TEMPORARY HEATING PLANT
 FOR WoMEN's COLLEGE.
Is to be Ereeted-PIans Have Been,
 Made by Architects.

A temporary heating plant, to be constructed of stone and wood is to be built at once on the New London site of Connecticut College for Wo- men. Working plans have been pre- pared by the college architects, and bids for the erection of the structure will be sought immediately. A special meeting of the building committee of the trustees has been called for Friday .afternoon to take action in the mat ter.
 The heating plan will be erected 200 feet west of Mohegan avenue and 50 feet south of Reservoir street. It will be connected with the other col lege buildings by underground tun- ,nels. The cost of construction will be lcomparatively small, it being antici- represent the interest on the sum that would have been requisite to build a permanent heating and power plant. It is believed that the proposed struc- ture will be sufficient to meet all re- quirements for several years.
 Excellent progress is being made on the first group of buildings. Plant hall is in readiness for the second floor to be laid. The first floor is be- ing laid in Allyn hall and work is un- science building. Today for the first time the weather interefered with op- -erations. It was so cold at the site Tuesday morning that it was decided to quit for the day. At 3 a. m. the thermometer registered above and at TT o'clock it vas only five degrees

 Requests for copies of the prospec- tive courses of study at the college are also arriving almost daily. These have not been fully determined as yet but it is probable that they will be within q week or two. It is also likely that before long selection of the faculty . to be connected with the institution at its opening next September will be made.

MO one knows the source OF all the
~ fads that women indulge in, when
1t comes to the manner of wearing
their clothes. But variety is the spice
Of life and the present generation be-
lieves in much splicing. This is evil
dent by the way in which fashions
change and is especially noticeable
when an eccentricity with no real
reason for being, becomes a fashion.
Just now there is fad for wear
ing wells, such as are classed as com
plexion veils," so that they cover
only half the face. Nearly all of
these wells are made OF large-meshed
but very fine thread silk-meshed veil
ings. Nearly all of them are black
and are bordered with row of
chenille dots at the edge. They are
narrow and just long enough to reach
about the close-fitting hats with which
they are worn.
The wells just described are the
most sensible of the varieties that are
worn In this way. They are incon-
spicuous and do not interfere with
the eyes. This cannot be said of lace
wells, rather heavy in pattern, that are
worn by more daring devotees of the
mode. One Of them is shown In the

The Bridal Trousseau.

The old idea Of providing Srides
with a score or more of gowns, wraps
and hats has quite gone by. Even the
fashionable trousseau of today con-
tains no more than dozen gowns, II
as many. Styles change so fast that
by fall the gowns for the June wed
ding, necessarily made some weeks be-
fore the ceremony, begin to look odd
Some authority has declared that the
best dressed woman In Paris buys nc
more than three new toilets each year
but the opinion may be ventured that
she is altering her last years supply
most of the time. The vast assert
ments of lingerie have also dwindled

required.-Leslie's.

illustration which Is given hera
A praiseworthy effort at harmony is
carried out in wells selected to match
the prevailing color with which the
hat Is to be worn. This Is seen again
in wells selected to match colored fac
ings in black hats. In colored veil
ings the amethyst shades, natter blue,
and taupe are found to be most be-
coming and are therefore favorites
among nets. The latest yelling dis
plays cream-white, Shetland and fig
ured nets with q lace pattern border.
This pattern is outlined with black
silk thread or embellished with en-
broidered dots. The best effects in
veilings are those In which the mesh
is simple and borders are worked out
in chenille dots.
In chiffon wells, which ara worn for
protection, the choice OF colors 10
much wider than In face wells OF net.
One may indulge In any sort OF blue,
all the amethyst and many Of the
green shades. Taupe is great favor
lite, as are gray and white. These
quieter colors predominant, but occa-
sionally cerise and other brilliant hues
seem to suit exactly the style of the
wearer. JULIA BoTToMLEx

TIE most satisfactory wraps for
j demi-season wear are those cut
along the simplest lines. And for the
cool days of autumn those of taffeta
silk will be found appropriate for all
sorts Of wear. AS taffeta is more pill
able than other weaves of silks used
for wraps, coats made of it are cut
somewhat shorter than coats of
heavier materials. Plain silks and
satins are often used as a trimming
and for making collars and cuffs on
coats of figured taffeta. And this order
Is reversed when figured silks or satins
are used for garnishing plain taffeta.
Among the prettiest of the wraps de.
veloped with taffeta are those made of
a good quality of this silk in a change
able weave. Coats of this kind are
prettiest when finished with collar and
cuffs Of velvet Combinations of dark
green and black, or royal blue and
black, or blue and green. are examples
of those that are at once brilliant and
elegant. The bronze tones are effective.
and all of these can be finished with
collars and GUNS or The prodnmir a ting
color in the silk or with black velvet.
For dressy wear coats of taffeta are
prettily finished with ruffies OF chiffon,
short capes of lace, or with silk nets.
In the coat shown in the picture given
here the silk is of black taffeta over
which small flower sprays are scat
tered. 1t Is trimmed with ruffies of
plain black satin. A short rounded

is finished with ruffle like that OF bot
tom of coat. A draped collar Of satin
finishes the neck
Coats of this kind are lined With
lightweight qualities and soft weaves
Of satin or silk. When plain taffata
in dark color is used for the coat
bright Roman-striped silks make at
tractive Innings. Broad stripes in con-
trasting colors, as black and green, or
black and white, are also used, with
black and white a great favorite.
A good quality of taffeta will make
a between-seasons wrap that Will give
much service. AS days grow colder
additional warmth is possible by wear
ing knitted vests under the coat. Tar
feta wraps are cut on loose and easy
hanging lines which a small under
garment does not interfere with.
Aside from it's wearing qualities tat
feta is most to be recommended be-
cause It will not harbor dust. But only
the goou 4valities are to be relied
upon for durability. The cheaper taf-
fetas are all right for garment which
is to see only short service. One does
not expect much of Inexpensive
dresses In the way of wear. Little
coats of the cheaper grades Of taffeta
may be made to do service for few
weeks in the fall.
