the fronts covered with embroidery,
which becomes more and more elab-

Elderly ladies will wear black cash
mere costumes trimmed with black
laces and frightened with red acces

Ruffs and ruches do not encircle
the neck, but are brought down low
on the bosom in front, but the throat
is not left bare.
Thick repped silk or ribbed velvet
is used for the wide collars OF chemi-
settles and fichus Of tulle, silk, null
and Auarillac lace.
Rocco jewelry is the French
fancy. 1t has garnets and tur-
quoises, with heads Of Limoge en-

Flowers are now little worn in the
corsage in demi toilet, being replaced
by knots of ribbon in hues contrast
ing with that of the dress.
The fashionable apron for little
girls is still the French yoke with full,
straight skirt. When sleeves are
added to this it may be worn as a
dress.
Black null dotted and scalloped
with red embroidery is stylish nov
city for gypsy kerchiefs that are
worn in front and back on the shout
ders.

colored fur of yellowish tinge, will
be a very fashionable fur for trim
ming winter cloaks and costumes.

color Of the dress.
The newest Mother Hubbard dresses
differ from those Of last season in be-
ing made on u foundation, and
shirred in cluster some inches above
the bottom of the dress; forming q
full tiounce at the foot. The yokes.
also. are as often laid in horizontal

with shaded flowers of velvet or. che

and old gold tints are still the shades
preferred. Wall flowers, pomegran-
ates, carnations, field peoples, with
autumn-tinted leaves and scarlet

moderate in their taste. Rae
One of the prettiest methods Of
trimming little girls costume is to
crenelate the edge OF the redin
cote over two embroidered or lace
LOUNGES, which when of other mater

dresses for girls over ten years OF age
have long jacket above a skirt,
either plated, pulled or founced. or
else half-fitting waist joined to

fashion, the juncture hidden under a
wide scarf drapery of the material.
Plush and velvet are much used for
trimmings, and great deal of face
