BY CORA MOORE.

Nowhere are the grace and beauty that
are characteristic Of the fall modes more
noticeable than in the evening wraps
which are far and away more charming
and altogether successful than any OF
previous seasons. Also they have GER
tain practicability about them that
speaks much for the advance that mas
been made by fashion designers In the
way of combining the unitarian with the
purely artistic
The wonderful brocades, the velvets
and satins, and especially the new col
orings, all lend themselves most admir-
ably to the fashioning of these wraps.
Most of them are cut on the klmono
plan, the sleeves being hardly more than
exaggerated armsides.
In the original of the sketch Bur
gundy silk, gold brocaded, was employ
wine shade The back has the velvet in
panel form. edged with tiny gold buttons.
and a cutaway effect, outlined by the
clever draping Of the velvet from the
termination of the white fox collar. down
around the back. catching in the end of
the panel. The sweep of this velvet is
most graceful. and certainly is unique.
There is a new printed weave that re-
sembles a brocade that is much sought
for fashioning the costume that COM
prises dress and wrap alike-a fad Of the
hour. 1t is comparatively inexpensive,
ana 1t combines most lmpreSSlVely with
either satin or velvet, SO that, following
the suggestion offered by the illustrated
model, substituting the new fabric for
the brocade and plain satin for the
silk velvet the wrap could be made up
for about third the cost Of the original.
White satin or the rich red trimmed
with brown marabou makes an effective
wrap. The drooI ing revers might be OF
embroidered chiffon, or, more elegantly,
of gold embroidered crepe de chine.
Black has it's own charm an evening
wrap, and among the new models, in
which bright and light colors vie with
each other. there are not a few black
ones that are ravshing.
One in particular should be remarked
because of it's regal appearance. It's
material is one Of the dull gold woven
black silks Of crepe de chine texture.
1t has a full back hung from the Shout
ders and cut long enough SO that when
it is draped UP to the front sections it is
still two inches longer. the side sections
being left open and finished separately
for distance Of eight inches. Across
the back is broad band of oriental
embroidery edged along the lower edge
with brown fox. Then there is fichu
collar that is also of the embroidery and
edged with fur. The sleeves have neither
embroidery nor fur about them, but are
merely turned in with the lining.

To Repair Furniture.

Dry rot is very common in old furni-
ture, and when a piece is too good to
discard the weak part can be strength
ened In this way. Scrape the rot
ten wood from the piece of furniture,
then spray the part with coal oil. Make
a mixture of beeswax, melted rosin and
sawdust and fill the holes. This will
harden and make a perfect wood cement.
If the wood is dark mahogany color. add
some melted sealing wax to the mixture:
keep it hot when applying 1t to the wood.
When vanished it does not show the
patch.
When a round breaks in a chair do not
remove the back or leg Of the chair,
wherever the damage is done; pull the
round from the chair. repair it If possi-
bic, then with an auger make one Of the
hoes a half inch deeper. This will al
low the round to slip down into the deep
ened hole after which the opposite end
can be lifted in place and glued.
The piece should lie fiat while drying.
or the round will slip out Of place. This
saves the trouble Of removing other parts
to remedy one small break.

To Fathers and Mothers.
BY RUTH CAMERON.

lit is true that / am an alien. But
my SONNY son is Themistocles. "-Eu
terpe.
A mother came to me the other day
complaining bitterly about her eighteen
year-old daughter.
1t seems that when the mother was a
little girl she loved books and study and
dreamed as her most precious dream
that some day she would go to college
to give up even finishing her high school
course. 1t was very bitter disappoint-
ment and naturally made her prize edu-
cation even more highly, as We always
do the good things we miss.
And so it was that when this woman
went into a home of her own and one
day they laid her baby girl in her arms.
her first thought was, she shall have
the finest education In the land" And
SO the mother began to dream her
dream of college all over again, for this
precious new incarnation of herself
OF course, you know the rest. After
eighteen years Of saving and planning
and dreaming on the mothers part, the
girl does not want to go to college. To
her it is unjust and unreasonable that
her mother should insist on tying her
down to four more years of the study she
hates. To the mother it Is the most
bitter trial of her life: she sees her
daughter throwing away what to her is
she endures the disappointment OF her
dreams a second time.
Only those who have had some such
experience in their lives can know how
much tragedy is wrapped up in that
simple story.
The extent to which fathers and moth
ers enter into their childrens lives is
both beautiful and terrible.
1t is truly wonderful to see how much
personal pride, how much renewed am
bition they feel in these refncarna tons
Of themselves.
There is a woman who lives near me
whose little daughter has a very fine
musical talent l enjoy hearing the
little girl play, but 1 enjoy even more
watching the mothers face fairly glow
with happiness as she sits and rocks and
listens The mother has had many losses
and disappointments. She was bred to
life of culture. luxury and ease. She
is living a painfully narrow and toilsome
existence And yet, as she sits there
rocking and listening to the second gen.
GRAFTON fulfilling her own dreams of mu-
steal accomplishment. she looks perfectly
happy. 1 would give much to be able to
paint her portrait then.
Young people. you cannot realize too
keenly how much it means to the older
folks to have you fulfill their dreams.
But you older folks. you also cannot
realize too we'll that young people have
their own lives to live They are a part
of you, you say. All. yes, but remember
that they are partly-and the bigger
part-themselves.
Grant that they may be willing and
able to fulfill those unfulflled dreams
and ambitions of yours.
But grant also that you may have for
bearance and patience and understanding
when that is not possible.

Saving and Investing for the
Thrifty.
The Money Saving Proposition.
By JOHN VI. OSKISON.

I saw a cartoon the other day which
expressed the saving idea in a way that
could be grasped by any one. 1t had
point and an appeal to the man who
talks in words of one and two syllables.
1 should like to see it spread over the
country in the way that some of the car
ICONS illustrating the dangers Of tuber-
culosis and flies have been made known.
That cartoon was in two pictures. The
first showed young man wearing a
spotted vest, smoking q cigarette, and
pointing to the entrance of a build -nS

Paid on Deposits. Under the picture
We're these words, quoted from the young
mans speech:

LITTLE JOURNEYS INTO
THE FASHION LAND

So far as novelty in the fur market is
concerned, it is more a matter of skin
than Of shape this season, but the peltry
is remarkable for its attractive finish
the art Of fur dressing having attained
to such perfection Of late that one would
imagine the furriers must be beginning
to regret their own cleverness. Indeed
Inferior furS are now SO beautifully
dressed that it no longer seems worth
while to spend a fortune on Russian sa-
BILE, chinchilla or ermine, when skunks
marmot, squirrel and even the humble
rabbit lend themselves so admirably to
our purposes and are so soft to wear and
SO pretty to look at. Even the rat, they
say-though that is too nasty to be be-
heved-supplies nowadays soft and
dressy fur.
Anyhow, if not the rat, there are plenty
of other curious animals called on to do
yeoman service to the fur trade. Last
year it was the monkey that was reck-
oned among the novelties and this sea-
son sees this new and sturdy fur estab-
lished while bear and wolf are COM
paratively ancient favorites. The opos-
sum still persists, and, though it is not
specially beautiful, it has a certain sue
cess in the trimming of other peltry.
Pony skin. with it's soft MORE dressing,
is highly popular for coats. and. having
clad ourselves of late in the harmless
squirrel, We are now more militant and
disport ourselves In leopard skin coats
with beaver collars, the effect being, to
tell the truth, more striking than it is
pleasing.
There Is certainly much ingenuity shown
in the matching of the skins, especially
when they are set off by a footband and
collar and cuffs of the fur reversed, but
they are not pretty, and one rather gets
the impression that the wearer has come
out in her carriage rug turned outside in.
The other day some one said: Should
we hobble or should wobble this sea-
SOM" 1t is extraordinary how those who
cater for us seem unable to make up
their mind, and one house offers to our
attention at one and the same time hoppy
draperies In which we founder around,
exaggerated panniers that wobble about

of the French, with draperies tied In

the matter of slimness to the shoulders
and the waist.

Fashionable FadS.

1t is a good idea this of laying aside
the bridal bouquet and taking a fan in
stead. for the wedding reception in warm
weather makes the cooling effect Of the
fan a pleasant resource.
A new idea in jewelry is to set stones
of various colors in such a way that they
represent, though somewhat remotely
tartan effects. They are used for earrings
rings, bracelets and brooches. and the
darker colored gems, such as topaz, sap
phire and emerald. are relieved by rims
of pure white diamonds.
