OF all nuisances, according to these
up-to-date damsels, it is the worst to
have to chain ones self down to ma
king over rich material that we are
sick and tired of, and yet really dare
not throw away because it is so
good" These Velvety weaves that
are not velvet are good helps toward
carrying out this doctrine.
Chatelaines in all sorts of brazen
abundance are being shown, and are
worn 50 much as to deserve mention.
Too often they are in very bad taste,
harness-like, rafting and ugly. 1t is
quite evident that the handsomely
modelled tops of the side bags that used
to be so fashionable have in many cas-
es been made use of for these chate-
laine tops. 1t is not unusual to see
one extending from the front of the
bodice edge almost round to the hip
and dangling from the heavy gold
or silver foundation, from chains of
different lengths, are all manner of ut
terly useless kick-knacks. There you'll
see a watch-nice way to carry a de-
cent watch! a bOnbOnierre, a pair of
scissors, vingairette, even an opera
glass in it's case, a lorgnette, a purse, a
coin box, a little mirror, a drinking
cup, and so on. Why not a tooth
brush, a razor, a boot jack and a box
of pills? FLORETTE.

Illustrates this point, yet is was intend
ed for wear in weather that necessi-
tates little protection for the most SEN
sitive throat. Its material was shot
Nile green silk, and the skirt was
banded with narrow black chantilly
insertion that met in points in front.
The fitted bodice was trimmed with
lace bands and fastened invisibly at
the left side. It's sleeves and stock col
lar were green silk covered with lace,
but the puffs were from the plain ma
terial. Nile green velvet gave the wide
girdle and long ends.
One development of the coming
swathing for the throat is entirely
new. The limit to the outstanding pos
sibilities of the neck ruff or other kin
dred arrangements seems to have
reached, so as women still wish the
building about their threats to rise,
they have taken to ruffied wells. These
deceptive ruffies are set on the veil
along the lower edge, except the little
portion where the chin shows through.
This ruffle, therefore hangs high on
the very top of the collar elaboration,
and seems to be part of it, thus extend
ing it at least half a inch higher. If
the ruffie crossed the chin, the decep-
ton would betray itself.
Embroidered grass lawns are so
dainty and beautiful, but after one
wearing they will not be nearly so at
tractive. so there's no need of turning
cOvetous over them. Lace striped
linens are not so dainty, perhaps, but
they will make up charmingly and were
never shown in such profusion. Fig
ured muslins come in black with
bright roses or vines sprinkled all
over them. Very artistic and pretty
gowns can be made of these over eth
er black or a color that is suggested
in some part of the design. A black
muslin lasts better than do the lighter
ones.

4 CORSET STORY.

The Rontgen ray corset is a sudden
Iy adopted new notion into which
women have been scared. The story
of it's invention is that a great profess
sor-horrid old thing! took a Rontgen
ray picture of one of his patients who
was nervous invalid. He took her
with her street costume on, and we
all know that the corset under tai
tornado is sitter and tighter than we
ever wear at any other time. Well,
the bones of the patient took, and the
bones of the corset took, and when
she saw what the bones of her corset
were doing to her own bones she had
a fit right there. The doctor, being
smarter about curing fits than any
thing else. got her out of the cOnvul-
sion, and promised her cure of every
thing else if she would change her cor
sets. A clever tradesmnn at once
invented the new corset, but he found
that the Rontgen ray idea was not
helpful to its sale, though he insists
that no woman who has seen a Ront-
gen ray through herself and an Ordin-
airy corset can breathe a minute af-
terward with that sort of corset on.
So he chose a prettier name for his in
ventiOn, and tells this story only to
those who he thinks can stand ii.
The new corset is short, supports the
bust, follows the hip line, and makes
a line from the bust to the waist which
is rendered extremely flexible below
the waist. You can imagine what

TWO WITH BRAID ON EN-.

Two very handsome examples OF the
braid trimmed gowns now so abundant
are shown in the accompanying illus
tration. In the right hand one the
material was scarlet serge, black silk
braid trimming it in the manner indi-
Gated. the bodice having braid trim
ming at the back, too. The other
dress was gray cloth, and was even
more ornate than the other. Its bodice
and a narrow vest of white cloth or
namented with gray soutache, and its
bretelIe effect was of the same mater
ial. Braided white cloth also appear
ed on the sleeves and in the bands on
the skirt that matched the bretelles.
These handsome braid effects are
fashion that has grown slowly, so
there is nothing surprising in it, but
new style of trimming that has come
upon us suddenly and that evidently
means TO remain all summer is rather
startling. 1t is seen in the use of vel
vets and velveteens on gowns for late
spring wear. These new limitations of
velvet are especially hard to resist.

A pretty modification of the prevail

over one of the loose sides of the jack

the other side of the jacket remains

line by fastening the rest of the skirt
ing to it, A skirt thus planned can be
worn by a really stout person and al
low them the full and sweeping lines
of a wide skirt at the hem, while
their hips are not in the least widened.
To such women this sort of skirt offers
a rare advantage, while to a slender
woman the style is all the more becom-
ing.
A modification of this idea is shown
in the accompanying picture, and car
ries the mentioned recommendations
to the full degree. The material was
gray satin covered with cream lace,
the seam of the yoke being covered
with a ruching of white muslin. Three
similar ruches trimmed with lace near
the hem, but on the bodice, which
was also lace-covered gray satin. the
ruchings ran from the shoulder to
belt. A chiffon iabOt concealed the
fastening; three chiffon rufles reliev-
ed the plainness of the sleeves. and the
wide belt was cerise satin.
Skirts shirred on to the edge of a
bodice belt are extremely pretty. The
bodice thus outlines the figure from
Just below the bust line to just above
the hips, the skirt falling very full
from there. Thus the wide hiDs, at
present rather favored by fancifully
fashionable women. are secured and
the contrasting small waist demanded
is emphasized.

PoKEs BY A NEW NAME.

The sash ribbon is very helpful to the

for the occasion, but pokes were in
fashion that year. This being jubilee
year poke bonnets are made the fash
ion again, just to remind Victoria how
she used to look. They are very be-
coming to young faces, and the reason
that they are not more generally liked
is that so many women like to be dash
ing instead of demure. If you are go
ing to wear a poke, you must be de-
mure; not to be would be like going to
church on roller skates.
Demurity should win new converts;
however, when women see these ador

pink rose buds under the brim, against
the hair and framing the face. They

the cost of braiding a dress in some
original manner, and there Will De no
longer any doubt in your mind as to
this last point The trimming OF the
dress that the artist puts here was
no small part of its cost. It's goods
was a swollen brown woollen stuff,
trimmed in the skirt by three bands
of cloth. Its jacket bodice had loose
frnts and a fitted vest of white cloth
crossed by horizontal rows of narrow
brown soutache and finished with
brown collar and belt. The jacket
fronts turned back in revers and were
prettily appliqued with brown braid
the sleeves being trimmed to match
the revers. A fold of the cloth finish
ed the edge of sleeves and jacket and
the turned down collar was entirely OF
cloth.
Flannel shirt waists have appeared
simultaneously at the swell mems pla-
ces and at the exclusive ladies' tailors.
That gives the taiIorgirl confidence,
but the women who do not patronize
the exclusive ladies' tailor can profit
by this idea and make shirts of either
flannel or flannellette. choosing stylish
dainty colorings. The shirts are made
with three fiat pleats front and back,
and are not run on to a belt. They
hang free. and must be drawn into
