He stared on SO, "called the turn" and

several hundred dollars ahead, and they

1t has been very truly remarked that
Mrs. Stewards style Of dressing has
changed greatly since ten years ago,
when she used to congratulate herself
that she was rich enough to dress with
simplicity. Now she wears all that the
most stylish and exacting dress-maker
could demand in fabric and cut, and her
toilets are us many as a belle can boast
in her first season, At this garden party
she wore white brOcaded satin, thick
and heavy enough to stand alone, as our
grandmothers put it. 1t was 6ouuced
with deep point lace over plain satin
plaitings, and the corsage was cut with
% narrow V to fit broad collarette of
the same lace. A large cluster of white
lilacs were fastened at one side with q
diamond buckle, aud diamond buckles
were on the sleeves and saslfes OF the
overskirt. Youthful as the toilet was,
it was not unbeeoming, for like her late
husband, Mrs. Stewart looks remarka-
bly, young for her age, and her slight,
trim figure and auburn hair would do
for woman of forty.
