CITY BUDGET TO
Be UP MONDAY
Appropriation Ordinance Is Now Be
ing Prepared by City Clerk
VI. i. Rudgren.
ESTIMATED FUND Is NOW sssLsea
VIII Re Divided Into 80 and 80 sep
arate Allotments, According
10 Needs.

Il IS entirely likely that the city
council viii have up for consideration
at the regular meeting Monday night
the appropriation ordinance. which is
now being prepared by Commissioner
NJ T. Rudgren. Mr. Rudgren announc-
81 this morning that barring delay he
would present the ordinance at that
time.
There will be on hand. according to
estimates Commissioner Rudgren has
secured. s3S4. eseIl TO conduct the
city's affairs during the coming year.
There Will be in ali between 40 and
so separate funds. Il being the policy
here TO provide for each payment on
any debt the city now owes by a sep
arate fund so that such is assured.
Whether or not there viii be a fund
for the purchase OF an moderator was
not known today. Commissioner Rud-
grcn Is estimating the amounts FOR the
funds needed in the routine conduct
OF city affairs first. and IN the event
that any amount is left over. the in
cinerator and other contemplated i'm
pTovements viii then be provided for.
Council 10 Confirm.
Estimates embodied In the ord
nance are subject TO the nnal con-
frmation % the council. In past years
the appropriation ordinance has been
delayed IN passage by differences Of
opinions among the councilmen as TO
the size OF the various aliotments. but
u Is not thought that this will be the
case this year.
The fund Is somewhat larger than
that OF former years. but the expenses +
OF the city have increased accordingly. .
Il is not likely. however. that any OF .
the vitality needed improvements in .
the city viii be hampered as n result. F.
commissioners say.
Last year the total fund was SSls.-t
o7eS7. which a SsS.221.2s less than .
the estimate for this year The in
crease in funds Is about 20 per cent

 Velvet ribbons may be made to look like new by a steaming process. Stand a very hot f1at-iron on end and fold over 1t several thicknesses of old mus lin wrung out in cold water. There will be tremendous hissing and steam1ng and you must hold the rib bon with its satin back against the steaming cloth, passing the ribbon along as the steam raises the nap of the velvet. Now, remove the wet cloth from the iron, pin one end of the ribbon to the ironing table, and holding the other end as indicated in the picture, pass the iron lightly along the satin-side of the ribbon. Even after being very crushed and crumpled, velvet, or velvet ribbon of good quality, will respond to this steaming treatment in fresh, smooth texture.
 There is no branch of the reno vating art that is as tedious as feather curling, but the work can be done, and beautifully done, at home if one has sufficient patience. Light colored plumes and tips may be cleaned by

Scarf Wraps For Carriage Wear

Scarf Wraps For Carriage Wear.
 Much smaller in size but scarcely less magnificent, is a white ermine and fox scarf wrap, matched by a white fox huff This beautiful set of fnrs is obviously for evening use only and accompanies, here, an opera gown of bead embroidered black tulle. The whole costume carries out the black and white idea, and is of a type more often seen in orchestra or dress circle seats, at the opera, than in the boxes where more pronounced even Ing toilette is demanded. The won- derful white scarf which is several yards long and may be twisted around the figure in a number of graceful ways, is sufficient protection in q closed limousine. even over decol- letage gown; and will be worn into a restaurant after the opera and re- moved at the table instead of being checked in a dressing-room as a wrap would be checked. The opera coif- lure with this black and white cos tune is decidedly smart because of it's eompactness-making the head as

dipping in gasoline. They should be then well shaken and placed in the air to dry. Black feathers may be cleaned in ordinary soap and water and rinsed afterward. Every separate plume of the feather must then be curled with exquisite care and pa tience. A dull knife-a small fruit knife is excellent-should be drawn outward, under the plume. and a little practice will give you the light, deft twist of the wrist that makes the fibre curl gracefully as it leaves the knife's edge. This motion must be kept very regular, so that the feather will be symmetrical when all the flores are curled. If you are caught out in a sprinkle, in your new feath- cred hat, or If the feathers have been exposed to damp mist, hold the hat about two feet above a hot stove, shaking 1t well. The dry heat arising. will restore the lost curl to the plumes.

 Sheer and Substantial Materials To-
 gether.
 Two typical opera gowns are pie tured. Each has the quality of bril- liance and individuality which must be possessed by an opera costume-if it is to make it's mark among so many other impressive toilettes. And each has another feature that marks it dis tinctively of this season; that is the combination of velvet and tulle. Be- cause the textures of these stuffs are so absolutely different, one standing for supreme richness and the other for utmost airiness, the effect is strik- ing when they are put together and in many of this seasons evening gowns one finds them used together, always in stunning effect.
 The velvet portion of the costume is always in the skirt, and perhaps in part of the bodice, though the solid and substantial material rarely rises above the armpits, and sometimes only as high as the waistline. Above, the apparently naked shoulders, neck and arms are yelled only with swath- ings of tulle. But of course there is always an under bodice of some sheer stuff like chiffon or net whose flesh tinted fabric does not reveal itself to the casual eye-at a little distance. The opera gown of velvet and tulle, with pearl and rhinestone trimming on the bodice is illustrative. In this gown the dark velvet reaches only little above the waistline. Above it are several thicknesses of material, though the effect at little distance suggests only gauzy tulle drapery. over the arms and shoulders, supported by shoulder straps of rhinestones. AS a matter of fact there are four layers of fabric; first a sleeveless bodice of flesh pink tulle; then a bodice of sil- yer tissue, with short sleeves; then sort of brassiere- bodice to the bust only, of crystal beaded net, and finally the airy sleeve and shoulder drapery of darker tulle. A chain of diamonds, tiara and necklace of diamonds. and a diamond and sapphire bracelet ac- company this costume.
 In the second gown flower printed velvet Is combined with a scarf of sheer silver tissue. The velvet gown rises to the bust and above this there Is square-necked yoke of chiffon and silver lace. This yelling of the bare arms with long, gauzy scarf is fashion feature of the winter, and feather fan in my lady's hand makes pretty display of jeweled ring and bracelet.
