THE FASHIONABLE FICHU.

The fashionable fichu is thing of
beauty and JOY forever, and the
present style of dress, which has a
strong tendency toward the pic
turesque. lends itself particularly to
the pretty fichus which are now being
especially advocated by Dame Fash
ion.
A dainty example is affected by
means of a bouillonne of gathered net.
The net for the edge is simply cut in
strips and gathered each side so as
10 leave a double heading as a finish,
then stitched to the edges of the
fichU. Smart bows of ribbon in front
complete an inexpensive and stylish
fichu.
When fashioning fichus almost any
little odds and ends can be used, but
nevertheless it is we'll to be careful
not to have too many kinds OF mate
rial on one article. Nothing looks so
bad as an OLD piece of silk or ribbon
on a practically new fichu or fancy
cape. The difference is apparent even
to the most unframed eye, and the
general appearance of a toilet is
spoiled rather than improved by the
addition of a carelessly put together

PEACOCK POMPONS.

Never has the plumage of Juno's
bird been so much worn by women.
The eyes of the tail feathers. so
glaringly CONSPICUOUS, play no part in
the present mode. 1t is the side feath-

to such splendid advantage. The gold

seem to encrust these deeply. richly

SMART BOX COATS.

Box coats quite loose are among the
most fashionable for general wear and
are rendered both novel and smart by
the introduction of collar and cuffs of
contrasting material. An attractive
model is made of navy blue cheviot
with collar and cuffs of white cloth
stitched and piped with velvet and is
quite as satisfactory to the wearer as
it is stylish and effective. The fiat

LATEST FAD AMONG
WOMEN OF SOCIETY

Fuzzy dwarf monkeys on wires are
the latest fad among women Of the
fashionable set. These simian pets
made their debut at Sherry's, where
they were introduced TO society at
luncheon by the Countess Festetics and
Mrs. Hugh Tevis. Unlike the kind that
Harry Lehr entertained at a Newport
dinner party last year they can be
carried anywhere and accompanied the
Countess and Mrs. Tevis into the res
taurant.
They wriggled and squirmed like
some giant insects. for they hung from
elastic threads attached to the wOmen's
fingers. Every movement by these
leaders of fashion made the monkeys
dance and bob about, evidently to the
women's delight for they seemed as
much amused with their chenille pets
as children might be with the wriggly
spiders sold by the takers on Four
teenth street.
In fact, the new bidders for fame,
which are about four inches high. bore
a close resemblance to these street toys
and danced with the agility of grass
hoppers. When the Countess FestetiCs
extended her hand to Mrs. Tevis in the
hall at Sherry's and told her how glad
she was to Sc her and how pretty she
looked, the black monkey performed
acrobatic feats in the air, dangling
from it's elastic leash.
1t jumped and hoped. leaped and
fairly pranced, for it's spiral joints
seemed unalterably opposed to quiet,
and evidently animated it with the de
sire to perform all sorts of monkey
shines"
On the other hand, the one possessed
by Mrs Tevis was more sedate and dig
nified and was probably fatigued after
it's long journey from Europe with its
owner. for it carried tiny palm leaf
fan in one of it's front paws, which
claimed it's attention almost entirely.
Whenever Mrs. Tevis moved his mon
keyship used his fan. not possibly with
the coquettish grace of a Spanish senior
tia. but in quite fetching manner,
nevertheless He, too, was of black che
mile, as furry as a caterpillar. and stood
out in bold relief against the ecru ba-
tiste background of his fair owner S
gown.

ton on the side Of each name and when
a voter desires to vote he presses the
button and the vote. by internal ma

candidate. When voting for one eandi-
date all other names are locked. Every
vote that is cast for a candidate is
registered consecutively, so that at the
close of the polls the number Of votes
cast for each candidate appears on the
slip.

CLOTH COLLARS.

One sees a few cloth collars in the
shops, handsomely embroidered by

Deeper than these is a white cloth
