some sort of fchu effect, in lace or chiffon-the round effects are most graceful for the light garden gowns. We make sleeves and all of the same tint, as of the same material. No, l do not think the gauge tint, or silk sleeve, combined with some other material, at all artistic. Everything is white. It is the most popular shade and we use a little ribbon, no great quantity. Where pale colors are employed we sometimes throw pink or blue slip over white foundation, which softens the effect considerably But for the white gown not a bit of color is employed.
 ''Skirts? They are just the same. We still use the skirt of the spring, to which we added one more godet at the back, where we had only three last year. The skirt has it's godet each side and the two in front, that are folded flat toward the center, so that sort of panel effect is given down the front. That style is for the more elab- crate gowns, such as this, for instance, !" and wonderful gown in heavy white silk, a pompadour stem with rich roses in natural tints, and striped finely in blue satin, was held up. We use much of this pampadour silk. But you see the skirts are now stiffened only twelve inches up, no farther, never about the top.
 Walking skirts are much simpler. They fit closely all around, until the very bottom, when the small godets appear at the edge"

worthy of the appellation. A lavender silk, softened almost to white by the silver sheen that overspread it, and delicately trimmed with a narrow point--a lace that had points at each edge, decided, striking angles A row of this was set into the skirt, some twelve inches above the edge. Two rows of it were set into the sleeves. A finer edge ran down each side of very modest blouse, and yoke was outlined by deep point of the lace, back and front, and by shaped pieces which joined the points, over each shoulder. A loose frill of white nous seline hung gracefully over the plain collar.
 Over in the Bois de Boulogne the scene was gayer-much gayer, but per- haps less attractive. Here there were not only baskets and punches of flow CTS, but rivers of them, horses flower trimmed, carriages and bicycles heaped with them, baby carriages, parasols and maids, alike adorned with prod igality, while artificial blossoms were in great profusion on all the gowns so cleverly reproduced that only their absolute freshness, after an hour or two in the glow of the sun, could con- vince one that they were not Mother Natures.

A cream-white gown of that soft, silky canvas, with full skirt, blouse of elbow sleeves, high, full collar--that vassal of the dress. But she had added black gloves that reached to the elbow, a spreading black hat, black parasol, boots and belt. These, taken in connection with her somber hair and delicate skin, made wonderfully strong picture even among all the blending of colors that crowded about her.

THE situation in Cuba is evidently
growing graVer every day, in spite OF
the rose-colored reports from Spanish
sources. Rebel leaders one after an
other have been killed on paper until
the only wonder is how 80 many Of them
ever found q foothold on the island.
The Spanisrds have defeated the revo-
lutionists in every encounter, and the
immediate suppression Of the revolution
has been constantly predicted. At last,
however, dispst ch comes from Havana
acknowledging Spanish reverse, and
with that acknowledgment is the an
nouncement that Captain General Cam
DOS has called for Ia, 900 more soldiers
from Spain to begin an aggressive cam
pAign. This means that the Spauish
authorities have been deceiving the
world as to the true situation in Cuba
and that affairs there are going from
bad to worse. So far as known not
many Americans have joined the Cuban
forces; but II they learn that the people
OF the island have fighting chance to
secure their independence. they are
likely to enlist in large numbers. When
they do there will be some real fighting
in Cuba.
