Fashion Echoes.

In Paris mt are wearing a long
black velvet strip that has the effect
of the clergyman's stole.
Gingham, both the silk and cotton,
will be worn as much as ever the
coming season. and the quality is al
most as fine as linen. The colorings
are exquisite and are warranted to
wash.
Among the new designs for the
spring season is a circular velvet cape
with a vest of brocaded satin or silk,
or braided cloth. The cape is gather
ed in a full ruche round the neck and
held on either side of the throat bald
with huge buckles.
Ladies are to wear white linen col
lars with colored shirts precisely as
gentlemen wear them. The cuffs,
however. are of the colored cotton.
The high, straight standing collar
Is preferred in linen, but those turIi-
ed over will also be worn. Stiffiy
starched shirt bosoms like those Of
last year are offered again, and are
especially appropriate with the white
linen collars.
The favorite colorings of the last
London drawing room were light
blue, light yellow and a rich peach,
but many black gowns were DIVERSE
fed by Innings or trimming of the
most resonant poppy color or grass
green. White satin trimmed with lace
and fur was much worn with velvet
trains; velvet and brocades, which ap-
peared to be very old fashioned, were
the two favorite styles for trains.
1t is advisable that one should have
one petticoat to be used exclusively
for walking. and this may be faced
for some distance from the bottom
with a waterproof cloth. There will
then be almost perfect protection fol-
the feet and ankles in wet weather
1t is the swishing of damp clothins
about the feet that constitutes mos
of the discomfort of a rainy day eXpe
dition, and the waterproof lining does
away with this.
A new variety of vest is coming in
1t suggests the full dress vest tina.
men wear, but it is not so low. 4
spring dress with this vest is mad
of biege serge. The jacket is GU
zouave fashion. revealing a waist
coat of red cloth, which is buttoned
with small brass buttons. The wais
coat is curt Oval shape and a chemis
cite and collar of white batiste is in
serted. The revers are Ornamentet
with fancy buttons. ButtOnss ar

A good way TO modernige a plat

it a blouse effect by trimming tn
front with three lengthwise bands q
