present season. The upper bodice is OF

Silk serge and some of the heavier OF
toman weaves in silk are to be made up
in dressy fall street costumes.
Even full dress costumes are to clear
the ground if the latest edct of Paris
abolishing all trains, is obeyed.
Silk lace has returned to favor, and in
the different blonde laces and in mechlin
many exquisite costumes are made up
Among the coats that are practical as
we'll as beautiful, those of heavily ribbed
and knotted shantung silk are noticeable
Established tones of colors to be worn
This season are maize. cerise, bluet, line
green, linden green and kings purple
Many of the new silks incline to dull
effects rather than to brilliant sheen but
the latter will be by no means abolished.
The fall coat will almost certainly be
very long, so long, in fact, that not over
two inches of the skirt will be left in
view.
Among the new shades is one called lin
den. 1t is really creamy, yellow green.
1t is particularly beautiful in shimmering
stuffs.
1t is predicted that the Louis XVI tri-
corn. or three-cornered hat, is coming
back this winter, with its luxurious mass
of feathers.
Satin fabrics will undoubtedly figure
very prominently in fall and winter wear
as they combine eXcellently we'll with the
favorite nets.
Among dress accessories, the hoods and
scarfs, the latter of Spanish lace, with
long fringe across the ends, are the
smartest novelties.

Paragraphs of Interest to Women.

Sleeves are now tight-ftting only at the
wrist.
Many draped hats are being shown for
the early fall.
Figured goods show signs of popularity
for the autumn.
Slender girls still cling to the charm
ing empire style.
As coats grow longer, skirts, for some
reason, grow shorter.
New Paris gowns show revival of the
puff at the sleeve elbow.
There seems to be a revival of colored
Innings for sheer gowns.
Heavy corded moire is a material that
will be much seen this fall.
Spotted foulard is being used for the
Innings of motor coats.
New models are expected to show all
kinds of plaitings and shirrings.
Bengaline and moire promise to be great
favorites in the winter costuming.
The lengthening of the waist is now
definite and an accepted edict of fashion
An innovation of the season is the use
of mousseline ruching TO finish silk gowns.
Gloves of the winter are to be in black,
tan. white and gray and no other colors
The temperance of the founced dress
is one of the novelties of the moment.
Foulards will figure generously in the
making of fall and winter house dresses.
CIoaks of the moment are very much on
the same lines as those of fifty years ago.

evening. This they will have to discon-
tinue for decollete gowns are positively
required now on all occasions where eti-
auette dictates that they should be worn.
There is no compromise. The bebe neck
or colarless dress has been relegated
TO the past. 1t did not find as much of a
following at any time in Paris as in
America.
A new effect in coat trimmings is mass
ing the braidng designs under the arm
and side panel, and there is often an ap-
plication of heavy trimming at the hips.
This is not merely for decorative pur-
poses, but to accentuate the elongated
waist.

not be able to do so. 1t takes the chic
and self-assurance of born Parislenne
to be positively stunning in black and
white effects. When it is really becom-
ing TO one there is nothing quite SO smart
as this combination artistcally planned
and executed.
Among the colors that predominate for
the fall are coal dust black black, raisin,
seal brown and mustard. The smartest
of materials are to be had in these shades,
as well as the different violet shadings,
pervenche. mogol. a broWnish rose color,
gravier, pebble gray, raspberry red. a
dark purplsh blue and bordeaux red.
Green, dark yelowish green, gray green
and other tints of green running from a
delicate tint to the brightest of resedas
are good colors to select when purchasing
reception and matinee dresses. Blues,
reds and browns, however, are to be the
real favorites In silks of the soft hues
and in broadcloths there is no color so
appealing and attractive as a golden
brown. Blues are here in Prussian and
gendarme shades, the latter. of course.

policeman of France. Until this fall

port women have effected yellow all sum-
mer, but they will not be able to continue
in saffron hues in the fall and be strictly
in the mode. 1t is true, however, that
broadcloths in canary-colored yellow and
close sheered zibeines of the same shade
are exceedingly handsome.
In selecting material for the handsome
thre e-piece suit there can be no better
choice than the new close-sheered zbeline
or the long-favored broadcloth. For
