Cream white heavy Mnen paper, fitted in square envelopes, octavo size, is “de rigeur” for all formal correspondence; however, many tints of paper are also chosen. Robin's egg blue and silver gray are very popular, while lavender, cafe au lait and pink have their vota- ries. A smeller size than the octavo, in similar color and quality, serves for note paper. All formal {avitations for weddings and receptions, dinners and menu cards should be engraved upon fine white pa- Der of exquisite satiny texture. Mourning etationery is ef gray paper, bordered with black, the width of this edging decreasing as time elapses; this, of course, fa marked in black. Hand- some white paper is also bordered and marked in black. For the seaaon of half mourning an ukre fashionable woman uses violet paper, bordered and marked in purple, while another selects silver gray paper, edged and marced im slate bronze. The “plain embossed” marking ss used by the exclusive, modestly ele- gent, both in and out of mouraing. It is truly refined and lovely in effect if the die has been cut handsomely by a skilled artisan. Seals have by no means been discard- ed, end the dainty escretoire is not com- Dlete in appointments without the tiny waxen taper in a wee silver candie stand, accompanied with small ellver snuffers to smother the little light after the perfumed wax has been used. Dinner cards and menus seem to oave attained the height of artistic per- fection. For ladies of flowery taste there are cupids, bits of pink and white dimpled loveliness poised @bove the card amid fruits and flowers. The name is written below in silver or gilt; then there are butterflies, asparkle in gold and flecked in gorgeous color. These bid fair to flutter into the festivities of the winter, for all the modish importa- tions in gowns, millinery confections and bric-a-brac reveal the gayly devel- »ped moth. A humorous conceit presents @ don- «ey’s head peering over the edge of the card, as if to announce the name in a “bray.” Placed upon the board laden with festal and floral decorations we are reminded of “midsummer night's dream”—but never mind, most of us garland donkeys. For the sage and wise man there are cards presenting droll little figures im- mersed in massive volumes that all but conceal them. A glimpse of knicker- bockers and silk hose and buckles would make us think that the sage be- ieves wisdom lies far behind or quite ahead of us, evidently belonging to the »loomer period, whenever it is to be. (EA SE Fashions for Mourning. All dresses for deep mourning are in black lainage and English crape dyring the first period, and black silk fabrics and lace for the second; silks of violet, pansy, lilac, mauve, gray, black and white colors for half mourning during the third period. Widows’ mourning should be worn for a year and six weeks. Some even prolong the period to 18 months. In the first case lainage is worn during the first six months with | crape; during the next six months silk | and lace and during the last six months nalf mourning materials. In the second | case deep mourning, woolen fabrics and 2rape are worn for a year, silk and lace tor three months and half mourning for three months. At the beginning of mourning a long ‘ress should be worn in the house with aeaddress of crape. The English wid- ow’s cap, with a small, white diadem, is in favor just now. Trimmings of white batiste are also worn on the sleeves and at the neck. They are pleasanter wear than black crape trim- mings. Mourning for a father or mother, ’ather-in-law or mother-in-law e@hould be worn 12 months—six months wool and crape, three months silk and three months half mourning. Mourning for | a grandfather, grandmother, brother or | sister, brother-in-law or sister-in-law is | worn six months, the first three months lainage, not too dead, and without Eng- | lish crape, but with black lace and jet passementerie and feathers for trim- mings. Half mourning during the last three months. Slight mourning is for an uncle or an aunt and is worn three months. Black silk for six weeks and p halt mourning for the remainder of the time. All other mourning is optional and is not worn longer than three weeks. ———$_~ Fooled. Two young men who were neatly duped by a good-looking girl at Mineral Springs Park not long ago have decided that there is no fun in riding on a to- boggan, anyhow. They were not ac- | quainted with each other, nor with the young lady whose foresight proved such | a source of embarrassment to them, but | all three crowded together on the front | seat of a toboggan car, with the girl in | the middle. The principal feature of this slide is a darksome tunnel, where | many cooing couples surreptitiously en- gage in osculation, and where the sur- roundings are generally masculine | arms. When this point was reached | each young man had resolved to kiss | that girl. They did not time the oper- | ation correctly, however, and when the the darkness the | spectators sent up a mighty shout of | laughter. The youths had been detect- | +d in the act of saluting each other, for | the girl had divined their intentions and nad leaned forward in the hope of pro- ducing just such @ result.—Philadelphia t:ercr= THE WASHINGTON BEE.
