various fabrics compriaed under tho general
head Of silk md woolen goods.
There nrc, however, a few novelties. Varic-
tics Of heavier spring goods exhibit basaticru
stripes, tn which tho ground Is diversified
by whttc thread and ono OF
harmonizinE color. Thus, upon brown,
arc tiny ntripca Of blue md whtc, and dark
blue With lines Of rcd and white. There Is a
preference for striped and figured goods, and,
combined with plain silks or sclf-colorcd cloths,
Ahey make charming toilettcs.
