Parisian 8fnts OF the Fashions for Fan
Travellers and sferrymaksrs.
October ID, perhaps, Of al the months the
best for travelling, and the custume dc
voyage is quite the order of the day. Few
ladies know how much or how lite to take
with them when they set ont travelling.
Wher you 90 to spend some weeks or
months by the sea, or in the country, Of
course yon want a goodly wardrobe; but
practical woman going abroad for q journey
of some length, but without any intention
Of visiting or going out, needs very little in
the way of dress. One serviceabIe WOODEN
costume Of dark or neutral tint, and one
plain dark silk. one light mantle and one
warm cloak, comfortable morning gown
shawl and waterproof rolled up in straps
will suffice; to these, if she is Anything OF
horsewoman, she will do well to add good
riding habit, for in many countries ii is i'm
possible to proceed wi bout riding horse
or mule travelling hat of fslt or straw is
quite sufficient to complete the costume.
The chsussure Of lady traveller requires
most particular attention; it is not enough
10 show of little foot, the thing required
is to walk with ease and comfort and 10
keep Up with ones party without incon-
venience or i'll humor, things which, un-
fortunately, too often 90 together. Travel
ing boots should be triAe larger than those
habitually worn in town, and the so!es should
come little beyond the toe, most impor-
tant item to note, for this will prevent many
a hurt against stone and rock; the heels
quite fat of course. The thick boot and
semi high shoe made in this way will prove
of excellent service For intrepid walkers
there is nothing like the thick leather shoes,
well creased. When, either for pleasure or
for health's sake, one elects to 60 and
breathe the invigorsting air Of the noun
tains, one must leave dainty shoes and
fiimsy boots at home aud consent to be
more useful than elegantly shod. in order to
gain bright eyes and rosy cheeks.
The iust-preeerve OF tussorer or alpaca,
lined with silk, and the macintosh Of india
rubber, are invaluable for travelling BY train,
but for long excursions in the mountains on
foot, on horseback, or in carriage they are
not practical garments For induring rain,
wind and dust any length of time nothing is
so good as thick, soft wooden garments, nor
is anything more healthy. The lady traveller
will also do well to provide herself with
goo6ly number OF thick leather gloves, semi,
long, and without buttons; nothing better
preseIy es the hand and wrist. The puest
elegance is always the most perfect adapta.
