The sentimental side of the ca
reer OF one hobo in beating his
way from pillar to post, was pa

Fabrics OF The Past
The Fabrics OF Today
Velours and Ratine with PluSf=Like
Pile for Daytime Wear. Brocades
For Evening Gowns

selves all the sumptuousness OF CEN
tury ago are the fabrics used for eve
ming gowns.
On heavy silk, thin wolfe, chiffon or
velvet, gold and silver threads are
woven into the brocade designs. There
ar also velvet brocaded voiles and
chiffons with a bit of gold or silver in
or outlining the design. These bro
cads are not stiff as of old but soft
and pliable, draping most artistically.
Black satin, faille and velvet hold
a strong place among evening gowns.
These are lightened by the use of rib
bon sashes in vivid shades, as well as
by the wonderful Roman striped rib
bons and silks which are very popu-
lar. Some of the newest of these
show the autumn note of their combi-
nations of russell, brown, green and
dull red with always stripe of black.
This new color scheme is also to be
seen in the new taffetas. Taffeta, by
the way, is used great deal in COM
bination with serge and gabardine
For the younger generation come
chiffon voiles with six or eight-inch
satin stripe in self color woven on the
edge. TUNES and fiounces are made
with this stripe on the edge and with
the plain wolfe for the rest of the frock
These voiles come in all the light
shades so popular for evening wear,
soft blues shell pinks, varying shades
of green and in a yellow that so close
ly resembles gold that it hardly seems
possible that it is not a metal cloth.
The costumes at present demand
many accessories in the way of neck
wear, and the present tendency in
these dainty lace and organdy affairs
is toward the crepe effects. Fichu
effects are also to be seen and are an
attractive addition to a dark frock OF
serge, gabardine or satin. On the
popular dark blue frocks are to be
seen cuffs and collars in yellow crepe
or ecru linen. One set of ecru liner

that during the past week enough or

NEW YORK, Nov. 12-There are
far less new fabrics upon the market
this season than last. The variety,
however, does not seem to be lessened
for it merely means that instead of
the new we have gone back to many
of the fabrics which have been con-
sidered passe for many seasons.
Velour de LANES and ratine are re-
cent novelties which have held their
own. This year they have become
thicker and the pile of the velour de
laine is heavier, making it seem al
most plush like.
Broadcloth is another fabric that
has a renewed vogue this year, and
many suits and costumes are to be
