There are all sorts of shawls and | wraps that may be worn indoors over the light evening frock without ac- tually taking from its light and air and some Americans, in | spite rm houses, have adopted | some one or another of these slight sarments. Dressmakers here, like | those abroad, are making coats or ~apes of chiffon or georgette to wear | at dinner time over light frocks. Many women feel that a drapery of this sort | adds much to the becomingness of the hard outlines of the heavily aded or spangled frock, the bright tter of which is perhaps a little tractive now than it seemed to | be carlier in the season. Sometimes these little wraps are made of the | same color and material as the frock, though sometimes a decidedly good ef fed may be gained by using chiffon or georgette of a darker hue. Thus a | heavily ngled frock of cyclamen shade is worn with a filmy coat of | wine-colored georgette. s of many sorts are still worn to provide this bit of extra warmth sometimes needed in the evening, and some of the dressmakers are making slightly shaped capes or coats from wls, which have the graceful drap- ery of the w1 and are at the same time quite casy to keep in place.

There is great diversity in human nature, but at the same time there are certain types that recur very fre- quently within each group of people.
