    The Caracul 'Jacket.
The short caracul jacket Is certainly
one of the mit fascinating of fash
ton's fads this seuson. To be worn
with a Bkating costume such as has al
ready been described It Is most ela
borate costume, of while cloth, for In
stance, the jacket Is of white caracul,
It Is hard to Imagine anything more
fascinating. The acme of the fad Is
reached in these coats dyed to match
the gown pale blue, muuve, etc. Very
smart they are. too, and yet the white
or black somehow seem to be more
popular.
Dyed gray squirrel Is another fad
in the short fur jackets, and also In
the stoles and muffs. Brown is the
color to choose, and the fur can only be
recognized as squirrel by close obser
vation, for it seems like a much richer
and more expensive skin, and compares
most favorably with mink In coloring

How Fashions are Made.
Pull bottomed wigs were invented
by a French barber to conceal a de
formity In the shonlders of the then
Dauphin. The Court, of course, Imi
tated the Dauphin'B wig, and so it be
came fashionable.
Similarly, Charles VII. of France
Introduced long coats to hide ill made
legs.
Patches were invented, they tell us,
In England, by a foreign lady, who
In this, manner Ingeniously covered a
wen on her neck.
In 1460 Duke Philip of Burgundy,
having had hts hair cut during an Ill
ness, issued an edict that all the no
bles of his States should bo shorn also
with the result that over five hundred
persons sacrificed their hair, says
Home Chat.
In the time of Henry I. It was cus
tomary to allow the hair and beard
to grow until the king had his cut
officially, when the royal example
was at once followed.
Women of th Great West.
We mentioned to some friends that
we had aimed to acquire a little dls
dom in the simple life, by studying
these new countries; but they went
into spasms of impolite 1 laughter at
the suggestion. It seems that the
women hold on to all the frills they
used to know, and acquire all the new
ones they can hear of, as a means of
proving their social status, and of
transforming their present place of
residence Into the nearest possible
semblance of the one they left behind.
When they move into town oft the
ranches, and discard sunbonnets and
Mother Hubbards, they wear chiffon
hats with brims a few inches wider
than Eastern modes. After a, few
years of town and club life they be
come oh, wearisomely like every oue
else! One of them, herself a woman
of brains and energy said that no one
lived the simple life here, because
one had the strength of mind to fol
low the recipe.
"And that is?" we asked.
"Just to be yourself," she answered.
And we thought she was quite right

Bazar.
An American Girt at Court.
The necessary wardrobe Is no small
matter. A simple court dress by
Paquin will cost anything from $500
to $750 not Including lace which may
be a family heirloom above price.
The debutante's bouquet may include
$100 worth of costly orchids and hot
house blooms. As to gloves, the regu
lation twenty-four button court gloves
will cost $5 to $10 a pair at least, in
a Bond street store; and for shoes,
the correct ones are to be bought at
a little store high up Bond street near
the Oxford Street end. These people
make shoes for the Queen and Prin
cesses, and the price is $25 a pair.
It Is embarrassing to find that almost
every detail U of ; one's- attire is . laid
down by law and has endured for cen
turies. Some points about the presentation
at court are much changed since
Queen Victoria's day. The "courts,"
as they are now called, are held at 10
o'clock at night an hour much more
becoming to one's costume and com
plexion than the erstwhile afternoon
session. Also, there are beautiful
bands in attendance; a most excellent
buffet supper; and last, but by no
means least, the King and Queen sit
on gorgeous thrones at the end of a
huge and sumptous saloon, In all the
glory of ermine and purple and Jewels
beyond price. Harper's Bazar.
Correct Breathing .
Hardly one person in thirty knows
how to breathe properly, yet correct
breathing is undoubtedly the secret of
a healthful life and incorrect breath
ing the real source of much ill health.
rvwrnrr breathing Is. first, breathing
through the nose Instead of through
the mouth. Nature Intended that we
should breath through the noetrlls
and so made them with their Inside
wMnr of fine hair that every parti'
cle of dust was sifted from the atmos-
phere before it reached the lungs and
at the same time heated. It it is im
possible to breathe through the nose a
physician should be consulted and the
obstruction removed. Every attention
to this condition does much toward
preventing throat, ear and lung trou
bles in later life. Catarrh is Invaria
bly caused by the failure to breath
through the nose.
The second essential to correct
breathing is by deep inhalations and
exhalations. Deep breathing should
be practised as far as possible in order
that the full capacity of the lungs may
be properly developed. The breathing
should be done slowly and at first
practiced when one gets up in the
morning and when she retires at night.
Soon the habit Is formed and deep
breathing becomes natural and fre
quently great Improvement in the gen
eral health is the result.
The next point to observe Is the
number of respirations or breathings
occurring in one minute. There should
be one to every four beats of the pulse.
The average pulse of a woman, under
normal conditions, is about seventy;
the number of respirations should
therefore be about eighteen. Of course
the number Increases after exercise.
Lest China; More Silver.
The tendency Increases to use less
china on 'the table and to substitute
silver and glass when possible. , If
cutglass is used the economy of this
fashion is not apparent, for cutglass is
exceedingly liable to accident, and Its
first costs exceeds that of good china.
If it does not receive the best of treat
ment it Incomes dull and not worth
its cost. But there are such excellent
patterns In pressed glass that one may
make an exception to her rule not to
tolerate Imitations and buy the cheap
er glass for use even in the company
of good china and silver.
Undoubtedly there Is an economy In
using more silver, says the Lowell
Daily Mall.
When great grandmother washed
her own china In a cedar tub, the egg
shell dishes outlasted the owner. Now
the careful dishwasher is a rare crea
ture even If she exists at all. What
china Is not broken by crowding in
the dishpan is finished by knocking
against the faucets over the sink. Sil
ver may be dented and the plate worn
off, but the silversmith will hammer
out the dent and cover the worn places
and the article is as good as new.
Some careful housewives whom I
know are using silver vegetable and
pudding dishes and small platters, for
boiling water will not crack them,
they bear dry heat well and are Imper
vious to all common accidents. Sel
ect such silver with plain or fluted sur
face and with beading on the edge it
will be an easy matter to keep it
bright. Speaking from experience a
silver dish set on a little four-inch
electric stove connected , with the
chandelier above the table and turned
Its lowest power has kept food to be
served hot in better temperature than
any china dish could possibly have
done. Then again these silver serving
dishes add brilliancy to the table and
make a simple meat satisfy the eye as
well as the palate. ,1V) not buy these
dishes too large and possibly it may
be difficult to find just the right S,izes.
Every housekeeper learns sooner or
later to keep looking in the shops un
til she finds what she needs and not
to be won over by many words into
taking what will remind her dally
that It was not just what she wanted.
Fashion Hints.
Large black velvet hats have the
crowns embroidered in floral designs
in nature's colors.
Velvet is not elastic and care must
be taken to allow more for seams than
in any'other material. !
Brussels net with a coin spot ot
medium size is quite the vogue for
evening and dinner frocks.
With the one exception of being
made of the material of the dress, the
new evening slippers are of kid, suede
or satin.
Beautiful . types of Watteau and
Gainsborough shapes, rife with bril
liant color and laden with quivering
plumes, are the predominating styles.
Satin hats are in every possible
shape. Hydrangea blue, forget-me
not blue, rose pink, amethyst shades
and emerald green are noteworthy
colors.
Every bit as modish as ever are the
spats, or over-galters, as many prefer
to call them. Even this early they
are being worn over boots, which
would seem to be rather a warm way
to dress. We have had a few cold
days, however, and, alas! we will have
many more.
There are Indications that for cos
tumes and coats the elbow sleeve will
be retired for the cold weather months
at least, and the full length sleeve,
slightly full at the top, will take Its
place. There will be many modifica
tions, though the plain type will be
much 1j evidence, especially on the
plain tailored suits.

Rome Dressmaking.
There Is no way In which n woman

her own clothes, but to do it to the

knowledge nnd experience. Working
with a home dressmaker Is a good

, To Bring Birds Back.
Merman farmers are trying .to In
duce the smaller birds to return to
their old haunts about the Ileitis, and
for this purpose are setting out box
es and other artificial devices to serve
the birds for homes. The farmers
need the birds to destroy the Insects,
but the birds are disappearing not
only because of their direct slaughter,
but also, because, the old trees in the
decayed hollows of which they built
their nests, the old copses which they
haunted, and both of which were pro
lific in insects, together with the
stagnant pools which yielded them
food in abundance, are all disappear
ing before the closer cultivation ot the
present time. . : . -
