in all their natural tin Is on grounds of white
cream, pale blue, rose, pearl gray, pale buff
and black.
The new cashmeres, which are handsome
in color and very fine in texture, rival the
chevio's, diagonals, and other cloths for
day wear. Shades OF brown, blue, and red.
that are new and soft, are the most popular.
Many Of these cashmeres are combiped with
plaid, the cashmere, Of course, forming the
plated skirt. Embroidered woolens are also
popular. Later in the season satteens will
be extensively worn.
Among the novelties are "Kensington

finish the plain basque. The skirt draperies
are full but untrimmed.
VARIETIES.
Buttors are artistic in design and fnish
this season.
TIE bow OF ribbon on the side of the neck
instead of in front is fancy OF the mo-
ment,
Plain skirts, that Is, skirts without
founces, or pleatings, either perfectly plain
or trimmed only with rows of braid or over
tapping tucks are growing in favor.
Pretty overall aprons for little girls are
made of two wido breadths of neinsook or
lawn, tucked at the bottom, and shirred back
and front Of the half armhole, which is fin.
into bow on the top OF the shoulder to re-
tain the apron IN place. These aprons are
closed back and front.
Turbaps are to be much worn both down
on the forehead and back On the head like a
bonnet. They can be made OF variety Of
ateriais, straw, crepe, cloth to match the
dress, and tinssl goods. One pretty model,
with a crown of fine straw. has the brim
covered with dark green velvet. The trim
ming cops iats OF full montgre Of oak leaves
in green and brown shades. The effect is
charming
There is a perfect craze for lace this season,
and almost every dress is trimmed with il.
from the richest silk to dresses of satteen or
simple white muslin. Black beaded laces
are in high favor. and are used on black silk
dresses with entire fronts of ietted or beed
embroidered lace. Much gold tinsel is also
used in laces and both black and cream
colored laces are shown for trimming, en-
bYoidered with gold thead. Bullion laces
are novelty, made entirly Of gold. 1t must
be admitted that these have q rather theatri
cal effect. Lama lace, which has been out
OF favor for several years, has again msde its
appearance as a candidate for popular favor
and with Marquise and French lace If one OF
the m ost fashionable decorations for black
silk dresses and wraps.
