Jessie B. Mcclure, in st. Nicholas for August.
For the present moment the mod.
istes commend many French fabrics
for mourning dresses. The choice
among these are crepons in all their
varied crinkles, puckering, and stripes,
some entirely of wool, others partly
silk in dots Or in bayadere stripes, and
still others interviewer with mohair.
These can be had entirely without
lustre, and now rival the English Grape
which formerly was considered the
only fabric for first mourning. dresses.
Canvas.woven woolens are also chosen
for summer wear, as they are of very
light weight. Nun's.veiling is still
worn, and the excellent grenadines
from the smooth thin silk grenadine
like mousseline to the square-meshed,
iron grenadine which wears like iron.

The July Cosmopolitan marks the

lutionary announcement vas made
that the price of that magazine, al.

of three dollars a year. All sorts of
predictions have come to be unfulfll-
ed during the year-it would be i'm.
possible to maintain the rate-the
quality would he lowered-the size
would be decreased. But even severe
critics admit that with each succeed
ing number there has been a better
ment in the quality of articles and il.
Illustrations, and the size has remained
unchanged, except the always growing
advertising pages. The magazine
printed, for the six months embraced
in Volume XVI, one million four hun.
bred and nineteen thousand copies.
