ure Of the wearer.
Figure 2 is a similar girdle in a
narrower and heavier ribbon, It Is a
gay Roman striped affair to be worn
with cloth or other afternoon gowns
and with street dresses. Its buckle
is smaller and an oval form. The end
is turned under, forming a three-inch
loop. Very little ribbon is required
for this, about three-quarters of a yard
for the average waist.
One Of the prettiest designs is pic
tured in Figure 3. 1t is a plain girdle
Of black satin ribbon having two ends
finished with plaid ribbon. 1t is boned
at the gathered ends and fastened
with hooks and eyes. The plaid rib
bon is machine stitched to the end
with white silk thread.
The plaid sash in Figure 4 is one Of
the smartest of the new designs. The
buckle at the waist is made of silk in
the prevailing color Of the plaid and
a second smaller buckle fastens the
hanging loop and end together.
A more expensive ribbon is used for
the next model than appears in any
Of the others. In Figure 3 a silk and

ground in satin with roses In subdued
colors and foliage in blurred outlines

KNICK- KNACKS FOR CHRISTMAS

The question that perplexes US at
Christmas time more than any other
except one-is What shall | get for
herr" And the exception is, What
shall / get for him?" Every year
brings in a lot Of novelties in dress
accessories, house a~dornnients and
furnishing, jewslry and all the thou
sand and one things that women re-
quire, SO that selecting a present for
women, or girls is a matter of choos-
ing one from among the many fasci-
mating novelties displayed in the
shops.
Fashion helps us out this year; such
is the fad for sashes and girdles that
everybody wants not one but several.
So let when In doubt buy a sash"

m%endously popular and beautiful dress
accessories.
Seven new models In sashes and
girdles are shown here.
Examples Of all the popular new
ribbons appear in the sashes pictured
here. In Figure l, a wide, soft, MESA
line is shown which makes the most
graceful IT girdles. This one is in a
deep rose color. The end of the girdle

an inch ard a half wide, and a tuck
OF the same width. Back of this are
two rows Of shirring. A buckle is

A gay ribbon in a broken plaid and
new color Is pictured in Figure s. This
is dark gray with blue and rose and
green in markings and border. The
buckle Is In green velvet.
A plain tailored sash with plated

popular Of all the new ideas. 1t has
a novel finish. A single end overlaps
the girdle (Which Is stiffened with y
small piece Of buckram at this point.
The end Is laid in a shallow plat fast
ened with small silk covered buttons
and a finish in the shape of two mar
row rufles is sewed under the ribbons
to the buckram.
Narrow brocaded ribbons and many
wide Dresdens appear among the dres-
sier models. But above all the three

the fancy of fashions devotees.

bow of velvet or silk ribbon. Buttons,
too, play a part In their makeup.
Such collars should be boned at the
sides and back. They fasten either
with tiny hooks and eyes or beauty
pins.
Very elegant little cravats Of velvet
ribbon serve as a background for me-
dallions of hand-crocheted lace. These
are worm by all the grown-ups, young
or old, and make most acceptable
Christmas gifts. The medalllons are
In the Irish lace patterns and very dur
able. They will outwear the bit Of vel
vet, and stand laundering week in and
out. The same medallions may be
tackled to cravats Of different colors
from time to time. Bright green vel
vet ribbon, black and also vivid red
are favorite Just now.
Small fiat cravat bows Of silk are
liked. They serve as a background
for the new brooches and bar pins in
novelty jewelry.
Neckwear will help out the Christ
mas shopper and any one who has
time to make up these attractive fin
Ishing touches to the toilette at home
will be able to gladen many hearts at
Christmas time with little expenditure
Of money.

There was one disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. It
Is known that these included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal friends Of
the bride and groom and Of their fam
lilies and by admirers Of President
Wilson. Handsome presents were
sent by both the senate and the house,
that Of the latter being a diamond la
valliere which Miss Genevieve Clark,
daughter Of the speaker, bought for
the representatives in New York.
Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal
friends and the number was kept down
close to four hundred. The list was
pared and revised several times, and
as has been said, the operation result
ed in many heartburnings. From the
house Of representatives circle, for
instance, the only guests were Speaker
Champ Clark, Mrs. Clark and Miss
Genevieve Clark, Marjory Leader I'm
derwood and Mrs. Underwood, and
Minority Leader Mann and Mrs. Mann.
As might be expected, the streets
outside the White House werea as
crowded as the police would permit
with curious persons eager to watch
the arrival and departure Of the guests

most popular Of styles. Plain or dot
ted net alone, or net combined with
shadow lace, makes the body of the
collar and f1schu as a rule.
Plaitings are usually OF net and are
unhemmed on many Of the flschues.
The finest and ARREST of machine made
laces, as white as snow, in shadow lace
and other patterns, make 1t possible
to produce these ~neck-pieces at 4 trifO
Of cost.
For wear with either dresses or
coats the sailor collar with fischu ends
is made In the designs pictured here.
Plain fine net is liked for edging the
all-over lace. 1t is used as a fiat bind
ing in place of a hem and the addition
of a fine cord Of silk make an elegant
finish at the top of the binding.
Little buttons, nearly always cover
ed with silk, are liked on neckwear
and they appear in all the designs.
Two jabots with silk turnover col
lars are handsome designs for older
women, These collars are boned at
the sides and often adorned with small
sparkling rhinestone buttons or silk
covered buttons matching the collar.
Laces and nets are used for the jabots
and when very sheer the plaitings are
made double-that is, n falling over
another, at shown in the picture.
High, close-htting collars OF net and
lace are liked by young people. They
are easy to make and a small bit OF
net and lace will furnish material for
