STREATER. § E e S e L 22 2] NE of the most elaborate ot the many developments of the cape is Dictured here. It is a two-plece gar- ment in which a very full, long cape 18 set on to a surplice. It is the most ample and enveloping of all the capes which the season has brought out. The material used is a soft, heavy black satin, with a lining of white satin, lighter in weight but equally as soft. The surplice portion of this garment crosses below the bust line in the front and hooks in the back. The ma- terial is turned back, in the form of revers, and provided with a ripple col- lar across the back of the neck. The lower pr cape portion of the garment is set on to the surplice by means of a piping. In order to provide for the ample fullness which ripples about the bottom the cape is cut in circular form. It is 12 inches longer in the back than in the front. The fronts are rounded off and sloped gradually to the longest point at the middle of the back. Made in this way the lining is al- ways in evidence and may be featured 8o that it becomes the most conspicu- ous part of the garment. Instead of ITH the disappearance of the nor- mal waist line girdles have be- come wider and still wider. They wrap the figure in many cases from below the bust to the thigh, making a straight line instead of a curved line at the front and back. Lees extreme and more popular are these from nine to twelve inches wide, which are ad- justed loosely about the waist. Two girdles of this kind, which merit attention because they show new features in their construction, are ehown here. One of them s made of moire ribbon not more than three inches wide. It is in golden-brown color shading from light to dark. Lengths of this moire ribbon are sewed together by hand in the very tiniest of seams. In this way ribbon too narrow for the present styles can be used to make wide girdles. Using the same idea, silk ribbons of | other kinds are widened by machine | stitching them to velvet ribbons. A | very attractive girdle is made by black velvet ribbon on both edges of a colored satin ribbon or one of brocade. o ————————— THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKEMAND, E., SEPT. 30, 1914. | the plain, white satin there are rich and brilllant brocades, or broad and pronounced stripes, or a great vadety of plaids of all descriptions from which a choice of linings may be made. For general utility the white lining will serve best. There {8 plenty of room in this cape to draw it up over the arms if one wishes the hands free, and even 8o | the fronts will hang fairly straight | and the cape have the appearance of a loose garment with flowing sleeves, Few capes this season are capes pure l and simple, but of cape-like garments there are many. This model may bol recommended for anyone who aspires to the really magnificent black velvet or velvet in colors for evening wear. The style is suited to rich fabrics and dress occasions, and it is unsuited to ordinary cloths or to bulky woolen fabrics. One may not hope to find anything more graceful than the cape, for eve- ning wear, and the individual wearer can improvise her own special style in managing the cape and thereby achieve distinction. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Lengths of silk may be bordered in the same way. By this means short lengthe of ribbon or silk which one may have on hand are easily trans- | formed into girdles. It seems the smart woman can hardly own too many of these elegant accessories. The striped girdle shown in the pic- ture is made of satin ribbon striped with velvet. It will be noticed that no bows and loops are used in these particular styles, although there are plenty of them to be found. These girdles are decorated with covered but- tons or buckles made of the ribbon and are fastened with snap fasteners. Almost without exception the fash- jonable girdles are boned to hold them in place. Even when a long sash is wrapped about the waist and tied in | | the back the girdle portion is boned | at the front and sides. JULIA BOTTCOMLEY. Stove polish is the name that has been applied to the shiny black waxed satin ribbon that has made its appear- | ance this season. HANGERS FOR CLOTHES SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE SCHEME OF DECORATION. Little Shapes Marked on the Wood and Then Treated With Ebony Stain in Manner Described Will Be Satisfactory. There i8 no need for one’s clothes to look crumpled when hangers to put them on can be had for one penny each. They are just in the raw state, it is true, but they can be simply and easily decorated in the following way. Make a few simple shapes on the wood, such as squares, little rounds, or diamond shapes; purchase a bottle of ebony stain, mark the shapes in with pen or brush and stain the back- ground with the ebony. A bottle of | the stain can be bought cheaply, and one bottle will decorate many hangers. It once going over is not sufficient, ! when the first coating is quite dry, do it again, then leave to dry thoroughly for a few days. Purchase a little white hard spirit varnish, and brush it over the hanger; the effect i3 beautiful and the article | | will look as though made of ebony and inlaid with ivory. If a poker ma- | chine is to hand, the shapes can be marked in with the poker point and { the whole of the background dotted { in with the poker, or the background | can be ruled out in squares and filled with lines going alternate ways. The hanger is then varnished over in the same way as the stained one and left | for a few days before being used. Before decorating these articles they should be first of all well sand- papered down until the wood is quite smooth. The hangers can also be dec- orated by twining ribbon round and| round and putting a small scent sachet at either end. Hangers decorated by the poker or stain are excellent to | &lve to the men folk as presents; thn)‘l {are fine coat-hangers. A set of six or more hangers would go very well at, { @ bazaar, for they are nec ry arti- j cles and the nevel manner of troating them is very ptt=nnticn A Longer Season o Florida Citrus Fruits Heretofore Florida fruits have had too short a season. The fine prices usually secured for late oranges and grapefruit could be had on a much larger volume of fruit than the State now markets and for a longer period Buckeye Nurseries have urged the planting of late varieties for many years. Many of the most prosperous growers of the State owe their success to this advice. he best late oranges and " Buckeye Nurseries Catalog Tells What to Plant Also it gives suj tions for selecting location of grove and on evei other phase of citrus fruit culture. It is a complete guide to success and all its advice has been tried out in the experience of successful growers. Varieties are described in detail; many of them are illustrated in natural colors. Some of the best groves of the State are pictured to show proper methods of planting, cultivation, fertilization, spraying, marketing, etc. Too expensive to permit of indiscriminate distribution, the book is free to all intending planters.
