THE JERSEY LILY.
Red as a rose is she, but her complexion
is 50 delicate that the high color is a super
added charm. Large, beautiful blue eyes,
soft brown hair. caught in a low knot. and
showing a perfectly shaped, exquistely
poised head; an elegant presence, and

narrow on neck and waist; no rule but that

repetition does not tire the eye as here, a
ruching would be good choice, especially
for slender figures In themselves they are

had best remain content with the tailor fn-

redingote so trimmed has Just gone by, the
forerunner doubtless of many another.
