and the richest materials are seen ON these, such
as velvet. plush and satin, with brocadeS that
were formerly thought only tit for a dowager.
The furnishing houses, however, ind it more
profitable 10 copy these dresses In the simpler
wool stuffS, such as Madras platd5 and ChevfOtS,
with many cashmere and chuddah dresses, and
occasionally those OF lady S cloth. The plush

smallest children, but a cape OF plush or mood

wooden dresses lett over from last winter. The
