The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1898-05-22

Women who sickle at anything except
linen can buy very cheap white hnea
collars to be thrown away after one
wearing. These hints, it must be borne
in mind, are given for the woman VINO IS
trying to economize and not Tor the one
with unlimited money.
The pelticoat for travelling deserves
chapter by itself. 1t is not of silk, OF thaI
YOU may be certain. The silk skirt IS tar
TOO fran for such a mission. 1t soils too
easily and is TOO expensive 10 replace
There are several skirts used for travel
ing skirts under light weight gowns. Ohe
is the nearsilk skirt, which is almost az
| light as silk and every whit as ehecuNe-
You cannot tell il from taffeta in certain
lights You can get nearsilk skirt in ee-
rise with two ruftles each ruttte beng
COMPOSED of three overlapping or small
rufIles for So. and you do not want TO 10
any better than that. You can make one
up even cheaper, but it will probably not
hang as wcll.
The moreen skirt is the ideal one Tor
sea voyages, as it keeps its shape Ike
hair CLOTH which il somewhat resembles
in texture. 1t is thinner than hair cloth
and less Objectionable to the touch 1t
comes in all colors, and thong not cheap,
ii has the merit of wearing forever Mo-
reen can be highly recommended for
growing girls who wear Out the hens of
| their petticoats in some ineXplicable way.
A good moreen skirt in watered black TO
resemble watered black silk can be bought
for the same price as a nearsilk, but in
the fashionable colors the mOreen skirt
comes higher
None of these substitutes for taffeta are
| lined
Taffeta, if a woman must have a silk
| skirt for travelling, is made pretty and ser
viceabie ny binding the skirt rutiies with
black velvet. This can be done TO make
the skirt prettier than before. one OF
| these taftGta skirts in Parma blue had its
| ruGles bound with narrow black velvet
| ribbon. This gave strength and stitching
! to The ruffies and was quite the prettiest
! skirt of the week. The contrast between
] the black and blue set off the hues of both
materials and made them all the more
! decorative; and the silk petticoat is moth
! ing. if not worn fOrsdecOration.
! The ideal travelling hat is a big wavy
! one with rolling wides. 1t resembles the
! Clara MOwbray hat of genera ton ago
and the falcon hat of the days of Queen
Bess. A woman looks classic in sucn a
hat no matter how plain she may be-
| They make these hats this year, in every
color of the rainbow and while you are
| buying one you may as well get it to
match your jacket.
Do you know that 1t is the very smart
| thing to have the hat match the jacket?
If you wear a thyme green coat be sure
to get a straw hat of thyme green. il
/ your jacket is beet red, that fashion
able coat color get a beet red hat. You
might as well look smart while you are
I about 1t and next summer if you must
/ wear the same hat two seasons, you can
dip your hat into five cents worth of dye,
or varnish it with your own shiny shoe
polish. But don't buy brown, or a black
hat through economy, there isn't any
thing in il.
saw a leaf brown hat the other day
trimmed with small pink flowers Leaf
brown is very near tan and the flowers
were that pretty shade of pink that sug-
| eests bridal tour with pink roses IN the
| bargain. The hat was trimmed with
| green taffeta, green chiffon and green
| leaves as a backing for the pink buds.
| The Jacket was tailor-made with very
| high standing collar, and small turn back
| front The open front was filled IN with
pink chiffon. This dream in pink and leaf
| brown was intended for a tour on land.
| If you are going yachting you must not
wear chiffon or any thin material Ihe
| first breath of sea air willis it and makes
II hang loose like a fiimsy rag. 1t IS a
sad waste of money to buy this KIND OF
a yachting gown, or one that has any
| SUGGESTION of crepe or sottness Tor the
sea.
1t is the style to be slender this year.
Did you know it? The bicycle has re-
duced an our ladies of fashion until their
hin oirth is as small as their bust meaus-
IRE is large Cycling expands the bust
and reduces the hips. 1t may make the
hands a little bigger but then the new
gloves are very pretty so that woman
does not care specially if her hands arc
a little large.
Of course YOU want 10 know the kind OF
gloves for travelling. Just at THIS minute
the proper shade is bright scarlet WITH
short tops and large buttons These are
worn with any and every costume. And
the woman of fashion looks as though she
rnioht have dipped her hands in the blood
Of her enemy before starting upon hel
travelling Journey. The amiable truth Is
thai the manufacturers have produced a
very beautiful shade of red for very con
venient price, and the woman of moderate
means can afford TO wear pretty pair OF
gloves without paying too much for them
Travelling dresses consist Of shirt was
and tweed skirt.
I saw a young woman starting for Hol
land the other day, whittier she Is COINS
to view the coronation of Queen Wfhelm
ina in August. She wore a shirt waist Of
tweed with buttons down one side to give
a double-breasted effect The material wa!

low the elbow and finished with a broad
cloth cuff. There was a suggestion o
braidng upon the waist and around tn
collar. Her skirt was thin bue serge
Her coat was a blue cloth tailor made ant
she wore a gray hat trimmed with carna
lions and one big bluebird
Dame Fashion is a little fussy this year
but she gets results that are very pretty
SO YOU need not blame her if she goes abou
A. H. fussv Wav Stockings that wer
Main are plaided; skirts that had one ruff

, than last year.
