when II e unwise to invest IL large wardrobe: Your
hat could be black in light weight, and trimmed with
plumes OF any other preferred garniture For house
wear mornings, neat wrappers will be the best thing,
changing in the afternoon for pretty empire tea
gown or house-gown in cashmere .or any inexpensive
light weight wooden material. For more formal wear
a gown half princess half empire, made from any Of
the soft black silks may be worn. This will fit the
form at back and sides snugly and be topped by
lace yoke full marrow front Of the silk falling from
the lower edge Of yoke in empire fashion Have full

ton Is on the same lines but in two pieces both bod
ice and skirt being gathered at the waist-lne, the
front Of the skirt arranged in two box peats with
tensions at the waistne which, when the skirt is on
the person. will extend to the lower edge Of yoke and
be secured there by invisible hooks and eyes The
belt will pass Under these pleats and close there.
Rosettes be placed the pleats where they meet

trimming is deemed necessary Pretty fussy sleeves
will always be correct, and really much kinder than
fitting skimpy ones Dainty neck arrangements
also should be aimed at while your hats may be as

not heavy black WOODEN tights and wool jerseytop
petticoat will be all that is necessary under the skirt
and will be found most comfortable, too.
