One very effective suit on this order is OF

with bands OF brown cheviot in self tone,

each one of the straps IS an inverted plait.

garment somewhat on the order OF the one
described is of ecru pongee- 1t Is cut In

TIE principal changes are being made on
the main floor. A grand marble stairway
is to replace the old wooden pathway which
ofice-seekers and business callers had to
climb to reach the Presidents office, on the
second floor. The new stairway will be used
to take the place Of the former stairway at
the west end OF the building, used by the
family and on state occasions. The latter
will be removed entirely, to mako way for
an extension Of the state dining-room- There
will be a small private stairway running
up from the first to the second floor. near
the private dining-room-

the most beautiful apartments in the world
The scheme for the decoration. furnishing
and ornamentation is regarded for the pres
ent as a secret. but it Is claimed that when
completed 1t will rival. IL not excel, the stats
apartments In modern Europe.
One Of the unexpected and heretofore un-
announced alterations now under way Is the
complete elimination Of the new ten thou
sand dollar iron conservatory, built about
three years age. There has always been a
conservatory to the west Of she White
House. which was reached by an opening
from the middle corridor on the main door.
The conserv atory not only supplied accom-
modations for the Marine Band at state
functions. but also afforded an enchanting
promenade when thu crowd was great at
public receptions
The conservatory. however, has been torn
down. leaving only its solid masonry foun-

White Brilliantine With
Metal-Bound Buttons.

One very swell garment on this order IS
of white brillisntine. Cut very long and
loose. it is fastened with three sel~f-covered
metal bound buttons. A triple cape eff
feet covers the shoulders. and the wide
cuffs as well as the collar are adorned
with heavy bands of black velvet. A most
thoughtful addition to this garment is q
patch pocket on the left side that permits
of the wearer keeping her pocketbook,
handkerchief and little affairs therein that
would otherwise have to be carried in the
hand.
With this coat Is worn g round white
felt hat, rather shapeless in form. The
