There was q gathering Of artists and
musicians the orher evening, and rather

dress was not the rule, but great lib

fantasy OF drapery, however, | passed
unheeded, for was on search for

front was cluster OF three pink buds;
then uneven clusters a. the side were
connected with the front by satin bands.

scarf in white that was wound fantas-
tlcally abeut her head, Arabian fashion,
and then allowed TO fall In full folds
about the front OF her bodice. just q
few curls escaped over forehead.
Still another was almost demure.
Her GROWING glory was arranged 10
eng, narrow plait at the loop. AT the
right side was delicate spray OF white
flowers.
But the latest style for the daytime
Is again at the nape Of the neck. Wa
have caught our hair up for so long 4
time that it will be diffic IL 70 get back
to the neck, particularly with such an
ARRANGEMENT as the present one. For

recall that this time last year We were
threatened with crinoline, and these
idle rumors disturbed our equanimlty
not one whit.
But enough OF treSSes. Lee us to our
gowns. Overskirt is the cry OF tho
times double skirt or redingotc style,
cut open In front over another skirt.
And the fall openings also show the
gowns made after this fashion. But,
strange 10 relate, IL Is only In fashion
papers and In openings that We see
much OF this departure. Few gowns
are yet made after the new cut. There
IS q slight halt In the buzz OF dress de-
signing, while womanhood makes up lts
mind. Is the oyerskirt worthy OF
adoption? Does II promise anything
attractive? For the time is past when
a single woman or asInglo great modisto
could send forth a mandate and watch

suits, well and good; II not there musl

Now many, nay most, OF tho fall
gowns are not made oyerskirt fashion.
What the winter may bring forth Is not
easy 10 predict. Still overskirts are
slowly gaining more ground, aud IL u

rule. In the meantime. the hye-gorec
skirt, fitting closely In front, with ful
