Predictions of the Coming styles In
WOODEN Gowns and Wraps.
While it is entirely too early to pre-
dict many of the fall fashions as yet,
one or two ideas have been whispered
to us. The soft English camel's hair,
SO beautiful in texture and covered
closely with long hairs, will be one OF
the leading fabrics and will be seen in
the soft shades Of gray and tans; also in
the shades Of helietrope. Entire gowns
will be made OF this material, hand
some buttons and stitching being the
only trimming. Jackets will be of the
same material, matching the gown.
handsomely lined and trimmed in
fur. Another fabric which will be
much worn will be the homespun, the
surface being rougher than ever before.
the rough surface material now being
in high favor. These will DO made
tailor-fashion, and take, to q great ex-
tent, the place Of broadcloths For aft
ernoon reception and tea gowns OF white
homespun and cancels hair will be
much worn: these will be trimmed in
fur or dark velvets, and will be worn
with hats OF dark color, though some
few will wear the white felts. A very
beautiful camcl's hair was of delicate
tan with brown raised stripes, and thick
ly covered with dark-brown hairs of
good length. This was made very
severe on the redingote style, being
trimmed with oxydized buttons Of
sterling silver. representing old coins,
and old silver clasps held the draperiss
in place. The foundation skirt was OF
brown silk. bound with dcep binding
OF velvet on the bottom, which showed
just the least bit. The hat was q beau
