The decorative scheme 1s simple, being con- fined to narrow stitchings of soutache braid and a collar of plain satin. The vest may be of silk, organdy or lace, The back of the waist extends over the shoulders forming a yoke effect at the front. As are all fashionable col- ors, this one 1s in two styles so that it may be worn high or low. The skirt 1s a five-gore model with high walst-line and the back gore made to form a bex pleat, In cutilng the material the hack gore is 'lald along the fold ef broadcloth, with the collar and back closely fol- lowing. The front comes next, but is lald on a lengthwise thread; .then comes the belt, lald crosswise of the material, on the fold. To the right of the belt is the shield, unless it 18 made of contrasting material, with the collar coming last and placed on the length- wise fold.

WINTER STYLES, i. ef a Quiet In Color, But Superior In Quality. Among the most important details of the modish costume are. gloves and foot-gear often carelessly chos. en, and therefore the reason for a fauity toilette. Although less con- Fspicuous as to color, the hoots and dress shoeg for, wear this season are noticeably chic in cut and with the materials used for their making with the continued popularity of adopting shoes in black buckskin has been realized. Excellent models in laced or buttoned, styles have been in con- siderable demand, as have calfskin pumps which are considered quite correct for street wear, provided they are topped with a smartly fitted gray or dull colored spat. All' models for tailored and morning wear ex- ploit the Cubar -heel, while dressier shoes for afternoon wear feature the Spanish Louis design. Evening shoes are decidedly French-strapped 'slip- per types with high heels and dainty beaded toes winning approval. Gloves this season 'are not in the least "faddy," dull gray mocha being among the newest for tailored wear. For all forma) wear white glace is corxect, and to complete the sporting costumes fabric gloves in white and gray, and washable capeskin who smart black stitching are shown. FURS AS CHRISTMAS GIFTS.

Checked woollens are used a good deal with plain velvets. The most becoming of all the new hats is the sailor shapes, d Little folks are wearing clothes fashioned on Russian lines. Save for actual sporting purposes, the cireular belt is gradually disap- pearing. 2 Fur trimming can be used, hut with diserétion, if one would be very distinguished. It is pretty well a foregone conclu- sion that the striped blouse will van- ish with the summer. There is another attempt to pull in the waist, and there is some talk of introducing the bustle. One of the féw military influences in feminine attire that seems likely to be accorded any sound recognition is the tartan skirt. y If you wash matting occasionally with salt water, it will prevent it from becoming dark colored. | If a warm iron is passed: over stamps that stiek together they will come apart. 5 ad ~--notably.
