SOME THINGS TO WEAR.

Dead gold ornaments are among the
millinery novelties, and are extremely
effective on black. red and. indeed all
dark coiors They are distinctly large
and pronounced. and give the touch OF
completeness. They fasten long plumes
or simple bands OF gold galloon. They
catch the front back or hold the side in
place. But In some capacity they are al
most certain TO. be found on the chic
hat.
A bewitching teagown is of accordion
plested nuns yelling. caught at the sides
To the figure by girdle that leaves front
and back loose. A fall OF handsome ecru
guipure outlines yoke and appears also
at the wrists.
"A wreath OF white roses and several inn
pertinent little ostrich tips Is considered
In Paris the most effective finish for a
black cloth costume.
Another new fancy on the other side OF
the water In the velvet train on evening
gowns of most delicate fabrics This Is
said 10 be a tentative effort TO recall the
severe outlines that prevailed a few years
ago.
The Empire coat illustrates the pro-
nounced high mode which Is believed to
be the coming popular form. An import
ed example is made OF heavy kersey. with
a vest piece of Persian embroidery. de-
