The grenadine gauzes in vari-color, striped,
with satin bars in black, or in black with
crinkled baby ribbon bars of color, and in
wstered and figured designs, are quite
pretty enough to justify the prediction that
they will prove one Of the most popular of
the thin fabrics. Their gayety is of the
modest sort that pleases the women who are
given to sober gowns, and they are a relief
from the all-black grenadines, nets aud
laces The latter, however. will be worn
largely, their ornate designs displayed con-
spicuously over white and light silks, and
over colors.
