trick of the dress artist can be noted.
For the benefit OF the woman who
has worn black for year or more
there may be given some fashion rules
for the guidance Of her wardrobe.
One of these Is that she may wear all
the gold jewelry she owns and all the
Jet. She may also wear silver, gun
metal, gold antiques and all other or
naments that are not set with colored
stones.
Diamonds and pearls are permissible
In all but the deepest mourning, and

PRESCRIPTIONS IN LATIN.

What virtue is there in the secrecy
with which the doctor badges about

every medical school, and when strict

seems to mean doing what is best for
the doctor. individually and col

Among the things that lis best for

scrptions in Latin, and thus keeping

tunity to repeat his prescription--in
Latin, and HIS fee-in dollars.
If you ask the doctor why he uses
Latin in writing his prescriptions, why

TOUCHES OF VANITY
DECORATIVE ART AS APPLIED
TO DRESS.
Embroideries Just Now Are Popular
Work That in Many Cases Can
Be Done Very Effectively
at Home.

New embroideres hold marvellous
possibilities for the woman who does
such work skilfully herself. and at the
same time much expense can be
avoided. Fancy work shops are going
more and more into the business OF
stamping medalllons and designs for
trimming smart frocks, and for a few
cents extra 1t is even possible to get
experts to start the work and assert
the colors for one.
In some of tho crash linens there
are remarkable examples OF the prin-
'ciples Of decorative art applied to
dress. The conventional designs are
outlined with macrame Irvine, or So
called linen cord, and filed In with
sepia and silver in fiat tones. In one
very charming gown, linen crash,
bpth belt and sacque are designed 10
accompany the dress, which has plat

embroidered in macrame. The blouse
is Of grass linen, touched with mac.
