1t has been admitted by people of
unquestioned good sense and taste
that. the corset of to-day is cut and
made in such a manner as to give the
wearer an exquisite figure and comfort
at the same time, and it will be long
time before it goes out, for the fash
icnable woman will not give up beauty
and comfort without a struggle.
The ribbon corset is still with us and
bids fair to stay, for the slender wom-
an has made it popular
One corset is in double satin ribbon,
a pale primrose in color, and made
little broader than the ribbon cor
sets worn this summer. 1t fastens
with four silver clasps and has six
rows of stitching under each arm in
dark primrose silk.
A pretty model in black satin is de-
signed especially for women who are
inclined to De a little stout.
1t is trimmed profusely with fine
black silk lace and has supporters at
the front and sides.
Rows of tiny baby ribbon head the
lace at the top and end in a large
double bow at the front.
Another new model is of white
taffeta silk embroidered in tiny white
silk flowers.
1t is made very long over the hips
and all the stitching is in bright red
silk.
The top is trimmed with a frill of
duchesse lace headed with a broad
beading

becoming to the possessors of blond
or auburn hair. For the brunette,
the ribbon should be colored, and a
bright crimson for preference, as this
tone makes a particularly pleasing
contrast TO dusky locks. Velvet is
quite the material par excellence this
winter, and is to be met with in the
form of shaped bands, separate fioun-
ces, or appliques, as well as forming
whole gowns. 1t is a particularly be-
coming material, and, being at once
soft and rich-looking, requires little
or no trimming, unless it be some
fur. Corduroy velvet is considered
very smart for outdoor wear, and it is
a harder and better wearing material
than the other. Velvet, however, is a
material for the rich only, as it must
be of good quality to wear and look
well, and the cost of a really good
toilette is considerable. Two golden
rules to observe in selecting anything
are-never to buy anything that is
startling or conspicuous unless you
have long purse, and avoid anything
that is too smart or remarkable to go
with the rest of your toilette, as II
will make the whole look shabby.
Idaho Springs siftings., 1902-12-20
The --latest Ideas
From Paris

Hat, muff and boa to match is the
newest fur smartness.
more durable than chiffon.
A ready-made silk ruffling is much
used in making light hats.
A smart golf jacket is of coral-red
wool, with coat sleeves of red taffeta.
White is the smartest thing for both
indoor and outdoor juvenile wear.
Jasper silk comes in very large pat
terms in soft shades of gray and black
for evening gowns.
A feature of this years fiouncing is
that the upper-skirt fiounce is deeper
than the lower one.

One lovely woman has ordered a
long coat of champagne-colored velvet.
Around the foot of it is a deep band of
heavy cream-colored lace. the yoke and
