FASHIONS FANCIES.

The latest vagary Of the fashionable world
\ ID the furore for paniars and punched Up dra-
peries. Many go SO far as to predict the
Incoming OF crinoline at no distant period.
but we do not believe that the reign Of bout
I fant skirts foreshadows the coming hoop, al
though 1t would seem to do 30. Almost all
dresses, short or trained, are made with
sham skirt; that Is to say, there Is fofnda-
ton on which the dress ID built up-overdress
md skirt being In one. Modistes are remodel
i Ing the overdresses Of last season by cutting
them into two pieces down the middle OF the
front breadth, and draping them panier style
On the hips. Polonaises are quite as much
worn as are basques; these, like vests, have
been banished from fashionable circles again
and again, and yet the modistes cannot do
without them; 20, as now, from time to time,
they are recalled, made up til fascinating
styles, and pronounced 'too charming"
FOR MIDSUMMER WEAR
fine white linen vests are most popular; they
i are made tight-ftting, the trimmings con
slstng Of white embroidery, or else colored
wool. Figured goods are the prevailing fancy.
There ID endless variety to be obtained At
MI Danzlger's may be seen the greatest
quantity Of pretty Madras ginghams 50 dear
hour grandmothers OF old. These make up
prettily as breakfast dresses at summer re-
sorts, and are far more unique than the
y highly colored handkerchief costumes with
their gay plaided borders. At the same es-
8 adjustment are lovely, sheer quantities of
Thte barege, now SO popular as evening
dresses for young ladies. These are to be
made up over silk, which may be either white
Or tinted, with pointed waist, paniers travers-
mg the sides, and square-cut corsage; in
every instance, the sleeve must be composed
n nee. Many-looped ribbons are placed here
h and there upon these costumes.
HOSIERY.
iery quaint and charming are the lovely
RR styles ID hosiery, the like Of which may
Oily be imagined by taking look into Mr..
aoamss pretty shop windows up on the far
AIMED Magazine street. There are lisle-
Miead hose, showing the most delicate
azafes, and pinks, and creamy tints; these
eiairly smothered In gay designs that are
mlended to show through the strapped shoes.
w palmer folk the balbrlggan hose, silk
asocKed, are marked down to exceedingly low
ugures; an excellent quality being sold at
l1y cents the pair.
