At ths Autumn Weddinr.

Empire styles will be a popular note for the fall wedding. as more than ore bridal gown is planned in short waist ed effect. and 1t is particularly pic turesque style for the briGemaids or maid of honor Of the tall and slender type IL also gives a pretty chance 10 substitute the little Juliet cap for the hat at an evening wedding This .s a little three-cornered contrivauce which fits in between the front and back of the hair and reaches from ear to ear. They are seen at many evening weddings and are especially pretty with the Juliet style of gown They may be made Of wired lace or silver cords sewed to tiny wires. or of Roman pearl beads strung in the same way. and are so simple that they can easily be home made. although being as yet an imported novelty they are expensive to buy At one wedding the maids wore long Italian gowns Of soft cream satin. with square neck and high puffed sleeves. and wore with them these little caps made in silver lace.

Wherewith shall the small boys and girls be clothed? This question is agi- tating mothers the land over; every day now the lads and lassies appear in public-have to put their best foot for ward.
 There are ready-made suits for both that some little home-sewing can make strong and neat. and these are coming more and more into demand. The homemade clothes wear much better, however, and the woman at all skill full with the needle prefers to make frocks and blouses herself.
 Let us first consider boys clothes, contrary to the susual custom. It sure ly is a question for congratulation on the part of the child himself that the more manly sailor suit is regaining it's old popularity; whilst knickers and Russian blouse continue in favor, the trousers and blouse emerge from the background. For the little kindergar ten boy there is a pretty model in black and white shepherds plaid, the insignia on the sleeve worked in scar let and the neCktie of this same gay hue. If a boy has reached the stage of graduation from the Kindergarten and Is going 10 a real school he proudly vf9ns a two-piece suit. not so very far from the kind father wears. To be sure the trousers are short, the coat rather sack-like. but there are real trousers, a boys coat
 The tie in favor now is the Windsor and we recommend a washable one as by far the best choice for every day; The silk will do for Sundays. Very good wash Windsors are 10 be had al small price. and there is a variety of eolOrs 10 select from We had called to our e--zice lately a neat sailor suit of dark -uee serge with collar and cuffs of dull .Lue linen, these detachable and there Gore practical 10 trim with white braid A boy likes a cap better than any other headgear. and by all means let him have a school cap: fl is iaunty and it stands hard usage.
 Now as to the girls school clothes. The very little ones should wear one piece frocks- as simple as possible. hat they may be dubbed often. The neat little model here shown is made on a lining which reaches to a little below the arm-hGIes. Over this the yoke is fitted. the collar. a novel shape with ' back and front is put on as finishing touch. The fr0ck may be made of cotton or wool. but either must be washable

raise it, keeping the arms out straight during the swing, until it is on level with the shoulders. Return, raise count ''one, two" for this.
 Second.-Raise the wand to the shoulder level, then extend the right arm straight out to the right. letting the wand follow it while held hori- zontal, the wand resting between right thumb and fingers. The left arm fol- lows until it's hand is against the chest. Lower to first position, raise lower, and so on. Then raise to the left, low CT, raise. Finally, give the exercise alternately in this way: Position, raise to right, lower; raise 10 left, lower, and so on. This is known as aiming to right and left.
 Third.-Raise the wand until it rests against the chest The elbows will naturally bend themselves to suit the need The wand should be raised near. ly to the throat
 Now teach some simple foot and leg exercise to be combined with these three motions, so that the circulation of the whole body may be stirred at once. Rising on the toes can be com bined benencially with any of them. Pointing the toes, first right, then left, can be used-this means placing the toe forward and holding the heels high Nrh he ko This. on account of the alternate right and left movement, accompanies the second we'll. The foot is returned 10 place when the wand is lowered.
 Fourth,-Wand in position. which means down, in front and horizontal Bend the trunk to the right as far as it will go. letting the waist do all the bending. Bend to left Alternate in rather slow counts.
 Fifth.-Raise the wand high above the head until the arms are stretched vertically to the utmost. Lower to po- sition Raise Continue.
 Sixth.-Raise the wand from position to level with the shoulders. holding 1t at arms length In front. Rise op toes, lower heels to floor, rise. and so on, all the time holding the wand in ths same position. Ihe arms will tire soon: do not keep up the work after weariness shows it's first symptom. In all the work watch carefully for this Children fatigue very readily in cne motion. although they can keep up the exercise for some time if it is contin. ually shifted from one part of the body to another.

 Such delicate fabrics, such filmy faces and such quantities used, such beautiful white evening coats, such beautiful hats. As we traversed the two short blocks where the windows tempted, we thought here, for woman kind, anyway, all the vanities of this earth were spread out.
 There were dressmakers and home dressmakers" in the admiring crowd, and it was interesting to listen to the talk. As we stood with several oth- CTS before a really attractive, as well as very expensive gown, we over heard: "Just little dabs of different kinds of goods put here and there!" The creator of the creation doubtless would have very much disliked her work of art thus summed up; but the speaker felt radiant that little dabs"

 could be made use of, economy and style need not be at war.
 But to get the foundation on which 10 put the "dabs" of trimming involves no small outlay, for the stuffs offered this season are of exceptional beauty and costliness. Of course they can be copied in much cheaper materials, and often acceptably, too; but the gowns at the opening displays are never on the inexpensive order. There are nu- merous real lace gowns, gowns with real lace in great. deep scallops, or yards and yards of medium width real lace. However, there is another fash onable trimming that gives as good m effect, if not better. and costs but | fraction as much as the lace: it is | substantial illusion or net, quite ex- tensively used for long draperies on the new dresses We noticed ore of palest gray-blue satin, white net hang ing in pleats from the shoulder to the hem of the gown. There was yoke of pale gray-blue satin decked with great rose-tipped flowers of velvet applique; the whole a misty, soft col bring. lighted by the rose suffuson.
 Right here we may say that pink is appearing as it has not had a chance before in years, it is in excellent style.
