What MiIady Must Wear II She
Would Appear In the New
est styles.

phib waists VI Iducy NeINetS, vel
veteens and cordVroys are fashion
able. Some are made simply, the only
trimming being fancy buttons; 9TH
ers are finished with passementeries,
lace and MORE silk in bands or pipings,
says a fashion authority. These have
SNOWY buttons, too.
Robes are tempting in lightweight
cloths, silks and stenciled cloth. Some
are beautifully embroidered all over
or at the bottom Of the skirt and front
of waist and sleeves. Two-toned cloths
are revived for these, and make up pref
tily when trimmed with some rich pas
sementerie or velvet.
The newest tea gowns are in empire
fashion, with accordion plated skirts
beautifully trimmed with lace medal
lions and insertions. They are finished
with handsome collars of lace or en-
broidery, lace frills edging the collars.
Sleeves are elbow length. finished
with several lace rufles. Light colors
prevail for teagowns and white is much
favored.
The fancy for fruit as a decoration
has extended to embroideries on din
ner and reception gowns. An illustra-
tive gown of black point d'esprit made
over white satin was trimmed with
embroidery in the form of cherries and
their leaves, and had cherry red belt
and shoulder straps. Another of pearl
gray satin and tulle was embroidered
with green grapes. Black grapes were
put on a delicate cream lace gown.
On sheer gowns are put hand-work
embroidery and lace and winter gowns
repeat those Of summe in these trim
mings. Cord brsiding is put on the
thinnest gauzes with good results and
the silver lace that has been employed
so much is combined with white lace.
Tiny blossoms are set on dainty fab
RIGS in large rings and scarfs of lace,
tulle or satin are threaded through
them. Scarfs are also drawn through
cloth cut in latticcs or circles for trim
ming cloth or wool gowns.
Fla trimming is standard for fall
and winter hats. These are a trife
larger than those worn during sum
mer. and feathers, breasts, wings and
luills are the trimmings. Beaver
hats will be fashionable and various
tinted v~elvets are submitted. Hats of
silk plush so far are in delicate shades.
Black, green, reds, browns and blues
are well represented. Blue and green
combinations will be numerous and
rome new fancies in these shades are
stunning, Coque feathers are revived
in many pretty colorings. Birds are
wonderfully tinted, as are breasts.
Quilts are in black and green combina-
tions. The rolled brim sailor in all
shades Of felt and beaver will be fash
ionable for general wear.
Hardly a new skirt is lined-among
the handsome ones, that is. All have
instead the drop skirt of taffeta. This
skirt of taffeta is cut like the outer
skirt, exactly and finished with a
plating or a rufie with a plating
along the edge. We say the handsome
ones advisedly. When the outside is
not OF, good, firm cloth a lining is nee
essary to help keep it in shape, and
when the lining is of some cheap cot
on stuff the wearer certainly would
not want il hanging loose. 1t has one
thing to recommend it especially.
When ii is worn out IL may be cast
aside. In the case of a worn-out lin
ing made in a skirt one must have the
whole thing taken apart to refine it.
and this is about as much trouble as
making a new skirt, With the drop
skirt there's only to buy another. 1t
is to he hoped our stores will keep them
ready made.
Lost JeweIry In Laundry.
Before sending linen to the laun-
dry look every piece owe for forgot
ten collar buttons and stick pins. The
lauudries are repositories of more
lost articles of this description thao
is dreamed OF by the public. Every
day quantities of gold aud ieweled ar
ticles are picked up. Some of them
are identified and restored, but more
are simply pocketed by the finders.
Money was frequently found in the
af washable waistcoats worn
