What
The Fashions
Dictate

Princess gowns are coming decidedly
into fashion In Paris The back Is usually
cut without middle seam, and the full
moss Of the skirt is provided for by plaits
or godets let in just below the waist line.
The skirt may be separate from the bodice
in front and opens at the left side. Sepa-
rate skirts are also opened at the side. The
back breadth is kept whole, and the old
idea of having the pocket hole there is en-
tirely discarded
Large mother Of pearl buttons are worn
on nearly everything. Indeed large, ex-
pensive buttons are the principal orna-
ments Of cloth coats and jackets.
Sleeves are to be still more voluminous
this summer 1t now takes almost as
much goods for pair of sleeves as for the
rest of the gown.
Stripes are seen In all kinds Of goods.
Some of the new muslins and dimities are
particularly pretty. Many of the most

delicate tinted ones are emphasized by a
tiny thread of black or q fine black ara
besque wandering among the stripes. The
patterns in yellow and rose are especially
pleasing.
Petticoats of striped silk are trimmed
with deep ilounce of lace and punches
OF baby ribbon.
The slashed mode of decoration is much
employed for children's garments, as it Is
simple and effective A plain bodice may
be slashed to show coored vest for in
stance, and the sleeves arranged in simi-
lar style, while the skirt is entirely plain,
and no further trimming will be required.
Dressmakers now put a pocket In the
skirt and close it with flap that fastcns
with three buttons, thus discouraging
business among the pickpocket fraternity.
The gown illustrated is Of lavender and
white striped silk and lavender mousseline
de sole. A ruche of mousseline de sole is
placed about the foot of the silk skirt,
punctuated at short intervals by erect
knots of fuchsia velvet. The square cut
corsage Is of white lace half draped with
mousseline de sole, which is crossed in
front. The short lace sleeves are draped
with mousseline de sole, and bretelles of
jacqueminot roses pass over the shoulders.
A trail Of roses falls from the left side of
the waist.
Velvet cloth and crepon are the fash
ionable materials The new spring Gre
pons are really beautiful merely as OBJ
jects of art. There is an immense variety
of weaves all rather large in their effect,
and in both all wool and silk and wool
goods there is nothing left to be desired.
The taste for bright, clear colors still pro
walls, and all shades Of rose, green and
blue are well represented, besides the usual
large assortment of patterns in black.
Crepon has had great vogue and shows
no sign of yet retiring from public favor
There are also number of fine fancy
weaves in dress goods, two tones being
often employed, black being usually COM
bined with some color. The fancy weaves
IN all black goods are particularly attract
i've, showing fine brocade effects
In standard materials at a lower price,
such as serges and henriettas there are
number of reds and clear browns shown.
These are picturesque and serviceable col
ors and bid fair to be much worn

the purpose and made just long enough to
cross under the chin, where they are fas-
tened with a small jeweled brooch.
The latest velvet ribbon has q jetted
edge Piece velvet Is much used for trim
ming and usually has a richer effect than
ordinary velvet ribbon.
The veil worn with the larger hats is q
double width net, tbickly spotted with
chenille, worn as loosely drawn veil over
the hat, and not put on first and the hat
placed over it, as some Philistine young
ladies, even among good dressers. are in
the habit of arranging their wells. The
ends should be allowed to drop little be-
hind and not wadded into an awkward
bunch to get them out of the way.
Fine mixed straws are to be worn this
spring. Some pretty ones are shown in
navy blue and white in close, narrow
brimmed shapes
Separate, highly ornamented collars are
still in vogue, and novelties are being con-
tinually produced The first one, for a
middle aged woman, is Of green satin and
spangled lace. 1t is adorned with pink
hortensias. The second collar is of plated
mauve satin The lower portion consists
of a flounce of cream guipure and.mous-
seline de sole, falling in points in front.
Mauve chrysanthemums and ribbon form
the trimming.
Buttons are TO be employed largely dur
ing the coming season both as decoration
and for the practical purpose of closing
garments in place of the prevailing hook
and eye
Independent bodices are as popular as
ever, and this fashion is considered partic-
uary appropriate for demitoilet for young
girls, who may wear with their bright and
somewhat elaborate corsage a skirt that
does duty on more sober occasions
Ruby and sky blue is one of the latest
color com bnations. 1t is most effective
when softened with white or black.

in large undulations Some sort of orna-
ment is usually worn, jewels or aigrets
by matrons, flowers and ribbons by young
girls.
Flowers and foliage continue to be a
fashionable trimming for hats, bonnets,
bodices, gowns and indeed almost every
garment in the wardrobe.
Extreme masculinity in feminine dress
has decidedly gone out. Although the
tailor gown Is by no means discarded, its
virtue is no longer considered to lie in its
mannishness, but rather in neatness of
finish and durability of material that are
quite reconcilable with a feminine appear
ance.
Stripes are prominent feature Of the
season and are often made up very effect
lively. The gown of which an illustration
is given is made of wide striped black and
white silk. 1t is trimmed with lace and
with bright yellow velvet ribbon. The
skirt has deep lace f1ounce and is trim
med in front with two bands of ribbon
fastened at the belt by choux and extend
ing to the top of the founce where they
terminate in bow and ends The round
bodice has V of lace at the back framed
by breteles of ribbon, which cross the
shoulders and come down to the waist in
front over a butterfly arrangement of lace.
The elbow sleeves consist of two puffs deo-
GRATED with ribbon bands and choux. The
decolletage is pointed back and front.

BATS OF moderate size are now the rule,

The liking for metallic effects does not
seem to diminish. Spangles and beads Of
all oolors are applied to lace and ribbons,
feathers and velvet, and this sort Of trim

light These spangled decorations arc
therefore employed not only for evening
bonnets but for elaborate theater bodices,
and when used with Judgment and taste
are extremely pleasing.

Our Need OF Foreign Mnrkcts

Tho absolute necessity for wider
markets for our surplus manufactured
goods is pointed out in recent issue
of tho Engineering aud Mining
Journal, ono of tho leading trade
papers of America. Tho Journal be-
licvcs that the United States will ere
long take an important part in sup
plying tho world with tho products of
its mills and factories, rs it now does
with farm products. Our great natu.
raj resources, labor saving machinery
and business enterprise count for
moro than rates of wages in fixing the
cost OF production, and in all these
things this country has nothing to
fear from its industrial rivals. Urging
tho increasing of our export trade the
Journal says:
'Tho extension of our foreign
markets is of high importance to
nearly every manufacturer in this
country. for foreign outlet, at even
low prices, not only relieves the home
market OF the pressure of surplus
stock, and thus helps to maintain
profitable prices here, but by increas-
ing output it lessons tho cost of what
VIC sell Mt home"
Deceived by the pretences Of tho
protectionists that the "home market"
was tho only one worthy attention,
our manufacturers have too long neg
lected to cater to trade in foreign
countries. So long as international
commerce was 'hampcred by the re-
strictions of the Mckinley tariff it
was difficult to do much in tho way of
extending our export trade. But with
the reduced taxes on raw materials of
the Wilson tariff there is now no rem
son why our goods should not be sent
to every part of the earth. 1t is GER
tain that the homo market cannot
consume nj the manufactures Which
we can produce. The only outlet for tho
surplus lies in their adaptation to tho
needs of foreign countries, 80 that wo
can secure our share of the worlds

performance WAS repeated third

Glass and the Wilson Tariff.

The glass industry was one for which
the tears of good, protectionists were
earnestly desired when the Wilson bill
reduced the tariff on imported glass.
Under the enormous duties, reaching
in some cases 120 per cent. imposed
on glass By the Mckinley tariff, large
number OF factories wsre shut down
during tho usual working senson, and
wages we're reduced in Detroit and
other cities. It was claimed by tho
protectionists that the Wilson tariff
would ruin the glass industry, but the
results have been just the reverse of
those predicted. In recent editorial
the Nation Glass Budget says:
''The situation remains encouraging
in that promised future business will
continue the general improvement
which has boon in progress for several
months past. The closing down of
factories seems to have been generally
delayed this year, indicating that
there isl demand being mndo upon all
branches of industry exceeding that
of former years. Concerns which last
year ceased operations in May and
early in June are now still in active
operation, and in many Instances
the announcement has boon made
that vacations will not commence until
July and August, and como have even
announced that the factories will not
DO closed ct all. Institutions that have
boon idle for months and years are
daily being put in operation, many
being and having been re-equipped
with new and modern machinery, and
while the remainder of tho summer
may DO comparatively quiet season
there is every reason to believe that
the fall will bring one of the most Wig
orous and general assumptions over
known in the history of the country.
On every hand preparation for such is
being made"
This proof OF tho condition of the
glass industry under tariff reform is
from non-partisan trade piper.
Among the idle factories to which the
Budget refers as about to resume work
Is tho Windsor Glass Works at Home
stcn3, Penn, which was closed shortly
after tho Mckinley tariff went into
operation. Tho three or four hundred
glass workers who will TO employed in
it, and tho thousands who will get
slender work and higher wages in the
various other factories, will vote In
1896 for the party of low tariffs and
prosperity.
