some liberty is allowed to individual
taste. 1t may be laid in IA double kilt,
or again it mry be finished by two mar
row pleatings overlapping each other
on the edge of the skirt. An apron
front and simple drapery at the back
complete the costume The wrap worn
with this dress may be either long
pelisse, coat made with a cape, like
a coachman's overcoat, or simple,
double breasted coat of medium lengh
The skirt of this is joined TO the waist
in the way tailors fit gentlemens frock
coats. The London hats to be worn
with these costumes are of fine felt,
made in something like Derby fashion.
| The edge'is bound like gentleman's
| hat. "A ribbon passes around the crown
and is joined together by buckle
On one side there is n cluster Of droop-
ing cocks plumes. The imported
French dresses, likewise, show the
prevalence or English taste, but the
Partisan modistes compensate for the
severity of cut and finish by adding an
abundance Of trimming. The materi-
al used is generally soutache braid,
sewn on edgewise, so that the pattern

naments in IA shade to match the color
Of the costume. The latest thing i'm

ties, locusts or other large insects to
prominent points. The animal is kill
ed with sulphuric odors and then n
thread or a piece of small wire is pass
ed horizontally through it, immediate
ly behind the connection of head and
body. In this way the animal will
last as long as the hat itself. In lin
geries the officers collar of plain linen
is most worn. lt is much more eco
nomical than crepe lisse ruchings. -
Small white tulle scarfs are twisted
around the neck and taken down the
front of the inside of the waist, like a
lichu. a rather striking novelty is to
wear plain wrap handkerchief fast
ened III between two buttonholes on
the front OF the waist. Fancy jewelry

the latest agonies is the fashion of
