SPRING MATERIALS.

belle are disturbed by visions Of piaids
and stripes. She takes home meta.
photographs Of them as they stand
piled higL in shop windows and by
night as by day; wonders which she
had better choose. Because both will
soou be the rage; Que as fashionable
as the other. Wooiers are striped or
plaided; ; silks are ditto, while a ctm-
putation of the ginghams that are 60
iug to be sold during the next six
mouths, would leave the Is puzzle
nowhere. Every size of plaid is seen :
from small checks up to large squares,
but in stripes there is manifest aver

do not appear at all, yet frequently

and crosswise of the goods, but the
latter, called as in Auld Lang Sync,
bayadere, will oftencr be placed at iii
tervals in plaitiags 90 the costume
than draped across. This at least will
be the case in wooiens where a com3i-
nation of plain material is necessity !;
80 much so that many are brought
out in double widths, half plain and
half striped or plaided. AS finish
for giughams, however, We have the
new Cash embroideries, which Gun.
ningly wrought in checks with fancy
colored edges, are the prettiest tciui-
mings imaginable. They will be im,
'ueusely popular, not only for adults
but for children, since they are beau
tifully fine in texture and fast iu color.
Cotton satires, though not put upon
the market in such overwhelming
quantities as gingbaus, will be very
fashionable. These are stamped in
small flowers closely covering the sur
face and they likewise will be trimmed
with Cash eubroideries quite as deli
cate and in as durable colorings as
those intended for gipghams. Here,
Of course, the embroideries are dc.

COSTUMES.
Overskirts are quite as fashionable
as ever-perhaps more so, now that
light wooleus and cottons are to be
made up aud one of the prettiest
among new designs is the Lotcl!a,
composed of long tablier draped in
gathers at the sides aud d rather
boufant drapery at the back. The
Imogen waist having a surplice dra-
perry on the front, shirred back ard
plated basque skirt would combine
prettily. Another novelty iu basques
is the Perdita, which is tight Ill,
ting ornamented with folds On
the front and sides aud the back
pieces separated below the waist dis
closing a face plating. The Pll.
grimage costume is now very fashion
able aud one lately made for Marie
Roye is in dark blue camei's hair.
The gored walking skirt is trimmed
with hounce arranged ir clustered
pIaits polouaise with fat Vatican
plait forms the drapery in the back OF
the skirt aud cape with collar and
lacing with cords in the back and Oh
the shoulders gives finish. Other
new Spring and Sumner costumes
are finely illustrated in Lord and lay
lor's Catalogue with price and de-
scriptions. OE course there are other
departments such as shoes, millinery,
household linen, etc., that rierit astcn-
ton and as feature introduced this
season, we find a series Of Fashion
articles giving the latest information
iu each special line. 1t is ludaed,

BONNETS AND PARASOLs.
The most essential quality Of the
new bonnet is yelloWness. White
straws are quite out Of date and black
also are in minority but all the yel-
low straws such as Tuscan, Leghorn,
Belgian or Neapoitau will be very
fashionable. AS for open work and
fancy straws, there is no end, but
these latter styles are usually in close
