New Style Glove for Informal Wear.

For afternoon and informal evening
wear there is a particularly pretty new
glove. The kid is the most elastic I have
ever felt. It seems impossible that it
could ever split or wear out.
They come in number of shades, such
as champagne, ochre, sulphur, mulberry
and lavender, as well as white and black
and are twenty button length. The backs
are decorated with sprays of flowers in
natural colorings.
One pair of these novel gloves, thought
especially exclusive, was in a shade of
champagne, rather dull in tone, embroid-
cred with black flowers and delicate -reen
foliage. Worn with black frock, they
would be most effective.
The same kind of glove could e bought
with the ordinary back. Their claim to
novelty lay in the buttons. These were
tiny painted miniatures, exceedingly
pretty and dainty. The prices were from
1915 a pair upward.
Evening gloves, embroidered at the
wrists to simulate bracelets are new.
The tracings are most delicate and are
in black or tones contrasting with the
gloves they decorate. :,
AS to the armlet. they show decided
improyement Instead of being cut off
straight at the wrist they are taken to
deep point at the back of the hand, almost
reaching the l.nuckles. This poI..- is piped
with color. which provides pleasing
relief They come in black and white ana

A much improved automobile glove is of
heavy kid lined with the warmest kind of
stockinette.

Naming the Baby.

The choice of a name for the baby
seems to be regarded as a most important
thing even among people whom We are
apt to regard as uncivilized. And curl
ously enough. these very folk contrive to
avoid the arguments that so often ensue
when father and mother disagree over
whether the little stranger shall be called
Jack or Marmaduke. Priscilla or Jane.
The Mohammedan father and mother
each write their choice of a name on a
slip of paper and place both in the Koran.
Whichever slip is drawn first is the name
given to the child
AZ pretty Egyptian custom is to light
three candles, naming each after god

days old, and a flower name is usually

Hats for the Bride.

81 should say" remarked a milliner,
that half a dozen hats at most would
furnish a bride with sufficient amount
of headgear for the whole season. True,
there are brides who must have two
hats with each gown, for they claim
that they need big hat and also a lit
tie one with each costume. But these
brides are of the very wealthy order
and milliners' bills are of no account to
them.
I'VE find the brown and yellow hat very
serviceable. for it goes with all the brown
and tan gowns. And it also looks well
with the immense galaxy of dresses in the
large trousseau that are not strictly tan.

I'VE invariably in fitting out a bride
caution her against an all-white hat fol

on a coat or hat of gray velvet. 1t also
looks well on green. especially light
bronzy green. and on certain shades of
blue and lavender. Touches Of fur are
used on net blouses and evening frocks.
This is a somewhat incongruous combina-
ton and needs skillful treatment not to
look patchy. Mink. marten and sealskin,
which are enjoying renewed popularity,
combine with any of the warm light
shades of red. purple. blue and copper.

Buttons are decided and incidentally

Chudda shawls are worn for house
shoulder wraps and very handsome de-
signs are seen " these soft squares. The
creamy grounds with the Paisley design
as a border are preferred, though the
dark red backgrounds are exceedingly
comfortable looking. Pale blue is pretty.
but light pink is not quite so effective as
some other colors. unless it is very deli

this latter shade and the Paisley border

Rose Rosettes Used Again.

There is return to the rose rosette for
hat and dress trimming, and these are not
nearly so difficult to manufacture as are
the genuine rosettes. The material is cut
on the bias, then folded around and
around. beginning in the middle, until one
reaches the desired size. Silk. satin,
gauze and chiffon are appropriate ma
terials, and in addition to being used as

and sometimes finish the ends Of ribbon
strands.

brains have thought it the right thing
to follow them in order to become a per
