WHAT TO WEAR TO THE FAIR.

some Practical Advice to Women Who
Contemplate Going to Chicago.
Everybody who can is going to the
worlds fair. This is foresone conclu.
sion. AS the trip is agreat sightseeing
excursion, pure and simple, all arc dis
cussing where they will stay and what
they will carry along in the way of
clothes and other details which, if cor
rectly settled, will make the trip one Of
great comfort md pleasure. AN old
traveller, who has seen most Of the great
expositions in this country aud Europe
since the centennial, sums up her OK
perience in the best way Of being COM
Portable in q crowded city.
In the first place, unless you have
plenty Of timeto give to experiments
settle on your stopping place in Chi
cago before you leave home. Get lodg-
ings on the south side il you intend
to give all your time to the fair. Ifyou
want to enjoy the theatres and other
attractions OF the city, get quarters on
the west side,
The second piece Of advice is only I'D.
dressed to women. Do not take any
unue cessary baggage. Take only what
YOU need and the wisdom OF this advice
will be daily apparent. For a ten-day
or a fortnight's stay no more than two
dresses are absolutely necessary. The
travelling dress is the most important
OF the two, for that will be worn every
day to the fair. There is no city where
serge is as entirely appropriate as Chi
cago. The stiff breezes from Lake
Michigan every afternoon are as pence
trating as the cold gusts from the
Atlantic. A serge dress, therefore, with
an indefinite number Of silk and cotton
shirt waists and a wrap, either jacket
or cape, with q preponderance Of iavor
for the Jacket, because 1t has pockets,
makes the best travelling rig possible.
An ordinary satchel will carry one
other dress, the extra shirt waists and
the rest OF the fixings. In September
there is more chance Of being too cool
than too hot, and little heavier cloth-
ing will be comfortable. Just now 1t is
hot, but not hot enough for lawns and
organizes. 1t 10 a very rare thing to
ace a we'll dressed woman in Chicago
down town in wash dress. They keep
those dresses strictly for the house.
