The handles are of ivory carved in quaint
devices, of natural wood, bamboo or ebony
with silver heads and knobs through which
are run heavy curl chains or gigantic rings,
through which one can pass the hand; some
of them open and display miniature re-
concealed scent bottle which emits odors
of new mown hay, edenia or lily dor.
The diaphanous fabrics take the lead this
season; there is the old time Hemane and
the iron panee grenadine which had such
vogue in years gone by. A new feature is
the width, most of them being forty inches
wide. These goods are generally bordered
either in satin and bengaline stripes, in
narrow tape borders OF rich Persian bands
indicating the pattern of India shawl.
Damasse materials continue in favor, and
among those of summer weight are Pun
jiem silks in sea colors with lozenges,
sprays of flowers or polka dots in the same
color; these ale guaranteed fadeless.
Chinese crepaline is a new cotton weave;
it is mi-transparent and has ground
with bourette effect strewn with large
careless bouquets of grass and flowers in
pale colors.
Mauve and green seem to be the colors of
the season, a near shade is called orchid
mauve, and this is aubergeue. or eggplant
purple, persian, which is little lighter
than wisteria and the deeper shades of vio-
let.
Magnolia green, tilleul and stagnant water
green are among the later tints. Apricot
taureador and magnolia yellow will be
much worn as the summer wakes warmer,
with the paler primrose and gluten, the
latter verging on ecru. All the beige mode
and coachmaris shades are in the ascendent
and with costumes of these somewhat neu-
trail tints, a bonnet with a touch of gay
color Is imperative.

FASHIONS IN PARAsOLS.
Lovely and Aerial as the Wings. of q
Butterfly.

AOSoAy 0uU Aerlal aD tno Wings VA -
Butterfly.
Written for The SUNDAY INpEPENDENT.]
New YORK, April 2s.-One of the most
luxurious accessories Of the toilet is the
parasol, and this season they are as lovely
and aerial as the wings of a gorgeous but
terfy. The generality of them are of no
use whatsoever, and the name "parasol''
has quite lost its Specification, as they at
ford no grateful shade against the fierce
attacks of Old Sol. The idea of trans
parent parasol must have emanated from
woman whose eagle eyes could not be daz-
xled by the rays of the sun. Pretty they
are undoubtedly, and the fluffy back ground
of pale-hued mousseline de sole or sombre
lace is most effective setting for either
fair or bruno beauty.
The bell-shape is another idiotic innova-
ton. as there is no spread" to the parasol
and it is neither sensible nor graceful. The
canopy top of last season is decidedly passe,
and lone who knows" can readily distin-
guish between this and last seasons styles.
The Mikado shape is occasionally seen,
its almost fat surface being covered with
accordion pleated gauze crepe de chine OF
pongee silk.
A Charming one is of chantialy lace with
q lining of changeeable silk drawn up in
numerous Fuckers and nearly approaching
in color the hue of a sunset cloud. White
lace parasols are garlanded with hedge
roses, trailing arbutus, valley lilies, ETC.,
and are especially useless. as to close them
would wreck them and their frail beauty
forever.

THE MAPLE BARK LOUISE.

Its Threatened Destruction to Shade
Trees In Portions OF Ohio.
According to newspaper bulletin
just issued by c. NJ. Weed, Entomolo-
gist of the Ohio Experiment Station.
the maple bark-louse has become de-
structively numerous over large por-
ton of Ohio. and is creating much
alarm by its presence. 1t is especially
at work upon the shade trees of cities
and villages. and unless checked will do
serious injury. The presence of the
pests is shown by the occurrence upon
the twigs of maple trees, especially on
the under side, of brown, circular,
leathery scale about One-quarter of an
inch in diameter. beneath which is
fluffy. cottony mass. that at this time is
alive with hundreds Of young lice. ap-
pearing to the unaided eye as minute,
white specks moving about.
This maple bark louise is an insect be-
longing to family of peculiar habits
and histories. Under each of the scales
