Khaki comes in different shades now
to suit different colnnleXions. Now.
that we know the beginning of khaki
it would be interesting to remember
to follow it in it's career to see how
far it will get away from the original
idea and still keep to the name, says
the New York Times.
Brilliant crimson kid gloves in the
shops show the popular taste for that
color. Really, people who are sup.
posed to have good taste in gloves dc
buy that shade to match suits.
1t is true that hardly bird OF
feather is to be seen in the spring
millinery. There is the thin material
that has been seen all winter in feath-
er effects in hats, straw ornaments
Stimulating them and whole birds are
made of different shades of paillettes.

less in evidence in some form or orna.
ment, now rears an iridescent head
from punches of fluffy material at the
sides of hats, and has self-confident
air. as if he were coming into his
proper estate. In some instances he
is combined with feathers, and in one
where his unpleasant head is sur.
rounded with dove feathers there is
too much suggestiveness to make the
ornament an agreeable one.
Flower gardens are still to be found
on handkerchiefs. and often they are
beautiful, with charming though bril-,
liant color effects. One handkerchief
has one corner, almost an entire
fourth of the handkerchief, filled with
a cluster of brilliantly colored flow.

chief costs SIS. Some pretty little
handkerchiefs have baskets of differ

The bragas or Bulgarian strips, the
hand embroidery of the Armenians on
handwoven linen, can be bought at a
comparatively low figure. Much of
the work comes in stripes which is
beautiful for insertion in wash gowns.
There are only two small pieces made
alike, and one is always sure of get

Gated, and as a trimming the stripes
are stylish and serviceable. They wear
forever. The two pieces of work make
handsome bags, small pillows, or are
pretty for handkerchief cases and diff
ferent things of that kind. One piece
of the canvas will have stripes enough
to use for insertion in one waist, and
a good piece can be found for $1.50,
and sometimes for less.
Little girls of five, six and seven are
wearing little short pulled sleeves to
their wash gowns. Some mothers
make little gimps with sleeves to wear
with little low-necked gowns, and in
the hottest weather remove them,
leaving the neck and arms bare. Some
of the sleeves are in odd little shapes,
fitting in at the armhOle and then
slanting out like straight little flow
ing sleeve to the elbow, stopping just
above it. One little gown with
puffed sleeve has what has the appear
ance of cuff longer at the back than
the front set into it.
The woman who wears her seal or
intaglo rings on the same hand with
her rings in which are precious
stones makes the same mistake that
the woman does who in hanging her
pictures puts paintings. engravings
ana photographs in the same group.
She shows bad taste and spoils the eff
feet of all.
