ed again. Some very dainty lace man
ties are shown to go with some of the late
spring dresses. They have for the most
part a round or V shaped yoke of ietted
velvet or silk, with very full ruffles of Span
ish lace.
We are told that the gentlemen are to
wear colored pique shirts for spring and
summer. These have the ribs running cross
wise and a plaid outline wrought through
it in very delicate colors, or perhaps a small
and neat printed pattern upon it, These are
not to be outing shirts, but real nice dress
up shirts. And they say that velvet and
satin vests, and also white and buff linen
vests, will be worn, and that they will be
cut longer and higher than they have been,
and that the wide stocks are to almost SUI
persede cravats. These changes, with the
quaint looking bell crowned hats, will make
the stronger sex look more beautiful than
ever, particularly with the three story col
lars they are now wearing
Smoking jackets and lounging robes are
mostly made of the soft swans down fan
mel, which has a plaid pattern on the inside
and notified figure with border of stripes
on the outside. Few long robes are shown
now, as the majority of men, it is said, pre-
fer short ones. But in any case be sure to
exactly where they put them all but be
lieve the law on this subject is very strict.
They fasten with frogs instead of the OBJ
noxious cord and tassel. Handkerchiefs
are five-eighths square, with a half inch
hsmstitch hem, and made of linen lawn.
Among the new light wooden materials
is what is called satin cashmere and wooden
satin. This has surface much like farm
er's satin, bnt there is this difference the
wooden satin is all wool, while farmers
satin is half cotton. This makes fabric
30 nearly like thick, rich satin that it Is
bound to become an immediate favorite,
and it will wash like cashmere when the
colors are washable. 1t is shown in beaver,
pompadour, fig green. lucifer red, fawn,
sailor blue and also in black as well as the
old standard colors. The most of them are
reasonable in price, but some OF the finest
qualities are as costly as real satin There
Is also a new cotton velvet that may find
Bome favor for spring suits. 1t is called
the olympia. 1t is light and looks quite
pretty, but cannot compare with velutina.
There are several new devices in MORE
Black shows dots, clover leaf or coffee Der
~ or snow crystal patterns over the sur
face. There are many cheap moires in light
colors for home and dancing gowns-pretty
and cheap, but not very durable. The rib
bed silk in wavy lines is also shown in
spring colors as we'll as black. The vi
gogne grapes are seen in colors this spring,
too, and very pretty they are. The cron-
stadt crepon with puckered lines is pretty.
The varsovienne tricot is another new
weave having stripes of tricot and open
work stripes. This is pretty, but not very
good value as the open work lines are apt
to catch to everything and ravel. Gautfered
ribbon will be used very much as trimming
to many spring silks, and cotton backed
velvet ribbon, If one may judge, will al
most be fad sewsd fiat in different widths
on skirts. MATE LEROY.

It conformed to the shape Of the skirt so as
to lie fiat on it. The waist was plain and
round and derived it's sole ornamentation
from straps and buckles across the front
and at the waist line. There was a short
cape of satin, made very full, so that it fell
in deep ruffles, and there was n triple collar
to it, both made in the same lavish manner.
This made a costume quite unique, but
one that will be very useful for a variety of
requirements.
Black velvet and black sstrakhan were
the materials used in making cloak for
little girl, and as they are rarely used for
such purpose | will describe the cloak.
The front and yoke were of astrakhan.
The collar was velvet bordered with astra-
khan. The body of the coat was plated on
to the yoke formed of the fur Down the
front were set eight gold buttons. There
was bertha cape falling over the sleeves,
made of velvet and bordered with the fur.
The black brought out the exquisite fair
ness of the child's complexion, and 1t was

genta taffeta. however that was made for
a leader of styles in New York would 90 to
show that there are some persons daring
enough to wear magenta yet. This dress
had the skirt cut plain, and it was open on
the right side to show panel of myrtle
green On the corners of the skirt there
were rich applique designs in black, and
another similar design was placed on the
front of the skirt at the waist line. The
corsage was moderate incroyable, with a
white satin vest, with revers of the same,
and with wider revers set behind them of
the green There was full jabot of EN-
broidered chiffon at the throat, and the
high white satin collar was draped with
chiffon. In addition to the revers there
was cape rutfie of the dotted taffeta eX-
tending straight around in the back. The
sleeves had two puffs, and two thick white
cords fastening the waist gave it another
distinction.
Magenta cerise and gooseberry are colors
that might better be relegated to children,
but curously enough it is the elder inst cad
of the younger members of family that
wear the brightest colors this season.
Black silks in the always popular ar
mure, faille, grosgrain and surah weaves
are seen this season oftener than usual
de sole are employed to make some of the
most elegant of the latest imported gowns.
One rich and tasteful dress was made of
satin faced surah. The skirt was made
plain, five gored and not very full except in
4 the back, where it was laid in deep fiat
plaits There were seven rows of black vel.
vet ribbon laid from top to bottom and
studded with jet beads Another similar
band encircled the skirt, heading flounce
of black lace. The cOrsage was laid in plaits,
having bands of velvet ribbon, and there
were bretelles, which were also bordered
with it. The sleeves were dropping and not
very full balloon puffs. The whole gown
was an artistic creation.
! am very glad to note that many of the
handsome new gowns are laid in deep kilt
plaits from top to bottom, for this is a
style that has always been graceful and be-
coming, though little difficult for the am
ateur If the plaits are pinned into place
upon the person or on one of the figures
made .or that purpose, they will hang well,
but it is next to impossible TO get them to
do so if they are laid in on table. To re-
turn to the dress of which speak particu-
larly, this gown was made of the exqui-
site new eudora cloth The glossy material
fell in rich folds from waist to feet There
was snort military cape, plated also and
bordered with persian brocade quite lC
inches deep, and this was in turn bordered
with band of gray fox fur, There were Il
collar and plated neck ruff following the
same design. Nothing could have made a
richer garment.
Black diagonal cheyiot was also used to
make another very modish spring toilet.
The skirt was plain, save for band of vel
vet piped with satin that encircled it at the
knees. This band was Is inches wide, and

Cherry red, gooseberry green, apple green
Ind tomato red are among the new colors
that we shall see and perhaps have to
wear during the coming season. The
gooseberry green is more of rich red
dish purple than it is green, but as there is
an occasional green heck of color in it we
can call it green. | think the green specks
must be meant to show the spines or
prickles on the hairy kind of gooseberries
such as Jeems Yellowplush tells Of. At
any rate, these colors are all shown in the
