A very clever young woman whose finances were suddenly reduced to the lowest terms tells me how she ! planned a “Cheesecloth” Christmas for many of her friends. She made dusters for housekeepers, prettily feather stitching them with different colored silks and wash cottons. By stitching several thicknesses together she made serviceable and sanitary dish cloths. Then there were useful covers for trunk trays (she first took the precaution to get the sizes). Pads for dresser and chiffonier drawers she made with one layer of cotton be- tween delicately scented with violet sachet powder. For the new babies she did the most fascinating cover- lets, lining them with lambs wool, tufting them with pink and blue worsted and buttonholing around the edges. For a bride going to house- keeping in a modest little home she procured the measurements of the basement windows and built curtains of cream cheese cloth with a deep hem at the bottom. (heesecloth laundry bags lined with a colored cambric are acceptable, also bags for string. Taking it as a whole she says her Christmas that year was a great success. I am glad to tell about it while there is yet time for others to go “and do likewise.” Cheesecloth makes excellent curtains for serv- ant’s rooms and as protectors for party gowns on the back of closet walls where the dainty frocks are hung. Novel Bazar Idea. This bazar scheme was carried out with great success and was no more difficult than just having plain booths in the ordinary way. The posters sald: “Come and See the Seven Ages of Woman." At the first table the “First Age” was cleverly repre- sented by having all the articles per- taining to babies, even “Baby” books. which a book store sent on commis- sion. The attendants were dressed as infants and were most fetching, I assure you. The second table f{l- lustrated “Childhood” and had dolls and toys galore, with those behind the booth dressed as children aged from “five to ten."” “The Sweethearts’ Table” came next, with all sorts of dainty articles for engagement pres- ents, heart and slipper-shaped place cards, candy and all sorts of goodies packed attractively to go as gifts to college girls and swecthearts. As it happened two engaged couples had charge of this department and it created loads of fun. The fourth was the “Bride’s Table,” done in pure white, with artificial orange blossoms and white roses for decorations. Those in charge were two brides. Or- ders were taken for marking linen. The “Mother's Table” came as the “Fifth Age” and was presided over by matrons. Cakes and pies were for sale, also darning and laundry bags, broom bags, etc. The “Spinster’s Table” was conducted by a merry bunch of unappropriated blessings. They had the tea table and had = beautiful Angora cat with her kit tens; tho latter were for sale. Need- less to gay they went like “hot rakes.” The “Grandmother’s Table” made the DRESS FOR YOUNG GIRL Coral-pink nun's velling and silk are VAVQAVCOC | combined in this dainty little dress.' l The material for skirt is eet in box- pleats each side front and back, a deep band of silk being laid between M. | the pleats at the foot; the material Lanier, Miss Rickman and Miss| for bodice is also arranged in pleats, with silk lald between; the small yoke 1s of piece lace.

MADAME MERRI. Fur trims the collars, cuffs and sometimes the entire outline of the new evening coats, Large collars are cut in odd shapes. Some are of lace, some of fur, and others of the most gorgeously beaded tissues, Fur appears boldly on hats—odds and ends of the peltries that go to make up muffs and scarfs-——and worn to match. There 18 a craze for the silk ribbon and coarse thread roses that grow ev- ery day more important in the deco- rative field. Prominent French dressmakers are making ecxtensive use of Cluny lace to trim gowns of satin, fancy crepes and chiffon. Buttons—huge and themselves of fur—distinguish many of the scason’s small as well as large furs, and nearly every other scarf is buttoned. * Among the special points observed in many of the new blouses are the long sleeves and the armholes and the frequently higher collars. Some lovely evening wraps are shown in chiffon velvet. The wide band of embroidery or heavy lace is now at the knees and not the lower edge. We wish all our Customers a Happy New Year!
