was effected in the costume shown
below, whose skirt was pale gray ac-
cordeon pleated cashmere, and whose
| blouse waist was biasplaided taffeta
showing white, gray and mauve. Col
/ lar and belt were mauve velvet liber-
ally supplied with paste buckles, and
the tight sleeves had the small, droOp-
ing puffs that are now deemed just
right. The blouse fastened at the
side, and its bolero effect, for of course
| it must have some bOlero suggestion
to be in the hunt, was gained by sever
al rows of narrow black velvet rib
bon, the effect being heightened by
three narrow straps of the same rib
bon that pretended to hold together
the counterfeit jacket fronts.
The rage for bolero is undated, and
it allows all sorts of happy expedients
in the way of combination costumes.
AS for instance, a black grenadine is
made over an ivory striped silk. The
jaunty short bolerO is separated from
the brocaded white grenadine of the
bodice. This bodice shows a perfect
modelling to the figure in the black,
and is likely a loosely pleated front
from chin to belt The belt is simply
a roll of black satin, with a handsome
bow at one side for a finish. The lit
tie bOlerO turns back with a pair Of
iaunty reverS and under them is set
fall of lace that the outline of the
reVerS may be made clear. This same
little bolerO can be worn over a black
satin blouse, the result being a very
stunning black costume. OF course
the hrOcaded ivory grenadine can also
be used with something else, as
sleeves are provided that hook on at
the shoulder. When the sleeves are
on the brocade is at once complete
bodice, and worn under green vel
vet bolero and cashmere skirt the eff
feet is as jaunty as If it had been
made for use with the green.

COLORINGs OF NEW SILKS.

The new silks show solid ground
in dark color, black, blue, brown of
green. and over this ground are thick
ly strewn tiny dots of brilliantly con-
trasted color, as scarlet, bright green
or turQoise blue. A gown made with
a skirt of such material may show a
waist to match the brilliant color,
while the sleevse are of the darker
shade of the ground. Lace may be
added, stretched smoothly over the
silk matching the ground Of the silk.
Stock. tips at the sleeve, and perhaps
dash of bright color in facing or at
the belt, will complete the effect.
Bright, cheerful colors always pre-
vail in house and morning dresses, but
Just now there is marked tendency
toward brilliant hues, reds taking the
lead. The pretty morning dress shown
today, for example, was in flame col
Ored nuns yelling trimmed freely with
bands of white insertion. Besides
vertical bands of insertion, there was
for skirt trimming a ruff1e Of the goods
about the hem, and the bodice had a
V shaped lace yoke both in back and
IN front. The collar Of the goods was
trimmed with lace, and the long sash
was crossed with insertion, huge jet
buckle holding it. Wrinkled sleeves
of the nuns yelling had small puffs
at the top.
Though attractive shirt waists are
shown in great numbers, it is hardly
good time to buy. The really new
ones are very expensive, besides being

the skirt to the throat. The rows
droop a little at the front and mount
at the back and sides. Grenadine is
to be so popular a material, however,
that no one kind of gown can be fairly
taken as typical use Of this stuff. The
dress worn by the seated woman In
this picture was grenadine, and was
brand new dress of fine design, yet in
cut and color was quite different from
the one mentioned above. To begin
with. it was mauve colored and made
over green silk. A festooned ruftie Of
ACCORDION pleated mauve taffeta trim
med the skirt, and rows OF the plated
taffeta crossed the front of the bodice
from shoulders to waist. Belt and
collar were prune colored velvet.
Another material newly in favor but
already we'll established is cashmere,
which is now being worn great deal
and is rapidly becoming more abun-
dant. For Lent gray is a favorite
color for it as well as for other goods,
and mouse gray was the shade Of the
companion dress to the one just de-
scribed. Bands of white satin COW
cred with steel spangled tulle trimmed
its skirt, vest and collar being of the
same materials. The waist was gath
cred at the shoulders and the surplice
front was carried to the back where
it formed one large loop and two ends
that hung to the skirts hem.
Fancy waists are as much worn as
ever. A very beautiful new model
was in handsome white cashmere
with Turkish designs embroidered all
over it. 1t opened over a satin vest
of petunia satin and a beautiful lace
collar laid fat at the throat and across
the top the cerise vest gave character
TO the whole. The bodice was finish
ed at the waist line by a roll of cerise
velvet. Tucks crossed the bust line
Just under the edge of the lace collar.

That appears impromptu, while as a
matter of fact every pleat and curve
conforms to mathematical precision
of arrangement. White satin stocks
are worn with all sorts of dresses

chin, while at the back they vie and
spread into all sorts of delicately
