WATERING PLACE COSTUMES.
| IT'S not SO much what is as what is 10 be.
June weddings are about over. The dusty
city is becoming contemplate and We look
| for what will be worn at the watering places.
Morning dresses are of gingham in fine quail
ties which are really more genteel than finery
at an early hour of the day and simply made,
are easily laundried. Then there is perennial
white, chiefly null or naipsook, and the fav-
orite finish is embroidery that frequently is
| in four wide fiounces forming the skirt, being
met by flounce to match on the half tight
or belted in cOrsage. Basques Of small
| figured cretoDne arc also prepared for morn
ing outfits and give completion TO dark or
black silk or satin skirts. This is a very
tasteful and inexpensive fancy. Dainty after
| noon and evening costumes are made Ut fine
cashmere in pale pink. blue, ivory white, or
| red, or colOred cashmere basque serves to
| complete with gayety a dark skirt. The
| Surah toilettes are noteworthy, because thin
and light in texture, but the colored are often
dark such as deep garnet, olive or forest green,
blue or brown. These Surahs are too Weld
| ing to hold well together If alone, so dress
makers are fain to give firmness by founda-
| ton of silesia or alpaca for the skirt. AS To
| ways of making, for woods and silky stufis
| the changes are rung on the curi1sSS cOrSage,
| which shows off the figure to such advantage
aud with minor variations, this leading idea
| is kept in view. Never was the corset, there.
fore, of greater importance, and doubtless for
that reason the new double hip novelty corset
| is part of watering place outfits. The bones
of this beautifully fitting corset are arranged
diagonally in the front and back, by which
improvement stability, strength, and symmetry
are given. Perfect freedom of movement re-
suits because it is 60 p1iable, while from that
| very reason it is extremely durable since it
yields without breaking. | really wish you
would make trial of it and to this end would
suggest that you enclose ST so to the Novelty

LITTLE RED BIRDS.
And cunning little red birds they are. Not
| only red, but blue birds, brown birds, any
| thing but the white clad little innocents of
yore. tbs OF children | write and it only re-
| mains for them to become brick dust little
| birds, or in polite language, dressed mp in
terra Gotta, which doubtless they will be by
| the time this reaches you. "Terra Gotta"
| an exceeding flavor of brown or brown equal
| ly seasoned with red; put it either way, for
| both are correct. In several sha deS it is
about to become popular rage; appearing
| not only IN woods and silky goods-chic1y
the former-but in accessories, such as gloves,
| ribbons, etc. Nothing sanctions it save q dash
Of eCcentrcity; and that longing for something
different which is Inherent in human nature.
Ladies look queer enough in these ontflts of
| terra Gotta wool made without combination
Tailor finish, tight sleeves, terra Gotta gloves
prolonged to the elbow and hat to match.
But to return to my text. The hats worn by
| children with their jaunty wool or silk out
fits are very broad brimmed straws tied with
ribbon and dyed correspOndingly, in red,
| garnet, blue, brown or green. Stockings
| ditto. For
| GROWN PEOPLES HATS
or b0nnets, velvet is now established as fash
ionable. Greatly So both on the formidable
sized and llaring hats and on the very small
capotes that are more extensively worn than
ever. Smaller than ever oftentimes and dis
played by younger ladies than formerly, who
sometimes perch them on the back
of their heads when resting on the
careless knot or braid Of hair and without
| strings, they are really no bOnnets at all, if
we understand by bonnet covering for the
head. The bundle OF flowers on one side is as
| big as the hat, while velvet bow in front
constitutes the trimmings. Innings of velvet
under broad brims is fashionable, large bows
| OF velvet are combined with ostrich feathers
or flowers and velvet ribbon in millinery is
restored to a pristine dignity. For garden
| parties and lawn tennis, the broad brimmed
hat is indispensable, at least for the young
| people, who take part in popular pastimes.
| AS 10 the costume, devise it as fancifulIy as
you please and on this head, at least, you can
scarce eXaggerate. | am writing at this mo-
ment of course TO the young people. Cash
| mere or flannel are in high favor, made CO.
quettishly, but with loose comfortable
waist, allowing free use of the arms. Red
| cashmere is ever so pretty when worn by the
right young lady; broad brimmed red hat
| can be supplemented, while the tennis apron
OF white Holland, linnen or canvas serves to
| tone down too peryading redness. Trim
your apron prettily but inexpensively, and as
a sample | can mention one reaching quite
| long in front and back, made with low necked
waist and arm holes, open in the back and
tied with ribbon bow. 1t is finished with
an embroidered rnflle and has deep shirred
pocket in front. Cheese cloth rcappears for
tennis dresses, and jaunty imported outfits are
| trimmed with figures cut from cretonnc and
| sewed down in applique style, psrasol to
| match. Canvas, too, is brought out ready
| made aud similarly beiutfied But with toll.
| cradle ingenuity any young lady can make
| such costume for herself and spend but lit
.
WHAT SHALL SHE DO Whit?
That troublesome little thing, the hand
| kerchief. Troublesome, because literally at
| present, without place or position.
No pocket, no anywhere for it, unless you
call the uncertain interval between two but
| tons above the waist line of the corsage a
somewhere. There it smay peep out ready to
fall and be lost. Yet If lost, lost in a good
cause. Should it fall you know you have
tried to be fashionable; should 1t stay in you
know you are fashionable. This gives the key
| TO the boxes on boxes of small, ornamental
| edged haudkerchiefs that one sees in leading
stores. For, in view of no foundation to rest
on, the handkerchief must be small, while,
in view of the fact that il is especially in
view of ones beau or ones dear, critical lady
| friends, one cannot show too much taste in
| choosing. Whether the colored border sh Ill
be dotted or spotted or striped or plaided or
| Powered, or combinations of all or any. For
the streets Que is permitted to carry a bag in
ones hand mot on the army, and the handker-
chief may peer from an outer pocket, or be
hidden within, according to whether you
| want to show it or hide 1T. Then, too, it
might repOse in an unlawful and much to be
ashamed of dress pocket, hidden away as care
fully as some people here would hide their
| acknowledged or spoken of. At watering
places the work blsket would be convenient
