NEW YORK, July 13.-The fcrvid July dav
have brought into active service all the charm
ing tol1ettes Of organdy and la,rn that had bec
prepared to meet any unpleasantly ardent ed
yances on the part Of Old Sol F1owcrcd arn
surctrorgandics divide popularity with plain
colorcd ones, and in this latter variety palc
blue, cream. delicate usau7e, and pearl-gra
seem to be the favozite light tints, while ANON
darker shades brown, a rich chocolate, or chest
nut navy-blue, aud dark green are most au
proved. Styles for making up these Lowell
1abrits are Us varied as are the goods them
selves, and, while the polonaisc and other stylc
arc often seen, the favorite method seems
to combine skirt, ovcrdress, aud Jacket
Torchon and Valcncicnncs Lace are usct
pfofuscly in trimming these dresses, ant
. new fancy claborates the back o.
the jacket with Iaees arranged down the centre
scam Of the back after fashion known as zig
zas, or more elegantly as cascade style. Inscr
tions play prominent part iu the adornmcnt Of
these costumes, and novel arrangement o
them Shows them to much advantage Pulls oj
Insertion surnouut tue cdgings Or rufIlcs and
under the pulls ART placed ribbons Of some
bright colors, while ut intervals knots Of thu
same mingled with lace impart delightful
effect.
VERY PRETTY DRESS
exhibiting this style of trimming has the skirt
Of white organdy borlered by 4 deep-gathcrct,
aounce. This is edged by Va}enclcuncs iacc q
little more than an inch in width. Above the
t]ounee is scant puff OF insertion about three
inches wide, undcr which is a soft rose

is satin, SO arranged as to fall over the 1ounce.
The upper portion OF the dress is supplied By d
polonalse- This garment, exceedingly grace
ful, is cut at the throat in surp1icc shape, and
at the bottom of the front the corners are also
rounded, gk.iug Il similar effect. 4 narrow
lacc-edgcd rutfie finished the garnent, running
all around the neck down the front and along
the bottom. Following this outline is the put
OF insertion undcrla;d witt. tlle deli
cate rose ribbon, and long loops of
the same supply the fastenings for tic front
OF the polonaise. Tue slightly loose sleeves
are finished to correspond. This sort OF decor,s-
tion will certainly gain constantly in fayor as
it is pretty way OF tonfng and softcning brill
fanthued ribbons, and Of enhancing the deli
cate tints Of pa1cr ones.
An organdr OF pale 'nauye ground, shot with
points Of shaded cardinal, is most tastefnlly
made as follows: The trained skirt has gath
cred houncc eight inches deep surmounttd by
Tires narrow pleatings. The oycrdrcss is grace
fully draped at the back, and is Of plain pat
tern; but the arrangement Of the front is at
once nove1 and attractive. 4 piece the shape Of
Il triangle is cut out Of the trout, and the Open
ing thus formed is filled in with Il series OF nar-
row siac-p|eatings, each edged with tlnc Tor
chou >acr, as arc the tounce and plisses
on the skirt The jacket, threc-sourths fitting,
as are almost all made Of these fabrics, is trim

pleasing toilette. Servians singhatns represent
4 sort Of fish scale pattern in brown, navy blue,

trimming, aud the Breton the model after which
they are made. Madras and Scotch ginghaus
are i'll as great 1aVor us ever anu pretty toiiettes
for the scashorc arc made OF the1h.. There again
