There was not II cent of change TO he

the smallest thing was IL ten dollar

that, and she was rather in despair

she put the package in her jewel box.

Applique effects and cut work are al
ways in vogue when braiding is fashion
able. Laid over rich satin, velvet or
1adies' cloth, the elegant pieces of lace
or silk passementerie Ell applique show
Ito distinct advantage, but it seems
pity to see these handsome patterns
laid over gowns or jackets of inferior
fabric without any apparent reason.
Lace is always so beautiful that it
seems n waste to utilize il for many of
the everyday uses, for which any
amount of it is ruthlessly applied this
winter.
Nearly all the new house gowns have
soft, pretty colors covered with silk
muslin ruches, the bands cut much
higher on the sides or at the back than
in front. In the holiday exhibit of
fancy necliwcar, net, in various dainty
weaves and meshes, is quite as fashion
able as chiffon or mousseline dc sole,
and while there are many very elabo-
rate and expensive styles shown, there
ARE likewise some fascinating little ere
ations which do much in transforming
q plain waist into smart and more be-
coming one. Rows of very narrow
white or tinted satin or velvet ribbon
lin black particularly, bordering frills,
ruches and scalloped edges, are very
easily applied. They are extremely eff
fective, and. moreover, they are quite
as fashionable as ever.
