THOSE IMPORTANT
LITTLE TOUCHES

ANA WhatS1S new in accessories
those important little touches that
strike the high lights in the autumn
dress picture? Without the interest
OF new accessories fashions sartofial
canvas would be dull indeed!
The first accessory one is likely to.
buy is a new fall s~veiI--that goes with
the new fall hat of course; n as
eyeryNSwoman knows, a correct new
feeIsso pleasantly equipped to meet the
new season. The veil OF the moment
lis of sheer, fine net well covered with
q rather pronounced pattern which
strays with seeming ~irrelevance all
over the surface, but which is really
designed with infinite cunning. Nose,
mouth, chin and cheek may be hid
den from view. ays Fashfon-but not
the eyes; SO all the fall wells have
patterns which somehow or other
manage to leave the eyes free to
sparkle unhidden through the fine,
plain mesh. The ~favorite veil design
is the thistle, wrought with silk thread
on hexagon silk mesh. There are
patterns also with an outlining
design done. with small chenille dots
in the effect of tiny beads. and very
handsome. hand made veilings have
chenille embroidery. Dull gold and
olive drab veilings that are considered
smart, and look so owe the hat; but
one must be careful about their erect
Il on the complexion. There are gray
wells also. and wells in wistaria shade.

The Blouse With a Tall Collar.
Tailored blouses for wear with sep
arate skirts are mostly of crepe de
chine. moon-glo crepe or sheer silk
crepe-the crepe called g%eorgette in
this country. All of these waists In
fitted cuffs and many of them show
the high, choker collar with a turned
down collar over the choker band. A
3 ribbon tie and bow gives a mar fin
ish to such a waist for ribbon is de
y cidedly the thing this season, and the
tailored ribbons Of grosgrain and
MORE weave are much used for chic
little cravats as well as for trimming
tailored hats. More dressy blouses
for matinee and afternoon wear with
silk skirts, or with skirts Of tailored
suits, Or with skirts of tailored suits,
are Of chiffon overlaid with net, or Of
Igeorgette in delicate tints and of
moon-glo silk in the color Of the tall
E'ored suit, with embroidery done by
hand in scroll or Oriental patterns,
with .colored silks.
M Plaid Skirt for Stout Women.
The stout woman used to pass
smart plaid skirts by with a sigh OF
regret, but no longer need she do SO.
Bold plaids and checks in flannels and
wool mixtures are much the thing in
skirtwear this aso and by some
necromancy of art-whichlin ordinary
parlance is called the sveltline meth
od-the boldest plaids are SO man
aged that they look well on stout as
well as lean ~silhouettes. Sveltline is
becoming the stout woman's fetish;
\ she has learned that while she clings
to 1t, her large proportions by some
miraculous leans are turned into

large and striking though colors are

m may wear plaids, IL her clothes
are planned by the sveltline standard
which emphasizes long lines and BAN
ishes curves, and which makes q fetish
of proportion.
Great height, draped effects and q
combination Of materials are q mark
ed feature Of the millinery offerings
for the coming season. The drapedi

are especially in favor.AThe hat illus
trated is a striking instance Of this
type. It is developed In plum colored
velvet with high crown and this is
accumulated by the arrangement Of a.
fence Of wings. The color note,
ranges from plum to brown. These
hats are we'll adapted for the use Of
wells. Incidentally 1t might be well to

sively this fall.
ALL HAIL TO THE KNITTING
NEEDLE!
During the first few months OF the
war there developed at various places
throughout the country clubs, social,
circles and the like, whereat people
who felt that they could spare the
time and money very willingly set out
to knit" socks, wrtstlets and various
other items for the soldiers abroad.
For a time it appeared to be quite a
fad to spend two or three hours q
day knitting for the various foreign
funds. At the present time. however,
there are numerous clubs n societies
where this work of mercy is being
done in all seriousness. American
women are now doing their "bit" for
American men and this puts an. en-
tirely new light on the subject. Almost
continually statements are issued from
the various official sources in which
the general public is given an idea of
the ~stupendous work that is before us.
Many divisions of the Red Cross
those who r interested in helping
the cause, the opportunity to get wool
yarn for the purpose Of knitting socks,
wristlets and sweaters. This privilege,
however, Is for those who cannot sup
ply the yarn themselves, yet nave the
desire to do something in the way of
helping.
Each and every woman should
make it her duty to do some part of
this national work. If one stops to
consider at all the great necessity Of
preparing the necessary comforts for
the men in the service Of the country
the seriousness of the situation will
kbe brought home to all.
Standard patterns and scientific in
%structions concerning the development
of each article are being sent out In
booklet form by the Red Cross, in
which case twill be practical for one
Ito plan her work intelligently.
