FASHIONABLE FANciEs,

GArHKRED flounces are fashionable
again for rich stufis, such a. satin and
velvet.
A REVIVAL OF the Elixabethian period
are the wired paniers seen on dresses,
wired 20 - to make them stand out.
FoR embellishing house dresses the
within Of the moment is huge Vandyke
collar, falling low ut the back.

the bottom, headed by several rows Of
marrow navy blue military braid.

A PAnIsIAN suit is black brocsded
satin Of peony design, combined with red
satin, also brocaded with peonies, and
trimmed with dropping jets and black
rigid plush.
VELVET flounces are box plated, while
satin frilh are lined with contrasting
color, - chocolate with shrimp pink, or
dark blue or green with the new terra
Gotta red.
THE newest beaver bonnets have long
hanging jets all around the edge, and
they are too bewildering for anything,
particularly for the poor eyes behind
them.
The new Mother Hubbard wrappers
for ladies are most comfortable garments
when made Of soft flannel, and are very
dressy when fine camels, hair cloth or
Surah satin 10 used.
"WArrRAU" or "Dolly Warden /"
dresses are worn for afternoon walking
by some ladies. They have Q large
pulled tunic over the hips, which have
taken the name Vertugadin." These
costumes are very pretty on slim figures.
BEAVER skins are in great favor this
season for sets, and are dressed in
various ways, such as the natural brown,
the colored beavers, the silvery or
pointed beavers, and the new golden
beaver.
DOUBLE and triple collars of en-
broidered muslin are among the novelties
of the season for indoor wear. Habit
collars Of linen are worked in small
squares, are three inches deep, and
turned over straight up in the yoke OF
muslin, which IL fitted to the neck.
FUR borders for dresses are more used
than ever, and are no longer restricted
to the overdress and wrap, but are now

ones.

pearance Of polonaises. They have q
Vatican plait, both back and front il q
bow OF ribbow, which is supposed to hold

worn, or to match the matinee itself, il
Of any color.
A NEW arrangement for the back
breadths Of skirts, differing entirely
from any preceding styles, is shown ef-
fectively when two rich materials are
combined in one dress; for instance,
black satin with peony red brocaded
satin, the back breadths Of black satin
are lined with red brocade, folded into
. single great Vatican pleat, out shorter
in the middle, in point toward the top,
10 that the red lining shows in each told
of the pleat.
