A lot of new photographs every month
gives more news Of celebrities than the
paners. The time will come when our
newspapers will be one-half photographs
and half of the rest monograph. Mod
jeska has taken TO wearing the raklsh
recanier gown, and parts her hair on one
side not to advantage. She can t heip
looking well, whatever she attempts, but
the sprigged gown corsetless, with neck
and bust ans evidence, are too maternal
and suggestive of a nursing baby in the
BACKGROUND to appear in society. To
tel the truth, that dress looks like
the mischief on nine-tenths the
women who wear it, on any of them in
deed not thin as a wasp. The side
parted hair always is a sign of charac-
ter given to intrigue, and does not suit
the distinction of Modjeska' 8 original
style. If had a girl to bring up, two
faults in dressing she should never COM
nit, namely, to wear a decollette bodice
or part her hair on the side. 1t has
fast and loose look that is an invitation
to mischief in itself.

fall offer new combinations in color,
black and pink, the serviceable old PINK,
to be as fashionable as the green and
black last spring, iron gray and lemon,
especially in autumn harmony, with
peach and ecru for gorgeous toilets OF
sunny September matinees, when color

indoors or out, white, brown and gold

stance, gowns of light brown cashmere
or wool canvas, with fronts of white
laine lightly embroidered in gold and
brown. bonnet of white laine crown,
straw lace front and fancy brown rib
bon, Striped black silk will take the
place of noire for dresses and panels,
rich cord stripes and satin stripes coming
especially for the latter. Rush hats and
fancy colored straws which look as If
woven with dried grass, dyed green or
red, are most stylish for late summer,
and the choice for trimming, beg to
add, is not 'grass, poppies and field
flowers, - but garlands of ivy, seeding
grasses and hedge berries, or gauze
scarfs the or of the hat and dress,
with sharp wings aocentlng the folds.
