The men ored stitching or black or white; gentle appeared to admire, and the girls said: men, of course, must always wear self - "Oh, you sweet thing!" you know how they said it meaning the dress. Another ccstume just rent home from madame's is a pearl-gray rueltor, that shade of gray with white lights. The skirt is perfectly plain, with the two inch sweep in the back. The Beams are lapped. The coat has a square box front, double-breasted, t-ght-Btting back with very high flaring collar. The waist, when the coat is laid aside, shows a creation that tatces from the severely plain effect. It is perfectly plain in the back, with a slightly pointed waist. The front is a mixture of jacket and blouse, gold embroidery, white 6atin and white lace. The blouse is formed of white satin covered with the white lace, havkg the pattern traced with gold thread. At the side the jacket effect is finished with an applique flower design of the white satin edged with button holing in gold thread. The suit has a hat of white gray felt, the brim raised on one side and filled in next the hair with gray velvet and satin rioters with yel low centres centres not showing par ticularlyand gray velvet loops and gray cock's plumes sweeping over the crown and down over, the brim; gray gloves stitched with black; a white veil dotted with black chenille and edged with black lace, and, of course, patent leather shoes. This costume is suitable for matinees, five-o'clock teas, theatres and getting about luncheons and such at"Ders," Sherry's, the Waldorr and the like as makes evening dress too con spicuous. Beige, in the palest shade, is another exquisite color for a costume of this kind. It is delicate, but absolutely correct. Taffeta silk, like our grandmothers used to wear, is a favorite again, and gowns of it are made as they were worn then ruffled to the waist and the ruf fles edged with narrow black velvet Brussels net is used very much for ruf fling also, with the black velvet edging. All skirts are not trimmed, however. There are the two extremes very plain or very much trimmed, but both having the clinging effect, the front and sides shaped to show tne outlines of the figure colored stitch'ng, but the dear things can vary the color of their gloves from deep reddish brick color to palest tan or duff. By the way, Adelaide, there's an awful lot of kicking going on this fall, and that is not slang. Trousers are so tight that the superlatively smart males cannot possibly arise from sitting posture and have these creased creations fall into proper.communion with ankles and foot leather without the ungrC3ful acd ple beian kick, and even then the sugges tion of wrinkles remains at tne knee. And do you know, dear, it 19 really quite a surprise to discover through this fall style for tiousers how bicycling has ruined the sj mmetry of the legs of some of the dearest fellowe. Really, the trous ers should flare a bit from the knees down to conceal this wonderful develop ment ot muscle.
