but there is some dispute as to whether
he has deepened the harbor five feet.

fore in the plain. Following the demand
for reps, there are novelties in wide ribbed
velutina in all the seasons newest colors
and tints, the most of them superb when
brought out in these beautiful goods,
which will be very popular for swell
functions where so rich a fabric can he
worn with propriety. l saw two "cute"
skating dresses, almost finished, for two
sisters who will duff their mourning this
winter. Ono is of nikelo gray wide ribbed
velutina bordcred on the skirt with zibe-
line. There is pilot coat Of the same
material reaching but little below the
waist, with fur all around it and with
two natty little pockets. The other is of
navy blue and trimmed and made in near
ly the same style, hut with American lynx
fur. Cunning little hoods, fur trimmed
also, will be made.
must not forget to mention the sudden
outbreak of black ostrich plumes.
counted eight good sized ones on one hat
today, and if there were no moro on it it
was because there was no room. The hat
itself was of butter colored straw, with n
sort of overwcavo of fine stiff cord of the
same color making it look like the yellow
growth in swampy places. Tho brim was
wide and bent into several waves. In
lHcHO ana ulutf inc Dflln were PINK iOScS
and overlapping everything were MASSES
of plumes, Ono was curlcd under the
brim on the left side. Another rough but
fine straw had no trimming, but lunches
of plumes, some outstanding and others
dropping. One had feathers and velvet
ribbon bows Feathers have arrived very
suddenly and think rather unexpectedly.
There was pretty gray felt hat with
slightly bent brim, pink rose under the
brim and large bunch of plumes on tho
top. There are moro shapes than can
mention, but nothing in hats goes without
plumes and lots of them-white, black
colored and natural
Very likely many ladies who read this
may have old ostrich plumes laid aside
from which all the flutliness and curl have
departed. If such ladies will follow these
directions, they can make those bcdrag-
glod feathers as pretty as if just bought;
To curl them anew put a teakettle on the
stove, and when the water boils well hold
the feather in the steam until every flue Is
moist and pliable Then take knife, not
too sharp nor yet too dull, and with that
curl up each flue separately just rs you
would draw strip of paper through your
fingers to curl it against the knife edge.
When all have been curlod, lay the feather
in the sun, and you will be surprised to see
how fluffy ana rich it will appear.

actly lace, but is material for dancing
dresses. 1t is of silk tissue, fine as tho
mist on mountain, with stripes of tho
Same color, like sunbeams struggling
through. Sometimes these stripes are
plain, and sometimes they arc brocaded at
intervals of two inches with the tiniest
but most cxquisitcly woven flowers, all in
the same color. These tissues arc seen in
bluet, the lovely color of the cornnower,
mauve, and, in fact, all the new tints of
this season, particularly the golden, but
tercup, butter and maize, and each APP
pears prctticr than the last.
Then como the nets and tullcs sewed
with spanglCs, jewels and pearls. Ono had
little pendants about an inch long of pearl
beads and silver spangles Another had
emerald spanglcs; Others fire color and
ruby, sapphire and other jewels. They all
have spanglcs as well as jewels, but they
are so delicately made that they do not
look heavy oven on the tulle. These span
glod and beaded laces are p inches wide
and will cost quito high, but their won
derful beauty and fairylikc lightnoss will
make them eagerly sought by all who can
possibly afford them. The present style
Of dressmalSing is admirably well adapted
for these beautiful gowns.
Next to these como the beaded laces
These are in black, done on fine net, and
with very small but brilliant jet beads,
and they nearly all have quite sharply
pointed scallopS at the bottom and an
artistically designed pattern. 10 match
these there is great variety of insertions,
widc and narrow These will be laid
fiat on colored goods, but when on black =
ribbon of some chosen color will DO laid
under them to show up the pattern. The
beaded laces come in all widths for rufles
and flouncings, and they are well adapted
to the figured silks presented this season.
For heavier wear the black gupure is
shown in dozens of widths and patterns.
This lace is of silk, firmly woven, and is
richer than any black lace presented in
any generation, not excepting bourbon and
| Spanish. 1t wears better than either of
those two kinds. 1t is as individual as
venetian point and quito as rich, though
guipure is black and the other white.
Black chantilly in the lightest and most
feathery patterns ever seen is shown and
will be largely used on grosgrain silks.
The bourdons are better for woolens, such
as silk warps and cudoras, also faycttas,
and the guipures can DO put on all kinds
of silk and silk warp woods. There are
white cbantillics in the same patterns as
the black, and they are the most delicate
laces l have ever seen, and it is n marvel to
me how human fingers ever wove them.
These will be used on fine millinery, for
ties and for garnishing light evening silks
and other gowns where light and ethereal
effects arc sought for.
The newest in white trimming laccs is in
a kind of point dc venise in cream, pure
white and butter color. They consist of
very deep vandykes, some of them 80
inches deep This lace is arranged so that
each yard conta n certain number of
points graduated in height. These are to
be set around tho front of the skirts, the
points upward. There is always a narrower
lace to match this in pattern for waist
