SLEEVES AND Ribbons.


! The OJd-inshioncd brooch Again
Coming Into Piny.
There is constant effort 20 get away
from the pun at the top OF the sleeve and
all "Reminiscences OF the gigol form. Many
sleeves are quito flat at the top, and they
no longer look queer. y jockey extends OUT
from the blouse. and quite satisues the
eve Some times ru(tle or rosette OF
labot ana prcuy effect. The jockey may
be slashed through the middle To allow tho
lace TO push through. AT other times, IN
stend OF n Jockey. mere ~ a cluster OF Tul-
fles over the arm hole They are bound
with velvet. with a Wire in the velvet and
so art made 10 stano out with a ntte Rtlil-
ness. But n should bo added that these
novelties are principally reserved for SIX
and cotton gowns, and that wool and other
out OF door gowns have the sleeve WIN
the usual pun, made very small aud as
simple as possible.
II looks now though the old aud the
natural method Of closing the bodice at tine
front OF the neck would come back into
fashion. The collar has run UP 20 high Thar
there is no longer possibility and can
scarcely be prctense OF II fastening at
the back. Th- bow 30 long worn behind
has disappeared and little by little the
front begins to be marked. some OF the
dressmakera finish silk and cotton gowns
with how at the front OF the neck. or
with an oXldized brooch to match the
buckls at the belt Linen collara with u
tic in front nave been worn for some lime,
and tulle bows have been spoken OF above.
II VIII soon be Time to take out from jewel
boxes the breastpins that have lain idle 50
long And this return to what was once q
matter Of course has all the eject of u
brand new fausle.
AS is usual In summer, ribbons have
taken ON considerable Importance. The
great novelty is transparencics. on a
tU a.
stripes OF green. rose. blue satin, In widths
II from hair line TO a half inch, and
when this ribbon IS gathered. or rutfled or
Topped In bows. tho foundation disappears
against the gown and the colored banda
stay airily Ia place without any visible gup-
port.
These transparent ribbons are used
equally 10 trim evening gowns Of gauze and
tullo. The Idea Is adapted also to cottoDs
and foulards by trimming the rufflts of
these materials with parallel rows OF mar
row ribbon. Thus black foulard with d
pattern in rose has ruifles striped with |
rose ribbon.
Eeru batiste ribbons striped with satin |
in color are used to trim gowns OF ecru !
batste. The ribbon and the ground being |
alike the stripes are thrown up in relief. |
The same ccru ribbon IL used 10 trim |
gowns of silk, the silk being the same color |
rs the stripes. Both these effects arc novel |
anu are HpVN' ~ mp1el IN Hn |
old rose taffeta. trimmed with eeru ribbon, |
striped with rose. Overlapping knife plait- |
ed rufflss Of the ribbon trim the skirt. aud |
there is blouse OF batiste. striped round |
with the ribbon under bolero OF the SILK. |
The blouse falls low oyer the taffela belt |
in front. and the belt rises high behind tho |
pass under the boleTo. a plating Of the
ribbon stands round the back Of The neck,
inside the high collar Of the bolero.

lots and silk selyedge are provided TO trim
,rgandie gowns. These are best suited TO
Young girls and childreU IN whose dress
