CALICOEs FOR AUTUMN.
The prints for autumn wear are in the
dark colorS strewn with gray grounds
formerly peculiar 10 French chintz cali
Goes; they are now seen in the ineNpen-
sive shilling calicoc>, of excellent de
signs aad c~olorS, that, it is said. will
wash well. Some are provided with Il
single border, while others have a Dor
der on each selycd@c. The mummy
cloths of fine cotton that became popu-
lar during the summer are also repeated
i'm the dark Cashmere ~color>, with bright
palms and flowers strewn irregularly on
the ground, or else in stripes. Thee
dresses are not now made up i'm the
plain homely fashions that correspond
ents sometimes ask for. They have
baSqucS, o~vcr-SkirtS. and over-drcSSe>
caught up by shirred drawing-Strings
that make them easily laundried, and
are quite rs attractive for home and
morning wear rs costumes of more
costly fabrics. The only difference be-
tween these and richer dresses is that
elaborate %ruflleS, f%lounces, and laccs are
omitted from the wash dresses, and the
edges of over-SkirtS and basqueS are
either left plain and stitched in rows by
machines, or perhaps they have n gay
border set on, or ut most they have the
side plaitings that are now easily
managed by the laundreSs. The round
waists gathered into Il belt, and the
very full waists Shirred on the Shout
ders and at the waist line, are also used
for print and mummy cloth dresses.
The over-skirt is then n deep round
apron shirrcd high on each side, and the
skirt is invariably short enough to cs-
cape the ground. If il is meant that the
dress should look ~coqucttish aud fanci-
full, Il Scant frill of white Hamburg
work. or else of the colorcd cotton en-
broidery that is now so inexpensively
sold by the piece, is used to edge the
apron and the sleeves; it is sometimes
also put on As Il tiounce on the lower
skirt, and in Surplice shape on the waist.
For very plain and simple dresses the
skirts are merely hcmmcd. or else the
apron has Il bias fold stitched To the
edge 10 finish it prettily. Plain wrap
perS of mummy cloth are made with the
full front and Vatican back lately illus
trated in the Ba3ar. and are edged with
white Hamburg in open patterns like
English ncedle-work. \ cord and ta>-
sells of white or colored cotton NAV be
used around the waist. or else a wide
white belt of the white canvas used for
