only white separate waists were posi-
BILE, whether for morning wear in linens
or for more elaborate wear in lace and
net. but now the shops are full of the
most marvellous corrections in co1ored
silks, satins. velvets and lace, which
are nothing more than very elaborate
rendering of the despised separate
waists which have been looked upon as
bourgeoise for so long.
Among these delicious revivals, which
are, of course, to be worn with skirts
for which they have been especially
provided. are those In taffeta and lace,
liberty net, thin velyets and gold lace
embroidery. applique, brocade, spangled
lace. etc. Indeed. no fabric is too cost
ly or elaborate to be used for these
waists.
One such charming blouse recently
imported from Paris was made of pale
green taffeta incrusted with guipure.
The entire waist was made in panels
opening over a chemisette of batiste
and valenciennes. The sleeves were in
two parts, the upper part, of dropping
Japanese fashion, split up the middle.

Frames Made From
POCketbOOk Corners

A INSTEAD OF throwing away the sill
yer corners of old pocketbooks, or
selling them for old silver and Sc
curing thereby a painfully small
sum of money, clever women are now
using them for making most attractive
picture frames. These corners are in
deed easily stripped from an old
nocketbook and mounted on a velvet
background conforming with their size
and shape. The opening for the photo
graph can naturally be made small or
large 1t is the outside of the frame
alone which is controlled by the silver
corners.
When the old pocketbook has but
two silver pieces they should be put
on the diagonal corners of the velvet
frame In such cases it can be made
to fit some particular picture. as the
corners are then but a decoration and
without effect on the size of the frame.
OF course. prettier frame can be made
when the old pocketbook has four sill
yer corners. Card cases, portfolios and
mems notebooks have usually this num-
Der. They then muse be taken from
the leather and laid together SO that
their ends meet and form a rectangle.

has an upper thread of silk, which Is
so snowy that it looks like silver. The
sleeves were half length. and gathered
on the inside seam. and set IN the bod
ice by fiat gathers. They ended in ell
bow cuffs of malines lace and tiny ruff
f1es of black chiffon.
Shirt waists, always according to the
modistes about to lose their popularity,
are in reality more in demand than ever
just now. The only difference between
the new and old waists in general Is
that there seems to be more and more
of a tendency to bar the strictly tai
1ored waist on all but a few occasions.
It's use among those devoted to the
technique of dress has now narrowed
down to severe morning dress Even
for the latter the strictly tailor-made
shirt waist is now being supplanted by
soft blouses of flannel
Very thick pongee is also used for
athletic blouses-that is, for shooting.
golfng and similar purposes These
are worn with white piqne stocks or
stocks of colored silk. with soft turn
overs. This outfit is also suitable for
wear in business offices or for school
girls.
For wear with tailored suits the
strictly tailored shirt waists are now
made Of fine linen. tucked or pleated.
with wide belt or. as an even newer
touch, with a very shallow pique waist

The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1906-12-23

This becomes the frame proper and the
velvet underneath is but its back
ground.
Dark maroon or peacock blue are at
tractive colors on which to mount mas
sive. heavy corners OF pocketbooks,
while turquoise or apple green make
daintier backgrounds for light, open
designs in silver. The reason velvet
is chosen as the background is because
the metal sinks into its depth and
therefore appears better than IL mount

smooth surface.
Heavy cardboard is FIRST OF all used.
being covered with the velvet, and In
doing this work strong glue is essen
tial. The silver corners are also held
to the frame with glue.
Women who have some sentiment
about an old pocketbook or card case
have found the idea OF perpetuating the
corners as a picture frame most ac-
ceptable. It is even possible to have it
surround photograph Of the original
donor of the pocketbook.
The most elaborate frame that has
been seen made from old silver bits
was large and almost round in shane.
Two heavy semicircular pieces of silver
formed the decoration. They had been
taken from side bags. qf which they
were the clasps. The chains from which
they once hung had been removed and
their backs taken off. The fiat fronts,
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1906-12-23

therefore, alone remained and showed
themselves most adaptable for making
a large frame. These side bags, it
seems, are no longer In favor with
Dame Fashion. Many women. however,
have laid them aside, and their clasps
are often of antique silver, showing
hand workmanship. Should they again
become the mode it would be quite a
simple matter to restore those decorat-
ing frames to their original form.
Gold corners Of pocketbooks and
those made OF Russian enamel can be
treated in the Same way az tho silver
pieces. Usually, however, women pos
sessing these more precious pieces Of
metal have new pocKetbooks made to
fit them whenever excessive soil or
wear makes it necessary. The silver
corners are so much less costly that it
hardly pays to have new leather books
made for them expressly.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1906-12-23

that 1t has been hidden In a-SnDcaddy
resting in full view on a whatnot or
Siderable in the drawing-room. The
organizers OF the hunt take eight pieces
of card, each about an inch square,
and on them print, In clear characters,
the lettersT. E. A, C, A. D, d, Y. These
are to be fixed, by means of pins or
otherwise, in irregular order in differ
emit parts Of the premises. The treasure
seeker, if he is acute enough to read
Alright the instructions given him, will
be led from letter to letter, and must
carefully note down each as he dis
covers 1T. When he has succeeded In
tracing out the whole number, he has
still to discover their proper order
when the word thereby formed will
supply the lucky guesser with a final
and unmistakeable f1ngerpost to the
hiding place of the treasure.
The indications given by the card will
of course vary with the arrangements
of the house and its contents. There is
room for the exercise of considerable
ingenuity in the composition OF the In
structfons, which, without being too
cryptic. should be such as to require
some little mental effort for their due
Interpretation. For instance, we may
imagine that they run as follows, the
words interpolated between parentheses
