Our ladies should adopt the economical
features of foreign dress making. Trains
are partly discarded because the expense
is lessened considerably; thus ladies have
more dresses than formerly, as they cost

counterpart made up in cotton, and In all

used.

hibited at an uptown house IN New York

tiusel, the silk itself being Of the richest
quality.

nettes. Adorned with lace or pearl-beaded
passementerie and fringe, 1t Is one Of the

ated fullness to the lower edge OF the
bodice, while they open fan-wise to form
