GIRDLES AND APRON PANELS. Wide boned girdles are newer than the twice round sash that that has been so overgrown, and these often finish or top a single width of silk or velvet, ending in a fringe and em- bellished with embroidery if the material is Plajn, or perhaps finished with the band of fur that seems never to be amiss in any style of new get-up. These apron panels are worn at the centre front usually, and are not often more than twelve inches in length, though sometimes one sees a velyet apron that suggests the familiar masonic garment top- ping a skirt of draped broadcloth or satin. BISHOP SLEEVES AND FICHUS. Bishop sleeves of net or lace, and fichus from which spring wired Med- ici rushes or collars, are modish and offer an excellent means to freshen a worn waist or to change the effect of a dress. The old sleeve can be cut away half way from shoulder to elbow and the full net set on to pouch a little over the elbow, and be gathered in tight at the wrist where it finishes with a velvet bracelet, or with frills that fall gracefully over the hands. Bows of black net or tulle drawn through loops of rhinestones make pretty neck finishes, or ‘‘in sets”’ are used as trimmings on the thin blouses which will this year be ex- tensively worn on all occasions. Very warm outer wraps of fur or fur trimmed, offer adequate pro- The above designs & are by The McCall Company, New York, Designers and Makers of McCall Patterns. New York, Octooer 10th. The fashionable endorsement of contrasting coats and skirts is re- sponsible for some of the most novel effects seen this Autumn and for the new ‘‘four-piece’’ suits that are prac- tically two distinct get-ups. These consist of two skirts, one plaid, one plain and a blouse that goes with either. The coat matches the plain skirt and harmonizes with the plaid one. Blue coats rather lead in the jacket types and these are consider. ed exceptionally smart worn over black skirts, though many people pre- fer a black coat for general wear. Suits consisting of a draped broad- cloth skirt with a rather long cut- a-way coat of caracul cloth are very new and stylish and the coat can |be worn with any skirt or gown 'in the wardrobe as its glossy black surface, closely resembling the fur it copies, goes admirably with any type of dress. A eoat of this material cut on kimona wrap lines with rounding cut-away fronts, with fur collar and cuffs and contrasting silk lining is an excellent investment for the woman who desires, while presenting a mod- ish appearance, to get the utmost use from her new coat. VOGUE OF PLUSH. All plushes are to the fore for coats and wraps, not only those that close- ly resemble seal, caracul, or other pelts, but those developed in mohair that are frankly a new form of cloth, very warm and dressy in appearance yet calculated to successfully with- stand the hardest wear. Almost all of these have touches of real fur in their accessories, though most often the fur has been dyed and manipu- lated to masquerade as coming from a different animal than the one who originally wore it. Oppossum pelts are dyed to look like skunk, and mole skins to resemble anything rath- er the original grey coated little bor- ers. Tee latest French idea is to dye these in vivid reds or grey coat- ed little borers. The latest French idea is to dye these in vivid reds, or grass green to trim some garment that needs a touch of these pupu- lar colors, or to form: entire wraps of such fashionable hues. BEAD TRIMMINGS. Jets and all sorts of colored bead trimmings and embroideries are the tip of the mode for trimmings and elaborate garments. Necklaces of barbaric beads, caught with huge plaques of similar construction are a notable feature of the dresses sent over from the famous houses of Worth in Paris and London. A neck- tie of beaded gimp is seen on many of the new waists and blouses de- signed for wear with street suits, and the out outlining of the edges of draperies by beaded gimp re- mains a popular feature of fussy frocks and evening gowns. Anyone having pretty leftovers in jet can renew them hy sponging with alco- hol and water, while odd necklaces can be worked in as up-to-date trim- mings for hats and gowns. THE INDIAN NOTE. Trimmings and cuts that the sug- gest the garments worn by Ameri- | can Indians are a notable feature | of Fall designs. Shirt waists that |are derived from ‘‘scout’” models | are shown in washable silk crepe, | and other washable silks, as well as | in extra blouses of velvet faced | woolens. that are so popularly worn tection outdoors, while the extreme- (ly warm temperatures that prevail indoors everywhere raake a thin waist both comfortable and suitable FANCY BRASSIERS. With tue prevailing transparancy or semi -ansparancy of the blouse, the ela ...te details of the new brassiers cre not lost to sight. These are a 1u.-- of lace, embroideries and ribbon u.:uiwuings that add to the ap- pearance ui any of the plain net or shadow iuce blouses that are so much seen, ev. nu with plain tailored get-ups, though (nc plainest of these would have scewcd a bit dressy a few seasons 4go.

When making salmon salad add a hard-boilea egg or two, caretully diced. : Never stir a sponge cake batter. If this is doue, the air is allowed to es- cape. : To overcome the habit of biting the finger nails, soak them in liquid quinine. Underwear should be ironed on the right side; colored clothes on the wrong side. To keep a veil crisp, dip it several times in alcohol and hang it up in- doors to dry. Green peppers, stuffed with fresh green coru and baked, make a dainty luncheowu uish. Apples and onions shredded togeth- er make a sandwich filling that many people lise. Coldsluw, served in green pepper shells, 1s a suggestion for a dainty luncheon addition. A fine grater is better than a knife or removing the surface of anything that is burned. It is much easier to climb stairs if the head is held erect and deep, reg- ular breaths are taken. To quickly prepare horseradish or cocoanut, pare it and put it through the chopping machine. In sleepinig keep the head as low as possible, so that the blood may have unimpeded circulation. If the cuticle around the nails seems dry and stiff and there is a ten- dency to hangnails, rub in well a lit- tle vaseline or cold cream every night before going to bed. Save ome or two turkey wings. They are the best brushes in the world to use around a stove and splendid for sweeping closet shelves. Weight the wing tip with iron until it dries. When giving sticky medicines to children, heat the spoon by dipping it for a moment in hot water, then pour in the medicine and it will slip easily from the spoon. Put pockets on the underside of aprons near the right-hand edge and they will be found just as covenient for use, yet will not catch on door- knobs and get torn. If eggshells are to be used for clear- ing coffee the eggs should be well washed before they are broken and the shells should be kept in a covered receptacle until needed.
