Mat litre l.lrl mid the First MaMer In FmhloimMe Hraalta. NEW YORK, Jan. 9 More and more labor lite grow the winter's cloaks, , thos for ttanater wear especially retorting to err device for effectiveness. Btole hands of velvet appllqued with em broidered edges i are peen on long cloth coals, the velvet shaping at the shoulders a collar of some sort and often running down on the sleeves In odd ways. With the ornamentation, In Itself ex tremely decorative, emtiroldercfl applica tions In separate flower sprays may be used. They are of the cut -out cloth, the needlework dono In silk of the same color and the ornaments placed wherever they how to greatest advantage. One elegant matinee coat of pale bisque cloth dlHplayed a spray on the puff of each aleeve, and another at the ends of the atole bands at the front of the coat. Vel vet In a deeper shade shaped the stole and at other points heavy machine stitching formed a smart decoration. The most swagger of the theater coats are In the palest colors or white, though these last are usually reserved for even ing use. However, a white coat Is not an Uncommon sight at the matinee and nolh- ' GOOD BARQAIN Ing could be smarter (or a box party, which aeml-soclal occasion calls for something mora elaborate than common In dress. With It a black velvet skirt . combine beautifully and the white lace or felt hat. which tops the costume may show wreatha of velvet flowers In natural tints. The flowers now blooming In millinery gardens are Invariably of velvet and though all the flora of summer Is seen, the leaf, berry or spray, which Imitates the sparse and wistful growth of winter, la more the thing. Among these deckings holly and mistletoe appear, these forming with green leavea the entire hat In some Instances. A very stunning coat worn with a white moire hat, trimmed with a soft wreath of gardenias, was in a soft cloth with a nap- like eiderdown. This somewhat clumsy material was curiously and clumsily treated though the result obtained was eminently satisfactory. Made In a three-quarter box shape, the skirt of the garment hung In Inverted box pleats. These were tied at Intervals with silk cords and produced a alot-seam look. The same treatment ap peared at the outer lino of the large aleeves, which were puffed Into pointed cuffs, heavily stitched. The deep cape col lar waa of a very handsome white lace, with the tie strings of the same cords, with pike finish used elsewhere. Long, half-fitting coata of black or blue velvet are worn by aome of the stylish matinee goers. These may be entirely plain, with only fur trappings to set them Off, but many a velvet coat severely simplo on the outside will show front facings of white aatln magnificently embroidered. Again, thla facing may display at the outer edge only a narrow line In ribbon velvet, generally black, but not Infrequently sky blue. This device for a little additional elegance Is as pretty as it Is Inexpensive, and as euch coats are made to lap at the front, the Inside trimming need only show on occasions. Then, of course, the fronts are worn open and slightly turned back. In open wraps smooth cloth In ivory white and In a soft shad? of old red arc materials approved by the ultra-fashionables. The cloaks are made in various ways and all models which lean to quaint and picturesque effects are Immensely admired. A stunning wrap- In mantilla style dis played pointed "anger" sleeves reaching al most to the bottom of the skirt. At the top the sleeves were short enough to re veal arma gloved to the elbows, and back and front the full skirt of the wrap came oaly to the waist. White cloth embroidered In white com- aosed this elegant creation, whose edges were bordurcd with brown sable. Further contrast was raado at the neck, where, over a round collar cf the embroidered cloth, fell a second one of turquoise velvet, alto fur edged. Peep ccllirs of white cluny and other fashionable laces deck the red coats, which Elfin of the suffering and danger in store for her, rob the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her : ihadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of wome; have found that the ue of Mother's Friend during pregnancy roU confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is u god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning sickness," and other dis- $l.oo per bottle.

Cluny Is a lace Just now much In favor, and In dead white, cream and string color It la seen on the most elegant of the French Importations. Queer Opera Raiment. Not the least charming features of opera raiment la the muffling In which fair woman envelopes her bead for the ahort street run. This, to ensure the safety of the elab orate coiffure aa well as becomlnguess, must be of some airy textile, auch aa lace, chiffon, tulle or net, though many box ownera wear fur-trimmed hoods, whose tolldttv la no drawback to their charm. These are attached to long circular capes, with wadded ailk or fur linings or. If the wearer Is a young girl, the hood may be separate from the wrap, with the wadded lining turning over to form a simple face border. The gauzy head muffling are commonly In squares, In the dimensions of the usual liberty neck muffler. Feather and flower edgea appear on the chiffon ones, which coquettish borderlngs frame a pretty coun tenance seductively and add something to tha warmth of the ends, which are wrapped around the throat. Other thin head scarfs display silver or GOWN'S. gilt spangles and when these match the costume white with white and black with black the effect la bewllderlngly beautl ful. - Looking- Her Best. More than ever la It the aim of .woman to consider primarily her looks and any thing which tends to ber beautlflcatlon Is accepted with open arma. With this state of things stylea which have no other virtue than novelty cannot exist long, and hav Ing run their brief career they come to the usual finish bargain counters. And here let us tarry a moment, for Christmas Is over and all the shops have caught the bargain fever. Everywhere one sees things which, at the beginning of the season were often three times the price now aaked, and here and there something really desirable may be picked up. First among these things may be reckoned the sets In gray squirrel, which a panto of tear lest the skin should not be worn next season haa greatly reduced In price. A long stole collar finished with three fox tails and a "milliner's" muff the flat sort with shaped flounces at the openings composes one of the prettiest of the squir rel sets. Originally 175, the price of this Is now $40, and such furblshtngs would give a look of splendor to the plainest gown The flower hats have also fallen much In price, many f 35 models now going for $12, while a sireet gown, which was once $50 or more may be had for $20 or less. The price asked for the bargain does not alone depend upon freshness of condition or splendor of materials. The usefulness of the garment and the popularity of tha model are the main things considered, so that elaborate finery and the plainest wear may often be (ound In the same heap. Isefol Street Salts. Two pretty reduced gowns, shown by a good Broadway firm offer pleasing sugges tions to the women needing a useful street suit. Made In pale brown cloth, the skirt of one has a drupery effect over two deep flounces. Brown soutache outlines the un even edge, as well as the hems of the flounces. The same trimming also shows on the bodice, which Is made with double basquea. The sleeves are in long puffs, be ginning under a close shoulder cap and ending at light braid-trimmed cuffs. With this frock a brown rloth turban with a Persian lamb brim and a lamb collar and muff will be found stylish accessories. The second dreis Is of blue and black bouclc. with broad-tall trimmings. The skirt has a box-pleated front and a foot border cf the fur, which on the jacket over lays a deep collar of the b:ucle. A slashed Eton In two sections, the odd little coat it made even more unique by wld?. double sleeves, which suggest the sentimental arm covering of long ago. These are also slashed and trimmed, like the rest of the garment, with black bone buttons In groups of three. nfjs& u n rdeai hich an women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of child-birth. The thou rht Hits of embroidered trimmings and galoon and braids In many decorative varieties are seen among the bargains of lesser consequence. These decorations in more or less quantity embellish the gowns of the hour and with careful selection one may make even such fragments do stylish duty. For example, wide and narrow braids are put together, fancy and plain, round and flat. Then the tiniest bits of tlntej embroidery or heavy lace will do for a fancy stock, this detail rarely matching the bodice with which It Is worn. Buttons, too, provide charming ornamen tation. If too many are not used, and some of the handsomest of the season's buttons can now be bought for a song. Smoked and white pearl are deslrcolc sorts, espe cially If they are large at.il shanked, as In limited number such kinds are put on all the new shirtwaists. For a imiirt hnrlln In aillr lara nr vol . vet the gaily flowered pompadour buttons re most embellishing, but at the most six only should be used two fastening the postillion to the belt at the back, two closer together at the front of the belt and two on the stock or vest. MARY DEAN. WOM.VS rRIVH.F.f.ES. The Jost Valuable Possession n for mal Woman Can Acq n I re. Whoever says an unexpected thing at a public dinner, and 3ays It well, Is entitled to the gratitude of the company, comments Harper's Weekly. No matter if the unex pected thing runs counter to some of the convictions of thoBe present; the license that Is Issued to an after-dinner speaker carries the right to relieve the mind, oth erwise no one worth hearing would take such a license out. The remarks of Miss Josephine Dodge Daskam at the "Pilgrim Mothers' Dinner'' last week. In New York, had this surpassing merit of being unexpected. The dinner was given on the anniversary of the landing of tho Pilgrim mothers, by members of the New York Legislative league. Most of thorn are pronounced woman suffragists, solici tous for all the right that woman can ob tain by legislation or constitutional amend ment. Miss Daskam's theme was "The American Olrl of the Future." She was not very Btrenuous about rights, reminding ber listener that the recent multiplication of women' rights had not perceptibly loos ened the hold of "our brother" on the ad vantage he had always possessed, nor in. creased the strength of women, she sug gested that the girl of the future may have to choose between her present privileges and her rights. In which case, said she, "I should advise a ' young girl who asked me what to choose, to hang on to her priv ileges and let her right go." When we read that In the paper the next day we all smiled, and said It was a Joke on tho "mothers." Mis Daskam went on: "If you cannot In this generation get your vote you can always get your voter. I don't think the young girl has changed very much. She has no more mind than she uaed to have, though she may use her mind a little differently There are two thing which woman must always have had to be, ince the creation of the world, to be suc cessful: she must be good, and she must be charming. If she is not good, the world cannot progress; If she Is good, and noth ing else, abe will be aa dull aa anything the world ever made; but If she can be good and charming her heritage and posterity can ask absolutely nothing better." Miss Daskam spoke for the majority. Most of the rights the legal rights that have been won for American women In the last fifty year were due and overdue, were well worth winning, and are well worth keeping, but they have not put her in a po sition where she can afford not to be charm ing. A large share of success In this world goes by favor. There are women who make their way and win their dues by sheer abil ity and persistence, but the commoner ex. perlence Is that the women who get what they want win It more by grace than by main strength. A lot of valuable qualities go to the making of a charming woman Intelligence, the quick sympathy whlch le at the bottom of what we call "tact," kind ness, unselfishness, sweetness. Charm has not much to do with physical beauty, ex. cept aa that itself Is a reflection of tho Inner spirit, for charm Is mainly spiritual. No body should, scarcely anyone does, disdain It a an attribute of weakness, for, rightly understood. It stands out as a form of strength. After all that has been done for American women by legislator and educators, and college builder and reformers, it still re main true that the most aluable posses Ion a normal woman can acquire la a suit- Wl TOir; O ' V1 M 'ill 4m r ' iWi 'A OFERA MUFFLINGS CLOTH able and satisfactory man. Nothing else is quite so serviceable In 'promoting the ful filment of hr destiny and her content whll-' it is in the process of fulfilment. Nothing else if she is normal nnd there are very few women who are not considerably normal julte) takes a man's place with her. One of her most valuable privileges is that of selecting her man, ot picking and choos ing and taking her time about It, and pos sibly even of changing her mind after she had bepun to think she knew It. It Is ob served that women who are good, and have the luck to be charming also, have great advantages In carrying this important pro. cess of selection to a successful issue. More men are available for such girls to choose from, and once the choice is made the re sulting contentment is more apt to endure and to wax, instead of diminishing. The most that legislatures can do for married women Is to protect them from bad hus bands. Choosing good ones Is a matter of personal enterprise which laws can do lit- tie to promote. But of course a woman who baa few right and Is in complete pos session of a satisfactory and competent hus band is better off than if she had more rights and no satisfactory means of real izing her destiny. If the American girl ever has to choose between her rights and her privileges Including the privilege of being charming, and this Invaluable privi lege of selecting a man that suits her she will undoubtedly do well, as Mls Daskam advises, to hold on to her privileges and let her rights go. But she will hardly have to make such a choice. She will retain her privileges, anyway, and all the rights Bhe tan make up her mind to want, besides. Frills of Fanhlon. The more gossamer the sleeves the more fashionable. The newest tortoise shell comb resembles a twisted Louis bow, - Lattice work of chenille forms the trim ming for tome separate waists In satin. Spanish shaped turbans of the same ma terial as the gown, relieved with a band of able, are mouisti. A white satin striped gauze for evening has autumn leuves painted upon It and a thick ruchlng of flowers borders the skirt. Rich embroidery In pale green silks nnd ribbon work upon a somewhat darker green satin, combined with fine lace, makes a most effective trimming. Borne of the newest and prettiest gauze gowns show an applique of lisse flowers, leutless blooms forming a border at the hem of the skirt and around the neck of the corsage. , An example of the elaborateness that dis tinguishes the newest wrist bag is one of biscuit colored embossed suede embroidered with daisies. In the center of each flower Is a pink pearl encircled by chenillo petala outlined with faint tun threads. Tho clover leaf Is a favorite design In the Jewelry of the moment. An exquisite trefoil brooch Is set with three big dia monds with an emerald lit the center, while the opal adorns another pin In four-leaf clover pattern. A sapphire brooch In trefoil effect shows one leaf sage green, another red as a ruby and the third in the familiar deep blue tint. Necklaces have come into euch universal employment as ornamorits that a woman without one is conspicuous. Yet necklace Is not the proper word. Chains of precious, semi-precious anil valjeless stones and oeada are wound twice, three times, a doze:i times around the neck, and then the slack falls, perhaps, 40 the ground. , The newest way of wearing a chain is SWAGGER MATINEE COATS, MANTILLA AND ERMINE STOLE. not In necklace form. Heads are strung to a length of. say, three yards, and the string is weighted with tassels. The string is twisted around the neck a couple of times anil Its pendnnts swing freely and clatter. The variety, lengih and weight of these ornaments are astonishing. In black teak or boa wood the size of the beads Is enormous. A usual sort of chain Is mado by firlnlng small, vari-cnlorecl beads, such as a year ago would have been left to children or squaws, sepHratlng them at Intervals by l-.irrr and more complex orna ments. The making of novel chains has become an occupation, at which college girls and reduced gentlewomen make a precarious living. For ami Abont Women. Countess Balazar, an Italian writer o? note, Is receiving much social attention In liowton. Mary Johnston, the novelist, begins her literary work at 4:.' In the morning. Per haps this may be the reason she leaves her readers so much In the dark. Dane county, Wisconsin, women have in vaded the Melds of Industry regularly occu pied by men to a remarkable extent. The information that Mrs. Prank Clapp, a bride of lx months, has taken her husband's place as a carrier of a rurul mall delivery route comes as the last of a series of similar announcements. Several other women, wives of mall carriers, have taken their husbands' places when they were sick. The countess of Aberdeen has accepted the nomination by the Canadian and other national councils of women as president of the International council, to succeed Mrs. May WriRht Sewall.
