"WHEN MY LADY THE EVENING MODE. AUTUMN SHADES AT

WALKS ABROAD.”

When my lady walks abroad this winter her coats will provide a perfect setting for her beauty. Their line, new and unusually

elegant, their weft zich materials, and above all the colours which the arbitors of fashion have decided that we all wear in the coming season, distinguish them the costs of past winters. Nerer, perhaps, have coats been cut with

from

quite so much care as these which are now arriving in Hong Kong.

Pamek has just received a collec. tion of conts from "Dudency, ' which you should certainly see. A more lavish use of fur is made than was characteristic of last season's models and the skins are chosen with great care to carry out, the motive of the line and material. One wrap in a lovely wine shade is trimmed with squirrel, the bright navy with beaver and a pretty beige with shaved lamb.

A Novel Idea.

I mw à nàvel and must prac- tical idea in Whiteway, Laid- law's this week. The girl who likes to make up her own frocks but is doubtful about quantities will be expecially pleased. For $14.50, you can get, neatly put up in a bor, a dress length of pure woullen goods in two pieces, one plain of which you will make the bodice and the second checked for the skirt. The materials are good and there is plenty of "choice of colour,

·There is also a wide selection of rullen drene materials by the yard, and I hear that a big shipment of ladies' shoes, in black and nude satin, black cålf --and silver tissue, has arrived,

FOR THE HOME MAKER.

Do your chairs need new dresses? Are the colours of your erettones getting washed out and the trim edger getting out of shape? If so go this week and have, a look at

the new cretounes and furnishing tissues now on show at Whiteaway, Laidlaw's. These new materiala are quite extraordinarily attractive with beautifully blended, colourings, and, an important point, they are all guaranteed fast to sun and wash- ing. You know, of course, that Whiteaway's 'make up loose' covers and do it very well as many of your friends will tell you. Their charges are most reasonable too."

A lovely collection of down quilts, mostly in bright colours, ari rived at the same time.

Evening gowns have curious appeal of their own, stronger and more universal, I believe, than that made by any other article of dress. It may be that the greatest dress wakers seem to express themselves most perfectly in evening gowns, or that nearly every woman feels that they afford the best frame" for her beauty, but whatever may be the explanation, I think, that the fact is beyond dispute,

Evening gowns-sveite," magni- fcent, dainty, severe-which ward will best describe them this winter The latitude allowed by the mode allows you to choose whichever you like according to your type, pro- vided it is well cut and the mate- rials are good. In Lane, Craw- ford's now there is a magnificent gown in cerise transparent velvet and gold tissue, with a cleverly ar- ranged hem line. An ensemble suit- able for a dinner dance or restaur-. ant wear, is exquisitely dainty with "its combination of georgette and Ince in a wonderful fesh tone.

Evening Frocks,

I learn that Eve has just re- ceived a few very smart evening frocks from Paris. These should be very well worth-seeing na Eve's buyer has n fuir for choosing clothes with originality as well as charm. These frocks like the rest of the things which you will find chez Eve ure very reasonable in price. Some af. tractive drear armaments and French flowers arrived by the kame mail.

CARE OF GOLF CLUBS.

[BY A WOMAN GOLFER.]

Women golfers to whom the sum- mer months are the close season will now be turning longing eyes to the golf links and thinking of their clubs lying inactive in the Jumber room.

The workman cannot produce his best work with tools which are not in good condition, nor can the golfer expect to play well with faulty clubs. While not in use, the clubs have doubtless lost the pristine beauty that was theirs he- fore they were laid aside,

Cooler evenings and a revival of dancing were suggested in the wardrobe of evening frocks. One of gold, in taffeta and velvet, was particularly attractive. but hardly less so were two lovely frocks ano in blue taffetas and another in a lovely shade of old rose.
