broidered in colors, and there is a
habit back of lace and silk.
The yelling of the silk foundation
with a skirt of chiffon, over which is
draped another material, is fashion
important for dressmakers to note.
The crude black and white effect OF a
black spangled net over white satin is
thus much softened by interposlng
pale blue chiffon yelling between the
two. This color scheme can be worked
out in an infinite number of ways and
with many different materials, but the
yelled effect must not be too heavy,
or the charm will be lost, for it is
this suspicion of coloring that adds
piquancy to the costume.
This craze for heavy effects in
trimming is exemplified again in the
insettings of heavy lace designs in the
finer laces and figured nets used for
evening gowns. Chantilly inset with
guipure is one example, while for vari-
ETY. guipure and Irish lace are COM
bined, the latter forming some special
design on a guipure and tucked spe-
cial foundation. Irish lace medallions
on spotted chiffon is the combination
for one pretty evening dress, the lace
in the form of insertions encircling the
skirt three times, once at the head OF
a plated flounce, again midway be-
tween this and the waist, and lastly

SIMPLE TESTS FOR CLOTH.
How Shopper Can Tell Whether She
Gets What She Wants.

None but the expert" said a dress
maker who figured prominently at the
recent convention. "can distinguish
the quality of piece of goods on in
spection. 1t takes long experience to
acquire that intuition, as it were, by
which the choice is known Fl m the
Indifferent. Not all, by ans means
ever acquire the faculty, and those
that can are able to command large
salaries as buyers. On the other hand,
shoppers are constantly deceived by
fragrant impostures, which, by the OPP
Grafton of few simple tests, can cas-
lily be detected.
"Of the goods sold as all wool
there is not one-tenth that is genuine
In the greater part, the main compo-
nent is cotton. The test is simple All
that is necessary is to pull out few
threads and apply a lighted match.
Cotton will go off in a blaze; wool
will shriyel up.
ITO distinguish true, pure linen
from the counterfeit article is even
easier. The intending buyer need but
goods If they be pure linen, the
moisture will pass straight through;
the spot touched will be soaked at
once, and almost Immediately one side
will be as wet as the other.
Frauds are more numerous in silk
than in any other fabric. but here, al
SO, the material of adulteration is cot
ton. Its presence can readily be dis
| covered. Draw few threads out.
The pieces of cotton will snap off
short when pulled, while the silk will
stretch and permit considerable pull
before breaking.
silk, cotton and wool, these are
the three materials of cloth, and by
the methods given, the purchaser can
at least make certain that she is OBJ
tanning what she paid for.
Concerning silk, it may be re-
marked that the stuff our grand
mothers used to talk about that stood
by ITSELF is not necessarily the best.
Modern ingenuity has devised means
of giving the poorest article the body
requisite for this purpose.
Snellac and other sticky substances
mixed through the fabric, will produce
as stiff silk as ever graced the closet
of an ancestral mansion. Such stuff
is quite worthless. 1t rots away in no
time. AS matter of fact, the silks
most priced at present are of the soft
variety, with no more rigidity than
muslin.
Counterfeit, machine made lace is
| often offered as the genuine hano
made article. At first glance, it is
identical with the real thing. Even
one who is not an expert, however,
can distinguish the difference with
little care. Machine lace is always ex-
actly regular in its pattern, every fig
ure the same shape, length, thickness,
and so forth. In the hand made article
there are always little irregularities.

They had left the breakfast-table and
were standing at the window, looking

lake, when Uncle Hugh suddenly
stopped in the middle of something he
was saying to put his head on one side

"Bells!" he said; then he added
after a pause, during which sort of
dead calmness had fallen upon his
niece: "Sleigh-bells."
Nobody spoke again for a moment
until the jangling of the bells had
come quite near and stopped "Hallo!'
