The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1911-10-19

New York City.-There is scarcely
one feature of the present seasons
styles that n can point to, without
adding that something on this or
der has been shown BEFORE" and
yet all the air of familiarity that the
latest modes suggest, there is much
that is really new about them.
1t is like meeting someone whose
face reminds you of someone you
know very we.. yet who, upon close
acquaintance is entirely different
from the person associated with mem
DRY. Take for instance, dress trim
mings. Certainly we have seen
beadwork IN so many various guises
that it would seem impossible for
anything new in this particular form
of garniture to be proceeded. But
such beadwork as .he buyers for the
smart shops nave brought back with
them from Paris, Vienna and some
of the small villages of Bulgaria
nave never before been seen on the
trimming counters. The beads in
clude many metallic effects with al
the rich, deep co1ors Of the American
Indians and the characteristic combi-
nations of Rumania and Bulgaria,
but they also come in the daintiest
and loveliest evening blends, that
remind, one Of the tints on rare min
iatures.
There are filet grounds studded
with gold and silver beads and with
pearls. In fact in the gold and sill
yer beads and jewelled effects the
variety is wonderful. And there is
the same wide variety in the tunic
and waist garnishments, with addi-
tjonal bands and embroidered cloth
with tinsel and jewels.
If anything has been added to the
height of the fashionable woman
since spring fashions were declared.
certainly nothing in the way Of
breadth or thickness has been vouch-
safed to her-at least by her dress
maker, who does not always agree
with Dame Nature. Fall shows the
same lean, lank styles that have pre-
vailed tor the past year or more, and
found their greatest exagger-
alton in some of the summer modes.
Possibly there are more frills now
but scant frl.ls were used to more
or less extent on summer frocks.
And, here, let us pause a moment
to, consider some Of the new wrink-
les In frills-which, by the way,,i is no
