very effective. In the case of silk or

DAINTY FINisHINGS.

Inc woman who sews well often does
not undertake to make her own clothes
simply because she knows that It is i'm
possible for her to give them the prop
er finish. But if once she can master a
rev details of finishing, even the wom-
an VINO does not sew well will dare to
undertake a new frock or blouse of
pretentious fashion,
AT the trimming and pleating shops,
unoer whatever name they go, it is
poSslple to get various sorts of dainty
nnlshes made. Machine hemstitching
1of curs and collars and hens, picot
eoges' pieating of all sorts, shirring
ana cording, all these are done for rea-
sohabie sums, and often a bit Of such
nnlSh1ng goes long way toward CIV
ing the right air to a homemade frock
But the woman of ingenuity can do
many things herself to give her frocks
the right style. For one thing, she can
substitute a dainty finish for a picot
edge. This Is used along the edge Of
LOUNGES and frills with good effect
Simply roll the edge in tiny roll, and
WHIP II over and over, evenly but not
specially close together, with strong
shade.
A net lining for the bodice Of a silk
lrock Is easy to make. Again it is the
nnlshlng that counts. The neck part
should be cut a little lower than the
neck OF the silk. and edged with a very
narrow bit of valenciennes lace The
front should be closed with ball and
socket snappers and the armholes
should be edged with the lace.
When there is a transparent bodice
or vest, little underbodice or part of
one should be fastened under it. For a
transparent vest the underbodice need
pc no more than a piece of chiffon or
net that reaches from the waist to the
cnest, gathered or shirred to the belt
OF the bodice, and daintily shirred at
the top. edged perhaps with narrow
lace and fastened together either with
ribbons or snappers.
IF the sleeves of the frock or bodice
IN question are of net or chiffon. a lin
ing sleeve is often effective, made of
chiffon for net sleeves, of net for chif-
ron ones 1t should follow the cut of
the outer sleeves, being a very little
ughter. To make it especially dainty
cut 1t in two between wrist and elbow
and run In by hand a strip of very mar,
row ana dainty lace heading. This
takes a little time, but gives a really
charming effect through the transnar.
ent outer sleeve.

Picked Pears.

To every six pounds of pears allow
one pint of wine vinegar. three pounds
sugar and teaspoonful each of CHINA =
mon, cloves and ginger ftied up in mus
lin bags. Let the sugar, vinegar and
spices boil up and place in the sirup
formed the peeled pears d few at a
time. Cook until tender: place the
pears in q crock. pour over them the
vinegar, etc, and let them stand for
three days. Pour off the strip at the
end of this time, boil it down, then
pour it once more over the pears, which
should have been placed in jars, re-
move the spices, and fasten down If
a more tart pickle Is preferred, part or
all of the sugar may be omitted.

Jewelry Fancies.

Brooches are again very fashionable.
Stones in rings are cut in designs run
ming across the finger Necklaces are
narrow and tight with jeweled orna-
ments under the chin. Bracelets in
narrow styles are set with diamonds
and semi precious stones. For evening
wear elbow styles are favored.
Watches are worn in bracelets, and Will
also hang pendent from the neck, the
main ornament i'll the chain being next
to the watch. Hat pins are in small de-
signs. Gold belt buckles mounted on
leather or the material like the dress
are smart. Sleeve links are made of
loose links and short connections.

Tafeta Trimming.

White taffeta trims some of the most
successful sheer white frocks, and this
silk is often used very literally in
such combinations, without detracting
from the simplicity of the frock. Lit
tie pinked frills of white taffeta are
used in profusion on one model of
finest white wolfe. Another sheer
frock of net is trimmed in graduated
bands of taffeta from hem to hip and
has an odd sleeveless little over
basque of taffeta with a full narrow
peplum below the cord that marks the
waist line.

Trained Velvet Gowns.

So far none of these has appeared
In the afternoon models, although there
are some who believe that they will
come into fashion before spring. But
several of the Paris designers have
sent over evening gowns with actual
trains. Callot is one Of these, although,
Judging from the sketch. one would
have to be quite girlish to carry off
the kind she invents: the gown to
which she attaches 1t is pronouncedly
youthful and demands a slim figure.
Paquin does better in making train
to a black velvet gown which cascades
down the sides, showing a lining Of
colored silk.
One cannot say that the era of dress
ushered in this autumn is entirely dig
nified. because it has evidently been
drawn from the pre-revolutionary perl
cd when Vatican effects were sought
and pastel colors, metal laces, flowers
and white hair ruled; when capricious-,
ness was adored in costumes as In
manners. These clothes were frivolous
and were Indignantly criticised as such
by the people who had to work In
order that they might be worn by the
idle: vet grated on these fashions are
worked out by a woman who wishes
to cut dignif1ed figure in the world
of social life.
The Incoming Of Jet.
Jet rightly used is trimming that
sets off the matron1y figure, although
its revival leads one to shudder at the
thought of how many overly stout
women will adopt it, despite the fact
that II makes them look twice as large
as they are. The new clothes show
varied touches OF It, Much or VI 10
hIacL aJthouph there is a strong re-
turn to barbaric usage Of It in bril-
liant colors.
