Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1904-01-09

A rose colored suede belt confines the
bodice and is clasped with a big coral
buckle. Matching the gown is an ele-
CANT moleskin coat lined with rose
colored panne velvet, over which falls
low cape of mole-skin.
The daintiest features of dresses
made in diaphanous materials for aft
ernoon and evening wear are their
girdles. sashes and other waist trim
mings. These have never been so var
led and delightfully."- chic as this sea-
son. Dresden and Vatican ribbons
are mostly used. Stout figures look
we'll in the corsage bands that support
the figure while curving into lines that
often lend grave and comeliness where
there is none. Sylph-like forms requir-
ing perfect freedom with certain air
of abandon for their greatest effect are
held in slightly with soft belts. 1t Is
no longer the smart thing to tie belt
in a bow at the back, neither are Tong
streamers worn. The Ascot sash is the
newest creation and very pretty. 1t
consists of a band of Dresden or Wat
teau ribbon brought around the waist
and tied in four-in hand knot at the
back. Instead of hanging straight and
stiff. the ends of the ribbon are
pinched up and finished with silk tas-
sells or looped through embroidered silk
rings.
There is no diminution of the shell
craze and pelerines made of camers
hair or embroidered silk shawls are
considered very desirable to include in
ones wardrobe. The quaintest of these
draperies are finished with netted
fringes. Oftentimes shawls are used to
trim one decolletage, one on each Shout
der. the painted ends crossing back and
front and tucking into a primly plated
high girdle.
The jewelled dingle bangles that the
fashionable woman wears nowadays
are wonderful to behold. The holiday
season only increased the fad. After
all it Is not unlovely if not spoiled by
an incongruous collection of cheap bau-
bes
The long neck chains of fine gold and
silver set with small Jewels are pretty
If imitation stones are worn, they
should be duplicates of turquoses or
cirals, because counterfeit brilliants
are considered abominable taste. Even
pearls are not advisable unless they are
real, for they soon lose thes lustre and
gives ones pewelry and "all but" ap-
pearance.
Earnings and bracelets are worn to
greater extent this winter than in many
years past That is one sees them dec

this is retained because it affords a

But wild roses with diamond and pearl

sired.
In the matter of hatpins the shops
are showing extra long pins with hand
somely jewelled heads that are stabbed
in at the back and run all the way
through the coil of hair. then pinned
through the hat at the front. In cases
where the hair is worn low, an elastic
band is used to keep the hat on the
head and the hat pins are used merely
