TO London journal In reference to the state
ment that he had proposed to Mary Ander-
son: 81 desire, In the fewest possible words,
to state that never had the pleasure Of see
ing Miss Anderson in my life, either In pub

line to her. The whole matter Is an abso-
lutte and impudent falsifcation."
Hats are Of many shapes. Little girls up
to ten years old wear the broad-brimmed
Aureole hat with flowing bow Of ribbon at
the back. Girls from ten to fifteen wear the
rather high-crowned, fat .brimmed hat, with
wing or smooth feathers, and several rows
Of velvet or silk braid round the crown.

elegant Rubens or Gainesborough, with long
curled feathers. The capote is still worn
by children, but less than last year by young
girls.

adjust closely to the figure, Wristbands will

Among late arrivals Is the mousselne de-
laine, fabric so delicate that 1t may be mis-
taken for some soft linen; finer than nuns

for the tangled vines Of morning glor:es
blue, pink or white, pale cowslips, apple and
cherry blossoms, wall flowers, polysnthus OF
golden crocuses, and many others with 70 IL
age shaded artistically, as If done by hand

The novelty for mountain, seaside and
travelling dresses is fine elastic cloth of very
light quality, woven continuously In round
breadths about two and half yards wide to
make the skirt without seams. This French
webbing Is far nicer for summer use than the
heavy English Jersey webbing, and Is row
used for the entire dress, which consists of
only two pieces, viz, the skirt with hem
and four or five tucks, above which some
simple drapery Is sewed to the belt In apron
shape, and for the second piece belted box
plated waist without lining, and having for
lis only seams those under the arms and on
the shoulders. The edges, belt, collar aud
sleeves are stitched In rows, and these dresses
are made in seal brown, navy blue and
black,--Hdrper's Bdzdr.
