isn't it? Why, think he's quite pretty"
This last remark was made in q tone
which indicated that some one had been
crying down the appearance Of the new
dog.
30, do youw rejoined Kathleen. "Of
course think him lovely. He was grand
prize dog, you know in the Paris show last
year"
Really! Why. he is black"
"Well, what color should he be, my dear
Mabelf asked Kathleen, quick to notice the
insinuation.
80, the strongest point the French poodle
can have, you know, is the mouse tinting,
like Endymion there" replied Mabel, with
the smart manner Of a cOnnOiseur.
"Well, don't believe that" exclaimed
Kathleen, sharply. ut stands to reason
that a jet-black dog would be the finest"
MOT at all. my"
Now, don't try to convince me, Mabel.
Just becau.e Your deg is liver color you
needn't
Liver color! Why. you horrid Girl, to
call my EndYmiOD liver color. I'll have
you TO know he cost three times what your
dog did, and he has taken two blue ribbons.
Black DOodies are as common in Paris as
fox-terriers are here, and they"
81 shan't listen to you. You are jealous,
and you always were jealous of everything
! have, and
jealous! I'd like to know who had a
poodle first, and then who tried to get one
like it, but mad to put up with a black
one"
II hate you!"
You are vulgar-now."
well, you are spit-ful thing, and
just won't stand here talking to you an
other minute, so there Here, Othello.
Come away from that ugly brute. Pm
sure he has heas"
The sable OthelIo would not have obeyed
his new mistress had he not been fastened
to a silver chain, for he seemed delighted TO
make the acquaintance of mOuse-colored
Endymion, aud would doubtless have fol-
lowed him to the END of the earth had not
the angry Kathleen pulled him violently
after her as she Haunted up the street. The
two girls learned afterward that the color
of their dogs did not necessarily make any
difference In the status of either as specl-
mems of the poodle breed, but after their
sharp words the disputants could not come
amicably together again. and now, when
OtheIlo struggles to pay his respects to
Endymion when the two meet on the ave-
nue., his mistress cas;igates him with a
small whip that she carries for the purpose.
The dance music bsgins again to tinkle.
and here Is an evening dress which will
figure at a Fourth of July Casino hop, and
figure, in all probability, prominently,
says O New York fashion writer. the
low bodice illustrated is of crepon of the
shade of a rose-colored rhododendron just
blown. This pink is the newest pink that
women are wearing, aud as it ha' a faint
tint Of purpe in it, it Is not a color with
which to try rash experiments, though to
people to which it is becoming it IS as
charming pink as has been shown in many
seasons. The kerchief folds form a bertha
in front o. white chiffon, which IS held by q
huge dragon fly in many~colorsd stones.
The short sleeves are also Of chiffon, and one
is differently draped from tie other. The
fan has gilt ribs and pinked out ruching
of pink chiffon. 1t is dotted at the top with
tufts Of rhododendron petals. The skirt Of
this costume is trained.
The green grass Of the park and the shad-
oWs thrown by its dancing leaves are far
better worth looking at than dresses, and
YET there have been costumes within few
days on which one may spend minute of
de crip'iOn. A young woman in q lowered
deIaine would have been summer idyl with
the white chiffon at her throat and the
green velvet ribbons about her skirt, except
that she had to use one hand and sometimes
both to hold her hat on. Hats, you see, are
worn on three hairs this summer, and when
the Zephyrs blow even with the warm play
fulness they have shown all this eek ones
headgeAr is almost certain to become disar-
ranged.
Awhile crepon dress, trimmed with bands
of tau velvet, was very pretty. So was the
cos ume of which the artist has sketched
both trout and rear views. A very pale
blue cashmere was the material, one Of the
blues you name, and then turn your head to
be quite certain il wasn't green. The
jacket, with its irregular lapels and full
square basque, was finished with q high
band, over which fell plaitings, striped with
a tinsel gallon. The cashmere blouse was
striped with cream guipure. The short
cape, carried at first on the arm and later
thrown over the shoulders, had a wide
collar and a broad collier, studded with
round cabychons in out JET. 1t was quite
full and gathered at the neck toward the
middle. The large white hat of fancy
straw was lined with pale blue drawn tulle
and trimmed with blue ostrich feathers
And the end of the new hat is not yet,
One designed this week was of fine black
chip without a crown. 1t was trimmed
with soft green chiffon, and pink-tipped
daisies with amazingly long stems we're
tucked in loosely at the back, so that they
fell forward naturally in a seml-circle A
brown rustic straw worn by brunette on
Broadway onW ednesday was most striking
1t, and it had long scarf Of green chiffon.
A crumpled bat of black legnorn was an
other of the weeks successes. 1t had fold
of nasturtium- Colored velvet arranged to
rest on the hair at one side of the front. and
bunch of light orange-tinted nasturtlums
and green leaves fixed at the back to fall
over the low, indented crown.
The midsummer capotes of tulIe and
crepe are trimmed with little humming
birds in front, lowering over twigs Of rose
leaves. One of the combinations which is
meeting with especial favor is brown and
blue, as shown, for example, in a brown
straw hat with a small fiat brim, which is
edged with narrow gold cord and trimmed
at the back of the crown with folds of sky
blue velvet. in the folds of which two black
wings are poised Mercurywlse.
It was all the fault of the prevailing
styles, says the Chicago Tribune.
The two young men stopped in front of
the counter that was piled up with negEge
shirts, carefully folded. and began an in
spection of them.
There's about what you want, Jim, "
said one, pointing to shirt with O pretty
blue stripe in it.
But Jim shook his head.
TOO much blue, he said. snow there's
one that's something like. How much is
thatg
"One-seventy," responded the dapper
youth behind the counter.
Cheap enough" said Jim. II didn't
know you could get one for less than So or

them as low as 60 cents. viii you take this
one?'
"Sure-at that price"
