THE LACE JACKET.
Very Popular and Fashionable Gar
ment for Warm Weather.

A Very Popular and Fashionable GAR
ment for Warm Weather.
Lace is the material par excellence,
both as a garniture and a fabric of the
season. AS was the case with the jack
ct in the early spring, lace was unre-
servedly declared against by the wise
acres of fashion. But popular favor,
which reserves to itself the largest lib
erty of choice, set at naught these dec
larations, and we have the lace jacket
leading all other street garments. 1t
is seen in all sorts of styles, both plain
and fanciful, and is not only used as a
wrap, but over bodice of light mate
rial as part of house costume. A bod
ice cut low or partially low about the
neck is transformed by lace jacket
into high-necked gown.
Not only are multi-patterned laces
the vogue, but the combining of various
kinds of lace in one garment is
very popular. The regular jacket
back and the sides are Of heavy
lace with vermicelli cording on it's sur.
face. Over the plain vest front is full
plating of Chantilly lace. The full
bishop sleeves are also of Chantilly
lace and are finished at the hand with a
lace frill About the neck is a full
plating of the same lace in the form OF
a Medici collar. Down the front and
on the sleeves are bows Of black velvet
ribbon. When this jacket is to be worn
as part of costume velvet bows the
same shade as the predominating color
of the gown are used instead of black.

The Progressive Women.

The modern woman is nothing If not
progressive, and she understands the
effect of light and shade much better
than the woman of twenty years ago
Dress was not then as it is nova cult,
and few women knew anything about
It The woman of to-day is nothing if
not aesthetic; she has abjured 1.-The silks
that stand alone" SO much vaunted by
our grandmothers, and in their stead
she drapes herself in clinging crepe de
japon, dreamy Indian silk and the
poetic chuddahs that are scarcely less
beautiful than they. She has studied
the law of cause and effect; she knows
that the juxtaposition of certain colors
produces a discord and that the mar.
riage of others makes a lovely harmony.
She has discarded the old color preju
dices of her youth and disdains the law
which relegates external blue to the
blonde and yellow to the brunette. N.
