FIRST FORTNIGHT IN AUGUST.

Costumes for the seaside, spas, and out
door wear are the sole preoccupaton of
the moment lhere is nothing new; but
the mantle with square ends in front. the
coachman's cape, the dust cloak, the peler-
inc and scarf, have all and each acdnired
the vogue which since spring has this wear
been extended almost exclusively TO polon-
| aiscs. The shapes now adopted will last
through the autumn. 1t is also safe to pro-
vide warm light wraps in barege and Shet-
land woods. Fichus have appeared in every
variety; some are large enough to be worn
as mantelets. Among useful trifes there is
one that can be very specially recommend

fashion of wearing a valuable watch sus-
pended from the belt is attended with GER

excursions. 1t takes no more room than
well folded shawl, but consists of a bag, a
ian, and Jointed en-tous-cas, holland over
dress, and pelerine. The material of the
latter two pieces suggests that it is intended
to preserve lady's travelling dress from
damp, dust. or tear; the fan and parasol
are made of the same. The overall is so
contrived that it falls into the folds laid BY
the manufacturer, as easily rs book closes,
so that it can be thrown off and collapse at
moments notice. 1t will be found of great
service on steamers and for Yachting par
ties.
The great variety of trimmings, the many
Inherent kinds of embroidery and the pro-
fusion OF flowers inaugurated this season,
have rendered it necessary to establish some
rule concerning the appropriateness of such
ornamentation. Women of taste have con-
cluded that lace and embroidery should be
preferred by the elderly. and floral orna.
ments by the young.
The aster diadem is the quietest.
The following casino dresses will convey
