CALLING Gowns and Necklaces.

An unusually chic calling gown Of
dark green taffeta showed the 1880
mode in its quaintest form; with puff
ings and insertions, long shoulder eff
feet and full sleeves, to say nothing
Of the full skirt and small waist, the
ensemble was all one could desire. A

and knots of ribbon velvet of paler
shade for contrast; the green para
sol was a most fitting accompaniment
to this particular costume.

Nice For Toilet.

Hand-embroidered towels are the
latest vogue in towels for actual use
where something specially nice is de

plain, fine huckaback or other fine
towel fabric taking the place of
damask or other decoration. A deep
hemstiched hem is the usual finish,
and one end only is embroidered.
Decorative towels, for decorative pur.
poses only, come with deep-knotted
fringes elaborate borders of drawn
work, medallions of old Venetian or
other decorative laces. And Italian
macrame towels have deep fringes
very deliberately and artistically
knOtted.

Macrame lace is one Of the newest
features for trimming linen and can
vas gowns Those who remember the
time that this fish cord was used to
make tides" table mats and sCarfs
are rather amused at the temperance
of seine Irvine in heavily CrOCheted
laces. MaCrame is wonderfully smart
and even if it is made Of cord with a
crochet hook and looks coarse enough
to have consumed very little time in
the making, at present it is quite the
most fashionable trimming that any
woman could choose for certain
gowns 1t would be so easy to GRO
Chef enough for a gown that it seems
a pity someone doesn't design a few
simple patterns that might readily be
copied. The prettiest pieces used so
far have deep rounded points with
raised effects, and scallOps around the
entire edge in preference to the fringe
that was so fashionable last year.
Fringe, however. properly belongs to
the macrame variety, so one may
choose it with perfect prOpriety. Very
deep collars of this heavy lace will
be worn in the early spring. and as
they are adjustable they will answer
for lightweight wraps as well.
