A Chrysanfhemum Dress.

Now that fancy dress parties are so popu-
lar II is interesting for the woman who
expects to attend such an entertainment to
know that short fancy dresses are usually
more effective than long ones unless one IS
impersonating historical person A flower
dress is very pretty-say q chrysanthemum
Have the skirt cut short, TO reach about
half way between knee and ankle, with q
rather deep and stiff white muslin and lace
balayeuse inside to make It stand out nice
ly. Wear with # q very pretty muslin pet
ticoat with several lace trimmed ballet
nounces, each well frilled. Edge the skirt
with a border OF large chrysanthemums-
white, pink and the tawny yellows that
Will tone with your crepon.
Trim 1t further with garlands of flowers
running upward from hem to waist, large
blossoms at the bottom, gradually decreas-
ing In size TIL those at the waist are quite
tiny Continue the lines with the smaller
blossoms on the low necked, sleeveless
bodice, and have q bertha OF the large
chrysanthemums.
On the head wear either a gypsy hat
trimmed with flowers or q cluster of two
or three fine blossoms worn in the hair az
the left side well toward the front IL the
hair is dressed high, or toward the back
IL In the fashionable low coils.
Dull green shoes and stockings and long
flesh colored gloves should be worn with a
flower frock. The wearer should carry a
long wand enameied rather pale green with
q big posy OF the flowers tied with wide
with long ends. II the flowers are too ex-
pensive-a great quantity will be required
for trimming the dress-they can be made
from tissue paper at very small cost.

ELECTRICAL COOK WANTED

Written for The Evening Star
Wanted, a cook who is also an expert

WHITE IN MILLINERY.
1t is to De Quite a Fad During the
Winter,

1t is to he Quite a Fad During the
Winter.
From the Millinery Trade Review.
AS has been the case during the past few
seasons, at this juncttre gossamer begins
to play an important part. and not only in
hats and toques especially designed for
evening wear; one of the uses to which
tulle and lace are being put is to combine
with their very opposites the roughest felts
and homespun cloths. y The, latter are gen
orally chosen In narrow bands sewn in
spirals all over puffed tulle foundation or
in wider bands folded double, mounted with
alternate bands of gossamer of the same
color. These combinations are made in
different coIors, both dark and light. Much
favor is shown for felt in the new crea-
tions. 1 do not mean to say that velvet Is
being sacrificed, but undoubtedly felt is
getting the upper hand. There is perfect
furore for "chalk' or plaster white felt.
Indeed, white is immensely popular, not
only as foundation, but as trimming.
During the last few weeks the demand for
white ostrich has notably increased. White
flowers are selling like wildfire. Makers
are hard pressed to supply sufficiency of
white velvet edelweiss, for which there is
growing taste since the visit of the Gar
ina, whose favorite flower it is. Single and
double white violets are also much in re-
quest The former are used in round bou-
quets, surrounded by whitey-green leaves,
and the latter maSSed together in wreath
surrounding the brim. Much is also done
with white foliage in velvet or satin, used
alone or mixed with berries or flowers
Some of this foliage is snow white but 1t Is
equally fashionable in white with a faint
greenish tinge. The berries may also be
white partially tinted. For Christmas
tide branches of white holly, with a little
touch of green on the leaves, and white
berries and whitey-green mistletoe also
with white berries have come out. Another
very charming novelty consists of large
white pearls mounted like cherries on white
or silver stalks, with pure white or silver
leaves.
Here are some of the latest creations,
trimmed in this way with white: A large
theater toque in white tulle The shape is
made with a cylindrical roll round the
edge, over which the tulle is slightly puffed.
and which supports a garland of silvery-
white cherry leaves. Pearl fruit in small
punches of from three to four dangle at
Intervals. Two Tyre aigrettes, also white.
are fastened to the front of the toaue and
sweep right and left.
A small toque, the crown and center of
which are covered with thick, wide braids
OF plated white Saxony wool, is draped
round the edge with reseda green velvet
On the left side are some two dozen pearl
cherries arranged in a cluster, and cherry
leaves in white velvet.
