New YORK, Aug. Newport is the
paradise Of the white parasol and shade
hat, and as riding, driving or yachting
are favorite amusements, ample oppor-
tunity is offered for the display of these
charming accessories. From the simple
white pongee- edged with lace or chiffon,
to the superb point lace, many interven-
ing styles are represented; prominent
among which are white Grape or crepe
de Chine parasols with Dresden or
Vienna china handles. A striking in
ter mixture of black is noticeable in the
newest Leghorns: as two or four curves
of jet ftyled "Mephisto' ornaments, set
in front among ribbon loops or black
ostrich tips with white lace or other
light trimming. Jetted quilts or black
wings are seen on coaching hats, and
fancy hraids sewed on black ribbon vel
vet, or loops of chip edged by jet passe-
menterle are very stylish. Sailor hats
are no longer stiff affairs, as crowns NAV
be OF silk, null or flowers, and black
one, worn at recent yachting party,
had crown Of yellow surah silk, with
yellow buttercups among the folds. Pink
roses formed the crown of another, and
there really seems to be no medium be-
tween a very large or very small hat.
YACHTING GAPS
Matching the costume are also very styl-
ish, and often have an embroidered an
chor in front, with two similar oaes on
the jacket revers. AT a luncheon party,
given few days ago by the Hon. Perry
Belmont, on board his yacht, The Golden
Fleece, Miss Wetmore wore dress of
white moose-cloth (resembling un-
dressed kid in appearance>, made
Elton" style, trimmed with bullion
braid white silk blouse and
sash, the ends bordered with
bullion fringe, and yachting cap to
match.
Another guest, Miss Bergman, looked
charming in a white linen duck suit in
small basket checked pattern, orna-
mented with tiny, crimson silk en-
bfoidered stars about an inch apart. 60

stitch. A crimson silk blouse and sash
with sailor hat, completed this
charming toilet. A white nainsook,
crepon or batiste dress, in very
simple style trimmed with lace, and
white moire ribbon sash tied at the
back; white canvas shoes, white elk
stockings, white chiffon parasol and
wide-brimmed chip or sailor hat in
keeping, conveys general idea of num-
berless white toilettes, suitable alike
for church, visiting, luncheon or garden
parties. Green ribbon is sometimes
substituted for white, thus losing, how
ever, the strict elegance belonging to
pure white.
INDIA NULL
Has almost entirely supplanted chiffon,
and many beautiful afternoon and even
ing dresses are OF this airy material,
made over white or colored silk; or in
some cases over tinted batiste under
skirte, gored in bell shape, the null
falling straight from the waist. The
bodice is always full, and a fchu
drapery crossed below the chest and
edged with handsome lace, is very
popular style.
Now, summers reign is at it's height,
and nature is radiant with the glow of
Flora's gems. Who does not love flow
ers? How many, unable to cultivate
them, would still wish to live in an at
mosphere charged with their fragrant
sweetness Science, which has hand
even in the simplest contrivance that
adds to the comfort of our modern life,
has solved the problem. Chemistry has
placed flower garden lin essence) with
in every ones reach. A bottle OF the
genuine Murray & Lanman's Florida
water and an ordinary atomizer
are all that is necessary to work the
charm. Spray your carpets, curtains,
clothing and bed linen with this magic
perfume, and you will be refreshed and
delighted. Mahomet was obliged to 60
to the mountain, but any of our readers
can easily bring the flower garden to her
own establishment.
