The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1890-06-29

Dora Wheeler, who we hope is not los
to art, though she has committed matri
mony, keeps herself supplied with TIM
handkerchiefs of the flmiest white cambria
which are powdered over with the mos
charming little flowers in natural colors
worked after tho Associated Artists DESIGNS
With her fresh gingham frocks for summer
she uses fine squares of lilac cambria OF
handkerchiefs in pale pink or mauye. These
are embroideried in fax thread, some
times in white and sometimes il
colors. One rather eccentric youne
woman who will have millionl
whom she marries contents hersel
with nothing less diaphanous for wear witt
her evening costumes than handkerchiefs o.
butter colored mousseline de Sole For da,
use when choosing spot for her monogram
she doesn't favor either the middle Of hel
mouchoir or its corner, but has little loz.

the border and on this is worked the highly
ariatocratic lettering.
1t takes no END OF grace and courage to
manage the huge square of white linen af-
fected by the bachelor girl when she steps
forth in her stiff shirt bosom. The tenth
girl shakes one out with neat little flourish
that is all piquancy; the other nine impress
the sympathetic beholder with the notion
that they went by accident to a big brother,
bureau drawer.
Some charming novelties in gloves from
Paris have appeared. They have about
them the air Of the boulevard. Some are
mauve-colored, some rose, some pale green,
faint yellow, suggestive blue. They are
marvelously dainty and extremely unfit fol
the purpose to which the unthinking put
them, t0-wit, street wear.
A pretty girl wore white suede gloves in
the park yesterday with white frock.

why, haven't they been adopting Isa-
bella Beeeher llooker's suggestion and
fitting out the city with police Women?"
May the scoffer prevail, for the woman
who will wear white gloves should have
answered "Yes, when the census enumera-
tor queried, "Are you an idlot?''
At little dance at the opening of a fine
old country house the other evening noted
as we'll as was able for the heat that some
OF the pressiest girls present were wearing
with their white and gauzy costumes, black
mark me. black-kid gloves SO long that
it funny how the glove makers continue
always to get in the same average quantity
of material? Now that we are wearing
long sleeves with demi-toilet, we cut down
one set of gloves to one or two buttons only
to piece on the extra kid when we come
to another set appropriated to full
dress. that is, to bare necks with no sleeves
at all.
Miss Bertha Robinson, the tennis cham
pion, tells me that the newest gloves for the
country are also the best that she has ever
seen. The kid has Russian finish which
prevents it from cracking or stiffening after
mic thunder showers without damage for a
whole season. Widely removed from
thoughts of such homely utilities are the
latest evening gloves, which are of pale
fawn, cafe au fait, mushroom, a delicate
