Sleeves have always played an i'm
portant part in smart dressing but
hardly ever before have they been a
matter of greater thought than at pres
ent The main characteristic of all
sleeves now is the dropping shoulder
line which is obtained in an infinite
number of ways.
The long shoulder seam of the regu-
lar 1880 period is not becoming to many
figures as it has tendency to make
the shoulders appear round, which is
naturally result not to be desired,
therefore the actual seam stops at the
extreme outer edge Of the shoulder in
most cases. and the longer dropping
effect is obtained by trimming the up
per part of the sleeve in the same way
as the yoke portion of the bodice, or
by capes, berthas, fichus, epaulettes,
etc.
Another point to be considered in
the present style of sleeve is the cuff,
which is close fitting and reaches in
many cases nearly to the elbow, where
the greatest amount of fullness now is.
In the Bishop sleeve this puff Is ,ac-
complished more by shaping than by

cause 1 couldn't buy them. Of course
any drug store has them for 8 cents

With that she drew forth a chamois

Her friend laughed "That is all you
Will have to explain to thousands Of
business women in order to make your
fortune" she said. Make me some Of
them, and I will take them down to the
office tomorrow and sell them for you.''
1t was an easy thing to do. The
woman had simply to buy large piece
of really good chamois, cut 1t into
pieces about six by eight, and scallop
the edges prettily with a pair of scis-
sors. She found that by selling each at
10 cents she would clear over half
profit on the price Of the material, and
would be charging the purchasers
scarcely more than they would pay in
buying the same quality of chamois in
small quantities for themselves.
After she had filled many orders pro-
cured through her friend, she started
out with samples of her wares through
the office buildings. She generally sue
ceeded in seeing one woman who was
willing to keep a sample to show
among her companions at luncheon hour.

silks used but flower garnitures are en-
ployed in many delightful ways. One
charming method of trimming fluffy tulle
evening frocks is with long garlands of
small satin or chiffon rosebuds These
may be bought by the yard at the good
shops in light colors and also in gold and
silver. For black tulle gown nothing
could be more lovely than these tiny gold
roses.
The gown illustrated is of old ivory
white brocade figured with dull pinks
and greens. 1t is made with a full round
skirt which, however, is gored so that
the fullness is not excessive about the
hips, and long pointed bodice, which
the straight front corset has now made
possible. 1t is trimmed with ruff1es of
cream white chiffon edged with pink baby
velvet ribbon, and the decolletage, cut
low and well off the shoulders. is bordered
by beautifully shaded pink and roses.
-Four pink velvet bows of graduated
sizes and with rhinestone buckles in their
certers trim the front OF the bodice and

plaits or gathers, but in other styles the
fullness is formed by draping, tucks
or shirring, which are covered by the
cuffs. Besides the puffed sleeves now
in vogue many tight fitting elbow
sleeves are worn on evening or house
gowns. These are made plain when of
handsome materials, or are formed of
tiny horizontal puffs If of a soft or
diaphanous fabric and are finished in
both cases with deep lace ruff1es. A
striking sleeve of novel cut is shown
on the gown Illustrated.
This costume is of champagne COL
ored cloth and is made with full skirt
tucked on the sides and trimmed with
q front panel of all-over coffee colored
lace bordered by Bulgarian embroidered
bands of delicate tones. The bodice has
corresponding front of lace bordered
by oddly shaped revers of cloth which
broadens out at the shoulders and falls
over the sleeves to the elbow and are
edged all around by the Bulgarian en-
broidery. The sleeves are of medium
size puffs finished with deep cuffs Of
lace and the belt is of coral panne vel

there was not one complaint concerning
our work.
"Of course, like every other business
that springs up in day, this one was
comparatively short lived. The real
rush lasted about five years, though
even now, after nine, considerable
number of orders come in. But, though
it has served it's term of usefulness in
one locality, [ feel sure that many

Marie. Antoinette designs have been re-
Vived this season in almost every depart
ment OF dress, from handsome silks to
dainty buttons and buckles, with which
gowns of nearly every description are
now so profusely ornamented. Among
these smaller articles are many marvel
ously beautiful designs of filigree silver
or gold set with rhinestones that rival
in brilliancy diamonds of the first quail
1ty. An exquisite set of buttons was seen
lately on a dove gray panne velvet gown
that trimmed it to perfection. They were
made of burnt gold shaded with peacock
green tones and were set with rhine
stones and tiny emeralds. To complete
the set was buckle of two peacocks in
all their gorgeous colors and with rhine
stone wings and tiny emerald eyes. Such
ornaments as these are really works of
art and must be paid for accordingly,
but there are numerous inexpensive but
tons in the market suitable for both
coats and gowns that are almost as
beautiful.
