There is no reason why a woman
who is q clever colorist should not eX-
ercise her talent on making new gowns
of old. Indeed, there is every reason
why she should, since it is to her that
the larger measure of success is sure
to fall. Take, for instance, a pearl
gray satin frock, or one of cream col
ored silk or satin, which are things
that most women possess. 1t could be
yelled with emeraId-green net, and
have round the waist a deep sash of
pale sky-blue miroir velvet, and epau-

it by with a hopeless sigh; others

and be sure something would be
evolved from the proceeding. The

as very far gone. 1t would be we'll to
sponge it. when ripped, with weak,

would be the smartest. but there is
great choice in yelling materials.
Round the skirt, above the hem, from
the knees down, bands of bright
orange satin ribbon might be run on
inside the net graduated in width, the
wider at the top, and these edged
with tiny frills of black Valenciennes
lace run on the outside of the net.
The same idea could well be repeated
on a rather full over-bodice of net,
drawn down into a shaped belt of deep
orange velvet Orange velvet tabs
turned over, like revers, down the left
side of the bodice, and edged with mar

again in life in it's whole state. There
are, however, portions of 1t Which Will
be found very useful in regenerating

operation because there is nothing
more dilapidated looking than shabby

can get out of a dear old gown enough
to put three bands round a skirt of

handsomely trim the bodice, surely
you will have very satisfactory YER

an old favorite. If the velvet is brown

day, expensive and elaborate though it
is in complete condition, to encourage
home industry. So many things that
are costly and handsome looking may
be quite we'll done at home, and some
part of the dull days profitably employ
ed in preparing for the fun of the
festive winter evenings.
The bachelor girls in our illustra-
ton are having a little consultation he
fore sitting down to the Thanksgiving
fare provided for them in the next
room. They are gowned in the very
latest models. The young woman in
the chair wears blouse in cerise silk
entirely yelled in black accordion
pleating trimmed with jet and lace
edged frills. The bodice is finished off
with a short basque and ribbon belt.
The fair damsel who is standing and
harangueing her companions, wears an
elegant Partisan dinner toilette. It is
of mauve taffeta and has a front
breadth of mauveI satin ornamented
with white bands Of ecrue lace inser-
tions. The bottom has a flOunce of silk
muslin. The hloused front of the cor
sage opens upon front of Nile green
satin crossed by insertions Of pleated
silk muslin, reVers and straight collar
with bow in front.
OF the two seated on the couch, the
one nearest the center wears an ele-
CANT blouse of velvet tucked to form
squares. In the center of each of these
squares is set an ornament of guipure.
The fourth and last of the bachelor
maids is dainty and attractive in an
original blouse of lace mounted over
silk in a new shade of misty blue. The
frill on the shoulders are of the same
blue chiffon edged with tiny rose ruch-
ings of baby ribbon. The high belt is
of turquoise MORE ribbon. This is an
ideal theater or home dinner blouse.

First of all, the trimmings must be
removed Then I would suggest OPP
Grating on the surface Of the satin
with some bread damped and put into
the oven. A ligt deft rub all over with
the GRUMPY portion Of this will remove
the more aggressive part of the soil,
and, if the satin be a good one-and
here let me say that the dearest fabric
ever purchased is bad satin-there will
be no i'll effect from crush which cannot
be removed by ironing lightly on the
wrong side The next thing to be de-
cfded is what colored yelling will best
suit the wearer's complexion, and best
hide any marks that will continue to
cling with undesired affection to the
sheeny fabric. l saw one gown yelled
with red net, the color of the petals OF
q geranium, and the effect was excel
lent. What is very up-to-date is to
have this over-dress open at one side,
showing the white satin below. Of
course some trimming down this part
of the gown is a necessity.
A few bouquets of Velvet-petaled
scarlet geraniums taken to pieces and
sewn up either side of the net at the
opening make a pretty floral finish. An
other way to arrange is to border the
sides with red satin or velvet ribbon,
and to sew silver sequins or ruby
beads over it, while with little fur

series of graduated lines. The back
draping of the net must be arranged
similarly to that of the satin. The
bodice is the chief difficulty, because
the newest idea is an adaptation of the
ubiquitous Russian bodice with full
ness brought to the waist back and
front. To do this without a clumsy
appearance requires not only skill, but
experience, because everywhere else the
net must fit, not tightly exactly, but
without fullness. The net, too, must
be embroidered before it is used. The
dress which 1 saw was done with
geranium net, wrought over in undu-
lating lines round the figure with sill
yer and ruby jeweling. 1t had lit
tie full vest of crepe de Chine, and at
the back there was no fullness, but
the folds were drawn down under a
folded red crep de Chine sash, which
fell at one side in long ends prettily
fringed. This looked very nice and very
smart, and was much more easily ma
nipulated at home than a Russia bod

points of velvet. The present fashion
of having designs in lace applied on to
velvet is a very happy thing for those
whose frocks have been in accidents.
The lace laid over the spot not alone
removes all trace of the disaster, but
adds very much to the smartness of
the effect.
MANY Of the evening dresses have
long sleeves. These are of net, en-
broidered in jet, steel, silver gold, or
ieWeling or of net tucked or shirred,
or of chiffon They are things which
can easily be made at home from a
good paper pattern. and when added to
a dress that has been worn before they
quite alter its character They are as
a rule becoming and to those who have
not white and 5Well7Shaped arms they
are a positive boon. From a health point
of view they are also welcome, for,
ethereal though they are, and must
be to be dressy yet they afford pro-
lection, as the back part of the upper
arm is a very susceptible portion of
the frame to cold. Many evening
frocks, too, will be worn with trans
parent yokes and collars. This is a
very becoming fashion, and to those
who have handsome dOg-collars of jew
els-which are, of all others, the smart
est neck ornaments-these yokes afford
excellent opportunity of displaying.
them. These little adjuncts to dress
also offer pleasant home occupation
Some are made of white net, or black,
as the case may be, having a lattice
over pulled-on satin baby ribbon; the
collar is finished with row after row of
this pulled-on ribbon, showing above
the dog-collar of pearls or diamonds,
or plain and wrought all over with
sparkles, sometimes aluminium, some
times jeweling, or simply jewel-studded
gold.
The evening wraps that are most
used at present are full capes, and one
of the very prettiest of these that
have ever seen was made at home 1t
was of ivory satin and was deep and
full. On the satin was painted a de-
sign of Japanese chrysanthemums, in
shades toning from pink to deep russell
The cape was lined with white libel

I also saw q wrap, somewhat similar

with designs in lace applied on it. lined
with squirrel fur, and bordered with

graduated bands in front and at either
side of the skirt from the hem up
ward, in which case each point might
be tipped with a little cluster Of pale
blue ostrich feathers. The bodice in
this instance should be principally of
velvet over soft folds of pale blue tulle
with feather trimming in the same
shade arranged as epaulets and a clus-
ter of feathers at one side. If Suff1-
cient quantity of the velvet is not ill
a condition to make the principal por-
ton of the bodice, designs in cream
cOiored lace might be applied on it,
which would make the dress look still
more fashionable and handsome.
Black velvet gowns are even more
usual possessions than those Of
color. Thee give way to the
influence of time, and wear
more particularly as regards the

velvet Is too soft and rich a material
for that treatment, but they can be
operated upon with the scissors. 1t
may be that the bad breadths can be

in this instance in black and white.
A very usual and up-to-date way of
arranging velvet skirts is having them
open at one side. as if they were a
kind of over-dress cut in one with the
bodice, or else opening at either side,
showing white satin, and giving the
front the appearance of square
tablier In either case, pretty ano
stylish finish would be points of white
guipure lace laid on the velvet back
from the opening. spangled with ca
bochon of jet and edged narrowly with
mink fur. The bodice would have the
sides and sleeves of white satin, with
black velvet drawn UP in fan-shapt
folds back and front, finished rouno
