FRILlS OF FASHION.
China Linen Imported Direct from the

China Linen Imported Direct from tne
Orient for Undergarments.
written for the Dispatch.)
Women who are fastidlous concerning
the daintiness Of their lingerie will be
pleased to hear OF a new material for
making fine undergarments. Heretofore
French batiste has excelled all other ia
brics In delicacy OF texture; elegantes
have for some time past refused to buy any
other stuff, But really. batiste is shock
ingly expensive, and besides, 1t Is too
frail to endure the rough handling usually
meted out 10 ones clothes in the laundry.
Fancy, then. what boon Is the discovery
of China linen, imported direct from the
Orient, and possessing every imaginable
virtue. The goods Is woven OF attenuated
threads of ramie Is thin and light. has
a marvellous gloss. and Is cool as rose
leaves next the skin. Its wearing quail
ties are surprising. and even from the
crudest washing 1t comes out crisp and
smooth as satin. The best grade Is thir-
ty-five inches wide, and costs about 20
cents a yard, and once used 1t wins and
holds its own.
NOVELTIES IN YELLING.
New York shops that develop one or
more novelties every week are now Offer
ing some rather fresh ideas In wells. The
newest is Of fine silk tulle cut to INT
medium-sized hat and sparsely sprinkled
with black morie spots that shine when
the sun strikes them. narrow MORE
ribbon borders the veil, that as whole Is
smart, and extremely trying TO the eyes.
other recent styles are Of chiffon in tan,
blue and black, with deep salvage ana
plain surface. For driving and visiting
In the country fashionable women are
rather fond OF cream tulles and nets
that are SO odous when worn on the
streets. Some Of these light wells are
really very charming, having the hne
silk surface overlsid with delicately-
wrought lace figures and deep border
of rich neediework. Black chiffon has
now almost displaced the popular nuns
yelling for mourning use.
A NEW JEWEL.
Spring and summer coats, whether cut
with long basques or shipped OF into
garcon Jackets seldom fasten across the
bust. but are finished at that point with
buttonholes opposite each other. This Is
done 10 give place for little trinket
that has captivated the fancy Of woman
kind. An unusually handsome specimen
had an exquisite miniature set In a Louis
Seize frame of old silver studded with
diamonds, the whole pin being about
the size OF a fifty-cent piece. This fast
ened over the right hand buttonhole, and
from II extended a silver chain that
slipped through the opposite hole, knotted
once about itself, and ended In a silver
ball completely crystallized with bril-
liants
