hanging like an apron or stole ends far
below the waist line.
Gray governing, brown Amazon cloth,
serge and the Scotch wool chevot mixtures
are all popular goods and the percale and
gingham shirt, with their new ties appear
supreme. A word is necessary, of course,
concerning gofng gloves and hats and
shoes. Antelope and beautifully dressed
kangaroo skin are prime favorites with the
club-swinging ssterhood who wear gloves
on the links. All these, OF course, button
at the back of the wrist, are open on the
knuckles, and the palms are properly cor
rugated with little horizontal lines of white
rubber, to give the proper grip without a
slip, You can also buy very modish an
telope gloves Of just one buttons length
to wear with your fine golfng suit when
you are not playing.
Outing Hats and shoes.
The woman who looks on wears a brown
or gray came's hair felt slouch or alpine
hat trimmed very smartly with scarf of
creamy lace and one fierce eagle feather on
the crown, or the whole left side of the
crown is covered with shower of langud
necked deeply purple violets.
The really truly golfer, who makes long
drives and sharp putting strokes takes
shape of that a master of the fox hounds
wears in England, ard made of n bit of
the stuff that composes her skirt. Golfng
shoes are high or low cut as you please, and
the handsomest are made of very dark
brown leather with uppers of cloth. The
shape of a mans cIicketing shoe, having big
rubber plugs or genuine hob nails in the
prodgious sole, are almost irresistible 70
the sporting women; those who have an
eye to their looks wear brown ties with
the tops of brown cloth picked out in small
black figures.
All that is said of the golfing woman ap-
plies to the cycling sister, and many a
lady salt will steer her prov through the
| foam in her trusty golfing toggery Many
yachting dresses already under way for the
opening season, have over-dresses. That
is to say the skirt of serge or French
vigoreuX is encircled WITH diminishing
braids well up above the knee and then
over this in front drops a triangle of goods
like an extended and very pointed apron.
The coat worn with this will have sailor
collar rolling back over the shoulders and
extending down in pointed fronts well below
the waist line. Collars of rich and brilliant
silk are set on coats of the darkest blue
goods and in sharp contradiction to these
gay coats, that are not meant to fasten In
front over the yachting shirts of braided
flannel are the easy sou westcrs made for
boating wraps
All these pleasant shapes of free and easy
clothing for women are duplicated almost
exactly in white and cotton stuifs. Plques
almost as thick as board and in innumera-
BILE streakings and spottings, and dull or
bright colorings are bounl to be wen more
fashionable than ever, so also are the
checked linens and the plain ones bent on
seeing much sport and service between this
month and next October Some of the most
admirable water dresses noted, are very
nearly the most beautiful, too, are fashioned
out Of heavy navy blue or rough rider brown
linen faced with braid as hard and hairy
as hempen rope and very hi indSomc. The
braid is usually put on in one tone iarker
than the blue or brown of the linen, ana the
mcst attractive dark agate buttons arc
grouped in appropriate places.
