NEW TRIMMING.

CORK, TWINE AND STRAW.

The thing to remember fchese winter months is not to throw away any old pieces of cork, string, twine, straw, or patent leather.

I You will need them in the spring, for trimming your summer frocks.

Wβ havo not yet seen a design suitable for using up old beer bottle caps, but we did sec a couple of inverted brass door knobs used to fasten a neckline. A fashion preview is a stimulating eight. You realise that what is new in 1034 was old in 1004, but is still good. For instance, who-would have thought we would come back to taffeta petticoats to giv© us that rustle of 6pring? Or ruchings and knife-pleatings of jade chiffon under split ekirts? They're with us"again. In the city yesterday (says an Australian woman writer) we saw the cork, the straw, tlie twine, .the patent leather, and the petticoats. We saw also a delightful garment with a starched linen traycloth folded on its front as a collar. Wβ saw tailored net mounted on taffeta, and a reckless hat with a really foursquare crown.
