Frills of Fashion.

The princess style is greatly ad
mired for reception gowns. Mauve
and heliotrope satin and velvet are
favorites.
Elton Jackets having the darts and
side seams outlined with braid about a
quarter of an inch in width are very
modish.
Jaunty jackets of broadcloth are
deliberately braided with silk cord in
military style.
A regal ball gown is in stiff pale-blue
brocaded silk, trimmed in rich yellow
velvet. gold spangled chiffon and other
fur.
Notably new is the latest model in
broadcloth. It is made partly of bro
caded velvet and has ceinture finish
ed off with huge steel buckle.
Gray is an important color in up
to-date millinery. The shirred crown
of n large black picture hat is of dark
gray velvet. embroidered in steel and
jet beads.
Point de Venise lace, sparkling with
brilljants. is French garniture fog
hall gowns of MORE brocade. Lone
trains on evening gowns are again
modish in Paris.
The visiting costume of the October
bride consists Of a skirt OF luetrous
broadcloth and Louis XVI. Jacket OF
plain or brocaded velvet. trimmed with
satin or lace.

About Cats.

Blue-eyed Minnie is going to change
her residence and wants some advice
about her cats She has been told that
1t is bad luck to move cat. Answer:
1t is quite customary to move cats and
all other pets when one changes the
residence. few people claim that bad
luck attends the moving of such ami
mails, but this has no foundation in
fact. Surely one would not leave cat
to the tender mercies of strangers or to
starve in an empty place. Cats are OK
ceedngly intelligent and sensitive ami
mails and need excellent care. In fact,
there is no animal that appreciates
good care more or thrives better or ac-
count of il. By all means take your
cats with you, Minnie, and take good
care of them.

white for wedding Wear.

People may not know that the choice
OF white for wedding dresses is COM
paratively modern fashion. The
Roman brides wore yellow, and in
most eastern countries pink is the
bridal color. During the middle ages
the renaissance brides wore crimson.
and most Of our Plantagenet and Tudor
queens were married in this vivid hue,
which is still popular in parts of Brit
tany, where the bride IS usually dress
ed in crimson brocade. 1t was Mary
Stuart who first changed the color OF
bridal garments. At her marriage with
Francis ii. of France she was dressed
in white, with a train OF pale blue
Persian velvet six yards in length. 1t
was not, however, till quite the end of
the seventeenth century that pure
white-the color hitherto worn by royal
French widows-became popular for
bridal dresses in this country.

The Mushroom to Avoid.

The delicious mushroom is liable to
hall into disrepute because of the dan
ger Of eating the fatally poisonous
toadstool This is unnecessary, for
there is one way, according to an au-
thOrity, that one can surely identify
the poisonous variety. This authority
saws that the mushroom which is found
growing from a cup-like socket, at the
base of the stem, must be avoided. No
mushroom with this cup-like base is
safe He says further that mush-
rooms having an unpleasant odor or
tough consistency should be avoided.
