straight fronted getaways. These last are
to have queer collars, ending in deep
points like inverted revers. The getaways
are half tight in the back and hang
straight down in front from one enor-
nous button, which is all there is to fasten
it. The material for these is diagonal gen
orally in some solid color, like dark blue
green or black Stitching or perhaps a
milliner's fold of the same material is the
only trimming necessary to make a very
stylish if not beautiful garment. These
have large gigot sleeves.
Paddock coats are three-quarters fitting
and rarely very long. They are chiefly
distinguished by the seams, which are in
variabIy stitched fat. Covert suiting,
CLOTH dOeskin and kersey are the four
suitable materials. The Prince Albert
may be of any thick stuff suitable for a
full suit like cheviot, cloth, diagonal serge
and hopsack, which always looks stylish.
The little capeS are made of anything
Some of them, and the very prettiest, are
of perforated goods in some dark color
over contrasting one. Dresses and these
little capes are made to match in pattern
and coloring, and they make very pleasing
costumes for dressy persons. They are
particularly we'll suited for theater cos
tunes, though nearly if not quite half the
theater dresses now are made with plain
skirt and fancy waist
The other night at Days saw more of
these fancy corsages than could mention
in a week. One lady had light gray bro
caded wooden dress with a kind of yoke
made by jet beads sewed on in lattice pat
tern. The sleeves were of pale blue bro
cade. Another had corsage of mauVe
satin covered with shirred white chiffon
The sleeves We're of satin, overlaid with
chiffon, and there were three bands of
black lace double edge insertion studded
with jet down each sleeve. The effect was
very delicate and light. The wearer of
this had a bonnet completely covered with
medium sized roses of different colors-
white, yellow, Esd and pink. Perched upon
them was a butterfly made of white
duchess point with diamond eyes.
The new butterfly sleeve has suddenly
caught popular favor, and every new
sleeve now shows the form of the little
flutterer more or less well brought out 1t
is in some occult and magical fashion
achieved in all fabrics and on both long
and short sleeves. The short, full pulled
sleeve is the easiest to remodel into that
shape In some refractory cases the but
teriy is made of another material and put
on above the regular sleeve, which needs
some plating in to make place. There are
two favorite styles One is to have the
butterfly laid fat on the shoulder, the
wings standing outward, and in the other
case they are arranged to stand out up and
down. Both ways are pretty.
There was a very handsome dinner
gown made of royal heliotrope plaided
silk, the plaids being in a sort of lattice
pattern, but very close. The skirt was
gathered full all around. There was q
pointed girdle of prune velvet, with a
fancy gold and amethyst buckle. The
corsage was draped spencer fashion, leav-
ing it open V shaped at the throat. That
portion coming next the face was of the
silk and the rest of the velvet. The but
