the gold fever III fashions, continues I'M
abated. 1t is deplorable to see the misuse
and misapplication of really beautiful
fancy drive the use of it entirely from the
field Of fashion. When gold braid and tinsel
are tine of really fine quality and finely
applied, they are admirable. but when of
coarse quality and badly handled the effect
is disgusting. Hence many really tasteful
women will not wear tinSel at all. 1t was
noticeable that the throngs of well-dTessed,
well-bTed women, the

only an incOnspicuous part in the dress

drew together large number of the ladies
of this country who know how to order
toilets Next to tinsel, lace is the prom
lnent feature in summer styles. For the
summer season the most faStidiouS women
are ordering from the best houses dresses
made entirely Of lace, or so trimmed with
it as to produce the effect of a lace dress.
These lace dresses are black. white. all
shades of cream and ecru TO beige. and i'm
all shades of evening colorS. Dresses of
dark wooden lace are rare, but dark-colored
wooden laces, wide enough to form the en-
tire front breadth and sides of robes for
street and out-of-door costumes, are fire.
quently applied to that purpose. With
this, as with gold braid and tinsel, ii re-
quires artistic handling to create an artistic
result. Particularly is this exercise of ar
tiStic design requisite, as there is certainly
a complete departure from the long estab-
lished rules of much-draped, much-flounced,
shirred, pulled and rufiied frOck of the last
ten or fifteen years. Hamburg embroideries
over fine French nainsook, one edge with
narrow embroidery, the other as deep as
the entire width almost Of the muslin, are
sold for the skirts and trimmings for white
morning dresses, the cersages and sleeves
being of piece embroidery to match.
4 PAINTED ACTRESS
was one of the streets sights in Broadway
yesterday. Not an unusual spectacle, say
you? Ali but you are thinking of calci-
mined faces. This fair Thespian was
painted from the feet upward to the knees,
and she was not the tattooed woman from
