NEW RIBBONS FOR WINTER
They Combine the Softness and Sheer
ness of the Broad Silk
Weaves.

The new ribbons have taken to them
selves all the softness and sheerness
that characterize the broad silk weaves,
and the printings in the dull and faded
tones that are seen on the expensive
crepes, gauzes and chi1fons are all re-
produced in the ribbons. In fact, some
houses are making a special feature OF
broad silks and ribbons in the very same
designs, and delightful note of color
contrast is introduced in the latter in
the way Of borderings.
Ribbons broad and ribbons narrow, as
we'll as those of medium width, all find
novel applications upon the dressy
gowns. With printed centers the bor-
ders are often in two shades of q con-
trasting color, and these borders are in
green, rose, blue, brown and violet, &C.
cording to the color scheme OF the gown.
Some exquisite ribbons are shown with
q metallic gold border, just the same
weave as appears on the military uni
forms of those of nigh rank, and q
beautiful effect is thus given to q one
color gown.

HISTORY OF THE MUFF.
A Decree Of the French King Once De-
termined the Colors and
the Furs.

? do you know that the color of mum
once betokened the rank of the wear
err" said a furrier the other day as he
stroked q beautiful sealskin mum.
when the mum first came to us from
France, in the days of Charles TX, no
lady could have worn this fur, for black
was decreed by the king to be the badge
of the common people, and the court fol-
lowers were restricted to the colors.
Muffs have gone through more styles
than it would seem possible to invent
for such simple article of convenience.
They have been long and narrow and,
again, large and round. One Of the
most curious styles was that of Louis
XIV, called the 'chiens mauchons,' be-
cause they were made to convey little
dogs in.
1.-The muff when first introduced was
the exclusive property of the nobility.
These NUNS were very small and con-
sisted of single piece Of velvet, bro
cade or silk lined with fur and the open
ings fastened with rich jewels. Such
arrangements came in during the early
part of the seventeenth century.
1--WE now associate the muff only with
cold weather, but in the old days it was
a regular part of woman's dress and
was carried at all times"

BRIGHT RUSSIAN GIRL.
shows Wonderful Aptitude for Learn
ing ana Has Entered Mt.
Holyoke College.

Tyna Kelman, q Russian Hebrew i'm
migrants daughter, just IA years old,
who fovr years sgo became a student In
q West End school in Boston, has en-
tered Mount Holyoke college better
equipped for success in her student life
than the average college girl.
Arriving from Russia in 1900, Miss
Holman not only mastered the English
| language, of which she was entisely
ignorant, but became so proficient In it
and all other branches of study that
within four years she passed through
the primary and grammar grades, and
last June was graduated from the Girls
| Latin school in Boston at the head Of
her class. -
Because she knew nothing about Eng
lish, says the New York Sun, Miss Hell
man at first was compelled to enter q
primary school with children only one
third her age, but with the aid of Rus
sian and English dictionaries, which
her father provided her with, she swift
ly forged ahead, passing through the
primary and grammar grades in a sfu-
gle year, for she had acquired in Rivsia
. good foundation for future learning.
From the Wells grammar school, in
the West End, Boston, she was grad
uated in 1901 and finished the four year
course in the Girls Latin school in three
years, an uncommon feat. Intending
at first to go to Boston university for
year, she took the entry examinations,
passing six of the required studies with
honors, but subsequently she decided to
take the full course at Mount Holyoke
college. Even now she has made an i'm
preston with her instructors, and her
friends believe that she will win fresh
laurels during her college life.
Miss Helman's father keeps little
grocery store at 1913 Marion street, East
Boston. She is the eldest of six chill
dren and is a born student, mastering
the most difficult studies with the great
est ease. She is tall and graceful, of the
brunette type, with swapping black eyes
and q countenance which fairly shines
with intellectually. -

THE STYLE IN PERFUMES.
To Be Up-to-Date You Must Be VAxY
Careful in Their So
lection.


With respect to perfumes, as in most
other things, Dame Fashions particu'
lar whim just now is consistency. In
England, where most American fash.
ions have their birth-for Paris fash.
ions usually come to US by way Of
London, their earlier market-"Royal
Shamrock" is the rage just now.
But whatever your particular fancy
may be. having made your choice. you
must abide by it, at any rate for the
day, which, in this tickle age. is quite
long time.
Everything about you, your toilet
water and soap, your boudoir, your
gowns. your notepaper and envelopes,
even your lap dog, must be perfumed
accordingly. Indeed, if you want to
display your complete subservience to
Fashions autocratic DEGREES, you will
hang a locket containing the selected
perfume on your chain. The only con-
ISOLATION you have is that tomorrow
you may change your policy, and shed
delicate perfume of, say, altar Of
roses, around you.
To some this fashion may seem rath-
er irksome, says the New York World.
Many women like to change their
scents with their frocks, but they
must take heart of grace in the
thought that things might be much
worse, and probably will be some
day.
Consistency has at least one merit
1T is easy. For instance, you de-
eide that tomorrow shall be "Sham-
rock" day; there is, at any rate. the
satisfaction Of having only one per.
fume to think about at time.
