fall wear. One Of pearl-gray chif-
fon has gray and pompadour cre-
tonne coat, bound with ribbon.
The latest skirts for formal aft

The tendency to mass the deco

ly defined. On the hips they are
entirely plain, or at the most WITH
much lengthwise trimming.
The trotter skirt for street wear
is much shorter than last season.
For the trailing skirts, the popu-

The braids are especially pretty
to trim dresses of solid colors such
as the navy blues or tobacco brown

dren this fall.
Belts of leather are also shown

wash materials, hannels, cheviots or
serges.
These wash dresses, when worn
with heavy underwear and warm
topcoats, are the ideal school dress
for winter.
All sorts of plain linens are al
ways good in these suits, and shep-
herds plaids and plaids with broken
checks with lines of bright color
through them are very smart.

There are effective shadow taffe-
tas for Innings, and some figured eff
fects in palm-leaf designs that
Lake up very prettily for founda-
tions with transparent overdresses.
Among the novelty 1adiums that
are especially designed for waists
is one with a pale ground lined off
with Persian stripes, which are
overplaided with black.
Bordered chiffons will retain all
their popularity of the summer.
They are being manufactured in

Silver is taking the place of gold

MORE POPULAR

A GREAT deal of moirs is ap-
\ pearing. and with it let ornt-
ments and trimmings.
Moire is not confined to black,
but many of the most stately effects
are produced in black.
Some charming wedding gowns
are now being fashioned out Of
white moire.
The material, however, has un-
dergone many changes in weave and
design.
All the new moires are dull finish

and many rcproduce the Vatican

dE very practical idea OF
clothing children in wash
j dresses the year around is
steadily growing in favor.
There are SO many inexpensive
materials in wash goods that are
seryiceable as well as good looking,
with prices ranging from 80 to 80
cents for forty-inch material.
For everyday wear the heavier
wash goods are to be preferred-the
soft piques. costing from 25 to 40
cents a yard: the cheviot mercer
lied cottons, the washable French
fannels, the galateas. the light
weight denims, the tiny checked or
mixed tickings in blue and white of
not too heavy a quality, and all the
hickory materials are among the
serviceable and sanitary materials
for Sc ,ol wear.
A number of very charming ma
terials in cotton and wool mixtures
are also shown. These are much
more practical for school wear than
the all-wool materials, as they laun-
der more satisfactorily.

BRIDAL WREATHS

MYRTLE wreaths for brides

fashionable.
Jasmine wrcaths are also yc1y
popular for bridesmaids wear.
Before adopting this form of
headgear it is well to inquire
whether the clergyman at whose
church the ceremony is to be per-
formed is a rigid stickler for hats
for Momen Worshipers.

Craids Vt all widths, varying
from four and five inch bands to
the narrowest soutache, hold the
distinctive place of thcs, lew deco

note sounded by soutache.

SHlRTWAIST STYLES

THERE is no one style of shirt
L waists that is fashionable.
That is not Mrs. Fashions policy
at all this year.
There are many varying styles,
all :. which are in vogue.
The most popular ones, however,
are designed along the tailored

HATPINS OF FEATHERS

feathered h. pins that have arrived
recent.J from Paris.
They are shown in endless va

selves as particularly charming and
adaptable. owing to the varied
character of their plumage, and
there are also some dear little pea
cocks in realistic colorings, and

So fas mating are these fcathery
hatpins that they almost amount
to trimmings.

CONCERNING COATS
OF THE .raLin, of coats there is

~ No end.
Long, short, medium, tight-ftting,
with collars and without.
They are shown with long sleeves
and with short, single-breasted and
double breasted.
When the season has advanced the
separate coat will be seen in some
one of the many remarkable imita-
tions of fur fabrics which manu-
facturers and importers are pre-
pairing for women.
Broadcloth. with or without fur
lining, is to enjoy another season of
coat utility. Black will undoubtedly
prove the most popular color for
average wear, with white and pastel
tints for carriage use.

STRIPES

STRIPES are in evidence every

Particularly the Pekin stripe in
black and white and gray and white.
There is every reason to believe
they will continue fashionable this
fall and winter.
The new narrow and irregular
stripes are the favorites.

PINK POPULAR

Pale tan can be found barred by
every color obtainable, so that a

shade of tan counting for nothing

Dark BROW bars on tan back
