with a very little engraving on the hands.
The ring is neat and dainty and the idea

a precious stone, upon which was engraved

very Scotch looking suits are worn. A
Scotch suiting is the best material, using
the plaid under side for the kilt skirt and
the dull brown side for the double breasted

The gymnasium suit this winter is but

The blouse is very full, broad-shouldered
and without collar. the fulness gathered
on elastic or ribbon.
The bloomers are full and fastened on
elastic bands above the knee. And this

and always to the amazed dismay Of her
