PARIS, June 10, 1877.
Several articles of dress are striving
for a share of the fame acquired last
Sunday by the Count de Lagrange's
winner at the races. Nine. Judic's hat,
Nine. Musard's hat, and all the hats
purchased for Epson aud Ascot by
the Princess Of Wales are competing
for the grand prize in millinery. To
commence with Nine. Musard's. Iii
is a round black straw, trimmed with
a leather strap fastened on by a buck
lie. Nine. Judic's is a large black
straw with broad brlm round the
crown droops a long white ostrich
feather that falls low behind mixing
with a bouquet Of daffodils. 1t tarea-
tens to become as popular as tbs IA
NOUS "timbale' and the sauvergnate,p
both started by this famed idol Of the
public. But of all the headgear worn
and ordered this season the very DIS
tingue hats and bonnets selected by
the princess at Annie and Georgette's
are certainly the l~ovliest specimens Of
cunning invention admired this season.
Some out of the nine chosen arc FOR
her royal highncss herself; Others for
presents to friends at home aud for
maids Of honor. There are close fit
ting innocent beauties aud open lam
bales, besides a t%aatahzing blackber-
rying sort of shape that it would not
be safe to meet on i blue eyed girl in
every lane.
One to be wore by the Princess Is
a gilt straw, with way sky blue
plumes all around, a bend on cue side
and cut gold beads on the border. a
second is a black straw, with a c3ronal
of eefW feathers: another, velvet Dor.
der and a bouquet Of damask roses
on one side. A third is a white rice
straw trimmed with fully feathers, ;
black aigrette aud a black velvet bind
ing, or border, on which are two row,
Of cut silver beads.
The Princess, as well as othe.
crowned heads, has resisted all th'
tempting dessert hal ladies are be
ginning to wear on their Italian
straw. A juicy Orleans plum on
leafy branch, a blushing peach, flbert
and downy gooseberries are to b.
gathered above blonde and brun
chignons. Blossoms and fruit are o
the same twig very often, and a
these rural, ruddY orchard notion
must inspire their wearers with th
spirit of that sylvan song
Merrily, merrily. Will 1 sing now,
Under the blossoms that hang on the bough.
1t has been noticed women who wea
fruit are pleasanter than those who az
oln their personsiwith whole breasts {
glaring birds, and much more love
able, too, than those who wear ,innet
thrushes and redbreasts. Be that it
may, a women in her prime may no
glory in flberts, grapes and appl,
that look so near falling. Then agai
certain ladies are delighted to con
out in a peach that will do all IL
blushing, the bloom SO long banishe
from her own check!
Another competitor for some kii
ofglory is the scarf with a "Pierrette
collar. This later object is deep fri
falling over behind from shoulder
shoulder.
The carrick capes are a coachmar
concern. They are a succession
.ippets, one over the other, and VIII,
only three muslig e are worn Il
middle capes is often Of a materi
different from that of the top and u
der one. Whenever made of pu
white they are much edged with La
and rendered at snowy as the feathe
ruffs Of prime poultry.
The weather being very warm in Pa
1t has appeared desirable to live in ope
worked linen, lawn, tussor and anythi
full of holes. The latest idea is to G
into netting. The nettea tuniques ha
all round elongated slender figures
naturally as if womankind was nothi
more than g herring or a whiting. Thu
are Melted mittens, stockings and fga
nets for Towering curls. This fashion
a great concession for a sex that ma
tains it is not easily caught.
A closing observation intended fol
hint is that if it is now considered
preme want of taste to appear on the t,
in satin attire. Nine. Ratazzi was &C
spicuous in court costume, but the real
istocracy OF our fdubourg were seen
light cheviots, hannels, woollens ma
without any other than "manlyn era
and a lady, it is well known, who can
an hour or two adopt this peculiar st.
will ever please more among horsen
than in white faiile that is ontrageou
