A New Haven woman recently applied
for divorce the day after she was mar
ried.
Sets, comprising collar, a handker-
chief and cuffs, of the old fashioned tat
ting, made of the finest thread, are new
and beautiful.
It appears that satin showing the de-
cided old gold hue for the ground, with
the shadings of royal purple, is classed
as one of the latest novelties.
Hose are very richly finished on the in
steps. Slippers of satin brocade and
damasse goods correspond in TINT with
the dress or the garniture.
New handkerchiefs have centers Of
white linen, borders of colored silk, and
are ornamented in one corner by the en-
broidered figure of a grenadier.
The Princesse model shows change
for the better. The skirt is not fiat; an
extra width is placed in the back, giving
quite bouffant expression.
Jewelry for the hair and imitation Jew
eled ornaments for this purpose care
seen in great quantities and variety in
the jewelry and fancy stores.
The hat of the passing moment is the
equestrienne, in rough gray felt, banded
with three narrow ribbons placed at in
tervals around the crown.
A Partisan fancy is to use several yards
OF white India cashmere in the place of
sort du bal in which the wearer envelops
herself from head to foot.
Birds of paradise, butterflies and in
sects OF all sorts in the form OF gold fila
gree and 1mpegan feather ornaments are
worn in the hair for full dress.
The belted Josephine corsage, the cor
set basque and the corsage with long
points back and front are all worn for
keyening toilets with low, square necks.
The favorite style of wearing che pend
ant is suspended by an inch-wide satin
ribbon around the neck, though the neck
lace and neck-chain are still worn
Mummy cloth, rough-surfaced cotton
fabrics, in all the fashionable shades for
upholstery, are all the rage at the mo-
ment for portieres and window draperies.
For street wear, under all circumstances,
very simple dress, although it be
little shabby, is preferable to one more
elaborately draped and trimmed that has
lost its freshness.
All morning toilets for the street
should be short and very dark or black.
The materials may be vigogne, cashmere,
camel's-hair, and all wooden goods, but
the trimmings may be of silk.
The furnishing houses are selling
panier bustles of dimitY and briliantine,
with steel springs in them to support
short or demi trained dancing dresses,
but the sale is as yet very limited.
The fancy of the moment in short
costumes is a skirt and jacket of seal
brown cloth, the wrap also of the same in
English coat shape, trimmed with a color,
frevers,, cuffs, ana pocket straps of fur
seal.
Musical lace pins are small bugles.
comets, flutes, clariouets, hageolets.
guitars, horns of all kinds, and sometimes
an open music book, with an enameled
bird singing on the lines of the bars of
music.
All sorts OF stones are cut in canoes
chalcedonY sardodenyx, topaz, amethyst,
odyx, agate and all sorts of translucent.
Opaque and straited stones and shells of
various kinds are used for these artistic
gems.
A pair of fox tails, of either the com
mon red, the silver, blue, gray, black or
white fox, mounted with a silver or gilt
bell top and chains, is pretty ornament
to fasten near the horses ears in sleigh
| ing weather.
Very wide bracelets are worn half way
between the elbow and wrist with the
elbow sleeves universally adopted for
TOILETS de eerensonSe this season; another
narrow gold or jeweled bracelet is some
tunes worn at the wrist.
Nacarat red and reseda are fayorite
combinations of color for full stately
evening dress. That is, the under dress
is of nacarat plush, satin, velvet or MORE,
and the over dress of resda brocaee, satin,
or gros grain, or striped silk fabric.
The costliest pendants are made with
one large jewel-a solitaire diamond,
sapphire, opal, emerald, amethyst, topaz
or cats eye--for the center, embelished
with gold traceries or small diemonds all
around, aud fine gold or jeweled fringes
or tassels.
| In cambrics, astriking novelty appears,
in that of reversible patterns-the colors
being SO stamped in, that the stuff can
be made up with either the right or the
wrong side as the outside; and in these
cambrics the colors, though not In the
figures of the patterns, differ on the right
and the wrong side.
The French prints are, indeed, ullusal-,
! ly interesting as manufactures, and un-
usally neat and tasteful in design and
coloring. English chintzes of excellent
quality and very desirable are in old
china blue, in minute designs initiative
of ostrich feathers-these in set clusters,
or confusingiy entangled.
Some of the polka-dotted and other
cambrics, of simple patterns, have striped
or lace edge in white; and this edge is
intended for trimming or bordering. For
children, these cambrics are of white
ground, called tosls d lrland, in the dots,
dashes, and other small figures, in black
and other dark colors, which distinguish
/ printed linen shifting.
As before stated, there has been q re-
appearance of percales in navy-blue,
brown, the dark neutral colors, and in
black, in patterns of polka dots in white,
Poika-dotted prints are also shown in
ground of lnyrtle-green and in rich dark
mulberry-color. There are percales in
navy-blue, brown and black, crossbar-
red in very old fashioned patterns of
white and old gold, the mingled colors
and confused figures of bourette; and re-
minders of bits of chinlz surviving in the
