SilK-woryl green is soberly announced
as the latest tint in that shade.
Plain jerseys of red or blue are much

There is a greater variety in the styles
OF bathing suits than was ever before
displayed.
Sleeves of dresses and wraps are
worn exceedingly high, and full on the
shoulder.
The Chinese driving-cloak with sabot
sleeves has taken the place this season
of the French redingote.
Silk jerseys, gloves in strawberry red,
pale yellow, nuns gray and black will
be more in vogue this summer than kid
gloves of any sort.

the polonaise appears once and again in
varied forms and with endless styles of
drapery and garniture.
Pale yellow and bright gold are the
colors triumphant even in floral garni-
ture. The gaudy sunfower has sunk
into oblivion, but is replaced by prim-
roses, cowslips, marigolds, kingcups,
Narclssus and marshmallows.

and the creamy shade of raw silk are
the tints in yellow more favored this
season than that of old gold or copper
color, so fashionable last year; while
sage green has given way to peculiar
leaden-green known as porphyry; and
cadet blue is replaced by nemophilae-
the color of that flower.
Handsome toilets of strawberry-col-
ored ottoman silk are shown, with deep
hounces edged with wide cross-wav
bands of darkest plum-colored velvet,
the fiounces being put on with several
rows Of dropping puffs. The back
draping is a blending of the two ma
terials; the sides have panels of the vel
vet, and the graceful Ballet coat opens
over an embroidered Waistcoat, also of
the velvet.
Softly draping and semi-diaphanous
fabrics such as roste de retigieuSe, and

termed brocades, and also with MORE

Others are of chine silk or broche, edged
with marabout. There will probably be
more novelties presented before the sea-
son is over, but the fat Japanese-shaped
sunshade has quite disappeared from
good society, and is only carried over
the head of the maiden from some
sequestered district who, triumphant in
the mitigated glories of fresh color, a
brand-new gown of the largest, gayest
plaid procurable, has come to the CITY.

storm.
Mention has more than once been
made OF the extent to which beads are
worn as garniture and ornaments. Large
Roman pearls. tinted with pale mauve.
light blue, a delicate pink, and green
blending with a sheen of silver or gold,
are just now more in vogue than the
smaller beads, the former not being so
easily initiated in cheaper makes, and
their price, which is considerable, in
surfing them against becoming common.
The most expensive kinds, though sup
posed to emanate from the Holy City,
come really from France, from whence
the best limitations are imported There
is marked difference in the quality of
these representative gems, some being
scarcely disinguishable from real
pearls, and their price is proportionate.
