Dramatic papers state that Mrs. Langtry

FALL FASHIONS.
Leading houses have rs vet put no new
goods on sale, but inquiry IS already being
made as to the coming styles. Sample
sheets and pattern garments advanced by
Partisan houses have been privately dis
played, however, to your correspondent for
the benefit of the RECORD UNION readers.
The most important item is comparative
costs. Imported goods will be about same
rs last year, but domestic manufactures
cheaper. Wear out tailor made dresses rs
soon as possible, for new ones discard braid,
small buttons and flat effects. There will
be no buttons used on gowns but for fas-
teuing. Cloak buttons are in medallion
pattern of oxydized metals, and match a
silver dollar for size-awful big on the bills
New brocades are larger than any worn for
years, and are all Of leaves in different va
| rieties. No flowers are used no geOmetric
| designs. The fashion is too pronounced to
! last, and no lady with limited means should
buy her best in big brocades. Combinations
| of different materials and cclors will be less
| used, but increased in one goods, three col
ors being common in the same piece.
Copper is the coming color, as it

It is now considered vulgar to wear
bracelets outside of street gloves. JeweIry
OF all kinds decreases in size and increases

taste. Name pins are not genteel.
Party slippers in beaded black satin
continue favoriteS with black hose.
Newest stockings have tops that lace
oyer the knee like an old-fashioned
shoe and dispense with garters. Their toes
resemble gloves, as each toe has its own

Women who would not heed health will

AT d wedding to take place in Grace
Church during September tho bridal toilet
will be adorned with wheat in place of
orange blossoms. Three bridesmaids will
carry bouquets of wheat and autumnal-
tinted leaves. The best men will sport
boutoniers of wheat. No report is given Of
the groom's flower but an appropriate plant
would be wild oats. CAROL CRoUsg.
