Of outdoor exercise than her lazy Amer ican cousin, looks well to the costume she is to wear when engaged in this win ter sport.
 There is nothing more picturesque than a good woman skater, and a careful ly studied skating costume adds not in considerably to the picture. The skirt, of course should be short, practically and jauntily so, and the shoes, prac- tically, and if possible, jauntily stout. Materials and cut of skirt may be se- lected from much variety, but ever in mind should be kept the use to which the costume is to be devoted, the sur roundings amidst which it is to be worn.
 vivid red, even scarlet is good for those that can wear anything so pro nounced, for here if ever bright hues can be worn without offending. Rough ma terial should be chosen if this gay color is decided upon, and the fur to give the desirable touch, We think, would be white one A hat of furry red beaver would go well with this costume. In de- fense of the gay skating frock. we call
 
 tones are quite out of place for skating they are cold tones, and make the wearer look frozen.
 The French fancy for skating cos tune is a corduroy of myrtle green trimmed with tan suede; and this cer tainly is a very chic creation. The French model has plain gored skirt, strapped with corduroy and ornamented with buttons of the tan suede. The short coat has a vest of the suede and belt of this passes through plait in the back of the coat. Reveres of suede fold back, and can be made to close and fas ten at the desire of the wearer. The shirtwaist may be of cream silk and wool, or one of light shade of tan would be very pretty. A green tie, a green beaver hat, set and trimmed with a bit of bronze, make the finishing touches to this suit
 An English leader of fashion suggests for the skating party costume of white or cream zibeline, but this is not practi- cal for average needs; and then too, there are so many colored goods thai fulfill requirements. If one prefer q light costume, why not select gray trimmed with chinchilla? This can be made elaborate. if that is wanted, by having the skirt of cloth, the short bolero or jacket of velvet with waist coat of gray suede and shirt front and stock of some cream fluffiness.
 What is known as fur plushes are worn for skating costumes abroad and though an expensive material they are durable and stand the wear and tear that one that loves the sport is bound to give her costume great deal of. Vel veteens make economical skating frocks. and come in the colors suitable for pie .uresque demands. Leather, now in use for about everything save lingerie. is also liked for outdoor demands. and

his youth. when as his diary reads: "I saw drunken men reel ing into the front doors of refined families, their object being to devour the dainties provided lavishly on such occasions" Of such New Years eel ebration-and it must be remembered that even pretty decent men got drunk under the repeated plying of we'll meant pitality'-nothing is left but the free drinks poured in saloons for patrons who have spent much money over their bars during the year Let it go at that-though the custom might have better served real soeia- bility.
 Social activity of a sort the new year does bring. Country house parties are we'll over by three days after Christ mas, and the beginning in town of the new years activities is almost i'm mediate, though social superstition still saves holiday week itself. The wedding of Miss Daisy Letter to the Earl of Suffolk begins this year the in ternational season with sufficient bril- liance, but as it is a Washington fune- tion New York is less interested than might be otherwise the case In fact, the Letters seem to illustrate the the ory that Washington may presently be the social center of America. The Lei ters have never taken the trouble to live in New York; yet no American family has contracted such "a brilliant series of matrimonial alliances as theirs, with brainy Lord Curzon, with Maj. Colin Campbell and with the Earl of Suffolk. The Garner girls. one of whom wed French noble. one an ltal- ian of title and one Sir William Cor don-Cumming. of England, are close second.

moderation, should not advertise the fact that she is devotee of pastimes once relegated to men.
 Brown furs being the furs of the sea- son, and brown continuing the fashion able shade generally, the skating cos tune may be designed in a harmony of brown, though brown and black are bit colorless Still for the girl with chestnut hair and golden brown eyes there could be nothing prettier than an all-brown costume having suggestions of gold here and there. But be careful, not to use enough gilt to make a tawdry effect. A bit of Persian embroidery would tighten up such costume, and if used sparingly 6ot detract from the sim plicity that should mark the suit for skating.

trimmed with roses in the loveliest pas tel shades. She seemed a hothouse flower by some accident finding itself out in the snow
 The hat worn by this fortunate being was of the shape illustrated in one oi the accompanying pictures. of medium size dented bere and there, fitting close ly at the back And that appears % be one of the features of this seasons hats, that the brim extended down low and close over the locks at the back. This gives a jaunty look and'a decided bit of style.
 Hats are of varied sizes. but neither the cartwheel nor the infnitesimal is mo- ticed. One is safe in selecting middle ground. and can have as many bends in her hat as fancy desires and her own style allows. The upturned sailor, with either soft or stiff crown. is pretty and youthful. One attractive design Is of brown beaver with folds and rosettes of pink satin. To show that trimmings do not always match the hat, we speak of a good model of black satin decked with pompons and ends of shaded green vel vet ribbon. but this should be worn with a dress of black and green to give the right fashion. A hat of nasturtium red can be worn with different costumes and is advancing in favor. For those that like quiet tones We suggest a gray ,elt trimmed with gray scarf and plume shading from white to gray.
