robe I have in mind is a silver
sheen corduroy of an exquisite
rose color. Decorative. cozy and
appealing. All the requisites for
a boudoir robe. The sleeves are
large and end in huge tassels.
and the tuxedo collar fastens
at the left side with a sash and
Is held in place with an orna-
ment, which ends in tassels. Rose
- only one Of the many shades
In which these robes may be
found. Old blue. gray. purple
are a few Of them. Twenty-Five
dollars reads the price tag hidden
under the folds of the garment.
A sister In utility to these robes
10 a pullman robe. This year
has designed the best ever. Satin,
in dark 'colors, with hoods, and
shirred about the hem In a smart
way. For the school girl. the
woman who travels much and, in
deed, for every woman. Twenty
dollars will give this attractive
gift.

THE newest pillows are far ad-
vanced from the sofa pillows
os few years ago. Made to fit
In odd places, they assume tri.
angular shapes. A typical one
Is fashioned from black satin
and has a bouquet Of appliqued
flowers and leaves to match the
predominate note in the boudoir.
EOR men for Christmas
smoking set is o. K.-indeed,
yes. When 1t arrives In a
special case. just designed to
hold cigarette case, of pin seal,
with gold corners; a match box
to match and a holder of bakel-
lite. The case is made to hold
an entire pack Of cigarettes. This
gift, guaranteed to please any
man, costs $3.50. A larger set,
In that 1t includes a bill-fold Of
the same leather, with gold cor
ners, sells for SIS. Such a gift
has a lasting value. And for
use. what does mere man use
more often than cigarette
case. a match box, and a bill
fold?
THE newest pajamas are FASH
ioned from gay chiffon. A
charming set is made from red
chiffon, ostrich trimmed, and the
sleeves reach to the bottom of
the ostrich-trimmed trousers.
THE in-between boy is often a
puzzle when 1t comes to Sc.
lecting a gift to please. Perhaps
q pocketscope will be an idea.
Yesterday. I saw a very good so.
called pocketscope on sale for 81.
1t is really a clever little mag
nifying glass that magnifies four
times the natural size. II the boy
Is interested in the great out-of-
doors, or for reading, when the
print is fine, or just to carry in
his pocket, this gift is the thing.
For the small boys pocket is a
recess for many such interesting
and useful things. Just the gift
to slip into the toe of small
brothers stocking.
TAFFETA bids fair to be the
frock medium for spring.
Many Of the advance models are
fashioned from that always popu.
lar material.
A TRULY feminine gift comes
In the most attractive box.
In fact. the box 10 like Pandora's 8
box. 50 lovely that one hesitates
to lift the lid. But when the
flowered box is opened 1t reveals
. beautiful spray OF artificial
flowers. Flowers that make a
corsage and then trail their deli
cate blossoms down the side Of
the frock. Orchids with silver
ribbons. dainty French flowers
made from silk and silver gauze.
Velvet pansies, interesting in both
color and design. More durable
than a box of American beauties
and at only a third the cost. Who
said $S was extravagant for a
bouquet Of flowers in a festive
box?
COUTACHE braid and embroid-
cries IN braid effects are con-
spicuous favorites for trimmings
for the new navy twill suits.
EGYPTIAN influence in fabric
and coloring Is discovered in
formal dress. especially in the
