As lace dresses are now made OF thu
cheapest material thay are losing ground
among the best-dressed people.
Dainty screen fans are now made OF
artificial flowers upon wired frame,
the whole covered with white, filny
tulle.
Transparent materials and light colors
are the rule in evening toilets. Rose

tints.

A stylish foulard costume in
i'm pale terra Gotta, with black tracery

Gently been brought out. IL is of the

combinations OF browns and reds for
dress goods is becoming moro marked.
These colors are very pretty In some
costumes and a woman OF stauesque
figure and fine complexion can wear
them we'll. They are very trying to

and tho esthcso who introduced them
may find some trouble in making them
popular.
