The styles which have as yet presented
themselves for September display fewer
faults than is generally the case. Every
where one sees tendency to correct the
exaggerations which come from the pop
ular acceptance of an idea, and skirts bid
fair once more to adapt themselves To
human possibilities. The short closely tit
ting. pleated and box-pleated skirts of the
summer, which had such 'bobbed off
look with their long tailed coats are con-
spicuous by their absence.
There is a pleasing relationship between
the length of the new coats and theiI at
tendant skirts, and both show a com mfort
able increase in width. The tails OF the
fitted coats are in some cases extravagant
ly long, but cereful fiaring of them at the
hips results in an easy fall, more becoming
than the late skinny fit.
Skirts too, are much wider, and a sen
sible arrangement of the ready-made sorts
Is to have the front and sides only of the
top put into the belt. The back breadths
are left to he pleated or gathered in-or
even pulled In with a drawstring-and as
almost all ready-made skirts need to be
altered at this point, the new condition of

ostrich feathers. The braids are of pale
ecru tint. the gallon black. the lining of vel

MANY of the new models on show have
domed crowns, some being very low when
they are often concealed beneath a large
bird. or a bow composed of number of
long loops fastened In the center by
buckle. The domed crown is the one most
frequently applied to small hats and toques,
/ though some of the latter have straight uu
crowns. fat at the top. So far, however
the toque is rather out of 1T: still 1t is to be
expected that they will be made freely for
the home market later on. as 1t Is not IN
the character of Parisians to confine them
selves exclusively to broad-brimmed hats
for town wear.

What to Eat.

Ice cream with hot chocolate.-A delicious
and simple dessert is composed of ice cream
and hot chocolate sauce. Break up the
chocolate, put it in agate saucepan and
melt over the fire, stirring it well until ii
is a thick, smooth paste. Have the ice
cream in brick form. Cut in slices and
when they on the plates put two or
three tahlespoonfulS of the chocolate sauce
over each slice.
Tongue Toastettes.-Keep the remains of
cold boiled tongue, hang it up until quite
dry and hard then CRATE as much as is re-
quisite. Put this into a saucepan with
enough cream to make it into a nice paste
add pepper and salt to taste Warm up
and serve on small squares of buttered
toast.
Cucumber soup.-Peel a large cucumber
and lay it in cold water for about half an
hour; then divide into pieces an inch thick
Place these in a stewpan with salt and pep

and sufficient veal or fowl stock to cover

then add sufficient milk to make the SOUP
of the right consistency. Just before serv-
ing add a beaten egg with a tablespoonful
or cream. Have ready dice of cucumber
which have previously been boiled in salted
water till tender, and serve in the soup.
Cheese custards.-Butter some small cups
thoroughly and cut some thin slices of
bread and butter into small dice, arranging
them in a pattern on the side of the cups
Scatter grated cheese-parmesan. if possible

Hygienic and Useful.

OF course, short skirts are both useful
and hygenic; but, because of it's more ele-
giant possibilities, the trained jupe still wins
the blue ribbon in the race for lasting
favor. Nevertheless. short skirts for prac-
teal street wear will still be seen in stuffs
which lend themselves to a dapper tailor
finish the difference from former styles
being that they will be less like sausage
skins and more like human garments. With
these will go tailor coats OF reasonable
length, with the still fashionable pun
sleeve modified in size, and the necks fin
ished with small turnover velvet collars
For such costumes colonial shoes of black
Russia leather with Blucher fassenings are
approved. though the feet which attempt
such shoes must be tolerably small to carry
them off properly.
The long coats of rain-proof silks fash
toned for automobile use are more captt-
waiting than all the other autumn things
put together. These. with the muffiing caps
fashioned to go with them, reveal such CO.
quettish possibilities that no one is sur
prised that the auto" fever has become so

every description will add lightness to the
fall hats. Hair nets will be worn with
them. They are useful for keeping stray

she wears her hair low on her neck They
come in every conceivable shade to suit
every c3iffure, and so melt into the hair as

The summer fad for the wearing of many
wells has created some unusual shades and
color combinations. They either match a
vivid color. Wash wells are a recent i'm
portation. Wash wells of crepe and chif-
fon' sounds alluring. The wells so adyer-
tised are certainly pretty. whatever their
condition after washing may be.
Chenille Dots.
Chenille plays an important part In fall
millinery, well as in veilings. The latest
things in the line of wells are those dotted
with chenille tufts. The chenille is soft
and fluffy, giving d softer effect to the face
than the velvet dots which were the rule IN
fashionable wells last spring. The tufts are
in every shade on white, black or gray net
of very open mesh variety.
A fall hat which is more dressy than
the average Is a combination of black
chenille braid, pale blue taffeta and lus
trous black cog feather. The hat sets
back a trif1e from the face and has low
broad crown and a moderately wide brim,
which curves and flares gracefully. The
crown is of the chenille braid, and the
brfm is covered with soft folds and flut-
irgs OF the blue taffeta, edged with an in

PAINTING LACE A FAD
Artistic Girls Find Color Adds to

From the Chicago Tribune
The fad for painting on lace gives a
chance to the girl who has more artistic
ideas than she has skill with her brush.
A certHin part of the design of the lace
is selected. and the color is lightly ap-
Piled. Care and lightness of touch are all
necessary for the amateur to succeed as
well as the artist. 1t is the easiest thing
in the world to bring OUT the roses and
violets and the different wreaths and gar
lands. which appear in the iaces which
adorn everything.

can be made much more beautiful by add

into very thin slices and again into small

some water cress, placing the ham and

the brim from the hair.
Another fall hat is of blue felt. The
stin. rolling brim is bound with inch-wide
folds of dull green velvet. Folds OF the
same velvet encircle the crown, while
cockade of mingled green and blue COG
feather Is set under the brim on the left
side.
Black and white chenille interming1ed IN
braid effect makes a smart roll brim sailor.
The chenille gives such richness that the
hat Is absolutely untrimmed, except for
two paste buckles. A huge curved one ac-
centuates the low crown in the front, and
a smaller one decorates the bandeau under
the brim on the left side.
Buckles of every sort are features OF
the fall millinery. although those of more
are of paste. of Jet, either dull or SPAR
king or in oxidized or gun-metal effects.
A Tan Picture Shape.
One of the new picture shapes in beaver
is in a tan, with the brim bound in SILK
of the same shade A shallow bandeau
covered with silk fits the head and lifts
the shape sufficiently to keep it from look
ing too heavy. The wide brim is bent
down over the hair in the back It's only
trimming is an Alsatian bow of three-inch-
wide velvet in a golden brown shade, set
off with a huge paste buckle The
contrast of the golden gleam of the buckle
and the warm brown of the velvet against
the soft tan beaver is a pretty one.
Alsatan bows of silk velvet make a
very acceptable trimming for the French
sailors in various shades of felt A French
sailor of fluffy white beaver has for its
only trimming a huge Alsatian bow of
royal blue velvet, set off with gun metal
buckle A tan felt Is trimmed with an
Alsatan bow of cream silk. Indeed, the
possible combinations of colors and ma
terials are innumerable.
A favorite way of trimming the French
sailors is to lay a long stiff feather or quill
fatty across the low crown. 1t gives a
distinctive touch to the hat.
Rolling Brim Sailor.
stylish French sailor with rolling
brim is of tan felt The fiat crown is en-
circled by folds of brown velvet. Folds of
soft Louisne silk in a cream, dotted with
brown, start under the brim on the right
