TIE plainest of boudoir caps, such as that one pictured Lere, will serve to introduce a coterie of others far more elaborately made. The sub iect of boudoir caps is inexhaustible; they are as varied, almost, as the faces they so prettily set off Dain- tiness is the most lasting of fem mine charms, and the boudoir cap is an expression of this.
 Displayed in New York shop are a half dozen or so styles. that run the scale from the simplest to the most elaborate The first one con- sists of a puff of plain crepe de chine for the crown, which is gathered over a circle Of wire that fits the head Lace, about three inches wide plaited in narrow side plaitngs, is sewed in side the edge of the cap about the front, extending from one temple to the other. second length of the plaited lace is sewed in, extending from ear to ear. The lace is then turned back off the face and tackled to the crown, forming a coronet of lace about the face.
 Where this plating leaves off, a third length is sewed in the cap and is left hanging over it's neck. A TO sette of narrow ribbon is sewed to each side.
 The next cap is made Of all-over shadow lace with the puffed crown snirred over circle of wire A fril of very narrow lace extends about the front of the cap Across the back there is d scant frill Of wider lace
