BROWN HATS POPULAR.

The brown and tete de negre hats have
quite superseded black. and those not or
namented with a feather mount bore
fetching little clusters Of fruit, rosy
checked apples, unripe lemons, punches OF
raisins and other heralds of the Thanks

SWEATER AND STOCKINGS MATCH
The attention OF those who could spare
n little time from the horses was drawn
toward a smart silk sweater In the two
tones of brown and green. This was
really more of a coat than sweater with
a collar and cuffs or civet cat. 1t was not

NEWEST MODELS IN TAFFETA.

The newest models are being fashioned
from taffeta and as the spring modes
come in more and more taffeta will be
seen II may seem early to talk Of spring
when the first snow furries are just being
heralded but already the women who are
planning to spend the greater part of the
winter in the South are ordering their
wsrdrobes, and it is an acknowledged fact
that they are ordering many taffeta
froeks The woman. therefore, who is
planning a bridge frock to do service in
the spring will do we'll to heed this
prophecy.
One of the most comforting features OF
the bridge frock is that it is an all-season
dress. Developed. as it generally is in a
silken material II is quite as much in de-
mand in the hot months Of summer as
during the frigid weather of the winter.
The new taffetas are fascinating fabrics.

RECIPE FOR BRIDGE FRocK.

Given one Of the slimpsey, silky stuffs
in one Of the new queer tints, add a few
unusual touches, a strip of fur or metallic
trimming. and you have the recipe for
successful bridge frock. A new neck fix
ing or a sash of a contrasting color and
the gown of yesterday becomes the frock
Of to-day: change the waist, and 1t will
become the dress of tomorrow, for, as
the modes are developing, the composite
costume will be more in demand this
spring than ever. If. for instance, the
bridge frock has been developed in vel
vet as nine out of ten are, II is com
parstively simple undertaking to change
the velvet bodice for one in taffeta, and,
presto there is the bridge frock of to-
morrow.

'BOLERO BLOUSE
NEW FEATURE
Interest in 1t Caused
by Popularity of
Jacket Dress.

The increasing interest displayed in the
three-piece costumes and in the jacket
dresses has brought about correspond
ing revival OF interest in the blouse. For
blouse displaying feature like the
bolero makes the combination of skirt
and shirtwaist look remarkably like one
Of the popular jacket dresses, and the
shops are beginning to sell blouse3 OF
heavy materials, like velvet, in various
colors. Heretofore there has been prac-
tically no sale except in few specially
shops, for blouse that was not of the
lingerie order, or of crepe de chine or
tafeta. This winter women have discov-
cred that a very presentable three-piece
costume can be evolved by matching the
skirt with a velvet blouse.

SKIRT COLOR CARRIED UP.

1t is not always simple undertaking
to match the skirt in one of these velvet
blouses, but SO many Liberties are taken
In blending color that slight shading Is
permitted when a decided contrast Is not
desired. Very often, only the lower part
Of the blouse is of the velvet, the upper
part and the sleeves being of chiffon or
a sheer silk, and there is no denying
the fact that blouses which continue the
color line of the skirt are far more be-
coming to the average figure than those
which chop off the line at the waist Some
times an easy transition is made by means
OF the peplum, or basque. When the pep
lum was first introduced ii did not meet
with a cordial welcome, for at that time
women guarded jealousy against any ad-
ditional fulness over the hips or around
the waist, but 1t stayed more or less in
vogue until to-day, when it is In COM
plete harmony with the gradually increas-
ing bouffant effect over the hips.
This effect was cleverly accomplished
on a French blouse OF chiffon. The chiffon
matched the color of the skirt, or, at
least, as nearly as thin and thick ma
terial ever match. A creamy lace basque
extended from under the arms in q curv-
ing cutaway line over the hips. &C.

SULPHUR, WINTERS COLOR.

The particular bright color note this
winter is sulphur. and it is shown on

METAL TRIMMINGS ATTRACT.

METAL TRIMMINGS Al ] KALI.
The metallic trimmings have become
popular for tins very reason; they are
striking and attract attention, and very
little Of them goes a long way. The nov
city brocades have very much the same
effect. and even better still are the new
cottons which can now be bought In this
country and are daring combinations or
color and design. The embroidered crepes

be depended upon to supply the individual

started In a costume which attracted all
ewes at Longchamps. The foundation OF
the gown was Of moss green duVetyn'
This was draped to the raised waistline
in the manner approved by fashion, the
front falling in deep pleats and forming
bouffant drapings at the side. The very
wide girdle decorated with cording and
buttons, was also OF dUvetyn, giving the
thickset appearance that has eliminated
any suggestion of a waistline From this

therefore, that they should be distin-
guished by novel trimming. This does
not mean that the gown should be loaded
down with trimming, for the little pen
wipers and other fripperies which annoy
Monsieur Poiret so intensely that he men
toned them several times in his lectures,
detract, rather than add, to the charm OF
a gown But it does mean that the TRIM

ferent. something that will at once focus
the eye and dazzle IT,

BoLERo BLOUSE FAVORED.

The basque blouse, however, has seri-
Gus rival in the bolero waist, which is the
favored mode of the hour. 1t makes lit
tie difference how the bolero lines are
produced as long as the effect is there.
Sometimes the embroidery on lace
waist will be carried out to simulate a
bolero; again, a yelling Of chiffon or net
may be arranged to give the desired ef-
feet, but more often the necessary lines
are procured by insertion or galoon. Old
gold galoon was used by we'll known
French couturier to simulate bolero on
blouse of crepe de chine. This was
mounted over fine Valenciennes lace, the
lace blousing generously over a black
satin girdle which finished in point In
the front A net frill outlined the W
shaped neck, and a deeper frill finished
the elbow sleeves, which were cut in one
piece with the bolero.
One sees quite as many short sleeves as
very long ones; in fact, the three-quarter
length is a good average. The long
bishop sleeves OF chiffon in a blouse OF
black velvet, worn recently for luncheon
at one Of the large hotels, displayed very
clearly the charm Of this style OF sleeve.
Other long Sleeves fit the arm more
closely and extend we'll over the hand:
sometimes they are held in at the wrist
by a band Of black velvet ribbon drawn
through a slide OF jewels.

Christmas Don'ts for the Home.

Do not decorate your Christmas tree
with paper, cotton, or any other in
fiammable material. Use metallic tin
sci and other non -infammable decora
lions only, and set the tree securely, so
that the children in reaching for things
cannot tip it over.
Do not use cotton to represent snow.
If you must have snow, use asbestos
fiber
Do not permit children to light or re-
light the candles while parents are not
present. They frequently set fire to
their clothing instead. The tree itself
will burn when needles have become
dry
Do not leave matches within reach of
children at Holiday time. Candles are
meant to be lighted, and if the children
can get matches they will experiment
with them. They naturally initiate
their elders.
