ChlHopette, a glazed silky gauZe is an
inexpensive variety of silk muslin and
which, in black, is much used for neck
quillings. In delicate colors it appears
occasionally in evening bodices.
PRETTY sCARFs.
Charming dance wraps, in the shape
of long hemmed scarfs or shawls may
also be made of it, as we'll as others of
ordinary chiffon; these dainty trifies
being of lightness not to harm fragile
gowns, yet providing when needed all the
protection necessary to bare threats and
shoulders.
In the way of making there are two
conspicuous departures in the new even
ing gowns from the styles of last season.
The change in the fashions of sleeves,
which daily grow smaller and more dis
tinctive.
Then skirts are taking to quaint little
rufiles draped flounces. and a prim out
lining of the cores; so, that with her
snug, odd sleeves, and the tiny direc-
tore fan she. now affects, a girl in her
new evening dress often suggests a faster
return to dead modes than the world

A CHARMING COSTUME.
A dinner toilet of old pink brocade pic
tured owns pair of the newest sleeves.
They are close fitting without being too
tight for comfort and have elbow ruffies
OF white muslin such as were worn by
wise Martha Washington and foolish
Dolly Warden. A plated vest and double
shoulder frills of the same tighten the
bodice effectively At each side of the
front. which does not meet over the
vest, there are two handsome buttons in
colored enamel and the skirt is gather
ed full and finished with a narrow ruff1e
run through the middle.
One of the old time revivals in skirt
decoration is shown in the second din

This is of buff and pale green striped
taffeta and like the first gown it is
sufficiently elegant to be worn on cool
nights for informal dancing.
Plain taffetas in buff and pale green,
are used for the trimming on the skirt
The narrow double plaitings of the
bodice are also of the plain taffetas. The
jacket itself is of cream oriental can
vas, embroidered richly i'm delicate east

a spangle deep-set like a bit of mirror
in a button-hoIed ring.
SILK NOVELTIES.
Yellow monotone silk is the material
of the bodice with the V-shaped neck
Monotone silk is rich brocaded gros-

the design. They are exceedingly hand

worn this winter.
The pink silk muslin gown is remark
able chiefly by being combined with
canary, yellow ribbon and yellow flow
ers, which appear upon the body with
rather startling effect.
A filmy lace bertha and lace f1ounces
outlining the skirt apron are other trim
mings.
One of the sash phases of the season
is demonstrated in the embroidered mus
lin frock.
other materials for simpler evening
use may be white swiss and any of the
striped and Powered organizes that have
pale backgrounds. The bod:ces must be
low in the neck, and a studied arrange

wonderful things in the way of trimming
