Artificial Corsage Bouquets
Should GLOW Seasons Changes.

What shall be do with our artificial flowers
this winter? The woman who has acquired
veritabls hoard Of little blossoms bought
sirgly or in dozens during the last year, and
made into little round punches ringed with
leaves, Is regarding these with no small dis
content. now that the time has apparently
come when they are no longer fashionable.
As a matter of fact We have given up the
tiny punches of cherry blossoms, forget-me-
nots. and Scotch roses introduced cheek-by-
Jowl in compact circle. and have taken to
the big velvet flowers, which make a far
better show and are more useful TO the dress
maker. These are to carry all before them
in the realm Of evening attire, and the ques-
ton is already being asked which flower viii
have the greatest vogue.

The well dressed woman TO whom the VEL

one point always m mind when choosing her
bouquet.
The blossom in question must always be in
season.
Just now she is wearing a clump Of two or
three purple and wine red China asters, a
couple Of tawny velvet chrysanthemums. or
bouquet Of mountain ash berries, which

The craze for stones. both real and artl-

The newest girdle is proof positive that
they have other equally important roles
to play.
This consists OF triangular slabs Of semi
precious stones. such as jade and rock crys-

are placed different ways so to form a
kind OF square with every two slabs, and
are linked together with dull. unpublished

forms the jabot. is widespread bow " of
gauffered black tulle, consisting Of two
straight ends sticking out on each side, while
the center is held down with motif of jet

With her evening frocks and her tea gowns,
the woman of today no longer thinks it nee
essary to buy slippers which are an exact
match to her toilet
She chooses instead one or other OF the
wonderful new tissues in a mixture OF gold
and color or. in lieu of that, the still more
gorgeous brocades and stamped velvets.
Some Of these brocades and tissues have
the old fashioned wallpaper and chintz pat
terms, reduced in miniature as though seen
through the wrong end Of a telescope, and
patterned with the rather crude representa-
lions Of tropical birds and gaily tinted fruit
Others are in a two color scheme, while
the tissues often reproduce as many shades

slippers are made are not little striking.
what can be said Of the buckles which adorn
them?
In Paris one can run up to any figure IN
choosing these accessories. but those who
cannot indulge in the real thing content
themselves with limitations. For instance,
there are great slabs OF some colored stone
hinged round with jewels or mock dia-
monds, while there are Louis XVI. bows

large pear shaped pendant, which is cut
into countless facets. and which glitters and
flashes and sparkles with every movement

sparkling stones with the centers filed in
with ruched tissue TO match the material
of which the shoes are made while in other
cases a touch of black velvet is introduced.
