of foulard, with the lower part trimmed
with two pieces of lace forming insertions,
in the center of which is foulard band.
THE SHAPE OF BoNNETS
dency to return to the small capotes in
fact, Partisan ladies have never altogether
abandoned these charming little head
dresses. A novelty in gloves are the long
"chevreau glove, with stiff cuffs, trimmed
with cachemire insertions. These gloves
are not used for day wear, but are reserved
for evening toilets. Short plush suits,
with seals jackets, are in general use
for skating purposes. Small chenille shawls
are very handsome for opera wear. They
are worn over the shoulders, and are either
white or in the colors of the toilet. Very
pretty coif'ures are made of white blonde,
One of these is made on form of stiff
white tulle. All the plaits are taken back
and fastened. The point on the right side
falls in front, and the one on the left side
is thrown over the right shoulder. A
bunch of flowers is either placed over the
shoulder or i'll the hair, near the ear.

FASHIONABLE HAIR DREssERs
Now use very little false hair. Some Ia
dies have their hair cut short and dressed
in the evening with bands or natural flow
ers artisticalIy arranged. Diamond lace
and galloon made of Jewels, which are no y
so fashionable and are sold by the yard,
like ribbon, are a great addition to these
coiffures. Some ladies patronize the "coitf-
ure la Sevigne, which is very becoming
with rich toilets, such as ''velours frappe y
and brocades with long trains. The Arch
duchess Marie Christine has planned her
own style of dressing the hair, after fash
ions of the eighteenth century. The hair
is divided in three parts. The first part
falls over the forehead in small curls, and
is surmounted by roll of hair. Back OF
this is a tuft forming kind Of crown. A
pretty couture for a young miss is to form
two bandeaus in front, and divide the re-
mainder of the hair in two parts. One OF
these parts, which is waved, falls down the
back the other is tied and fastened, form
ing loops and bows which fall very low in
the neck False bandeaus are now made
that cannot be distinguished from the natu-
raj hair, as the parts are made of very light
tulle.
