BACK TO OLD FASHION

•CAMS ARE AGAIN CONSIDERED IN HEIGHT OF STYLE. Rawnt Change In Opinion Is Most Marked, and Has Much to Recommend It—Some New Ideas in Sleeve Models. The new fashions do not Insist upon the darts which giro the bust prominence and outline a strong curve toward the small waipt, because there Is too much orientalism in clothes yet to allow of a small waist, but the shoulders are fitted and the chest Is smoothly covered. The shoulders are often made more narrow In appearance by a drooping line or a cap to which the sleeve Is gathered; but nothing must take away from the attenuated back that Is made to look smaller by reason of several seams running from shoulder to waist or hips, If the garment Is a coat. There is no longer any prejudice against seams. What would have been considered too old-fashioned for anything except the family album Is now very good style. Another accepted fashion of recent years that must be avoided is' the three-quarter sleeve. No matter for what hour the garment is intended during the day, the sleeve must be long. There’s no uncertainty there. It may be full or tight, leg-o’-mutton or prelate, cuffed with muffs of fur, or finished with a silk cord;, its style depends upon the type of blouse, and Its length depends upon the present law. 1 There is no tendency to allow the least evidence of fullness at the wrist; whatever the width at the elbow —and it is usually considerable —

Happily this is so, for it is one of the best lines a woman can adopt if she wants her hand to look well. The sleeve that is gathered to a small cap at the shoulder, bulges out

MOST USEFUL IN BATHROOM

Receptacle for Towel, Sponge, or Soap That May Easily Be in Every Household. A receptacle for the towel, sponge or soap is seldom if ever provided in a bathroom where it can be reached from the bath, with the result that these articles are generally balanced along the edge of the bath, and sometimes they fall into it and at other times they fall on to the floor. Here we give a sketch of a useful article for hanging upon the wall by the side of the bath that the amateur carpenter can “knock together” in a few moments, and in which towel, soap and sponge may be placed and be within

easy reach of the bather without any fear of these articles slipping into the water. It is composed of two pieces of wellplaned board, one-half inch in thickness and 18 inches in length. The back board is 10 inches in width and the front 8 inches in width. These two boards are Joined together with triangular pieces of wood fastened on at either end with thin sharp nails. At the upper edge, at the back at the holder, two large picture rings are eomd in fay which it may be sue

WAR BRIDE HAT OF MOURNING

In Europe, where half the women are In mourning, this hat, which Courneur of Paris, its designer, has appropriately called the “War Bride’s Hat,” is meeting quite a vogue among the young widows, who appreciate its smartness and chicness. It is made of black crepe, with a touch of white veil, and is draped, permitting it to hang loose down the back.

over the elbow and is held in below is the one that the majority of French designers have sent over. It has taken the place of the bellshaped sleeve which was featured last winter in coats and frocks. That style is out, unless it is occasionally used on a luxurious long topcoat of velvet or fur. The eighteenth century sleeve, which is made of white batiste or organdie and ends with a frill over the hand, held in place by a tight bracelet of black velvet ribbon, is returned to fashion; it is used on that new kind of winter house frocks which Mme. Joire of the house of Paqiiin accentuates, made of taffeta and organdie, of velvet and organdie. These sleeves are placed in a jumper blouse of blue or black taffeta, and there is a wide band of the same summerlike material on the skirt or edging the ends of the sash.

Purple Is Autumn’s Favorite.

In the realm of fashion, where many delightful rumors come true, it is said that purple will be a favored color for late summer and autumn. Soft shades and wistaria, as well as the very deep shades of reddish purple, all bid for recognition. Dark colors have already gained such prominence one sees little of the bright colors. The tango and other brilliant, harsh colors which have been so popular have entirely passed, and black and navy blue are most favored by fashion leaders for suits, dresses and coats. In line with the craze for things black and white are the new handbags of silk, which have striped lining to match, or in direct contrast, are gayly lined with flowered satins or silk. The handles are of the black and white silk or of black moire, as when the bag is all black, ornamented with the gilt clasps.

Checkerboard Furs.

Let a fad get started, and it is surprising to see to what extreme lengths it will run. The fad for fur on summer costumes is Parisian, and established. ' Fancy a checkerboard collar and cuffs of black and white fox fur on a coat sponsored by Balcom! On thej coat or wrap necessary for the dozen and one uses of slimmer, what could be more chic?

pended from nails in the wall, and when completed it should be painted with white enamel.

Odds and Ends.

All millinery shows the influence of the love of subdued tints. The high-crowned hat that seemed to give the needed dignity of appearance demanded by many women as a sign of the times is seen in pastel shades of velvet that are infinitely beautiful. Plum and raisin tones in soft tints in velvet and satin give the note of subdued brightness that is not out of keeping with dress worn for practical needs, and no charge of undue extravagance can be brought against any woman who may naturally prefer to wear a tint more advantageous to her appearance than a more sober shade.

Practical Ribbons.

Many of the hats that are designed to wear with street suits are ribbon trimmed. Ribbon, always durable, is also especially suitable to the sailor shape that is winning out as the most desirable of the simple walking hats. Satin sailor hats and those of white felt and pongee are all popular. White kid is used, too, by some of the exclusive milliners, usually touched with a vivid touch of red, blue or green.

Separate Skirts for Fall Wear.

Separate skirts, which for many years have been associated with the summer season, are offered in very attractive models for autumn wear. The new skirts are made on circular lines, and many of them have graceful redingote tunics, becoming alike to the stout or slim figure.

Enterprising White.

A writer gives a little sketch of black and white in Natal. He tells how he came across a white boy, some fourteen years old, and a group of raw natives playing a game. They were shooting with an old muzzle-loading shotgun at a bottle on the top of a case. When the youngster smashed a bottle he received a “tickey" (a threepenny bit) from the natives. When a native hit it he received threepence from the boy. “That peems a funny sort of game,” remarked the witness to the boy. “Oh, the game’s all right, sir,” replied the lad. “You see, I load the gun.”

Too Much for Them.

It was a minstrel performance, and in the intervals between the songs the usual jokes were being perpetrated. “What am de difference between an ol d maid and a married woman?" asked Sambo. “Why,” explained Sambo, “de old maid am lookin’ for a husband ebery day, an* de married woman am lookin’ for 'im ebery night!” There was a pause, and several elderly gentlemen got up and stole softly into the night.

Judge Parry, in a recent article on “Rufus Choate, Advocate,” says on occasion Choate would meet with his Sam Weller. Defending a prisoner - theft of money frbm a ship, a witness was called who had turned state’s evidence and whose testimony went to prove that Choate’s client 'had insti-' gated the theft. “Well,” asked Choate, "what did he say? Tell us how and what he spoke to you.” “Why,” said the witness, "he told us there was a man in Boston named Choate and he’d get us off if they caught us with the money in our boots.” •
