: The height to which hats and bon
nets have attained is astounding Ev-
cry week new shapes are brought out,
and excelsior seems to be the motto of
the manufacturers and milliners; for no
matter how high the crowns, the trim
mings tower still higher.
Embroideries will'be selected even
more than laces this season for trim
ming summer dresses. There are navy
blue goods embroidered in red and
white effects, cardinal grounds embroi-
dered in black aud white, and also
those that are done in olive and

American ladies are so fond of black
dresses for street wear that the most
untiring efforts have been made to Sc
cure fast black dyed hose. Success has
at last crowned this research, and those
goods known as the 'anchor dyed
may be purchased and worn with per-
feet assurance of immunity from such
vexatious discolorations.
The pretty checked and striped silks
make very cool and stylish suits for
summer. There are very pretty china
silks that are adapted to the same pur-
pose. China silks come in white and
delicate tints, both plain and embroi-
dered, ahd make most lovely dresses.
Embroidered ponges have the patterns
done in red, blue or brown on the nat
ural color. a'u l.iI.Il .Iiath .rr
a very practical novelty is the new
velvet ribbon bow attached to clasp
pin. These bows come in all the pop
ular shades, and are extremely servica-
BILE as a garniture. A lady has only to
pin and unpin them to apply them to
any toilet that may please her fancy.
They come in sets of six in box, but
are also sold singly in the retail stores.
There are several kinds, each very sty-
lish and "Frenchy.' For dressy tot
let's in light materials they are exactly
the thirg needed. ,-.r..... al ,4.,
Among the most becoming hats for
young girls wear are beige or reddish
brown straws, with light crowns and
brims slightly raised on one side and
falling on the other. The brims arc
lined with velvet or with the tissue
trimming the crown. SILK grenadlne
with velvet dots make pretty light bows
and draperies For instance a very ef
fcc,ive trimming is crushed strawberry
grenadine with garnet dots, This
serves for the lining of the brim and
for the drapery around the crown.
In low shoes for summer wear. the
Oxford tie has the preference These
ties will be worn in bronze and black
kid, and those with the low English OIL
the high heel may be chosen, accord
ing to fancy Low shoes with patent
leather vamps are also in vogue. Near
| ly all the low shoes are lined with dark
colors this season, pleasing improve
ment that will be appreciated by those
who have been annoyed at seeing the
white kid lining, hitherto in such gen
eral use, so soon soiled with the dye oi

Some new parasols and sunshades
have been brought out in changeable
silks, and in plain silks lined with
bright colors. Pompadour designs are
also very fashionable. Lace parasols
in all colors are seldom lined. Plain
or embroidered "etamine' is also EN-
ployed for this purpose. Among the
most snowy parasols is one of cream
silk worked with red chenille dots.

silk fringe. The handle is of carved
wood. A sunshade for the races is OF
