Spanuled Gowns.

The best thing to do with a worn
out spangled gown is to purchase at
once new robe and lay in right over
the old chiffon and silk foundation.
Spangled gowns are by no means OBJ
solete and, according to all present in
dications, bid fair to be more popular
this year than ever before and the
only danger is by their becoming too
numerous to remain quite smart.
Then, too, the most effective robes are
ridiculously inexpensive this year and
the most of them seem to be of good
net, which is an all-important consid-
Grafton. Too fine or too stiff a net is
to be avoided, for, in all probability, it
will scarcely stand the making up

PIN CUSHIONS IN FLORAL DE-

Old Forms of This Useful Adjunct to
Toilet Table Replaced by De-

Pin cushions in floral devices have
quite supplanted the more prosaic and
stereotyped forms which have long

and bureaus, chiffoniers and toilet
tables will this winter blossom out in
70 regular flower gardens with their

Effective as these cushions are, they
are simple to make, and any woman
fond of fancy work will have no diff.

1T cannot be denied that certain

welfare
