A traveling dress should be well supplied with pockets. The pretty stripes, soft flannels, and delicately shaded plaids are worn for lawn-tennis, croquet and archery suits. A very handsome suit can be made up at very little cost. The skirt should be short, and the boots or shoes worn very handsome, but serviceable, as these games are admirably adapted for showing off a pretty loot. The waist is generally made blouse shape, as it gives greater freedom of motion.
Black silk is in place on every occasion.
A lady shouid always count a black cashmere among her possessions. They are always useful and appropriate. White can only be worn by young, slender, and pretty women. Little women should affect small figures, delicate spotted linen, etc. Large ones cannot wear coquettish little bonnets and doll-like hats.
