 The charming possibilities of lace are brought ont this season with all the variations imaginable, and any woman can hardly be approached if she appears in an entire lace gown. Fashion is certainly capricious, but this one Cf her permanent hobbies is becoming to all women, more so than any other one thing. At present lace gown is considered the height of elegance. and it will hold this domi- nant position fer some time in the fem mine fancy. It gives any gown the refinement and crOwning charm if well chosen. There are SO many pretty limitations Of the real lace. and the eff feet is nearly the same. The real is, Of course, indispensable, but the ini- tations are universally used. Lace nehus, blodses, bolerOs are leading features this season. The blCuses and also gowns are made without things, and different cclOred slips may be worn under them. A most convenient way to make the latter is out of tai feta or satin, with the whalebones in cased so as to make only under arm seams in the bodices of lace. The most effective in satin is a white slip with a bGdice of cream lace. The black and cream lace gowns are much 5n favor. but Q late novelty which has Fe- ceived much attention and 3dmira3l0n is something in a beaver color. ms is very handsome in guipuTe CyeF ta1- fsta in the same color. Also the gull pure in a pale shade of gray. finished with glace silk bands is scynething noticeable. Fancy thin waists of ba- tiste. silk muslin add to the list CT dressy garments. One Hose pink trimmed with ecru 1age is very dainty Another has / lace yoke with the lower pErE formed of upright insertion and t7cks- Iucks running around are ncT new, but are still in, as they are yefy becoming to q slender person.
