They should lie fiat over the silk ruffies and
should not be any deeper than those.
These shades trimmed with narrow
gold galloon. gold cord, gold lace, gar
lands of chiffon or ribbon flowers or small
millinery artificial flowers, ribbon embroid-
cry work. small French medallions, etc.
The flowers used to trim them are all In
pale, delicate shades, in accord with the
subdued color effects OF the shades them
selves. The gilt trimming is narrow and
should be sufficiently furnished to resemble
old gilt, and Is most inconsptcuously put on.
In fact, the entire effect of these new
shades is one of extreme daintiness ana
delicacy, instead of being striking or re-
markable.
Pink. yellow and pale green shades are
particularly popular in these designs. A
pink shade of this kind had two rows of
narrow dull gilt braid around the top and
two around the bottom of the shade above
the net rufties The rufiies were edged with
lace. So was a little ruche of the net at
the top of the shade. The shade was fes-
TONED with a garland of pink and white
sweet peas made of chiffon and pale green
ribbon for vine and leaves.
A green shade was edged with gold and
green fringe and above this was a ruche
OF the white net. Around the top of the
shade also was fringe of gold and green.

the ruche which finished 1t around the top.

medallions made of lace and embroidered

landed with yellow sweet peas and had
four French heads placed at equal inter-
walls about midway between the bottom
and top of the shades. Each of the heads
was surrounded with a border OF narrow
gold lace and inside that with border of
tiny sweet peas made of yellow and white
ribbon and embroidery. The sweet pea gar
lands around the shade were also tiny and
made In the same way. Marrow gold lace
was used to border this shade at top and
bottom.

which are meant for use with rather small

also better cut and gives the best line to
the figure when 1t is short WASTED in the
back and slopes down to a point In the
front. The jackets 'front.' hang loose and
give good line to the figure, and In these
moro elaborate styles are finished with
double plcated rulings of lace and also
have the embroidered waistcoats that have
been and are such a feature of the cloth
gowns this winter, while the sleeves are
often made of different material than the
rest of the costume, or are SO heavily trim
med with fur, velvet and braid as to look
as though they were made Of different ma
terial.
Rather an odd Idea is seen In the elabor-
ate cloth gowns made up in light colors
that have bias folds and bands OF the same
material edged with narrow piping of vel
vet of the same shade or contrasting color,
while the coat, always short invariably
boasts of deliberately braided waistcoat
or one made of superb broeade and fin
ished with two three lines Of braid, sill
yer or gold. These fancy waistcoats add
immensely to the beauty of the cloth gown,
and In truth transform 1t from the ordinary
mundane cloth costumes to the elaborate
reception gown. There is an immense
amount of beautiful handwork to be seen
in the braiding while the colorlng and de-

On the other hand, carefully count any

Hints From Paris for House
and Housewife.

A TTRACTIvE lamp shades in new

Il y pecially for the drawing room and
boudoir- Many of them are easily
made at home, and the work is excessively
attractive because 1t may readily be COM
pleted and will show results which are
really important In household decoration,
instead OF being like the fifth wheel to a
coach, as is the case with a lot of fancy
work.
Among the newest lamp shades OF Pa
risian design which have lately been i'm
ported are those made of fine white net,
which is shirred over colored silk shade.
The effect is very soft and is much prettier
than when the color is not covered with
white.
These shades have first a paper founda-
ton OF any desired shape, excepting that
of the perfect globe. to which, of course,
the style would not be well adapted But
the shade may be round, sioping out very
much toward the bottom, or of nearly the
same circumference all the way down. This
latter shape appears to be the favortte.
There are also the four, five or eight-sided
shades. which are very popular.
On top Of this paper shade thin col
ored silk Is shirred. The silk does not have
to be very full or of very good quality,
China silk. which may be had at forty cents
yard, being quite good enough. One or
two ruffies OF the silk. not very deep. are
sewed around the bottom OF the shade.
Over this again the thin, fine white net is
placed. 1t is shirred evenly around the
top and bottom, and finely gathered ruffies
or pleated ones are placed over the silk ruff
fies at the bottom. There may be one or
two OF these. but they must not stand out.

If not of the fur, then the furs worn with

1t must be confessed there, are certain furs
that have been so cleverly dyed to resemble

There is a narrow belt Of the cloth fastened
at the back with two rhinestone buttons.
The waist is apparently slipped on over a

artistic, effective and becoming The color
scheme Is also something that is quite 4
feature in this style OF costume, and the
most absolutely diverse shades are COM
baned with surprising good results. Most
effective are the results obtained from q
Powered brocade, when the design Is out
lined In narrow gold or silver braid. While
1t Is not considered at all too elaborate to
have the design Of the brocade elaborated
upon. as 1t were, by heavy embroidery
worked in silk of the same color.
Embroidery on the material itself Is also
one of the noticeable features Of many of
these gowns. Strangely enough the en-
broidery is done in the same color as the
cloth, and at first seems ineffective, but
at second glance stands out from the back
ground Of the cloth very artistically The
rule apparently now Is blending Of coors
and apparent simplicity of outline-two very
difficult things to accomplishment in truth
only satisfactorily possible when expense
does not have to be considered. Pale blue
has been and is very favorite color for
cloth costumes this winter. most charm
ing gown OF pale blue cloth has a long
circular skirt, which is made In a succession
of very narrow tucks, not over a half inch
wide, and that extend from the waist to the
hem. Around the hem of the skirt Is a
wide bias fold of material, headed by FIVE
rows OF narrow blue braid. The waist,
which biouses a little. is tucked to match
the skirt Down the front of the waist
and the skirt is wide pleat OF the cloth.

delicate ribbon work. Baskets having gilt
lattice work for the lower part and with
the upper part filled with bright tinted
flowers or fruit In ribbon work are also
most attractive as ornaments for candle
shades.
Handkerchiefs for the coming spring
show return to colored borders for
mourning use. At some OF the finest
French shops all of the plain handkerchiefs
have colored borders. They are shown in
every imaginable shade for use with vari-
GUS costumes. but the pink and lavender
borders are the prettiest for use with gray,
brown and other neutral tints. although
gray. brown. yellow, dark and light green,
rose, red. heavy purple and orange are
shown. Very fancy > black botders are
also shown, but somehow these do not
seem exactly in good taste. If they are
meant for mourning it would seem that
palmer border or pure white would be bet
ter. If not meant for mourning, then any
other color is better than black, as even
the lightest design in that hue suggests In
handkerchief merely an over-dressy
mourning.
Fine French embroidery continues to be
the most popular decoration for afternoon
handkerchiefs. preference is also shown
for corner designs, instead of for those
bordering the handkerchief all around. Lit
tie wheelbarrows loaded with flowers are
among the most attractive new corner de-
signs. Monograns are also used in the
corner, framed in geometrical designs In
embroidery, in preference to the delicate
wreaths which were so fashionable as these
have been so much overdone in the ma
chine-made handkerchiefs. Many hand
kerchiefs have the monograms framed in
chain Of plain links.

lamps of Dresden, glass or French gilt in
French or equally delicate drawing rooms
or boudoirs are to be found some striking
new floral shades which can be used in
more handsome and snowy apartments or
in large halls.
One of these. very large shade was OF
brilliant red chiffon. the very brightest
poppy red in shade. The chiffon used over
an equally brilliant foundation, was very
full, being shirred on in three tiers or rows
OF shfrring, the material being allowed to
fall full over these three bands. something
after the manner OF blouse waist
Around the top OF the shade were six
peaks, or points, made of wire and covered
with the chiffon, which stuck up for quite
a distance above the foundation of the
shade. These peaks were In the shape of
the letter V. the point being at the top,
however, and the two ends being attached
to the top of the frame. A great mass of

fusion, they taking the place OF lattice
frame. Around the bottom OF the frame
there was a full. limp flounce of chiffon
unsupported by any silk foundation. Over
this chiffon 1ounce there were sewed an
innumerable quantity of poppy petals.
Another large shade was made of dark
green satin and four colored pictures OF
French court scenes The shade was really
in eight pieces. four large sections Of the
pictures and four small sections of the
SleeH Satiu EaCH OF the pictures was
bordered with duh gilt galloon, as If 1t were
a gilt frame. The green satin in close
horizontal pleats covered the four narrow
sides. Around the top OF the shade was
band OF the gold gallon and around the
bottom was a gold and green fringe
Another four-sided shade was noticed
covered with large lowered cretonne in
red and pink, the borders and seams being
outlined with gilt galloon

Gufpure is also used in this fashion, and
return to extreme simplicity in trimming is
shown in some of the finest handkerchiefs,
which are bordered in rose point about two
inches deep all around and possibly four
inches deep at the corners. These have no
embroidery whatever and are in marked
contrast to the handkerchiefs of last sea-
son, which showed embroidery and lace OF
two or three kinds in all decorations.
In the colored bordered handkerchiefs
many designs are shown. The most at
having several lines of graduated breadth
or the color forming the border.
Among the most useful things for bridge
and other prizes to be given to women this
season are the trays of various size and
shapes which are SO much needed on the
library table, the dressing table, etc. These
are now made of cardboard and covered
with French cretonne or brocade. They
are most easily made of five pieces. the
bottom and four sides. They are square
or oblong, and the sides should slope out
from the bottom. They may be either
rounded or straight at the top. They are
usually quite shallow and are covered with
the same material outside and inside. Each
piece OF cardboard is covered separately
and then overhanded to the bottom The
edges of the sides are then oyerhanded to-
gether. Gold braid is used around the lower
edge of the tray and around the top
edge, both on the outside and inside. 1t is
also used to cover all seams.
The trays have no other ornamentation
unless II is desired to decorate them with
French heads. These may be pasted In the
middle of each of the four sides and sur
rounded with border of gold cord or gold
lace
Other exceedingly desirable bridge prizes
are the baskets in glass and silver now
used SO much for the decoration OF tables
These are most desirable In silver, but the
cut glass ones, the china ones and even
those of pressed glass, are useful to every
woman for variety in decoration. They
