Anybody can make a bag And SO girl
who hasn't a vestige of talent for hats
can make for herself the newest thing in
automobile millinery, which is nothing
more nor less than an inverted bag OF
cream colored pongee.
Except that it has little jack O. lantern
openings for the mouth and eyes, it is
made as much like the old fashioned laun-
dry bag as possible-the kind that had
rattan at the top to keep it open-only
the reed Is replaced by a. shir string that
draws UP around the neck.
The price attached to this little novelty,
Which Is claimed by automobiles to be
the best thing for long rides yet invented,
Is luxurious one, as it Is impossible to
buy it ready made for less than So. while
the material for making it may b. pur
chased for just 80 cents. This includes a
yard Of pongee, a third Of yard Of light
crinoline for the crown piece, three by
nine strip Of mica for the window and
two yards Of narrow ribbon the color Of
the pongee.
A little piece Of net or point de'esprit
for a dust filter is doubled and set into
an opening two inches square, which Is
cut just above the shir string, for the
mouth Directly above this the win
dow" Of mica is set in, the opening being
stitched around with a fine hem. Face
this opening on the wrong side with a
piece Of the ribbon, stitching it at the
back edge only. Slip the mica in between
these two edges, sewing it to the ribbon
by means Of little holes made around it's
edge at even distances.
The whole bag is only: seventeen inches
deep and Is attached to round crown
two inches in diameter. Cut the crown
and lining of the crinoiine, and stitch the
pongee around the edge, turning it in well
underneath. Cut and hem another piece
a couple of inches smaller and fasten to
the top. This gives it finish and more
| the effect Of a crown Of a hat.
The bag is made just wide enough to
sew around the edge of the crown without
fullness except for an inch extra, which
Is laid in little plait at the back to give
it play. A snug fitting hat or cap should
| be worn underneath.
According to the Paris correspondents

tume for women is a big bag with two

and black satin Of chiffon weight, glossy
and soft, will both be in style, as will all
the intermediate grades Of satin.
Cross stitch has invaded even the new
bathing shoes, and some very attractive
sandals seen at the shore are finished in
this way. The canvas shoe is, of course
the best subject for the work, and the
stitchery must be in fast colors.
Many novelties are found in play suits
for children. JEAN holland and other
sturdy, old-fashioned goods are employed
for these, as well as khaki, linen, pique,
etc. In addition to the farmer SUITS
which are among the simplest and most
popular, there are Jap" and Indian rigs,
cowboy outfits and soldier costumes.
1t is to be very sparkling fall. The
gowns will fairly glisten with jets and
with brilliant tissues Of all kinds. Bands
Of passementerie, with every inch glow
ing with mock gems will be used on din
ner gowns and for the street there will
be a dash of iridescent beads in the stock,
the belt and wide girdle.
Golden brown and coral red are nice
combination and if one is clever one will
look out for it this fall, for it is becom-
ing one. There are several pretty color
harmonies, one of which is green and
white.
Whether 1t is hint Of the coming crin-z
cline or not, only time can tell, but there
is no doubt that many Of the leading cou-
turieres of both Paris and New York are.
running either a narrow princess hair
cloth or in many instances three or more
rows of the featherbone cording in the
petticoat or drop skirt for extension pur
pose.
The old fashion Of wearing nets on the
hair is with us once again. The nets
which are being worn this summer are
coarse and are bound with a tiny piece OF
silk braid so narrow that ii Is hardly
perceptible. The net is fastened with a
large bow of ribbon at the back of the
neck and this ribbon should be the same
color as the gown.
Now that our best-dressed women have
adopted the fashion of wearing elbow
sleeves, there is a great demand for
bracelets, and the jewelers. have brought
out a novelty that the leaders of fashion
have taken up with great enthusiasm.
This is bracelet hung with charms, in
the shape of marvellous little replicas Of
famous statuary, animals, insects, birds,
in precious stones, and wonderful little
collection of mummies are supposed to be
lucky as charms.

woman may walk about wearing the
garment easily and can sit comfortably in
an automobile, defying the weather. An
other advantage is when the wearer de-
scends from the automobile she has only
to undo strap and the bag falls off and
she may appear as the wearer Of an ele-
giant walking gown or even a ball dress.
The material Of which this extraordinary
costume is made varies with the season.
For the summer it is linen, for the winter
fur, preferably sealskin.
A new glove has been invented to ac-
company the costume having only three
fingers. The thumb and index finger oc-
cupy one cavity, the middle finger the Sec
ond cavity the fourth and fifth fingers
the third. The theory is. the fewer the
fingers for the glove the greater the
warmth Fashionable Parisiennes, like the
Duchess of Rohan and Countess de Tired
bern, have appeared wearing the automo-
bile bag, and the American Duchess of
Manchester has ordered bags for her auto
mobile wardrobe.
