dren have low crowns and brims raised
sharply at the back.
The new Marseilles blue is to take
the place of navy blue for summer
gowns of linen, serge and flannel.
There is a new blue, and it takes the
name of Marseilles, as it is the shade of
blue seen in the Marseillcs soap.
The waistcoats of men are more
dressy and obtrusive this season. The

shapely now that many ladies wear
them for dinners at home and everyday
or informal receptions.

loose dresses with short waists and
half long sleeves on big girls. The
Greenaway styles remain in highes
favor for little girls.
The latest fancy in parasols is tc
have the sections of the cover unequally
divided; that is to say, one narrow ant
one wide gore, and then the handle
must be natural wood stick.
The best Paris dressmakers send ou
dresses with plain skirts and no steels
fashioned to wear over neither bustles
nor cushions; so that ladies who rebe
against these styles are compelled tc
wear them or make their own gowns.
