READY FOR THE DANCES
Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.

NEW YORK, December 13, 1900
For holiday balls, theater and opera par
ties the dressmakers have been laboring
with vigor that recalls the Easter sea-
son. Every debutante must have fresh
and charming costume for the Christmas
dances. and the prevailing preference is
for delicate net or tissue draped toilets. A
white chiffon gown yelled with one thick
ness of black silk Brussels net is the
smartest combination yet seen. The chiffon
underpetticoat falls upon a taffeta founda-
ton and is usually accordion pleated in
curious shallow folds. All over the SOFT
white material small figures in silver SPAN
giles are worked. and then the black net
overdress is dropped upon this. Some
times a pretty pattern in gold threads is
elaborated upon the black yelling and
sometimes the pattern takes the form of

Don't let the little ones sleep in cotton or
linen night garments in winter. II you
can't afford flannel. make them some fan
nelette sleeping suits or night gowns. If
you do this, have warm light clothing on
the beds and keep the windows open. what
ever the weather. : You will find that the
little ones VIII very seldom be troubled by
colds or coughs. A screen between the bed
and window will prevent all danger from
draft. but remember there is more draft
from a slightly opened window than from
one wide open. so don't be satisfied to have

The Rage for Checks.

1t is quite safe to order stripes and
checks from your tailor. Your check skirt
should have coat to match, the me- es-
sary relief being in plain fancy collar
of an entirely different fabric. Red and
white checks. with some dull colored, tuck
ed silk collars, either round or square, are
in preparation, as being the newest on
fashions list. The tailor-made coats are
cut very short-n fact, they reach only
just below the waist Imagine the exact
and careful fitting these coats require, for

Wide and Narrow Shoulders.

What a lot there is in fashion! A few
seasons ago women wanted narrow. slop-
ing shoulders, and now the mode is to have
them as wide as possible and of a manly
squareness. Perhaps it is wise fashion,
for this generation,is tall. and of necessity
very narrow shoulders have become a
thing of the past-that is to say, among
the most handsome types of women.
