The latest gold bracelets are very

Cascades OF narrow ribbon - well
- cascades Of Breton lace ars very fash-
ionable on underclothing.
-Gauze scarfs trimmed with velve.
are among the light wraPpingS A.
nounced for the summer.
-Grenadine dresses are particularly
pretty made with pAniers; II drspes In
such soft folds that in this goods they
can be made graceful and becoming
even to q stout figure.
The lace mitts in al colon, and the
Isle thread gloves in mode shades OF
gray, stone and draP, take the place OF
kids for summer wear.
The new Pinafore costumes have
little n~eckerchiefs Of Swiss muslin, Gov.
cred with Breton lace dotted about here,
there, and everywhere, that q bow can
be placed.
Black velvet bands are again worn
At the throa. and on the Arm, and are
very pretty with dresses cut low Al the
neck and with the short elbow sleeves
Suits of white bunting are trimmed
with bright plaid and twist Of cardinal
and old -colored ribbon. Muslin
shirrings, divided by insertions Of Swiss
embroidery, are used for deep collars
on these and other summer costumes.
-Changeable ribbons are the novelty
in millinery. These arc shown in blue
with gold, green with cream-color and
pink with blue. The bows worn with
organizes or foulArds should contain all
the tints found In the flowers Of the ma
terial.
MANY Of the short wooden suits for
the street, have the whole skirt CON-
posed Of kilt plaitings; the overskirt Is
of the shawl shape and looped 70 as to
show the underskirt. These are becOm-
ing to but few, besides being excessive
ly warm.
Walking jackets for the street are
made OF what are called Indian fabrics,
that is, goods Of the mastic and CHINA
mon shades, embroidered by hand in .
palm pattern. Some Of the close fitting
jackets terminate in q long swallow tail.
Every one, in these days Of cheap
cambrics. should try TO possess ct least
q single dress, for indoor wear, Of fOu.
lara finished cambria in pretty colors,
and softened by ruffles Of inexpensive
lace at the throat and wrists.
"A fact which many ladies are not
aware of is that the striped MORE 30
much used in combination with other
handsome materials, IL very ~perishable.
The mOire stripe is pressed in with . bot
cylinder, which makes tho threads very
brittle, 50 that the slightest strain breaks
them.
-Sashes are fashionable again, and
wide ribbons are in demand. Brocaded
and watered ribbons matching the dress,
and others striped in Roman, Scotch
and Pompadour colors are used. Belts
are fastened around the waist and hang
down in one long fat loop and two
longer ends.
Hats are of various and handsome
shapes. Some are low crowned and have
broad or eccentric brims. Those of
rough straw braid, in mixed colors, are
in great favor. The trimming usually
corresponds in color with the most
striking color in the braid, with the ad.
dition OF an an ostrich tip or . birds
wing.
-Parasols are gsyly conspicuous,
and it is necessary that they harmonic
with the costume OF they appear too
gay. Many of them are embroidered,
gold thread being freely used. Shaded
parasols, shaded from pale pink to dark
rose, old gold in its various tints, fswn
shading to brown, and the gamut in
blue are shown:
Lamps are in fashion and also are
candles revived. Pretty shades for Ar
gand lamps are made of the Japanese
paper parasols. Break all the thin
wooden ribs of, extract the handle and
cut the top to fit the lamp shade of por-
~celain, and you will have q lovely,
bright-colored shade which softens the
light only comfortably. These can be
bought at almost any fancy store for
five or ten cents.
-Tatting is again coming into fash
ionable use. 1t Is used for parasol Gov
srs, collars, cuffs and ends OF muslin
neckties. 1t revives an almost forgot
ten industry, and once more will be
seen the flying shuttles in the busy
hands of women. One of the most
prominent young men Of this State
.(Michigan) once supported himself and
bis mothers family by making yards
and yards Of this fairy-ike work while
confined to his bed by an accident.
-Prettiest among buntings il the
cashmere finished goods, soft and light,
much like India cashmere, only lighter.
These are made up in combination with
silk, and form effective and comfortable
summer suits. A blue bunting il trim
med with striped blue and white Fou-
lard, and . cream colored one with red
and white Pekin-the trimming put on
in straight bands. Foulards are very
popular. They come in polka dots, in
stripes and in dainty Pompadour designs
Is well a. in tho dAmas0es and tWills
with which M usually associates them;
in light colors they are liked for evening
dresses.
