Pokes will be more IN vogue this fall than
ever.
Pelerines and shoulder capes remain In
| vogue.
Jackets and pelsses are the leading fall
wraps.
There is a revival of plain stuffs for
costumes.
Striped plush Is blocked into shape as
lining for the wide brims Of felt hats.
Sicilienne and Irish poplin are coming
into fashion along with other repped goods.
The fashionable linen cellar is a standing
military band with = vine Of embroidery
near the edge.
An insane Rochester girl gets out of bed
at midnight, and goes to work saving wood
In the back yard.
Mrs. Julia Moore, the "Sweet Singer of
Michigan" has boy baby. Look out for
lyrics on the safety pin and the powder
bag!
Turkish and India embroideries of soft,
dali, vet rich coloring, will trim the self
| colored cashmere and cloth dresses worn
later in the season.
New wool goods have ball figures three
inches wide, Of shade 30 nearly like that Of
snuff that the whole fabric appears to DO
plain at the first glance.
Among the newest and prettisst bouquet
holders is one made In the form of thistle
bloom, in silver and green enamel. The
shape of the flower Is we'll adapted for the
purpose the design serves TO fulfill.
The center parting Of the hair Is now
| made as inconspicuous as possible, and many
ladies obliterate 1t altogether by cross part
ings taken above the forehead, while the
greater part Of the chevelure Is combed back
, without any parting at all.
Plain linen collars and cuffs are assuredly
to be worn again, and very deep cuffs and
Charles ii. collars are preferred by many
followers of this severe fashion. They look
trim and neat, but 1t will take some time to
re-establish the custom Of wearing them after
the more neglige fashion Of wearing lace
alone.
In times past, wedding without orange
blossoms would have appeared almost rs de-
fcent of the necessary feature Of the cere-
mony as the absence of the bride herself.
The presence of the indispensable floral en-
blem Ia not In these modern days insisted
upon. Many recent brides who have been
the fortunate possessors Of diamonds have
worn these jewels as their only ornaments.
Red-haired girls may profitably read the
following description Of one Of their own
kind "a girl with red hair looked very
nice in a myrtle-green skirt, with gray and
green checked woolen stuff for overjress.
Her bonnet was of dark red straw, the brim
being covered with white beaded lace, fall
ing over white wild roses. The strings were
of dark red ribbon, and around her throat
was white gauze tie. It Is rather difficult
for q girl with red hair to manage colors
we'll, bat this was decided success"
Colored laces are quite In fashion at the
present moment, but the style Is not likely
to last. Painted laces, on the contrary, are
increasing In popularity, but a. they are
fashion will he quite lasting one. or Its
elegance there Is no doubt. Painted trim
mings of all kinds are meeting with greater
favor than ever, and many silk and satin
panels, plastron revsrs for bodces, and
larger ones for trains, are now In the course
Of preparation to wear with velvet and other
| materials.
Various reasons have been given to ac-
count for the adoption of the orange blossom
! by brides on their wedding day. None are,
however, altogether satisfactory. The Jews
| attach o significance to the custom. The
Saracens regarded 1t as an emblem of pros
perity. American women seem to annex no
particular meaning to the fashion, but simply
follow o time-honored precedent. There
seems to be no good reason why we should
not be permitted to utilize on less common
place occasions these sweet and beautiful
flowers, nor why they should be exclusively
set apart for the use of women on that
special and particular occasion, which Is not
expected and rarely desired to come more
than once in q lifetime. ......
Waistcoats grow in favor. Many Of the
dark woolen dresses being prepared for early
fall wear are enlvened by waistcoats either
real or simulated, made Of velvet, silk, or
serge. White silk waistcoats are also seen
under tweed jackets, with rundown collars
and lappels like q gentleman's coat. They
are buttoned down the front, and the great
consideration Is the buttons, which must be
jaunty and rich-looking, and in harmony
also with the color of the tweed fabric which,
If II be brown, calls for bronze or copper
buttons; or If the tweed is in heather mix.
lures, enamel buttons inlaid with different
colors--red predominating-is the proper Sc
lection. Very elegant looking promenade
costumes made of olive green and dark
myrtle green crossed with hair lines oil
cardinal or old gold, have waistcoats Of dark
green velvet, or Of royal cardinal serge
with rows of gold braid or gold braiding ir
arsbesque designs. .s. ~
In new fabrics for autumn dresses the
lowered patterns 30 fashionable during the
summer no longer appear In anything like
the majority, although they have not become
really Questionable. The cashmere de,
signs seem likely to enter into new lease
OF favor. Tiny patterns of Oriental design
in great variety of colors, the interminglina
Of which takes off any effect of gaudiness
; are to be seen In both silk and WOODEN ma
terials, as well as In fancy mixtures of both
fabrics. These are not, as rule, employed
for entire dresses, but rather for effective ap-
pliances, such as panels, scarfs, vests, revers
. and facings. On the other hand, pIaids-
not In Scotch, but In the Madras st7ie-pre-
vail In the latest goods. Here again the
colors are most harmoniously blended. Un-
certain shades of blue, with every possible
shade Of yellow or gold, deep cardinal, dull
shades Of mauve, grays and browns In Z
variety Of shades, are the favorlte mixtures,

Mrs. Gen. Lew Wallace has been permit
ted to see the greatest beauty OF Prince
Feramorz's harem In Turkey. Two wonder
fully ugly black eunuchs met The visitor at
the iron gate of a beautiful garden and con-
ducied her to large room rather barren of
furniture, but hung with fine Eastern drap-
cries. Here she found the Princes latest
acquisition, whom she thus describes In the
New York Independent: "Among the bill
lowy cushions and vaporous veilings rose the
young face. OIL what Z revelation Of
beauty uplifted In . curious, questioning

who come from the ends of the world with

poor things! The expression was that Of

In the happiest humor, ready E,r play. A
