COlors Selected for Spring.
From the Millinery Trade Review

The pastel tones appear under new deSig-
nations, for the most part, which have been
chosen with reference to color. Three
very pale shales of water greens head the
list, Aquarelle, Pastel and Fresque, and
these, well the four others further
on-Detaille, Trianon, Rambouillet and
Perrefond differing in tone, but equally
pale)-may be classed as among the most
fashionable spring colors, equally with the
three pale, dull blues, Vatican, Murillo
and Rembrandt, and the very faint sky
blue 1ngres. All the pastel pinks are charm
ing, the rose series-Mniature, Gauache and
Chromo the Solferino tones-Van Dyck,
Rubens and Raphael, and the flesh tints-
Nnon, Manon and Montespan. The names
of Dumas three heroes-Athos, Porthos and
Aramis-have been given to a series of dull
lilacs. All these pinks and llacs will be
much used in combination with the water
greens. Beiges of light shade are also
included among the pastel tintS, beginning
with new one, Bichetto, and pale buff,
Rayhet. The browns on the card are of a
golden hue, and the grays metallic:
cloud-gray, Corot, should be success. With
one Observation-Disclosures yeliows are
pale but this has the brilliance of the gold
cup water lily. Opinion is somewhat d.
vided on the subject of yellow, as to
whether or no it will rank high. / predict
for it success as a summer color.

Restoring Stained Garments.

From the New York Press
Fresh fruit stains may be removed by
scalding the garment in boiling water be-
fore washing it. Ink stains usually sue
cumb to soaking in fresh milk. The milk
will not injure the most delicate colors.
Saturating an article in salts of lemon,
lemon juice and salt, and drying in the sun,
will efface most stains including ink and
iron rust. from white fabrics. If the fabric
is colored the acid will remove the color as
well as the stain. Oxalic acid is still more
powerful for the same purpose. After
using it wash the article or; the acid will
injure the fabric. Ammonia will restore
color which has been taken out by acids.
When. however, the acid has been used to
remove a stain the spot often reappears, as
well as the restored color. French chalk Is
a specific for grease spots. Get the chalk
in the stone, as the powder frequently is
adulterated, and scrape it on the spot until
1t is well covered. Leave the chalk on until
1t absorbs the grease. Two or three appli-
cations often are necessary for the pur-
pose. Brush the chalk off thoroughly each
time before renewing it, and use plenty
of it.

than Is cents yard was substituted and A.
white organdie with tiny pink flower in il
was added to make another ball room frock.
The material for these two oyerdresses only
cost s.. So
This disposed of materials for dresses for
festivities for one winter season, and left
| surplus for gloves, shoes and the many ac-
ceSSorieS which make party dresses such an
item in wardrobe. 1t Is scarcely neCes-
sary to add that the owner of this lining
which laboriously earned its living bv
figuring in so many different costumes had
what poor girls must have, a clever and in
duStrious needle, and that her only help in
making this wardrobe built on one founda-
ton was seamstress who came in by the
day Most of the work was done by the
prospective wearer of the gowns.
And Yet Another Use.
Like all women who wear their clothes
well, the young woman in question seldom
wore at home the gowns which did duty
outside of her own house. But there were
to be several evenings at home, at which
she would have to assist and for them she
wished to make as festive an appearance as
was consistent with their Informal charac-
ter. The sketch shows what she evolved.
The ovcrdress. let me tell 1t in strictest con-
hdence, had been white swiss tea gown
once upon a time. The panel and UNDER
skirt We're white lawn, which she tucked
herself: the ruffieS and fichu drapery were
also of white lawn. while the stock bow
and belt were of black velvet. And under
this girlish costume, well as under the
gray crepe de chine the black grenadine
the pink organdie and the white organdie
with the little flowers in 1t, the much used
pink taffeta silk lining is wearing its busy
life away.
l cannot even say peace to its ashes for
much L fear that after ii has outlived it's
present sphere of usefulness II will be made
into ruffies for a petticoat, and even after
that, L see remnants of II dragging out an
almost endless existence, as bright spots
of color in a silk bedquilt.

questioned. Could she have not done with
out that second crepe de chine frock great
as was her need of at least four evening
frocks? For there is future, and half the
limitation of small wardrobe incomes is
caused by necessity of disregarding the
biblical injunction to take no thought for
the morrow. But it seemed unkind to call
her attention to that tomorrow, and, as she
averaged quite four or five nights out a
week during the short winter season, per
haps four evening frocks We're the very
least she could count on bringing her
through with well-groomed appearance
A grenadine which her mother had worn
over a decorous black silk lining for two
seasons was kind enough to be quite pass
able when properly freshened and cut down
to her still slender figure The skirt was eX-
tremely good, as her mother was a careful
woman, with a horror of skirts sweeping
pavementS. But the bodice was tender and
required some care. A combination with
rot specially expensive black lace was de-
cded upon, and the corsage was made of
alternate rows of lace and grenadine, made
bayadere. Narrow box plaitingS Of grena-
dine, caught down in the center so that

Each winter there is some distinctive
fabric and this year it is the hairy sur
faced zibeline, so much in harmony with
winter and admirable in dark green and
