An unusually chic calling [ gown of i . dark green taffeta showed the 1830 mode In Its quaintest Corm ; with puff- Ings wIld Ir.sertlons , long shoulder ef- foct and Cull sleeves , to say nothing of the full skirt and small waist , the ensemble wns all one could deslro. A toque of the green showed tiny wing " . and knots of ribbon velvet of a paler shade for contrast : the green para- sol was a most fitting accompaniment to this particular costume. Any number of dainty matinees and negligees must be considered in the trousseau , from the lounging robe for boudoir use to the peignoir of regal lines becoming the hostess of the . drawing room , so beautiful anti artlr ; . r- . . tic are thcy in desl n.

' - . . . . _ Macrame lace is one of the newest : , = features for linen trimming and i - . , can- Ii" : . vas gowns. Those who remember the I time that thl1 fish cord was used to , 111 I : make "tidies , " table mats and scarfs f are rather amused at the reappearance ' - . of seine twine In heavily crocheted " laces. Macrame is wonderfully smart , j , and even if It Is made of cord with a r crochet hook and looks coarse ! enough , to have consumed very little time In the making , at present it is quite the most fashionable trimming that any woman could choose for certain ' . It would bo so to ' ' gowns. easy era- shot enough for a Gown that It seems IccG' Collarless Jacket of Tan- orttl Cloth-Garnitures for the Neck -Calling Gowns and Negligees-To Clean Jewel . a pity someone Joesn't deslb'11 a few simple patterns that might readily be copied. The prettiest pieces used 110 far have sleep rounded points with raised effects , anti scallops around the entire edge In preference to the fringe that was so fashionable last yoar. ! Fringe , however , properly belongs to' ' the macrame variety , so one may ! choose it with perfect propriety. Very deep collars of this heavy lace will bo worn in the early spring , and as they are adjustable they will answer for lightweight wraps as well. Told in Ii e r' Boudoir' Tucks of all widths are noted on new dresses. Coarse laces trim the canvas fab rics to porfectlon. Elaboration Is the keynote of the season In dressdom. i Nets printed In cloudy Dresden effects are very attractive. Shoulder trimmings droop In pseudo grandmnma style. Daisies and buttercups are reapS ] bearing ns millinery blossoms. _ A panel front makes round and round trimmings possible for the stout woman. The newest skirt tuctngs ] ! turn toward the front and taper to n point at the Imee. Colors will be more of a feature In woman's handkerchiefs than they have been In many soasons. Time red hat Is the correct thing to wear with a black and white striped or checked gown. Thin blouses and shaded taffetas have quite superseded the erstwhile popular foulards. Between time rain umbrella and the parasol comes n half-way article In "sllowe ' size. " To Clean - Jewels. Every little while all brooches , rings and such things that are In constant . stant use should bo brushed \ with a toothbrush that has been dipped incan eau do cologne. If the setting Is open it must bo done from the back , and care must bo taken not to loosen the stones. Then lay the things in a box of jewelers' sawdust , which has been slightly heated beforehand , and leave for an hour , says the Ohio State Jour- nal. God ] chains may be washed In warm soapsuds , drying them on 1\ sort towel by pulling back and forward. They may also bo dried in sawdust and the particles blown 01' dusted ] out aftorward. Bo sure and get them dry , ns they will be apt to become worn between the links If ' . any dampness I'e- mains. Use a feather brush to remove dust from picture frames. Do not use linen cloths , as they wear off the gilt and deaden their hrlghtness. To keep paraffin lamps from smell- ! ing as they sometimes will La even when perfectly clean , put a table- spoonful of Halt Into the all. To clean sponges add a tablespoonful - ful of strong ammonia to a pint of warm water and Into this squeeze the spongo. Let It lie a few minutes , then rinse , it In clear wator. !

Then lay on a table or hoard and with rnthOl' a stilt nail brush brush sideways till nil the creas , es are removed. Leave till thorough ly ] dry. . A Problem In Flounces. Flounces and ruffles are becoming more and more fashionable nil the time , and just how to arrange for them on a gown which should liavo ] long lines Is a llUzzlo to many a dress mnltCl' The skirt should first bo most carefully fitted and made , and then the flounce ! should ho put on in such a wny ( if the wearer or the gown ho tall ) as to mince them encircle the skirt at the stone distance from one anothor. If the wearer be short and stout sand wishes to bo thought tall and slender , then the flounces JUust bo arranged so as to bo higher eIther In front or at the Imclt-wl1lchevol' Is more beconill1g. The flounces may beef of the same material us the gown , edged with lace and trimmed wIth rows of tucks and lace insertions , or they may be made entirol of laco. One of the New Coats.
