risk of nightmare, the sheet must fol- low suit and the bedspread conform to the general scheme. Of course 1t fol- lows that no one with sense of the fitness of things would pair towel powdered with snowflake pattern with another decorated with chaste border of humming birds.
 A similar unity of thought must be preserved in the table linen There are those who prefer to eat off cloth checked with the familiar blue and white of the kitchen duster, with nap kins en suite and orange tableware as an additional fillip for disordered di gestion. A more numerous class pre- fer the less sensational cloth of white damask, but here, too, the chances of going wrong are infinite. A tablecloth reproducing the BayeuX tapestry may be a beautiful thing in itself. Allied with napkins following the Adam school of decoration it produces dys pepsia in the napery precision. No wonder the bridegroom is willing to hand over his responsibilities in this matter to the subtle female mind, more capable of grasping the value of the apparently unimportant.

a For the Autumn Bride x

ONCE, long ago, in the days of the
 spinning wheel and hand loom, the early years of maiden's life were oc- cupied in getting together to the ac- compartment of much good advice, all the things considered meet and neces- sary for those about to venture into matrimony. But now everything is changed. To begin with, the whole business in these strenuous times is often compressed into a few weeks, sometimes even into a few days, filled with fierce excitement.
 Buying the rousseau and choosing the household linen are important points in every wedding, whether it is big or little, whether it takes place in hurry or is arranged only after due deliberation.
 At one time the bride was definitely charged with the responsibility for

BEAUTIFUL HAND BAGS

THERE is a surprising variety of novel hand bags, both in leather and silk, shown in all the shops just now. The silk bags are usually of @ shade to match the hat or gown or of some harmonizing tone. One attrac- tive little silk bag, which would har- monize with 8 frock of either navy blue or white. was made of white silk, over whose surface appeared flights of blue birds. Bags made of navy blue silk are numerous, and many bags are of all white silk.
 There are also novel combinations of leather and silk in bags, as we'll as combinations of leather and silk belts. Charming belts and bags are formed of beautiful brocaded silks with trim innings of patent leather in black or white or color. Belts and bags of cot con materials, with trimmings of pat ent leather, are also obtained.
 There has been new favor accorded to patent leather, and many of the most recent bags have been fashioned from this leather. It does not wear so well as many of the other feathers, but 1t has a brightness foreign to any of the. others, youthful air, and, made up in attractive shape, it certainly de- serves popularity, even if 1t does be- come shabby rather quickly.
 Many of the smartest designs are in black and white. One, for instance was made of black patent leather trim med with a large round shaped patch of white kid on each side. The handle was of the black leather.
 A bag built much upon the same lines was of white kid trimmed with three straps of black patent leather Another bag was made of black patent leather and trimmed with a strap o1 the white kid extending from the tor to the bottom of the bag. The straI gradually widened toward the bottom.

a saucy buckle will be worn by those who can afford them-not that these hats are so expensive. but the severity of line and style is so trying for the average woman. Tn fact, these may De said to be designed to please the youthful and to tantalize the matrons for they are very smart and chic.
 The new chemisettes for autumn wear are "chokered." often buttoned iu the back and frequently hand emq broidered, especially those made of or \ gandie.
 Neckwear of this sort will be broadly demanded this season for wear with all sorts of frocks, suits and gowns. n for no other reason than a protection to the neck from dye discolorations which sometimes occur when furs arf worn, these choker collar chemisettei will be acceptable.
 French dressmakers as well al American are using these collars madI of lace, net, batiste or organdiee ani duplicating the styles in rich silI failles, damasks and old satins for veal with suits and one piece dresses.
 This, of course, indicates the possi bility of a vogue for waistcoats to en| | sue.

YOUTHS ALLY, ACTIVITY

HUMAN life is meant for activit
 not for idleness. The minute a, tivity ceases mental and physic| growth ceases and old age threaten, Inertia-a polite word for laziness-id dicates degenerating inactivity. Rl member this the next time yon ta. the street car when you are witrl walking distance. Remember 1t ~ you have a strong inclination to l around the veranda instead of getti out for a game of tennis or a swi Remember every time you succumb the temptation not to bestir yourself K any form of activity you give "come on" sign to old age. And a wastes not a minute in responding k your call.
 There is only one way you can reta youth. 1t is by activity. Think of men and women you know who he passed the forty. fifty or sixty and remain youthful! Aren't they q of activity? And then think of the mi and women of the same age who Ol0 III DOuy anu <hANh AAAH W folk who prefer to sit and loll abd and put off till tomorrow the work today?
 If you wish to keep young don't your vigilance over that deadly ind nation to be lazy languish. It is easy not to do, so easy to accept p personal comforts at the sacrifcd mental stamina and physical har hood. It is so easy to baby oursel into slothfulness of body and mind is so easy to hypnotize ourselves clever excuses for inactivity. Perh it is the rain or the cold or heada or a tired feeling or a little embfoid that isn't at all necessary-anythine all, so long as it is an excuse.

A Defense of : HOOpskirts
ts+.+i*.+.+.+s+.*.+.+s+s+'

HYEARS ago. when hoops went out
 of style, the last was as small as could be worn, the place of the slender wires being taken, for perhaps ten inches in front by tapes one and three fourths inches broad. Dresses were comfortable width, and the hoop took the place of starched skirts This is the testimony of an old fashioned lady who would like to see them return She continues:
 "The ironing of many starched skirts was avoided; also their unhealthy weight. For those who worked in hot rooms the advantage was very great In high wind the hoop prevented the dress and skirts from twisting around the ankles, and any unprejudiced ob- server would agree that the style was much more modest and becoming than the very tight or very full skirt. If the gay and giddy prefer a dress which 'clings' or pillows a multitude would bless the manufacturer who would make a hoopskirt such as I have de- scribed. If elastic not too stiff, should take the place of tapes, it might be an improvement, but a small hoopskirt, MT. Modiste, do let us have"
 Our illustrated twentieth century hoopskirt is of net, elastic bands and featherboning. It is especially de- signed to wear under the new fluffy skirts which stand out in the most bouffant fashion. Gathered net is cleverly arranged over the feather boning, so that it can be' slipped out Lwhen the skirt is laundered, This new

providing all the linen for use in the home over which she was to rule, as well as her own personal things. Now it is a debatable point whether the man shall assume the burden. But which ever way the matter is settled, and 1t has way of being solved chiefly by reference to the relative circum- stances of the parties, the bride elect usually has a large say in the matter of choice, and it is really not so easy as might appear at first sight.
 For instance, the problem of the towel is quite a knotty one. Unsus- pected pitfalls surround the choice Of table linen. The even tenor of the matrimonial way may be badly ruft1ed by paying insufficient attention to the harmony which should exist between the sheet, the pillowslip and the bedspread Is the pillowslip trimmed with cluny lace? Then, to avoid the
New Britain herald., 1915-10-14

odd shaped yoke are other interesting features The skirt is slightly longer than some models, just escaping high button boots.
 Our two fall turbans give newest hints, one of the all feather hat. It is of pure white hackle, with two smart wings, and may be worn appropriately with a suit or a frock. The other is clever adaptation of the Russian idea. It is featured here in krimmer and trimmed with a beautiful wing that somehow suggests an airship in Its graceful outlines.
 Even the turban is being elevated to a slanting, coiffure sliding position, with the point of the angle-if one may | be pardoned for designating any DOT tion of the curved brim of a hat an angle-perilously near the right eye.
 The vogue for sailor shapes is being usurped by the poke styles. which at this time have advanced into a bewil- dering variety of styles.
 Hatters plush is a great favorite for this seasons hats and is combined with velvet, taffeta or fur.
 Taffeta made hats, shirred into toque and hat shapes made of black or colors and trimmed with fur strips and cut steel ornaments, are a Paris derived style sponsored by Reboux.
 Velvet hats are always to the fore. The average woman will choose a toque for wear this season nine times out of ten. Velvet ribbons and beautifully embroidered, plaided or novelty de- signed ribbons will trim these dainty confections in millinery. which, by the way, never seem to fail to become every woman who wears one.
 Fur trimmed and fur made hats will enjoy an equally popular vogue. The last named are being offered in Glen garry cap shapes.

WASH and leave in bowl of cold
 water one pound of smallish mushrooms, uniform size, cutting off the ground ends of the stems with a silver knife. Any other will blacken the meat Fresh mushrooms need not be peeled. Every fiber of them is nour- ishing.
 Chop two tablespoonfuls of butter, stirring in enough flour to make thick paste. Remove the mushrooms from the bowl of cold water to an agate or aluminium saucepan, keeping what wa ter clings to them. Over these damp mushrooms scatter dabs of the butter and flour mixture, so that, melting, it soaks down into the gills. Dust the top with salt and paprika to taste, and over all sprinkle three teaspoonfuls of table sherry. Put the saucepan tightly covered. over Q slow fire. This is the
New Britain herald., 1915-10-14

crux of the whole technique. It Is this slow action of heat that works the chemical charm of the incomparable flavor. An asbestos mat over low flame is safe, but a blue flame that threatens almost to flicker out is surer, for much heat will ruin the delicate flavor. Leave the pan alone for twen- ty minutes. Lest you be tempted to peek in (and let the delicious aroma escapeD go off and read or play the piano. At the end of twenty minutes stir the mushrooms with a silver spoon, so the flour does not catch" and with a slightly stronger flame cook them ten more minutes, stirring. At the end of half an hour your mushrooms will float in a rich, mahogany colored gravy as near to ambrosia as mortals come.

 best suited to your own comfort and convenience. Some persons find that the effort of rising for a morning bath is a drain on the vitality; others find the morning bath @ preparation for the whole day and are too tired at bedtime to take the bath which proves restful to others. In the matter of temperature, too, tastes and needs vary. A Cold plunge Is good only for those whom 1t leaves in a glow of warmth; a lukewarm plunge, or cold sponge, or a hot bath followed with cold water is more invigorating to others.
 For the woman who is really run down, however, the afternoon bath, if she can possibly find time for it about o'clock, will prove to be the most re- freshing. This bath should be warm and should be followed by g cool snnnge or spraE

 to most beautiful panne velvet used for suitings, combinations with taffetas and satins for afternoon frocks and corduroys for children's winter coats, our illustration of another use for this favorite material is especially timely. This elegant evening wrap of rose panne has a deep square collar such as Cheruit delights in. Massive folds of velvet hang in rich drapes on either side, and one corner is finished with an elaborate silk tassel. The front fastens with a large ornamental clasp. Lined with soft figured silk in deep cream color, this evening wrap answers the need of an opera coat, it's voluminous- ness affording sufficient warmth.
 Afternoon frocks are rivaling popu- lar summer sports garments as cool days drive womankind nearer the bridge table from the golf links. Our illustration is designed for street wear, however, as buttoned top boots and the chic little velvet tricorn attest.
