SPRING BRIDAL FINERY.

figures are rarely elderly in style, and the
old fashion of wearing mother colors'' is
done away with. Even mother" textures,
as the old satins, silks and velvets might
be called, are to a great degree superseded
at the wedding by fabrics such as the
daughter herself wears. A mother gown
for an April wedding was enchantingly fes-
tive. Made of deep yellow batiste, in which
a superb embroidery of the same was lavish
ly inserted, the wide girdle of soft MESA
line silk was in faint tones of violet, pale
blue and green, which rainbow combination
of tints is much seen. The hat was of pale
blue panama, bent into shape, and 1t was
trimmed with scarfs of messaline in SINH
lar tints: and the cream satin shoes showed
the rainbow hues in huge round rosettes.
Another youthful mother gown was tat
feta ecaille (the pale yellow seen in tortoise
shelD, with a superb lace in the same tint.
This was in princess form, and the smart
lace toque which would accompany it
showed tulle twists and ostrich feathers in
the palest baby blue! But all this new pref
tiness for the brides mother means only
one thing-that maids are now being mar
ried at an incredibly early age. Soft often
happens that the severe frock worn by
girl of eighteen makes her by comparison
with her mammals jauntiness seem quite
the same age; and now that fashions are

EASTER HABERDASHERY.
What Men Will Don for the Fashion
able Promenade,

oO1C 34OLiCllduOs
Womankind no longer reigns alone in the
parade of fine raiment which marks Easter
day. Every city and hamlet has its boule-
ward which is gay with pedestrians before
and after service on this great Sunday, and
men in their own peculiar way are as par
ticular about Easter raiment as their sis
tiers, wives and sweethearts.
The wife who wishes to buy a novelty for
her husband TO wear on the Easter parade
and the mother who may be looking for
something new in gloves will find that
many of the colorings considered correct
for women,s wear have invaded the haber-
dashery though in slightly subdued tones.
The very conservative man clings to the
pure white linen for church, and in spite of
fashions decree that cuffs will be detached
he continues to have his cuffs part of his
shirt His more daring brother employs
colored shirt with white collars and cuffs.
and though only an inch SO of the shirt
shows, special consideration is given to its
tones. Vivid colorings are decidedly in evil
dence, even figures a white ground no
longer showing the delicate shades which
men have favored so long. Bosoms of col
ored shirts are finely tucked, and the latest
models have three buttonholes down the
front for fancy studs. The latter come In
sets to match cuff links, and one we'll
dressed bachelor has a set of links and
studs to match each shirt. Especially
smart is set having an amethyst cats-eye
set In gold for wear with white shirt fg-
ured with tiny lavender feur-de-ns.
Ties and neck scarfs show a decided
though harmonious contrast to the shirt,
and the colorings are so exquisite that the
haberdasher must have designs on feminine
as we'll as masculine pocketbooks. A bro
caded silk scarf In superb amethyst shade
is worn with a deep blue shirt. Sage green

bertha and sleeve frills, or a drapery Of
tulle and orange blossoms. Though brides
in other countries are apt to be more fussy,
the French exaction for a high neck and
long sleeves is observed generally every
where else.
The fad of the hour for transparent ma
terials brings lace into the field, and never
were lace gowns more ravishing than those
now designed for bridal use Here. too, is
another innovation, for instead of orange
blossoms the tilmy costumes are sometimes
garlanded with trails of tiny white roses
with green foliage. These blooms are
called, by courtesy, bride roses, but they
are merely the close dwarf flowers which
have become stylish in the millinery world
Sometimes they are put on skirt in
wreaths, tied at the top with the ribbon
bow knots OF the Louis periods. An altar
gown showing this treatment has a fiounced
petticoat of Lierre lace and a train and
bodice of ivory satin. In the bertha of the
bodice and through the trimming of the
elbow sleeves bands of the tiny flowers are
placed effectively.

With such menu one housemaid for re-
moving the sofled dishes Is quite sufficient,

the ices and salad, while a group Of pretty
girl friends may assist in serving the guests
as they come into the dining room.

NEW YORK, April 13, 1905.
Trousseaux for spring brides show many
novelties. A vast number of the wedding
gowns are made of the most gauzy fabrics,
which replace the heavy satins once used
almost exclusively. A high silky finish that
is quite silvery is a feature of some of the
most popular textiles, which include gauzes
of every sort, as well as such thin silks as
messalne and soft-finished taffetas. These
delicate materials respond readily to the
styles of the hour, the draped bodices,
shrred sleeves and daintily trimmed skirts.

The majority of the imported gowns are
still of satin, made in the staid way ap-

skirt more frequently plain than trimmed,
and the bodice showing at most a lace

When Washing Knives.

Never put the handles into the water.
for the handle would be discolored and
the blade loosened. Instead dip each
blade into hot water with soda and dry
1t at once. Another method is to have
large tin or basin with tin or wooden
cover. In the cover Sits are cut, through
which the blades OF the knives pass to
the water, while their handles rest on
the top.
