FRILLS OF FASHION.

The cuirass bodice OF s%himnering jet s~pang1es
and fine beads, embroidered in a spreading de-
sign or sewn in close bands on net and chiffon.
was a very conspicuous feature of the variety
in dress at the Horse Show. This glittering
armor was not always of jet, however,. for both
gray and white chiffon. heavily embroidered
with steel or silver, were prime favorites. En-
tire bodices of iridescent ~spangles on black ne t
were also to be seen.

Among tho countless fancies in neckwcar are
the Empire ties of Brussels net in cream or
white, with tucks and a lace edged plating
across the. ends. They fold twice around the
neck and tie in a soft bow or four-in-hand knot.
Shorter ties of this sort, folding once around the
neck, are worn with linen collars and silk shirt
waists, and are vastly more becoming than the
plain little bands of silk or satin.

Guimpes with sleeves of lace, light corded
silks embroidered with gold and silver thread,
and miroir velvet in light tints are the most
striking differences in detail between the last
seasons gown and this years. and they add
much to the dressy effect of q cloth gown. Ono
pretty guimpe, worn with a gray cloth gown, Is
OF cream white corded silk, spotted with a little
cross figure done in narrow. fiat silver braid,
with a bead to mark the centre. An embroid-
cred design in silver finishes the neck of the
cloth bodice, which also has q cord of turquoise
blue velvet on t he edge. A heavy lace, with
the largo leaf pattern outlined with white
chenille. forms another stylish guimpe, with
slightly wrinkled sleeves. Gray velvet. stud

Is charming as an underbodice and sleeves for a
gray cloth gown with a plain skirt, and a bib

One Of tho new g~uipures is the feature Of tho
next bodice. which is part of a gray green cloth
gown. Bands Of green velvet and an edge Of
brown tur trim the round collar, and the sleeves
and neck are of heavy lace over white silk. The
lattice effect so popular this season is brought
out in another bodice of white mousseline dc
sole. crossed with black velvet ribbon and tiny
white silk braid sewn on one edge Of each row.
A black and white embroidered band finishes
the neck. and the yoke and sleeves are Of white
lace. Another bodice shows a lace vest with
a lattice design in narrow white satin ribbon
over the lower part. Rows of narrow braid
trim the edge Of the blouse. Gold braid put on
