"The llnaian mea, ,m ._m If anyone desires a novelty to which to ask the family of intimate friends on Thanksgiving night, try this: Is sue your invitations on Indian post ?ards or birch bark paper, asking the .guests to come to the "Indian meal." .Serve the following menu and have a wigwam for the table centerpiece, %rtth birch bark canoes to hold salted peanuts or parched corn: Cornmeal Mush or "Hasty Pudding" , with Milk. Fish or Game. Succotash Bean Soup. Brown Bread or Indian Meal. - Corn Bread (Johnny Cake), j Indian Pudding. ; If the guests will come in Indian costumes, so much the better. After (?upper have a bead-stringing con lest; use the boxes of gay-colored ones that come for kindergarten use. MME. MERRI. Wash net is much made use of by the makers of lingerie. The combi nation underbodice and petticoat in the sketch, made of batiste, is edged with a net ruffle, and a narrow plait ed frill of net heads the tucked jounce. Blue shoulder straps, a blue hand of satin ribbon to hold the bodice ; Trill of lace in place, and a band of blue ribbon, ending In a bow un idor the net frill, complete this slip. 1 Skirts Are Gathered. 1 AH smart skim- now are gathered at 'the back of the waist line and the I plain, closely fitting skirt-at this fpoint-is distinctly out of the run ining. Of course, the fullness is be I tween the waist line and hip only, for i below the hips the garment must cling i closely to the figure. Popular Collar. . The beautiful Medici collar has ?reached a high place in popular favor ?and is expected to retain widespread I yogue this fall and winter. TY PICAL. OF SEASON'S HATS Has Lines That Are Original and Mo dish Without Any Undue Ex aggeration. In harmony with the season's oth er daring modes the hats are dashing and unusual. The woman whose hats are few must walk warily among the pitfalls of bizarre shapes and trim mings lest in an unguarded moment she fall. Smartness she may have, but extremes are the prerogative of the woman with an extensive ward robe. The lines of the hat shown here are original and modish without ex aggeration. This hat has a stiff brim and crown r-overed with deep purple velvet, the crown bowl shape, the brim In the Latest Style, rolling slightly on the edge. About the crown ls laid a flat band of self tone velvet with triple bow placed di agonally below a smart wing in the same shade of purple. HOLDS THE VEIL IN PLACE Ribbon le Better Than Any Kind of Pin, and Certainly Looks Much Prettier. After the manufacturers have made all kinds of wonderful novelties In the way of pina to hold veils in place and -?VN^ ure half the size of your neck and sew a tiny clasp. From the other half sew the opposite side of the clasp. Now you have an effect of a black ribbon around your neck, if a low collar is worn. To put the veil on the hat first put around the neck and fasten the clasp, then take the two ends and draw up on the hat, drawing the veil into place as heretofore. It will be very neat and there will be no raw edge. This new idea increases the wear of the veil and keeps it fresh looking as long as it lasts. The very latest word in veils is a pale lavender with strange black fig ures that seem only to be on the sur face of the mesh. At most 6hops the ribbon will be sewed on by machine when the veil is purchased if the customer desires it. IDEAL DESIGN FOR THE BELT May Be Crocheted Either in Silk or In Linen Thread, Using the Afghan Stitch. Crocheted either in silk or in linen thread this makes a very satisfactory belt. For the linen thread use No. 30, with steel hook size one. Make a chain stitch of 25 s ts, turn. Miss first stitch, then take up ev ery following stitch and draw thread through, keeping all on hook. Take up thread and draw through two sts, then again, and draw through two stitches, repeating until all are worked off. Take up the sts again, putting the hook under each of the little upright loops, being sure not to miss the one at the end. Continue in this way, taking up and working off, until the belt is of length desired. Add any buckle that is liked. The belt may be made as wide as desired by making the foundation chain longer or shorter. Line the belt if wished. If made in the linen thread, use cream, gray, black or white thread. Tho stitch will be found very suitable for a belt worked either in linen or in silk. Perishable Materials. Everything nowadays, except lace and jewels, Beems to be perishable in very short space. Tulle, chiffon, silk velvets and taffetas moire have no ? stamina, and even furs are dressed and cut about to such an extent that they are utterly fragile. And yet, with all this, we are progressing toward common sense in our way of dressing. ! We no longer tight lace, we need not pinch our toes, it is very bad taste to wear a siove a size too small, and we | wear much less false hair than we did j a year or two ago. Treasurer's Notice.
