the loose greeian draperies, and edging
them appropriately.
A glance at the published lists of mar
riage will suffice to emphasize the asser-
ton that wedding dresses are i'll demand.
One of the most charming material for a
bride of ''swell affair." is white faille
with long directoire coat, the satin-lined
tails falling deep over the train. The
vest should be of bFocaded silver and
large silver buttons ornament the coat.
From the bridal to the home is not a
very. long step if one is well shod, and the
feet of our beauties are receiving full at
tention. Dainty white stockings are be-
ing seen under charity lifted skirts. They
are of finest white silk, simply worked
a reaction from the bizarre effects in
hosiery that seem to belong properly to
the demi- monde. Still ladies for service
and convenience wear black silk, while
in cashmere ambers are seen vertically
striped III narrow lines of
yellow and green. In the house
the shapely foot is thrust
into that most comfortable device a
Suede kid slipper, some of these after
the Chinese model of pointed toes. In
company with these, many fashionable
young women still elect for the Garibaldi
blouse, and wear it, greatly modified +,
instead of the cashmere breakfast saeque
Still more dressy house bOdices are of
scarlet surah, these designed to appear
loose and easy, and having that appear
ance on account of the dropping fronts
They are, however, on fitted Innings with
darts and side forms.
When the lassie puts her low shoes
laced with golden cords, embroidered
with gold, and tiny Louis Quinze heel
just tapping the waXed floor, she wears
a Spangled tull or some other equally
gossamery fabric with marrow border of
fur, that is if she goes in for the eceen-
tric III fashion rather than the beautiful 4.
The prettier trimming is perfect shower
of narrow ribbons, which are fastened I'M
der the arms brought down one after the
other, an inch and half apart and tied
careleSsly in long swinging loops that
nearly cover the upper portion of the
skirt Upon dainty dancing toilets,
scarfs of tulle or ,spangled and hand
painted silk bOlting-cloth are likewise
arranged, but i'll this instance there are
only two searfs instead of six or eight
ribbons.
DRESSES FoR,THE LITTLE FOLK.
In children s dresses the changes are
rung on the plain full style, so universally
adopted. A pretty little frock in reseda
cashmere seen recently was cut TO show q
small round yoke of vieux rose nun 5
yelling closely tucked. Tucks also ap-
peared on the sleeves, between shoulder
and elbow puffs, and on the little skirt
where they were set in bands of five or
seven together. The collar, cuffs,
sash and band INTO which
the frock was set, were embroidered
i'll pink silk. A charming little
cloak was miniature copy of the double
shape so fashionable at present, with its
long straight fronts. The material was
brown cloth, with n dark blue stripe,
family outlined with red gray aud fawn :.
The hood was lined with dark blue silk 4,
and the gathered back WAS held in place
by pointed. band. The pockets in the
under part would doubtless prove great
attraction TO the small wearer
For quite tiny children there were pei
isses in soft creamy lambs wool, some
with the eapes cut in deep tabs and edged
with a trimming OF small poTnpons; Others
with bands OF fluffy fleece, delightfully."-
warm and baby like The diminutive
skirts are set in bIg plaits into the short
wasted booices.
