FISCHUS IN ALL MATERIALS

Dainty Bhou!der Fixings May Be Made at Home With Comparatively Small Outlay. Shoulder fixings which offer the utmost possibilities for home making and much elegance at small cost are the fischus, which • are now being made in every material from dotted muslin to satin and velvet One of these lovely shoulder deckings was shaped exactly like the flsohu mantelet of our granmammas. It was of a thin chiffon Bilk in a pale violet with embroideries of pale blue. One slip was of violet gauze trimmed with blue, and the other was a little blue batiste affair simply tucked. Tall slim figures, or short ones, are equally glorified by these dainty fischus, which to have the real old fashioned stamp, and, consequently, the new one, must fall in long rounded ends at the front Shoulders, however, must not be too square, or these little mantelets and draperies lose their :harm. The model of the bigger Bschu, the one that covers all the shoulders and falls like a cape at the back, with ends in some degree »f length, offers a very good notion for the first fall evening wrap for a iressy frock. The fixing in this form Is especially adapted to the needs of the young matron, but as indicated, this very feminine prettiness is most charming with sloping shoulders.
