FASHION Is COSTLY
JEWELED CORSET ACCESSORIES
THE LATEST NOVELTY.

With jeweled corset accessories a neces-
sary part Of smart woman's wardrobe
this fall, the fad for ornamentation seems
to have reached its height. The clasps and
skirt hooks. in real or imitation turquoises,
rubies, sapphires, topazes and diamonds.
worn on the new style corsets are decid-
eddy attractive, and few Of those who can
afford either the imitation or real will get
a garment with the plain steel or alumni
mum fasteners that were used last season.
The simplest of the accessories, In gold,
are shaped like bow knot or patterned
after a heart design. while the fieur de lis
q trifie more ornate, will doubtless be af-
fected by many women. The teweied
clasps and hooks are naturally more elabo-
rate For instance, one device Is an ALI
gator In imitation emerald. The body,
delicately carved, showing the legs, feet
and tail, and set in gold. IS decidedly at
tractive These clasps and hooks used on
white silk or lingerie corsets are stunning
and most unusual to persons OF conserva-
tive ideas.
Dainty enough for bride are the jew
eled clasps and hooks made Of imitation
pearls in the design Of daisy or a spray
Of lily of the valley. Then there are
broochlike effects of square. oval or round
pieces of topaz, garnet, turquoise matrix
etc, surrounded with brflliants. As clasps
these are, Of course, In exceedingly small
patterns, but quite large enough to show
to advantage cream or pure white corsets.
The hooks are larger and more ornate. In
the limitations these sets may be bought

side Of the collar. This latter. of course.
is the better way for very warm days. as
the crispness OF the tulle Is lost through
Precipitation.
With collarless gowns the little tulle bow
Is most benign fashion for those who
have not swan necks or have lost the round
ed curves Of youth. The neck. perchance Is
less seldom made in beauty's mold than the
nose or mouth or any of the other features.
Yet GOODNESS and comfort are making It's
daytime exposure more general every day
American women are forsaking the English
fashion Of dressing their necks high, to
which they have been loyal so long. and are
now patterning their fancy gowns after
the French and Italian mode of almost i'm
perceptible collars
one of cream color. the little bow Of either
blue or cream color carries out the COM
p1eteness of the gown and makes those
who have a penchant for collars forget
their absence.
with white evening gowns and decoi-
lete bodices 1t Is quite new to wear little
tulle bow Of black. 1t Is then supposed to
enhance the whitenesS Of the skin. In
fact, 1t Is worn in much the same way as
black velvet was worn by the women or
1850. With q black evening gown. on the
contrary, the tulle bow Is worn of white.
Gowns of other co1ors, however, with low
bodices almost invariably have worn with
them tulle bows matching their colorS. As
yet the tulle bow has not become sufficient
ly vulgarized to be worn with shirt waists.
the little tuIle bow finds a place In the
hair Here, 1t adds height and often gives
q recherche look to the costume. Usually
it is spangled a little. or. what Is prettfer
for the white bow, Is to have tiny rhine
stones scattered over its surface In imfta-
ton of drops of dew. Quite frequently
these tulle bows for the hair are made In
the shape of butterflies.

for "a and up, while the real stones. set
in gold or silver, cost according to the
value Of the jewels used.
An accessory quite as essential to COM
pleteness az the jewel fastentngs and hooks
IL the corset sachet worn at the bust This
may be just as large or small as the
wearer desires and in any pattern that
pleases, for in the choice OF these dainty
things there are no rules OF style to be
followed. These bags are practical as well
as ornamental for they give to the bust
rounded line that is especially effective
when wearing q princess or empire frock.
In white, pink or blue linen, sheer lawn or
silk, or made Of lace in lingerie effect they
are pretty. One OF the neatest patterns for
such a sachet is a conventional heart de-
sign with the point at the bottom. but
without the two lobes at the top. the latter
being straight. Trimmed with bow knots
of narrow baby ribbon these bags are at
tractive.
An oval-shaped sachet in light pink or
delicate blue silk. with the edges of the
material frayed into fringe. is an attrac-
tive accessory to what was once a plain
garment of dress. One of the most eff
fective Of these sachets may be made of
blue and white ribbon woven basket fash
ion into a square with double bow knots
at each Of the four corners. Another pretty
design for a bag made of lace or combi
nation of lace and sheer lawn is made cone
shape, with the insertion or edgfng put on
in rows about an eighth Of an inch apart.
with a bow knot of them at both top and
bottom.
To be In keeping with the rest of these
elaborate accessories the carriers are beau
tifully trimmed. They are no longer con-
sidered decorative enough made of pretty
silk elastic. for now this year they are COW
cred with friHs of lace or ruffies of hand
embroidered linen or lawn that make
them quite artistic without In the least in
terfering with their usefulness.
One Of the prettiest patterns for these
lingerie garters is a combination of mar
row Valenciennes or Cluny lace with tiny
bows of silk or satin baby ribbon at the
ends of each row. Those made Of alternate
rows Of beading run with ribbon and in
sertion are also dainty. This latter style
will be especially effective for young girls
and autumn brides.

Extremes in Hats.

Smart hats show two extremes this fall
the small. round polo shape 80 popular
year ago. with wing or bird on one side or
a huge rosette Of ribbon loops at the back,
and the large hat Of the picture variety
Both the Scotch and the Glengarry turban
will be worn, not to mention the small hats
of the Peter Pan variety. which return
with the assurance of renewed favor as
smart fall and winter chapeau.
Whether large or small IN pattern, most
Of the stylish headgear for the coming
season will be OF beaver
Perhaps the handsomest of the early
models are Of black. and velvet is the pre-
ferred foundation, though MORE and tat
feta are used. and the combinations Of the
two are frequent.
High crowns are In favor and the square
crown on the Gainsborough idea is well
liked. without doubt the most noticeable
feature in the matter Of trimming Is the
amount of birds, wings and breasts that are
used, and plumes in all lengths are to be
decidedly popular.
Besides black, browns and the wine
shades will be much worn and green and
blue in moderation. Ribbons are used in
profusion and occasionally buckles and even
braid as a trimming.
Not every woman can becomingly wear
the polo turban and in affecting 1t women
should remember that a fluffy couture Is an
absolute necessity. for this type of headgear
never becomes person who wears her ha1r
In a severe fashion or drawn close to the
sides.
Half Of the charm of these little round
hats that are placed SO jauntily on the head
is in the display Of well-groomed and prop
erly dressed hair.
A smart new polo in black beaver shown
in one of the. shops had three rows or folds
of satin ribbon encircling the sides ana
front and ending in a profusion or loops
arranged high in back to keep 1t from being
too fiat Another black beaver model-a
walking hat-was trimmed with large
black wing on the right side, the opposite
plain piece Of velvet just the width OF the
hat.
OF the large style hats mushroom shape
in black beaver would be stunning for car
riage use. Trimmed with three big blue os-
trich plumes at the back and two American
beauty roses tucked near the brim on the
crown this model would be exceedingly at
tractive and becoming to almost any wom-
an, especially If bit Of maline be added
beneath the brim at a point where 1t
touches the hair. The brim of this style
headgear droops and with the high crown
does resemble the field mushroom.
A black Gainsborough in beaver felt,
trimmed with two white ostrich plumes on
the right side and caught up on the left
with bows of either white or black satin
ribbon is stunning model for a young
woman.
One of the plainest models in walking
hats Is made of black beaver hood, polo
shape and lis absolutely untrimmed. with
the exception of large crushed velvet DOW
placed directly in front.
For an evening hat large pink beaver
with a high crown and wide straight brim
may be stunningly trimmed with three Dig
blue feathers that droop over the top OF the
crown SO the tips almost touch the orim In
front.

But a word as to how to keep your apple
store once it is away from country IN
f1uences. The fruit of Eve won't last long
in heated city rooms; SO persuade your
landlord to lend one corner Of his unneatea
basement store room. Then wrap eacn
apple separately In paper before conSls niLs
it to the barrel. and give an apple bee so
that the guests may help with this. Last
~, q thick covering Of old carpet or SACK
ing is necessary for receptacies, 1or ON, one
frozen apple will spoil whole barrel. The
biggest beauties rub off and polish to mir
ror brightness with flannel rag, and
then pile in pyramids in becoming bowls.
STAYED Off Despair.
So goes the word of the homesiok girl. who
STAYED off despair and helped to keep the
city pot boiling with the humble goodies
she ravished from the Westchester farm.
Finally there were her nuts. and what
goodly store! Butternuts, walnuts, hickory
nuts, chestnuts and little knobby tooth
some hazel nuts were some Of the sorts.
None was gathered till frost had loosened
burrs and outside husks and ripened all to
T. Then each sort was put in its own
lutte bag kept too, in the cool store room
and served in a blue willow bowl.
Some other little harvestings not yet
enumerated comprised a few hard winter
pears for preserves. crab apples for spiced
pickles and wild grapes for jelly.
And all as easy to gather and take away
as to kiss your hand, concludes the girl,
who repeats her experiment in October.
The cost of packing materials and trans
portation from the farm she enumerates as
follows:
3 sugar barrels at 10 cents each. ...... 30
i crate. 10
3 lutte bags at ) cents each. .............. Is
Country wagon carriage. .................. 30
Freight and city express. ................1 .50
Little, indeed, for so much fun and frolic,
health gained and money saved. So II the
hardened city girl shifts at the humble tale,
let the country-bred one. doomed to win
ter of rooftops go and do likewise. The
generous farmers are plentiful-only too
glad, indeed, to get rid of the overflow.
And If even a minimum OF such haul does
nothing else, it will rejoice the heart like
familiar face. Then there are the coming
festivals which these modest things grace
so happily. Halloween and Thanksgiving.
