Directiy In front was a large Bunch OF
prairie roses. buds and foliage.
There was an arsenical green straw
with wide brim and a high, squarish
bell crown. The brim was faced with
white chiffon, shrred softly, and there
was a bakers dozen of fine black os-
trlch tips on the left side and at the
back. Around the crown was an up
standing rufTie OF spangled crepe lisse.
The ancient turban Is shown in some
OF the places. The idea is to have
large puff of tulle wound around and
lightly folded over two or three timeD,
with n jeweled algret at one side. II
reminds one of the pictures of some of
the court beauties of long ago. They
are generally spangled. Even feathers
are spangled.
There was one cunning little yellow
straw toque, no size at all. To this
were fastened three fine white spangled
ostrich tips held by a gold buckle. On
the front were two loops Of dark blue
velvet ribbon, and on the right side was
a spangled tulle drapery.
One very elegant hat though less
snowy, was made Of black tulle. that on
the brim being twisted into soft outlines
like the untwisted strands OF rope.
The bell crown was of closely shlrred
tulle, and there were two black mara
bou plumes which floated with every
breath OF air. and there was one long
paradise plume. The only note OF color
was the gilt buckle in front.
There were some very pretty English
walking hats and novelties in alpines,
which will be much affected for out OF
door sports. Indeed. the jaunty little
English walking hat is worthy first
place for all sorts OF runabouts. 1t goes
so well with Jackets and golfing capes.
In one place ] saw a cape that fairly
took my breath away. In fact, II was
part of a suit The skirt had two Dew
ey nounces, each edged with three mill
liners folds of the same stuff, which
was of olive green covert. The cape
was Of brilliant clan plaid in enormous
ly large figure, wherein red, green,
black and white mingled. The collar
was high and slashed and bound with
the covert. The hat to go with this
was of straw the exact shade of the
dress, with velvet drapery and a few
black tips. 1t was an English walking
hat.
Bicycle suits are among the prettiest
things the season has to show They
are almost entirely plain. but their cut
and finish make them very attractive.
A very neat suit has the skirt stitched
around twice and twice up the front
side seams. Fancy fly fronts close the
skirt and afford a pocket. The jacket
is short and is open. with rounded re-
vers over a regular mannish' shirt front

black tie finish It, Few ladies' now

balayeuseis made of real old point lace.
Imagine that priceless lace being used
as ''sweeper!"
The skirt fits closely around the hips,
but the train Is laid in massive folds.
The waist is draped across surplice
fashion, with two lines Of chiffon ruch-
ing. A bunch Of orange buds is placed
at the left side, artificial ones now, to be
replaced by real ones later.
The adjustment of the waist left an
open space. This Is filed in by shirr-
ing and ruChing of chiffon over white
satin. The high stock is of satin, with
a lace frill at the back. The back OF
the waist is draped richly to a short
point and is there lost under the draped
belt. The sleeves are Of the peau de
sole and have many rows OF the chiffon
ruching. The veil and wreath with this
costume are simple tulle and orange
blossoms, but 1t is whispered that one
of the brides Of the hour will wear
magnificent lace veil that was made for
nnd once graced the head Of an en-
press. May 1t bring Joy to the bride
and none OF the awful sorrow of the
original owner!
A superb gown to wear at a grand
wedding was OF silyery gray faille, the
whole nearly covered with a great,
struggling pattern made OF narrow ce-
rise velvet ribbon bordered on each side
with a very narrow shirring Of white
crepe lisse. The skirt was half train,
and all around the bottom was triple
double frill of crepe ilsse three inches
wide, with the seam directly In the CEN
ter. The waist was complex, but very
handsome, and had revers and shoulder
pieces OF cerise velvet; also upturned
cuffs at the elbows. There was a full
vest of lisse, with a large bow. The
upper part of the waist was of the
faille laid smooth, II II Is preferred.

Something About the wife OF OuI
EmbnssndOr to England.

Mrs. Joseph Choate, wife of our EN-
bassador to England, who has been shar-
ing with her distinguished husband the
woes of house hunting in London, is a
charming, dlgnified matron. She does
not look as though she had been mar
ried more than a dozen years, although
Choate. In fact, Mrs. Choate is a re-
markably young looking woman. Her
cheeks are still rosy with health, her
eyes dark and brilliant, and her hair
is only slightly tlnged with gray.
Although she has never aspired to be
social leader, Mrs. Choate will preside
gracefully over our embassadorial home
at the court of st, James-when such
home is established. The Choates al
ways lived very quietly in New York,
not because society was not ready to
receive them, but because they cared
little for society For one thing. Mr..
Choate was too Gusy making big fees.

"Lons skir. Paralysis"

A young lady suffering from paralysis

holding up her skirt, was taken to one
of the New York hospitals the other
day. She had been in the habit Of wear

with long, sweeping train. This
"long skirt paralysis should be warn

dresses for indoor wear. The paralysis
is due to holding the arm in one posi-

with which baseball players suffer and
called by them the ''glass arm. The
