In applications every imaginable rea-

one case n whole company made applica-

one or two, and the papers came in

that Otis would have a stroke OF apoploXy

front bordered with braid. Under this was worn shirt of white lawn, perfectly plain except for hemstitching upon the cuffs and down the front.
 An extremely neat dress was of blower gray with skirt and waist to match. The skirt was trimmed with black and white cashemire in check design, put on in a deep band around the foot of the skirt. Above the band were three rows of black stitching. The 1apels were Of the checked cachemire but the panier trimming and the waist trimming were of stitching. s
 THE POPULAR CYCLING HAT.
 The popular outing hat continues to be the sailor, although there has been a vig- orous effort to replace it with the Tam OShanter the beef-eater and the pudding bag. But the sailor is so universally be- coming and is so easily obtained that it will hold sway for another summer. The fashionable sailor of the season has tall crown and a broad brim. It is a larger hat than last year. It has become quite fad to trim it with band of ribbon to match the belt or the skirt or the vest. Sailor bands are sold for this purpose and are easily slipped over the crown. They are secured in place with tiny ornament which holds the band fast.
 White, gray and tan canvas low shoes are worn upon the wheel, the boots being seldom seen. Boots now come of ordinary height with soft tops and pliable soles, but even these are not as popular as the low shoes. which are so cool and becoming to the feet. Black stockings are worn, and many riders choose the open work stock

And how attractive they are, these piques and ducks and canvasses, and the heavy cambrics! And they are all used for bicycle suits.
 AT THE CYCLER'S PARADISE.
 At the Cycler's Paradise in the suburbs had the pleasure of seeing the other day, many parties of pretty bicyclists who had ridden out from Paris for late afternoon jaunt. They were dressed in some of the most fetching combinations of the new wash fabrics.
 SOne of them wore a pique, the material which, though not new in name, is actually new in kind; for pique comes this year thinner and better adapted to summer dresses. This bicycle dress was of coral pink pique with skirt trimmed with bands of white braid in the popular style which stimulates an overdress The skirt, which was a sheath tight around the hips, f1ared a little around the foot and wes quite long. It was cut in the back to fit over the seat
 Bicycle dresses are worn quite long this season, and many women combine utility and beauty in quite marvellous way mak- ing one dress go for several purposes.
 A cycle costume which was worn out to the Paradise that afternoon was of pale forest green duck. The skirt was trimmed with bands of white braid, put on in rows up and down the skirt, each one of the braids being dotted with small pearl but tons which glistened in the sunlight. The
