Miss Dorothea Fales Wardwells gown at
her coming reception was white satin crepe
de chine. having a tunic effect skirt owing
to the way in which the lace insertions
were arranged. These insertions were about
an inch and a quarter wide and divided the
skirt first up and down, and then crosswise.
The bodice had lace yoke. and outlin-
ing the yoke was a row of silver nailheads
in white satin ffnish and the square of lace
swinging loosely away from the bodice but
attached by the nailheads and hanging al
most to the girdle, was bordered with a
row of silver drops. of silver cords and
drops of the same satin finish. Similar
cords and round drops were arranged In
the lace of the elbow sleeves.
Miss Louise Stafford Glider, the debutante
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William Howard
Glider, and niece of Richard Watson Glider,
wore at her coming-out reception a white
chiffon cloth gown trimmed with baby
Irish lace embroidered In seed pearls. The
bodice had coat effect, and from the
coat back two long sash ends of white
chiffon satin extended nearly to the bot
tom of the round train.
Another and very simple gown is pale
yellow chiffon cloth. 1t has sunray
plated skirt. the low cut corsage is also
accordion plated and also the elbow
sleeves The girile is made of folds of
cloth. and a band of gold cloth is set on
around the top of the corsage, holding the
plaitings down: similar bands are attached
to the sleeves. These bands are edged
with ruchings of yellow tulle, inside of
which are folds of white tuile and a
spray of cloth of gold roses is fastened on
the corsage. These flowers are yellow dali
sizes with black jet centers. As the wearer
has black hair and eyes the effect Will be
striking.

are two worth describing. One Is
a little wreath formed Of seven roses of
cloth OF silver, set close together on fiex-

pinned TO the side of the couture; from
this ring rises one short white ostrich plume
that curls over and down nearly 10 the
roses at the front
TIE other ornament Is a large gold rose,
from which rises single wide white quill
veined with gold. Tendrils-or whatever
they may be-of ostrich tips are fastened
to the edge of the stiff quill. each tiny
curling tendril being caught to the Quill
by drop of dull gold the tendrils form
ing a curling fringe.
An exquisite frock for one of the Decem-
Der brides Is the combination OF chiffon
cloth and chiffon and tulle in pale blue and
delicate mauve. The foundation of the
frock Is chiffon cloth in a deeper shade Of
blue than the shade OF mauve in the chiffon

Ihe RainN Day.

A well known artist recently received
a letter from a chap who has regularly
made it practice to borrow money
of him. In this letter the chap who is
always in financial difficulties surprls-
ed his correspondent by saying:
.'This time | have decided to reverse
the usual order Of things, and instead
of borrowing from you, ! inclose here
with $50. which l am going to ask that
you will lay aside for me for a rainy
day"
But the artist couldn't find any re-
mittance in the letter. He searched for
it on the floor, under the table-in fact
everywhere he thought he might have
dropped it, Then quite accidentally he
turned over the sheet on which the let
ter was written and discovered this
postscript:
