New York, Sept. 2.-September, the
first month of glory, has dawned 1t win
not brighten for while; but perhaps to-
ward the end will burst forth in brill
lance. Or mayhap it may turn its glow
over to staunch October, and simply fore
cast the glory by few Pushes Of color.
But we are ahead of mature again. The
order of things is reversed. We set the
colors we desire, and expect her to follow
as she may. We cannot await with pa
thence the day of King Frost's coming.
We must needs run before him, sending
forth his colors in tones that all may
hear. We must needs wrap the colors of
his raiment about US, and set him a glo-
rious example.
But we shall wait awhile in spite Of
our Impotence to be up and doing. We
shall spend most of our time this month
in admiring, in dreaming, hoping and
planning, in selecting, purchasing and
completing. Then the arrival of genuine
autumn will find us ready. But it is true
that when we do blossom out it will be as
emhodiments of the warm richness Of ma
ture herself. The delicacy of the sum-
mer colors will droop and die, and gor-
geous tints Will again be in the dscen-
dency. Not only will there be richness
of color but of material also. Alack and
alas! We will need to look to our pur-
ses this early fall. Were we extravagant

great holes in once well-flled pouchesi
Did summers sun shine upon gauZes and
laces that exhausted the wealth that re-
mained2 Did we feel that extravaganza
had become the rule and moderation the

for the intensihcation of expenditure and
feeling. Make ready to be liberal, to be
lavish, if you will be in the swim. Do
YOU object2 Then make your protesta-
lions firmly ana decidedly, now, before 1t
is too late.
We have heard much lately concerning
the good the extravaganza of womankind
is doing. We all know of the trades that
have been duickened through the steady
pursuit of woman's fancies. But the
other side would need to be brought to
the light The good so accomplished
can surely never overcome the evil caused
by the limitless indulgence of every ca
price The select class whom fortune ia
vors can safely follow this course, and in
doing so they ride over the hearts of
thousands of women who would fain be
like them, and who ruin more lives than
their own. often, in their willful determin-
alton to succeed Give in they will not, to
be smiled out of existence. For the wo-
man that shows the slightest trace of old
fasionedness quickly discovers there is
something wrong with her. 1t is serious
condition of affairs: Inc emancipation
of woman is a delusion. We are bound,
this nineteenth century, by closer and
more calling letters than ever the women
of wore would bear. Where are the brave
ones that will consent to free their kind2
7, ct them beware OF the platform; let
them keen to their family circle and So
cial sphere, and let them be taken from
the rank and file of true, common sense
womanhood, and the good they will do
will return to them after many days.
But let me not be misunderstood when
now unroll before your enraptured gaze
rich and costly materials of wondrous
eolorings. The function of the fashion
writer's is indisputably TO present the style
that now is or soon win be, no matter
how deeply such matter Is to be deplored.
Therefore, your three, four, five, six dol
lars per yard material must be faithfully
described, for it promises to become the
rage.
First, behold six dollar yard length
heavy wool, loosely and coarsely wooven.
1t is covered with great seed dots of
black, in the same heay, harsh
thread. Between the close seeds of
green the orange shines out, and a quick
movement accentuates its oddity and
brilliance. You are not quite sure as you
gaze at it, whether it is most propelling
or most fascinating. At any rate, suffice
is that it is at the height of fashion. Then
there is a softer, silkier material,
mohair with thick, looes
Stripes Of flag blue Over the black be-
tween are silken rings of loose mohair,
curling like astrachan. This curling
as trachan effect is a great feature of many
of the new materials. 1t is put on very
lightly and thinly, so that the material
shall not be too weighty. A lovely terra
Gotta curled more closely with dark green
rings.
Then when you get tired of these i'm
pressive varieties, you may rest your eyes
with an Indian novelty. 1t is of a paler
terra Gotta, delicate shade, woven in
queer pattern of silk over a soft cotton
ground. The silk effect is almost general,
enhanced by leaf and flower pattern
that is worked over in raised lines of
black and pale reseda, a pale reseda
ground of similar fabric, in black and
delicate blue.
Then there is a soft, thick camel's hair
much more beautiful than those coarse
tibres that cost very much less-two fifty
yard. 1t shades softly from olive to
white, from blue to white, in waving
lines. Then other ombre cancels hair
are shaded in the autumn colors-brown
shades with a rich leaf green that takes
on look of blue in its darkest tints;
yellow brown melts into the autumnal
reds; a subdued patriotic red becomes a
subdued patriotic olive; a lovely green be
comes a rich helfotrope These are ex-
quisite, both in texture and coloring,
A fanciful material of odd, short stripes
that suddenly narrow into points, that
are crossed with lines, or that stop to
give place to stripe of another color
that runs to meet it, shades from light
blue into black, interspersed with Jagged.
white threads, and gold in fine thread
worked systematically over.
A sage green melts into wood brown,
also, after this fashion, worked over with
white.
There are plaids on the big order, in
blue gray and gray green's, and green
blues, dark green or blue, run with finer
lines OF browns or other duh shades
These, too, are very effective. They come
in wiry twills.
