RECEPTION GOWNS.

The Byron collar in lace, says the
Chicago Chronicle, is picturesquely eff
fective. and we have a resurrection of
the addition of some lace designs
which were not seen then, namely, the
lace collars with all the network cut
out and only the lace flowers or the
lace figures remaining. Silk. or a cro-
cheted network is set in these open
spaces, and the result is a lace non
descript but pretty.
They take these handsome black taft
feta dresses and make them ready to
wear to a reception at home. While
making such gown 1t is possible also
to get it up so that it is very good for
the street. Then over this gown for
very nice wear they slip a lace dress.
Mrs. Payne Whitney wore over a
black taffeta dress which was ex-
tremely snug to the figure white
dress of renaissance lace. The waist
was of the most simple shirtwaist va
riety, buttoning down the front under
a flap of lace, so that 1t was practically
an invisible opening. There was. of
course, a little fullness at the belt. The
skirt was very tight and very flare
around the foot, untrimmed and entire
ly of handmade renaissance. There
was a belt of black with position back
and a black jet ornament in front.
The handmade renaissance is easily
possible for the woman lacemaker, and
she who makes lace collars and lace
spreads and lace odds and ends can go
to work and extend her sphere of han
diwork into the renaissance lace skirt.
She will need one of those forms
upon which dresses are draped. and she
must fit or shape her lace skirt as she
goes along, always making it over the
lining with which It is to be worn.

THE ART OF BAsKETRY.

A new pursuit for busy fingers, and
one that bids fair to attain as great a
vogue here as in Northern cities, is
the pretty art of basket-weaving. In
New York and in most of the North
ern cities basket-making has become
somewhat of a fashionable fad, fur
nishing, as it does, for idle hours an
occupation that is neither too difficult
to be dull nor too simple to be unin-
teresting, artistic and beautiful in its
results, as it may be made under skill
full fingers. and adding no additional
strain to tired eyes.
The basket work of the children in
the Savannah kindergartens has been
admired ever since it's introduction,
and more than one of their grown-up
relations have envied the dizziness of
the little folks. 1t is good news, then,
that two of the Undergraduates most
expert in the art-Miss Harriet Hardee
and Miss Belle Daniel-will conduct
special classes in basketry during the
winter The course will begin Wednes-
day. Nov. 5. at 1928 Taylor street, east,
and there is every likelihood that it
Will be most popular.

at intervals about the base of the pyra-

His arguments were so conclusive ana
his statements SO plain that many unde-
