midst Of the season, but for the breezes waiting
gently throug the largo open windows, reminding
the gay circle that they were in the vicinity of
woods and mountains.
The elegance of the toIettes vas particularly

Black becomes indispensable in the toettes OF
ladies OF fashion, not rs formerly, when il was

dress does not interfere with the robes Of varied
coloIs and the materials are rich and in good taste.
Indeed, the trimmings worn with black give it equal
elegance and distinction. Jet in fringes lase, is
worn with all materials. Upon moire and satin,
deep 1ounces Of cbantly, or ruches sf a,e, placed
"a tatliy, are much worn. Tafetas aounces are cut
and stamped In patterns, or covered with narrow
velyets initiating embroidery.

loped and embroidered. Some have narrow
trimming over the aounces Of jet, so delicately
worked as not to give the slightest heavincss or
weight to the dress The bodies were half high, or
open in front in he canelous form, and trimmed
with lace mixed with light ornaments In jet. The
same trimming ornaments the bottom OF tho half
