Princess Beatrioe,s Finest Gown.

One of the most remarkable dresses in
Princess Beatrice's trousseau is a royal tar
tan velvet woven in broad stripes of rich
dark blue and green, with crimson, gold,
blue and green silk stripes crossing it. From
the very nature of the material it must be
simply made in order to show off its beauty,
and consequently the skirt is plain and long,
with demi-train, the tiniest little plating
of sap green satin only Just showing under
meath. At the sides there are small open
ings from waist to hem, showing fat folds
of sap green satin, and edged with very
beautiful kind of fringe combining all the
colors OF the tartan mixed with gold
thread, and similar but wider fringe fin
ishes the side and center breadths OF the
dress, each strand of silk carrying on the
color of the stripe to which it is affixed.
The silk strands are diversified with strings
of small gold thread and silk balls, and the
effect is unique. The drapery is made up
at the back into something resembling
shells, which look very handsome, indeed.
The pointed corsage is perfectly plain, save
for small sap green plastron in front
reaching about halfway TO the throat, over
which is arranged a dainty fichu of soft,
white silk muslin without a morsel of lace
or embroidery of any kind. The sleeves
come just below the elbow, and are relieved
at the edge with loose fold and neat knot
of sap green satin and puff Of the same
soft muslin as the fichu.

White apparently was never so much
worn as it is tins summer. 1t is more uni
versally beconing also than black AT the
great ball at Long Branch recently two
thirds of the costumes of ladies, young and
old, we're white, or of the very light shades
For the dancing dresses, cream white, with
lace, was the favorite. Some of the very
handsomest toilets were cream white surah
or satin completely covered with lace.
Others were very pale pink or blue covered
with lace. There were not many really
bright colored dresses They were anna
rently left for the winter evening party
dress. Others were soft null trimmed
with lace and embroidery, and there were
some costumes of very fine nuns yelling.
Some of the married ladies displayed rich
cream satin dresses. with lowered fronts.
Dresses were cut low and square in the neck
in front, or V-shapsd before and behind.
Lace sleeves we're very popular. Back
dresses even upon the older ladies, we're SO
rare that when now and then one appeared
1t looked out Of place. 1t was hard and
heavy in the midst OF the cool, soft white
toilets.
Fashionable ladies have now from two to
half-a-dozen white and cream white dresses
among their summer and seaside outfits.
They are made of Victoria lawn nuns veil
ing, surah and China silk, satin, null, etc.
and woman, unless she weighs 200, rarely
looks so well in any other color as in cream
white

tank or rock by merely attaching tho tip OF

thrown upon his back. Il is amusing to
watch him do this. He twists the tip of one
ray over and catches hold Of the ground be-

the ray under till more Of the tiny fingers
get a firm grasp. The next ray is manipu-
