FOlBLEs OF FASHION

WHO LEAD STYLES.
Pink Crepe Tea Gown = Popular New
York costume-Pretty Evening
Waist Of Pale Blue Louisine-New
Idea In Irish Lace.
Season Of Ribbons.


Almost every season Is hcralded as
. season OF ribbons. and yet this one,
more than most, deserves the title.
Ribbons are used on every sort OF
gown, in every sort OF way. All
widths and uses. from the tiny baby
width to the widest that the looms
produce. A pretty employment OF
two-inch wide ribbon. though hardly
novel one, is a twisted bow knot de-
sign on the deep founce Of lace
gown. The ribbon may be pinned on
according to fancy. and then the
dress turned wrong side out. and the
trimming tackled in place.
Ribbon embroidery is seen on some
Of the latest evening dresses. and may
be easily worked on a foundation OF
either silk or lace. Lace is best for
the tyro. both because the loose
meshes OF the lace make the embroid-
ering easier, and because II the lace
has a flower pattern, beautiful ef-
feet may be obtained by simply fol-
lowing the outline Of the pattern Tor
the embroidery design. The secret OF
the beauty OF the work lies In the
tactful choice OF colors. and not many
shades should be used.
Again. ribbons are used as lacings.
as elaborate stock collars, as bindings.
shirred ruflleA as meshes. and for the
omnipresent and ever beautiful wide
crush girdles.

LIVES BY PAINTING BUTTONS.
A Touch Of Luxury Which a Young
Woman Finds II Profitable to Supply.

Iouen OF luSury "hieh a young
Woman Finds II Profitable to Supply.
There is always demand for hand
painted buttons for women's gowns,
and one young woman in Sew York
is making a comfortable living by
painting buttons Of all shapes and
sizes. Just now she is rushed with
orders. She has many private custom
ers, and when she has no demand
from these she keeps busy anyway.
No matter how many painted buttons
she has she finds no trouble in dis
posing of them.
Dressmakers take all she brings to
them. but do not pay nearly as we'll as
her own customers. However, the
prices she receives, even from dress
makers, would keep her comfortably
and supply all her Tailts-there Is
such demand for her work.
The young woman has been paint
ing buttons for several years. She
does her work at home. She paints
only flowers on the buttons, but where
they are wanted for a gown OF a par
ticular color she makes her work cor
respond with the color Of the gown.

Jockey who he knew would take all

dred yards from the finish on this

hole, such as often is seen on coun-

There had been SO many falls at this

manded his rider to make his most
desperate move right at this point
and. sure enough. when the others
took a wrap before reaching the gully.

mind. went into the secretary's Office
to collect the purse.
"Tll have 10 send out for the morey.
