This is an essentially simple, prac.
teal gown to be worn in the home or
for any morning occasion. Here, it is
made of the serge that is such pro-
nounced favorite but it is relieved ofthe
commonplace by the cape collar and the
cuffs which are of ivory washable silk.
The gown itself is made with blouse
and skirt joined by belt. AS it is
treated here, it is adapted to everyday
needs of the home. If it we're made
with straight standing collar in place
of the fancy one, it could be converted
to the nurses use and the pattern also
includes a cap that will be liked by the
nurse. The collar is quite separate
and is adjusted over the gown. A
simpler effect could be obtained by
using blue linen or blue chambray or
blue poplin, and the washable gown is
often a desirable one for home wear.
The pattern for the collar includes an
interesting variety and will be found
available for many needs. The deep
cuffs are especially valuable for length
ening short sleeves and the cape collar,
if it is made of a suitable material will
completely transform any blouse. For
the afternoon gown, it would be pretty
to make it of organdie and to EN-.
broider some little design, in place OF
using he1nstitching. 4
For the medium size will be needed,
~ yards of material Fl inches wide,
~ yards SO or 5 yards ~, for the gown
with y yard SO inches wide for the
collar and the cuffs.
The pattern of the gown No. 8o5S is
cut in sizes from "a to a inches bust
measure and the pattern of the collars
and cuffs No. 8S41 is cut in one size.
They will be mailed to any address by
the Fashion Department of this paper,
on receipt Of fifteen cents for each.

Mesmerism and Hypnotism.

You may say that "mesmerism Is
a form of hypnotism," or you may,
with equal propriety, say that "hypno~
tism is form Of mesmerism." It is
as broad as it is long. Mesmerism is
so-called from the fact that it first
sprang into prominence through one
f. A. Mesmer, German physician of
Merseburg, about 176O. The name
mesmerism has in these days beeD
eclipsed by the more familiar hypno-
tism.

are used only for protection. The ia

its legitimate place in shoe fashions.
