GOWNS 'FORJTHE MIDDLE AGED.
Mothers and Grandmothers May Be At-
tired In Soft Bright Tints.
In color and in the shape of dress mat-
ters have altered very greatly to the. ad-
vantage of an elderly woman of late years.
It us‘ed to be an article 'of faith with her
and her dressmakcr that she must not be
too smart, and a sort of luinpiness pervad-
ed her general aspect. It is now, however,
the young people who insist that their
mothers and their grandmothers shall not
give thenisclves up in the matter.of dress
and take on for their own wear the hope-
less habiliments to which they once would
have been doomed. Daughters now throw

away their mothers’ caps or give them
to the housekeeper, and with a pretty tyr-
anny insist that the soft rolls of white
hair shall be arranged in such fashion as
to set forth to the best advantage the fad-
ing features that they love so well. The
mother of 60 protests and thinks she
gray and fears. thather new gown is too
fashionably cut. But'tliese‘ olfiections are
generally overruled, and both sons and
daughters love to see their mothers pretti-
ly dressed in soft bright tints and wear-
gracefnl figures that many women men-
age to retain well on into old age. The
middle aged woman of today is as smart
in dress as her prototype of 20 years age
was dowdy and antique. That this free
dam is occasionally misused is an una-
voidable thing; but, on the whole, it is-an
advantageous change, as the conscious-
ness of looking well always impro‘ym the
spirits and manner. .
The illustration shows a princess house
gown suitable for a middle aged woman.
. It is of Ophelia surah, lined with taffeta.
A flounce of lace, headed by pearl passe-
menterie, simulates a deep yoke. The belt
is of white satin ribbon, and a. tulle ruche
surrounds the neck. J UDIC CHOLLET.
