CoLoRs AND COMBINATIONS.

Perhaps the most fashionable color of the
season is stone color, and its kindred shade
fcelle. which is pale drab; literally, Irvine
color. In lace and all hin.materials this color
is more fashionable than white. 1t is used
over ruby, peacock blue and dark green or
olive, and also in conjunction with black 1t is

Mouse color is, moreover, so rare that it is
almost impossible to find 1t, but it is very dis
tinguished. and is used for serviceabe dresses
10 fine wool or alpaca, with facing Of ruby
satin. 1t is also highly aesthetic, and is chosen
for velvet and canton crepe gowns by those
who like long lines and dispense with the
overskirt or OVERLAPPING upon a rich fabric.
The dark subdued greens grow more and
more in favor and like black arc fashionably
combined with the new embroidered gold lace
and also with facing and Innings OF dull gold
cloth and gold satin. This lace will be likley
to have a vogue next winter upon black silk
satin and velvet suits and costumes, as it is
more effective even than embroidery. very
elegant dress recently made of thick dull
black satin, the front of the skirt capitone
with small gold balls the train plated and
perfectly plain, the long sleeves trimmed with
close epaulettes and CUTS of gold lace, and
the bodice trimmed a deep square with it,

GLOVES AND COLLARS.
The long summer gloves Of the present sea-
son are great improvement in style and finish
upon those which have preceded them The
finish is better almost equal to fine kid; the
shades OF color are good, and the styles are
more varied. Silk appears as well as Isle
thread for cool summer wear, and is pretty in
dark or very light colors. but silk gloves are
not so useful or suitable for general wear as
we'll made Isle thread in pale grey, drab,
stone and f1celle oolOrs and in the dull
maize which is the latest summer tint and es-
pecially preferred in the wrinkled wrists which
have largely superseded the elastic divisions
into unmeaning puffs.
Mitts In pale tints are lovely for fine delicate
hands, upon whose fingers gliaten pretty SOU
yenir rings; but hands do not remain pretty in
mitts-that is if they are much exposed Still
they are very suitable for 'dressy out door oc-
casions-such as fetes and garden parties,
where the hands are not employed as in play
inc croouet or lawn tennis-sports that pIay
the mischief with fine open worked mitts.
The new COLLAR for children is large and
pointed deeply in front in the King Charles
style. like those Millais repre- sents in his
princes in the Tower" It is Of linen witha
lace border knitted on. New Mother Hub
bard'' collars are made Of three rows of grad
uated lace sewn to foundation Two form
the falling collar. the third is standing ruffie
pIeated Ia triple folds.
An English dust cloak is Of stone coiored mo-
hair, with full rather short sleeves. 1t is
trimmed with nat loops of satin ribbon Of the
same color around neck and wrists. It is more
DIRE sy looking than the ordinary dust cloak
and very becoming to slender figures.
