FEMALE FANCIEs.

y COACHING SE0SnaQeS are more BUD
stantial and less gaudy. than they were,
but come just as high.
SMALL, not to say tiny, diamonds are
now the correct thing among ladies who
are supposed to set fashions.
THE mourning bonnet of the period is
as expensive as one that represents a
light heart and taste for gayety.
CONSERVATIVE swellsdo not take kind
ly to the new spring silk hat, which re-
calls the headgear of the ssport. )"
WASHING ones face in water in which
oatmeal has soaked is now recommended
to ladies whose highest ambition is q
beautiful complexion.
AMONG champagne pitchers the best
are those with q distinct compartment
for the ice. In these the wine is cooled
but not adulterated in the least.
New spring bonnets are certainly very
beautiful, but it would interest horti-
culturists to know where the flowers
grow that are represented on some of
Them.
PUFFED sleeves are going out of fash
ion with John GiIpin rapidly. They
made most women look deformed, and
when this was discovered the fashion
was doomed.
Four diamonds in row on bar of
gold is the swellist thing just now for
ladies. At least, this is what the fash.
ionable jewelers. say, and it is their
brilliant business to know all about it.
Mrs. j. w. MAcKAY's much. described
dress OF white velvet covered with rob-
ms breasts is entitled to the modiste's
first prize. If this is not available, it
should certainly take the cake.
HARLEQUIN costumes are among the
prominent sensations of the spring
They are made of five or six different
materials, but of colors and patterns
to "harmonize in the most effective
way"
JUMBO salt-cellars are something new.
They are of silver, larger than the owl
pattern, and the salt comes out of the
elephants trunk. In the grocery stores
table salt always comes out OF box.
TRAVELLING bags of leopard skin with
solid silver mounting, and silver initials
on the sides, are the latest. 1t is
thought they will be most appreciated
by young gentlemen who do not object

TINTED glasses for white wines just
imported are. very dainty and beautiful.
The old-fashioned shape is retained, but
the quality of the glass is finer and the
hues and colors exceedingly train. bow

NoBoDY puts ssR. S. V. P" on invita-
tions any more. The style or custom is
obsolete now, and when in these modern
fashionable days the initials are seen,
Mrs. Grundy will exclaim country" or
common"
THIS seasons ribbons are magnificent.
The quality is remarkably fine, the
colors beautiful and the combinations
different shades on either side-ssjust
too lovely for anything" to quote those
for whom they are intended.
WHITE gauntlet kid gloves for ssdress
occasions," as the Advertisement says,
have punches OF flowers embroidered on
that part Of the glove that lies between
the wrist and elbow. The flowers are
evidently OF the kind that grew in Eden.
The increased favor with which the
fashionable young lady Of the period re-
CARDS pedestr1anlsm may account for
the fact that French heels are not much
seen nowadays. Probably those who
mourn most are physicians who make a
specially of spinal trouble.
BRAID used to be considered good
enough for binding skirts, but at re.
ception the other evening, lady pres
ent wore a black silk dress bound with
gold bullion. Everybody said it is worth
more than $40 yard and that she used
to take in washing and her husband
worked in mill.
LADIES travelling hats are very stylish,
not to say jaunty, and are more Paris
than London. Those imported by the
leading matters, nearly all of whom now
deal in feminine headgear, and are dis
played in the shop window, are beauti-
ful to look at, but expensive to pur-
chase. But, of course, they sell, for
Miss Flora McFlimsy cannot live by in
spection alone. -.s
