SHIPS OF STYLE.

autumn.
SILVER rings studded with turquoise
are very stylish.
THERE is less and less of hustle in the
world of fashion.
DIREcroIRE gowns and bonnets are
very becoming to tall, stately women.
A NOVELTY in underwear is the skirt
of striped white lawn woven TO initiate
drawn work.
Four lustrous hematites set in claws
on a knlie-edge make an attractive
brooch for half mourning.
THE fashion of setting solitaire dla-
monds for rings in a slightly followed
field of black onyx, so prevalent twenty
years ago, is Just now re gIved, and is
the height of style.
INDIA Pongee grows more and more
the rage, and is used inditferenty for
gowns, hats, wraps or blouses, which
are usually trimmed with a sharply con-
trasting darker hue.
VERY new grenadines have bars OF gay
plaid almost hiding there black ground,
while others show thick alternate
stripes of green, gray, blue or tan upon
a black or cream ground.
GIRLS at Bar Rarbor are wearing with
their white flannel blouses solid silver
belts, to which are hung bonbonieres,
fans, mirrors. glove hooks and powder
boxes, all of repousse silver.
MANY of the latest toilets for brides
maids are quaint and oldfsshiOned in
effect, and many toilets OF this descrip-
ton made by London mOdistes are
modelled alter dresses popular IN the
sixteenth century.
RosE-wHITE is not, as one might fancy,
of piLkish cast, but that exquisite
shining translucent tint shown in the
petals of white tea rose, with which
nothing goes so well as the pure yellow
Of its own stamens.
The rage for green extends even to
the lining of new mantles-only be sure
it is a dull greenland if you cannot
abide that tint try somewhat fade
pink. but venture on no brlght hue II
you would be accounted stylish.
DARK green rough straw hats faced
with shirring of dark green net, and
trimmed with dropping pink gladioG
and grasses, are pretty for either morn
ing or afternoon wear IN the country
during the autumn. Tuscan hats III
Directoirc style have their ample brlms
faced with black or dark-coIored velvet,
and are garnished outside with wTeaths
of pale green hops and crimson and yell
low nasturtium blossoms, or with chap
lets or unripe hazel nuts and foliage.
A DUsT-CLOAK is almost indispensable
if one would keep the dress fresh when
driving or travelling. 1t is a poor in
vestment TO purchase a dust-clOak of
cheap alpaca, with the ruche pinked
at the edges. The latter is sure to fray
and soon look very shabby. 1t is lar
better 10 purchase one of best quality,
simply hemmed all around. A nuns
cloak, Portia pelisse, Irish peasant
cloak, or whatever the title may be to
dust-cloak, or however smart and stylish
IN effect, is not suitable or street wear,
though many women appear upon the
promenade enYeloped in them. Their
use is as special and particular as rid
ing habit, or should be at least. A plain
ly made camel l's-hair, surah, alpaca, or
English serge dust-cloak is convenient
ly carried over the arm at any time Tor
a Journey, however long. 1t is also
easily packed; it Is light in weight and
DOES not easily crumple. \ fussy, over
| trimmed dust-cloak, with tags and rib
bons flying, is a nuisance, and is not at
all in keeping with the uses for which 1t
was designed.
THE ld-fashioned bell-shaped sleeve
is revived with the short French en-
brcidered under sleeve which was a
feature of dress many years ago. The
bel-shaped sleeves when they became
exaggerated as pictures show, ne' essi-
tated the very large pEt sleeve with
band as finish. 4 tendency to revive
a small puff sleeve at the edge Of the
rather short coat sleeve Is now apparent.
There are also half-open elbow sleeves
with dainty little sleeve of silk, en-
broidered French muslin, or silk net,
made in bishop style and gathered into
a narrow band of the same delicate
material. There are also slightly open
coat sleeves cut up at the back or front
seam, or both to admit pleated frill
Of rich lace. This style is said to make
the hand look smaller than any other
of the new models, which are legion.
Another sleeve, on an imported gown
designed for cool-weather wear, Is made
of striped camel's-bair, in damask, rose
and dove color The striped sleeve
opens 10 admit Il finely shIrred puff
sleeve of plain damask camePs-hair,
and upon another gown OF olive and
cardinal stripe there is a puff sleeve OF
plain cardinal surah.
