for evening, ora coquettish alec saelue, made
with puts OF inserting and lace, over strips OF
organdie or silk, 20 help wear out some OF the
many skirts Of silk and muslin that have accumu-
lated from season TO season: Or have you one Of
the charming breakfast sacques, made of sheer
lawn with bands and edges finished with smyrna
inserting and lace:
SacQaes are made, tins season, with the back
partly fitting and the fronts loose, and are neatly
finished with a hand of Inserting each side. and a
cascade Of lace through the centre The back IN
long. gaaceful seams, is finished across the bot
tom with side pleated iounce finger and a half
deep. And these sa9ues also help TO wear out
skirts that are wsistless and not fitted for any
thing else.
We sincerely hope the heat finds you vel pre-
pared. Ia case II does not, We beg Of you 20 at
once search over the old trunks and wardrobes.
AMI astonish yourself with the pretty old bits Of
old gowns, that You can remodel for yourselves
and the habies.
For the little ones the gabrielle is still in force,
but there are many bits Of lawn and cambria that
have been worn, and only the tops Of the skirts
are good, and that not long enough for the CAB
riee. In that case, Gu, square yoke. pompa-
dour that is square both back and front. and deep
to form the arm-hoe entirely, only the little
under the arm-pit. Line this with old thin muslin
so that will not lose color at once by perspira
ton. Then cut the skirt gored the same as for
gabrielle st the sides, only much wider. This is
gathered quite full in the yoke. Or, before cut
ting, lay il in quite WIDE box pleats, stitching
them in 70 little below the waist line. Attach 10
the yoke with cord, put in a little rufae or
Hamburg edge. Make the sleeves loose, and a
little below the elbow. Finish the bottom of the
sleeve and tbs neck the same the bottom of
the yoke. Perhaps, even then. the skirt is no;
long enough. Add a side-pleated rr,ffe. the
extreme edge Even if this IS little faded it will
not show when Heated. After il is finished. by

and remove the rest by washing, and boiling in

lay each side of the back centre three peats. and
three IN each side Of front Put a side-pleated

dressy look. put a tiny box pleating at both top
and bottom : then give clear starching and care

Fearing you may think We are economically
brain crSzed, we yill turn from these hints, and
tell you Of some of the pretty things We hare seen
during the past week.
A leghorn hat for a miss Of twelve has a broad
brim. dropping all around, and TUNED up 10 the
crown on the left side, Under ti.is there a full
cluster Of colored ribbon bows, with two long
streamers floating over the shoulder. The crown
is low and fat. Around this lis a band of yellow
leghorn braid, each edge finished with a yellow
satin piping At the left. this band forms loops
and from them spring two very handsome ostrich
tips. which droop gracefully over the crown
beautiful hat.
The Danichef, Of which We have made mention,
is gotten up in both black and white chips trim
med with lace. flowers, and feather tips. Some
have the wreath under the hrm at the left, Others
are finished with loops Of velvet, and aigre.te Of
pearl and steel. while the wreath trims the crown
and droops pret'ily at the back.
An improvement on dropping buds this season
is they are suspended ca tendril stems, so that
every movement Of the head, or a slight breeze
sway them naturally.
The N5t'ena fat is the new lawn and garden
hat, made Of light plated straw, and trimmed on
the outside with ruchings Of pink. blue. bu,f
tarfsfsn, with little loops through Of black or
colored narrow velvet ribbon. These hats come
IN slses for ladies, and down 70 year old girl
babies, and are cool and inexpensive.
Among the novelties are the Danicheff armle,s
for LADIES'. These are of jet and composed of open
hars, through which the black velvet or fancy
ribbon is inserted, with ends pendent, and these
with jet clasps on the extreme ends. These brace.
