In Outdoor Suits
Much Attention Paid to Riding
and Golf Clothes.
Costumes Are Particularly Well De-
signed for Sport Wear; Wide
Scarf Arrangement.

A great deal Of attention is being
paid to the knickerbocker golf or hik-
ing suit this season. The peg top
breeches in both riding and golf suits
are less popular than the smoothly
fitting models and in the cuff treat
ment in some instances the fullness,
too, has been eliminated by a series
of small cores that are used rather
than the shirring. Shorter coats, too,
are used, cited as proving that women
are becoming accustomed to this type
of costume.
In addition to the suit with plated
or elastic back coat in the prevailing
type, suits have been noted consisting
of knickerbocke in large two-toned
Over-plaid fleeces to be worn with
slipover jumper in solid tone. This
type of costume is particularly we'll
adapted for winter sports and the
wide scarf arrangement at the throat
is a feature which commends it.
There is a demand for suits with
riding breeches, and skirts to match
are ordered. In this way woman
who rides a great deal may also use
the breeches for hiking and golf.

FELICIA.


~ ELICLA has the augury of happi-
ness, since that is the significance
of her name. She Is the feminine
of Felix, which seems to have been an
agnomen assumed by any individual at
will when he considered himself I'M
usually fortunate. 1t appears first IN
the reign of Herod Agrippa. 1t means
''happy" and has given rise to all man
ner of words and names Signlfylng
good fortune in modern languages.
There are eleven masculine saints
by that name in the Roman calendar
and Felice, the feminine, first appears
in Italy, Spain and the south OF
France. From Felice have come Fee
Iicia in England and Felise in France.
There was a Felicia who was queen of
Navarro in 1867. The old Romans had
a Goddess of Happiness whom they
called Felicitas. The s1ave-martyr OF
Carthage who suffered with st. Per-
petua was so-called, and there was an
other Felicitas under Antonius Plus,
who, with her seven sons, presented a
Christian parallel to the mother in the
Maccabees.
Through the votaries of the young
slave-martyr Felicia became popular
in Italy, and this same character is re-
sponsible for the rise to favor of Fell
cite in France. Faustina is an Italian
form of the same name, but has never
had popular favor Felicia has always
been the favorite form in English
speaking countries, though Felicity

IA novelty ribbon which can be used
effectively on fall hats is that en-

of the Retail Millinery Association of
America, proves effective in the vari-
Gus shades of brown embossed with
either a lighter or darker hue, and a
dull shade Of red marked off with
black. A manufacturer using this
embossed ribbon has made his hats in
variety of shapes, but the off-the-
face model and medium sailor with
flaring brim are the most evident.
Small turbans Of bands of the ribbon
criss-crossed in and out to make

STYLES AND FANCIES

The fitted basque and wide skirt
are frequently made of taffeta.
Sphinx, gunmetal, platinum and
steel gray are very strong
Low heels are gaining in favor, not
only sport, but also dress slippers hav-

Shell and metal ornaments, shaped
like Spanish combs, are used for hat
trimmings.
For the street, lightweight serges,
tricotines and the new weaves of duve-
tyn ere seen.
Velvet brocaded chiffons in shades
of brown or henna tones and cafe du
lait and cocoa colors are smart for
fall gowns.
Crepe shawls, deeply fringed, are
dyed either black or red, and have
become as popular as the gay multi.
colored Spanish shawl.
Gloves of black will lead for fall
wear. Most Of these gloves show a
touch of white in the black stitching
or striking contrast note IN trims
of white.

THE RIGHT THING
AT
THE RIGHT TIME
BY MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
AT THE CHRISTENING


No rule is so general, which admits not
some xception.-Burton.
THERE was time when babies
were dressed deliberately when
they were christened whether
this took place in church or at home.
The christening robe was very long
and wrought with number OF tucks
and ruffles and puffs. Nowadays
these elaborate christening robes have
quite gone out of style among people
who keep abreast Of manners as they
change. In fact the elaborate chris
tening robe looks little taWdry to
us now and we suspect the mother
who dresses her babe in this way OF
being not well posted on prevailing
customs.
If you are planning to take your
baby to be christened have it dressed
in a simple white dress. This may be
of the finest material and may be
made by hand, but it should be devoid
of furbeows. 1T is very nice to have
the baby entirely in white. even to
the robe in which he is held 1t is
usual to uncover the child's head for
the ceremony but especially if the
church is draughty it should wear a
simple white bonnet.
If the child has nurse it may be
brought to the church by the nurse,
but one of the sponsors or the god
mother should hold the baby in her
arms when the ceremony begins and
should receive the baby from the min
lister or priest after the ceremony
has taken place.
The question is sometimes asked
whether or not the minister should be
given fee at the time of the bap-
tism. In some churches there is a
definite fee for this ceremony. Other
wise no fee is really required and
many clergymen rather object to re-
ceiving any for such services. A tact
full thing then to do is to inclose a
crisp bank note in an envelope and
hand it to the clergyman with the re-
quest that he make use of it in some
one of his good works. He certainly
could not object to that. The father
of the child should attend to this after
the ceremony.
