 brhe coats to the new two piece suits
 are of various types and shapes. A large proportion are rather short,
 many showing waistcoats of silk or velvet handsomely embroidered or of some new fabric. Another style in coats is three-Quarter length that has closer lines and hugs the form

SERVE SWEETsOMELETS WITH FISH DINNERS

A SWEET omelet of some special A kind makes an attractive dessert, especially suitable for fish dinners, which are not usually so nourishing as the ordinary ones Of meat. The eggs used in these omelets help to make up the difference.
 Peach oneIet
 A simple dessert is made by spread ing plain oEne1et with fresh or pre- served fruit. jam or jelly just before may be used Prepare an omelet in the ordinary fashion, adding just a pinch or two of sugar (no more or it will be too sweet) in place of pepper and only one-half, or one-third the usual amount of salt Just before 1t is ready to fold spread the fruit over it in slices After folding serve piping hot Powdered sugar if desired may be sprinkIed over the surface of the omelet and a redhot salamander pass ed over it to give it a brown glaze.
 Quince on1eIet.
 For a Quince oneIet add half a table spoonful of sugar and a scant half wineglassful of brandy to every four eggs. Melt an ounce of butter in a frying pan and pour the onaeIet over the surface. Just before folding spread over it a tablespoonful of melted quince jelly and few pieces of pre- served quince. After folding sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
 Using Apricot or Other Jam.
 Gouffe gives a rule for oneIet with apricot jam Prepare 1t in the same way as the peach omelet- A plain omelet prepared with fresh straw berries or strawberry or raspberry jam is very good. Fresh raspberries are not so good for the purpose. Currant jelly in place of jam is also excellent Even grape jelly has been used. and honey a1so-

 Clothes may stin be made by the artist hand. but they must be of the extrayagantly simple sort.
 The average girl who goes to college is in neither of the classes mentioned. She is not vulgarly rich or hopelessIy pennfless. She's Financially medium, and she will be yearning to know just now what the fall styles are to be so she can cut her cloth accordingly.
 It is a bit early in the fashion game to tell exactly what will be worn by the fashion leaders, but Miss High brow won't care if she's not just in the latest style.

TROUssEAU SHOPPING

GATHERING a trousseau together
 is a fascinating, though a some what fatiguing, task The sensible prospective bride decides before she begins her shopping just how much she intends to spend on her rousseau and how much more she can spend if she is sorely tempted-and she does not buy nearly as many things nova days as in the past. because fashions change so quickly.
 She spends a generous amount on her wedding gown, and if she changes into a going away gown after the ceremony and reception. that also is often rather elaborate. for the cl1s- tom of going to a hotel for a day or two before the honeymoon trip has brought about a change. The going

and are loose and almost baggy at the wrists. where they are finished with rather deep cuffs.
 For the best frock pretty models are in crepe de chine. One especially to
 be recommended to the college girls attention is of a red currant shade and cut in a "soutane" shape, buttoned from top to bottom with tiny buttons
 of the same stuff, which are also found
 on the sleeves. The cut is especially
 new, being without any seams under
 the arms, a characteristic which has
 gained it the title of "chauve souris,"
 or bats With this frock is worn a
 bayadere sash of pongee. printed with
 an eastern design whose iridescent
 tones are repeated in the heavy bead
 passenenterie which finishes off the
 sash ends and in the tiny bow which trims the tulle guimpe.
 The khockabout coat Is a necessity
 in the college outfit, and a good looking one is pictured of ginger brown velours montagnac, new material that Is very smart. The coat is novel in style, having an elongated peplum attached pocket and sleeve trimmings are par ticu1arly noteworthy. A velvet hat trimmed with gold cord and nunidia feather is worn with the coat. ] For wear under this coat and in the schoolroom is the natty little gown in the cut, of a blue and green plaid. The yoke is made in vest style and buttons 1 high up to the throat, where a little turnover, collar of embroidery adds a
 final touch. It is smart in the school
 room to wear colonial pumps, or suede patent leather may be worn.
 1 The toque of veIours in hunter green seen among the illustrations makes a
 comfortable piece of headgear for the college girl who indulges in skating
 and other outdoor sports. This cap sits well on the head, and it's only i ornamentation is silk tassel which falls gracefully over the sides. l These are only a few fashion sign posts to direct the college girl on her ! mod1sh way.

 In some of our colleges and in many fashionable boarding schools most decided ban has been put upon too much finery, and even the richest and most influential pupils are obliged to observe this rule.

away costume is generally a handsome three piece affair in noire, charneuse or tameta instead of the severely tailor ed frock for travelling, which also figures importantly in the rousseau
 One or two handsome evening frocks and three simple ones are quite enough for the average bride, and for one of these a white lace is a sensible choice.
