row crepe lisse hounces, and the bottom lifted slightly in feather style with TO- settes of mauve velvet. The back of this dress is of Ophelia mauve poult de soie, which is as rich as velvet in ap- pearance. There is deep bertha of embroidered crepe lisse with fall of silk chenille fringe, very fluffy and pret- ty. There are rosettes of crepe and vel vet on the shoulders and a spray of flow CTS lies across the bust
 Berthas moro or less pronounced are seen on very many of the evening dresses, and the shoulders of the dress must be cut rather low to make them pretty, and they look very quaint and old fash toned, yet are very much more becoming than the styles lately in vogue, which made the figure look narrow.
 For street the dresses gi @e slender effect, but those for the house and par ticularly for dancing are made with very ample skirts With them and the Der tha lady's waist looks beautifully slim.
