A witty communication upon the presen
| styles says that there is but little difference
between the picture Of medieval saint anC
modern fashionable sinner.
Rife green of the darkest shade is a
present the fashionable Paris color for trim
ming hats and for the many flowing bow
that form the garniture of summer dresses
Byron collars Of fine needlework done OF
linen collars, with square turnover cuffs tx
match, are among the fine lingerie brough
home by ladies who have done their sum
mer shopping in Paris.
Spite of opposition, children's dresses are

The shape, however, is much concealed BY

paniers, sash and other trimmings.
A new ard extremely beautiful shade o.
golden brown promises to eclipse all Other
colors in popular favor for autumn din
ner or carriage costumes. In combination
Of COT "a 81 In, IT,
most golden hue for the satin fabric and
deeper shade for the velvet, forms a most
lsdylike and effective toilet either for the
street or the drawing-room.
New striped silken fabrics for combina-
tion dresses for the early autumn days have
wide strips of uncut velvet alternating with
stripes OF plush of the same width. These
will be used for the corsage and the stripe
will enhance the slender, long WASTED effect
now In vogue. The front OF the skirt will
be made of plain plush, and the padded
paniers and back drapery will be Of the
striped goods.
Ficelle lace strings are new on autumn
hats. Another caprice has velvet ribbon for
one string, with g bow under the chin that
seems to hold a trailing spray Of flowers
that falls from the opposite side to form the
other string. The Nimrod hat is a new
shape, with its turneGdown front covered
with tiny birds that look as II they had Just
been killed. From the summit of the crown
loops Of velvet ribbon droop down to the
edge of the brlm.
Some Of the new autumn walking COS
tunes of tweed are decidedly masculine IN
style, showing a white under-waistcoat
cutaway coat, fastened just below the chest
with one button, a standing collar with
round gold collar button, and linen cuffs
held together by large gold links of huge
cuff buttons, and, browning all, jaunty
Eaglish low crowned Derby hat, devoid of
trimming Of any sort. Many English girls
go step further than the Yankee girl dares
to, and carry slender ebony cane.
Gloves are as long as ever, and the tan
colored variety are still worn with full even
ing dress. This odd fashion Is far from the
purest or best taste, but nevertheless it is In
the height Of style, and we are aware what
violent objections and fierce criticisms may
be oveuuled By this magical assurance
Critically, however, these gloves, dark and
ugly In shade, and looking especially so
when worn In conjunction with pure white
and other delicate evening toilets, are
really neither appropriate, becoming, nor
pretty.
The new shade of royal cardinal is now
greatly used in combination with amber,
gray, dark blue, Drown, laurel green and
black. charming dress of dark blue
serge, made for seaside wear, is arranged
with double box plaits frmo the waist. These
are left loose a few Inches from the bottom,
forming g flounce, which falls over a narrow
killing of red serge. The bodice is shirred,
and worn with a belt around the waist; and
there are knots Of narrow, red ribbon at the
throat and upon the sleeves, bunch OF
rrTfd tnnnd nofn IN ha -,
buffant panniers at each side. Another
dress Of fee gray linen has box plaits at the
whole length Of the skirt, the holloWs being
OF red linen. A square plGstron, very full,
is let into the bodice; this also being of the
brighter color. A broad, gray sash pipid
with red Grapes the hips.
The new cheviots have outline designs
woven in the faded tapestry colors, and
there are many notified surfaces showing a
perfect melange of colors, while others have
a distinct shade Tor the ground, and fine
specks Of a single contrasting colors trewn
about In what is called "pepper and salt"
pattern. The soutache designs are woven
In others, and there are bold stripes like
those OF last season, with some large plaids
OF dull colors that appear to be bias across
the breadth. There is French fashion that
promises to be popular, of wearing a Jacket
OF cloth nearly covered with soutache en-
broideTy, with a plaid skirt of cheVlot or
other wool. This jacket need not match
the skirt, but 1t is often made of the same
color as that most conspicuous in the
plaid OF the skirt. Electric blue, terra Gotta,
and rife green jackets with black soutache
work are those most largely imported. These
Jackets are not made up, but are braided,
and their different pieces marked, so that
the most inexperienced seamstress can cut
out the garment,
Fancy feathers from birds other thar

fashion, as well as the birds themsel 70.
