draperies. is an amethyst crepe Altesse. It's underdress, sligthly slit at one side, falls in irregular folds and does not look as scant as it act ually is.
 Overslxirt Folds Merge with Cape.
 About the overskirt there is con- siderable fulness, and this appearance is emphasized by the abrupt slant of it's point from the sides which are of the same length as the rear DOT tion. It's folds merge with those of a cape which shows only from the back and falls loosely from the nape of the neck, where it is laid in pleats to form a high standing turned-over collar.
 A second and very flat collar trims the bodice. whose front fulness is so caught in that it blouses chiefly at the sides of the waist line The dropping, flat effect of the bodice and the cape is continued in the sleeves, set without fulness into low-dropped, wide arm eyes. Worn with a black velvet sombrero, nothing could be more stunning for early autumn than this amethyst costume.
 Tiers Delight of Tall Women.
 Tiers have ever been the delight of the tall woman. She secretly re- joiced when founces came into fash ion, and she frankly delights in the novel way in which bands of varying width are now put upon long over skirts. Tilleul in dull surah and shirn- mering satin-the quality which catches the light at every turn of the 1>@- looking frock of the triple-tier order. The first satin band is applied at the base of the hips, the next one is placed two inches below the lower edge of the topmost one, and the final band at an equal distance, so as to come a trife below the knees and practically conceal the underskirt.
 E Sleeves in dull surah contrast sharply with a girdle and sleeveless blouse in satin, the latter opening over a white silk waistcoat, filled in with tulle folds. Fan-shaped wings, posed at regular intervals on the brim of a black satin turban, lend width to the very chic model in autumn hats.
 Fetching Costume for Young Girl.
 Few costumes could be more fetch- ing on a slender girl than this one in a dull and, a gleaming fabric.s It would also be good in voile or mar quisette and satin, and for evenings it is easy to fancy it--with the neck and the sleeves of the bodice some what changed-in white or a delicate shade of rose or blue, developed in tulle with satin.
 Designers of early autumn models are not neglecting the jeune f1lle Most appealing in collection of late importations is the dark blue taffeta souple afternoon frock.
 Its overskirt differs radically from any of those in the young girls summer wardrobe, because, while long and full and untrimmed, it falls in double box pleats from un- der a yoke draped in sash effect. This very youthful effect is further em- phasized by deeply rounded out, sleeveless bodice, worn over blouse in fiesh-colored lace, whose wired col- lar makes charming frame for high trimmed turban with a close rolled brim.
 The mother of the young girl does not limit her in the matter of blouses for the sleeveless bodice, for she knows that more than any other de- tail they freshen the costume. To this one in dark blue taffeta she will, if she is truly wise, add a second blouse in Sake tulle and a third in deep cream lace.
