lngly elegant for dress occasions.
A MARGUERITE guimpe in round puffs
of silk muslin and lace fills outs the half
low round neck of full-dress corsages.
THIS season the patterns and colors of
silk fabrics are repeated upon the wooden
ones, and in each case they are employed
after the same fashion.
MoNAsTIC costumes, really beautiful
in style, are still worn by many ladies of
elegant tastes. These dresses are lust
at present made Of black or gray nuns
cloth or vigogne.
THE newest head coverings are Jar
di9aieres c0peli2aes III crepe of all shades
drawn over steel wires. They have q
high crown, a small curtain and a large
br1m that shades the face; at the top is
simple bow.

costume of Glue violet Indian muslin,
embroidered with white silk, festooned
with the same and edged with lace, made
with small full paniers, violet silks stock
ings, with white clocks, and shoes with
buckles on large bow.

blue velvet, worked with blue beads of
different shades. The yoke is plated, a
lace ruche with Hubbard frill encircling
the throat. Bows of satin en- suite on
the shoulders.

there are four skirts, In steps one above

when the wearer dances. The low

trast with the skirt in color; they are cut
In a small point in front, and a postillion
basque at the back.
RIPE red or pale yellow tomatoes, and
also natural sized green cages, appeared
last summer among the very eccentric
garnitures upon French bonnets. A
novelty this season from the vegetable
world is bunch of artichokes set among
green leaves, over which is apparently
crawling a most unpleasantly natural
looking red and yellow caterpillar,
made, to be sure, of chenille and wool,
DuG LOU 10dIlSuIC III appearance TO De very
pleasing to the taste of most people.
AMONG the novelties in small wares are
a varied collection of rich colored beads
styled Venetian, which, though very
pretty III themselves, probably never
hailed from the romantic shores of the
Adriatic These little barrel-like beads
have curious figures traced upon them,
ike mixed colers combined in each neck
lace being very well adapted to ii vari-
colored costumes now so popularity worn
by young people. A single row of beads
is sufficient for necklace. These beads
are held together by tiny chains of
antique silver.
Bows of jet are now wrought in dress
materials, the most effective of these be-
ing open-work silk grenadines, with floral
designs worked in jet These handsome
fabrics make up very nicely in combina-
tion with black satin or MORE. A model
made of this beaded grenadine has a
black satin striped MORE undersk1rt,
with very wide fringed ruche around
the bottom, through the feathery center
of which glitter floral ornaments and
pendants of jet. The tunic and bodice
are fully draped with flowing jet fringes,
and about the open square neck and
upon the elbow sleeves is set smaller
fringed ruching, also frightened with
special ornaments Of jet.
