A gown especially suitable for au-
/ tumn wear is of fine black CLOTH the
| long, flowing skirt handsomely trim
med with large diamonds Of black vel
vet outlined with wide black silk braid.
| With II Is worn a short black velvet
bolero arranged with a strap effect of
| the same braid that figures on the
| skirt A touch of lightness Is intro
! duced by the collar and cuffs and un-
| dervest Of white glace inlet with old

pale green and white braid A deep

| pletes this costume
Hint for the 5uxom
Everything in the shape Of high
throat Jewelry, such as dog collars,
| should be avoided. In fact, the less
| jewelry worn In the shape of neckets
the better. It may perhaps be accept
ed as one of the compensatlons of the
| stout that they are mostly blessed with
good necks and shoulders, albeit their
throats are inevitably short.
Use of Cosmetics
The harm does not come in using n
cosmetic, but in having 1t show. So
declares a beauty specialist. She says
woman should apply rouge If neces-
sary and that the only crime lies in de-
| lection. The woman who goes about
the street looking a poster picture is
neither pleasing nor forgivable
sight but on the other hand, neither
is the woman who goes about her
house with draggly gown and scrag-
gy neck and deep wrinkles in her fore
| head and her face, when she might
look young and attractive. It is not
the big things that count, but the
| little ones.
Spaghetti and Cheese
After the center has been scooped
| from n pineapple or Edam cheese save
the shell for the serving OF spaghetti
Boil the spaghetti. drain, blanch and
drain again. Twist It around the in
side of the chccs0 SHELL make a half
| pint of cream sauce and pour It care
! fully over the spaghetti. Stand the
shell on piece of paper in the bottom
Of a baking dish and bake In q moder-
ately quick oven fifteen or twenty min
utes. Dish on a napkin and send at
once to the table. II handled carefully
the shell may be used again The cheese
shell imparts a delicious flavor to this
most tasteful and slightly dish.
AS to Christmas Gifts
Individuality should be the one thing
| looked for in Christmas gifts, says Har-
ticular thing the recipient desires, If
possible, and If there is anything that
can be marked 1t should be. One
handkerchief marked with all the in
itial is worth half q dozen bought with
a single initial which any one might
have. Everything is marked this year,
the lingerie and even fine shirt waists
in tiny handkerchief letters. 1t only
costs a few cents letter to have this
DONE
Little Coat for Evening
A great success Of the season is the
little coat, the "paletots caracos,'' for
evening wear. 1t is trimmed with
strips of chinchilla and richly braided
Sometimes a ruche of tulle Mary Stuart,
in black and white, or of the same
color as the garment ITSELF Is added to
this charming little overcoat that fire.
quently has a silk hood that can be
drawn over the head when going out to
the theater or to dinner parties.
The French Woman's Way
When the French woman has put in a
part of her day upon her house she
spends the remainder upon herself. She
does not consider time wasted which
Is devoted to the preservation of her
own good looks; in fact, were she to
take her choice she would much prefer
to make herself beautiful rather than
to expend her energies upon her
dwelling. "I must be beautiful, for
am the great attraction in my home"
said French woman to caller, land
then, when 1 am charming, / can look
to my house and see that it is in
order"
