A certain little woman of our town, who
looks well both on parade and in off-duty
hours. was building herself one of those
marvellous French bows yesterday when a
friend ran in for morning call.
The call was an informal one, and that
didn't interrupt the needle work.
The friend watched the nimble fingers
dart in and under, over and above, around
and about the filmy material. Then she
said wonderingly:
My dear, what a perfect knack you have
for anything like that. Some women are
born to it. It's such a gift. Everything I
put my fingers on / botch. I'd give the
world to be able to do it as you do
The clever woman laughed. You're only
the one hundred and ninety-ninth person
who has said that. It's a source of endless
delight to me-
But why? In the name of all that's mys-
terious?"
Because in the beginning of the begin
ming / haven't a bit of 'knack' that
way"
What? Why, my dear, just look at the

turns and twists and the rest of it.

The old term of ready made has now
become synonym for much that is taste
full, graceful and desirable, at least among
the handsome models offered by our leading
merchants and importers. In the competi-
ton for public favor there has been brought
to bear on the making of modern garments
the very best talent and experience in de-
signing and finishing tailor work, and the
most refined taste and scrupulous care in
the selection of patterns, materials and
trimmings, and nine-tenths of the ready
made garments offered at our best houses
are now copied directly from very high
priced models sent from Paris and London
Some of the blouses and other fancy
waists are made with double fronts, like
TWO DlOuSeS, one cut down in a round or
square shape In the neck, and added to this
the outer one is very often Slashed in
places, showing glinpSes of the waist be-
meath. which is always made of some pretty
contrasting material. Just at the moment
dark green blue brown, red or black cloth
blouses are being made, with underblouses
of shepherds check silk or brilliant Roman
striped or plaided taffetas.
There is no radical change in the appear
ance of the summer shirt waist for the sea-
son of 1898, although there are numberless
pretty variations in the details of its Jokes,
sleeves and the adjustments of the fulness
on mt the lower portions of the garment;
skirts tucked. rufled, -frilled, ruched. fin
tsbed with Spanish lounces, overskirts,
panels, killings, accordion pleatings, folds
ard insertions of lace or embroidery, etc.
but the most novel will be the costumes
made with open-fronted redingotes and
pr1ncesse dresses cut down low on the neck
and worn with fancy guimpes of every de-
Scription.
Among French models of some very ex-
pensive summer toilets recently opened to
view was a simply charming and charming
~ simple dress for youthful wearer,
formed of a white dotted Swiss muslin of
e&quisitely fine texture, decorated on skirt
and round waist with shirrings, lingerie
tucks and very Deautiful sprays of guipure
lace en- applique. very handsome gown in
black point desprit net was similarly made
and trimmed. Everything about both of
these gowns was most attractive save the
price. The effect of the applique sprays
upon the airy dotted textiles was exceeding
~ novel and artistic A gown of this de-
seription would not by any means be out
of the reach of the average purse in the
case, for instance, of woman wishing one
very elegant transport dress for special
wear this summer The dress fabrics de-
scTibed are neither of them exorbitant in
price ana lace sprays, sprigs and applique
bands can now be purchased at all the i'm
porting houses in the city, and. like ali rich,
enective garnitures, a little goes a great
way.

There was a spoon for dry mustard and

of arranging the trimmings upon the hat
