If the girdle is right, the gown is
pretty sure to be.
1t will be all right to touch your
black gown up with bright-colored COL
lar and cuffs.
Braiding is again in vogue, and is
conspicuous on many of the new au-
tumn costumes.
Long kid gloves with lace insets are
nice, if you care to pay So a pair for
your hand coverings.
Besides the fichu proper, every one
who can afford it owns a collection Of
scarfs to wear over the shoulders.
The newest thing in leather purses
is shaped like fan and worn on q
long chain around the neck.
Small curls, with the point of adj
herence carefully concealed in the WE'LL
dressed coiffure, are extremely fash
ionable.
There is delightful new chiffon veil,
bordered with applied velvet leaves in,
the red, brown and yellow tints Of
autumn.
/ The woman who desires to be fash
ionably gowned on a small. income
will find safe investment in black
broadcloth.
More curious than pretty are some
new shirt waist sets, wherein each but
ton represents black cats head with
green eyes.
Melted colors is the most descriptive
term to apply to the new plaids. in
which several soft shades run together
imperceptibly.
Coral jewelry is much to the fore.
The dark silk shirt waist suit is en-
livened by belt buckles and studs Of
coral, and often the hatpin tops are
of coral and necklace of the same red
hue is worn.

Bring ont Your old Lace.

Collectors of old lace will have an op.
oortunity to display their "real' old
fabrics this fall, for there seems to be
an abundance OF lace on almost all
the new costumes. Heirlooms are be-
ing ruthlessly slashed into, and one
ressmaker absolutely refused to
handle old lace unless she could cut il
as she chose, ing that even the
handsome laces are far from decora-
tive ii clumsily arranged. Long lace
Empire coats are among the seasons
fads. Some of them are lined with
chiffon and adorned with ermine col
lars. The color is about the only
warm thing about th1m, and, as they
are being designed for winter wear. it
looks as if pride would shiver this win
ter.

Styles in Footgear.

Speaking of footgear reminds me
that the openwork stocking is ode
mode the plain stocking has taken
.ts place. From an esthetic point of
view there is nothing more attractive
than plain silk stocking molding a
dainty instep and ankle. Whether in
black, white, light tan or gray, with
shoes to match. they are the stock
ngs that a fastidious woman affects.
For the fashionable satin shoe for
evening wear the new stockings are
Inserted with small lace medallions in
stead of the width of Chantilly, either
black or white, that was so general.
With pretty gowns it is indispensable
hat shoes as we'll as hats and gloves
shall correspond in tone. The smart
lew shoe is made OF thin glove kid and
.astens mysteriously at the side. This
model does not show pretty foot to
advantage as do the shoes opening in
'front.', still it's a fad. A pair of lilac
Kid glove shoes were very fetching
With buckles in brilliants fastened to
black patent leather straps. Our
grandmothers wore colored shoes and
used to send to the shoemaker a piece
Of silk or satin from each new skirt.
The elegantes Of to-day are equally
anxious to match the color of their
shoes and dresses, but they have kid
dyed to harmonic with the samples OF
material they send. This it appears is
not take the dye as easily as the
coarSer kid.

What the Pig VIII Appreciate.

Some farmers thoroughly believe the
pig to be the scavenger about the
farm; but let it be understood that he
appreciates a good healthy meal of
sound food and will prove it to you
when it comes marketing time.
