles are preferred to those
Of Dresden china. which obtained last year.
Chiffon. grass linen. embroidered batists
and Dresden silk faunt their beauty in
ones face. and it is difficult to determine
which shall be received with greatest favor.
For the use Of the bud, white chiffon ones
are much liked. One, with very acute oc-
tagon sections, has for Its foundation heavy
white silk. Surmounting II Is white chiffon,
fully shirred and Brought down into points

/ This style win be much appreciated b,
the young woman who likes to vary her
costume. She can easily accomplish the
feat, making the parasol harmonic with
any gown she chooses to wear by decorating
the exterior with different colored flowers.
For instance a knot of v,olets. placed at
random among folds Of the chiffon. will 60

For more festive occasions a garland OF
roses may encircle the upper portion of
the parasol. Trailing vines throwing out
their tendrils In several directions, form
a not despised mode for a garden party
very beautiful one, fit for royalty, is
covered effectively IN black duchess lace
In an elaborate design over white satin

bination.
One entirely suitable for a woman OF
any age has an insertion Of point de
Venise about three inches deep, let in
around the bottom. This decorative feat
ure is further enhanced by chiffon trill
put in with fetching little heading.
For the promenade. Dresden silk will
be utilized. These are initiated In printed
silks, which cost about nalf the price and
do we'll seasons service. One that was
particularly attractive was OF olive green
Dresden. with broad stripe OF black
satin, in which a rose pattern. in shades
Of cerise and vari-colored leaves, was ap-

highly polished cane hande enamelled in
ecru and green and a fetching bow
