In It's beauty of stitching. the tailor
made gown still reigns alone and SUI
preme. S~titchings are numerous and
complicated and are put on In AL sorts
Of ways. Stitching has become a pro-
fession, or rather q regular occupation;
and there are seamstresses who devotel
all their time to 1t. The abandonment
tailor gowns are given into their hands
and, with careful fingers, they guide the
Machine along the outlines of the seams
in a way that marks the tailor-made
dress and gives 1t q distinction OF It's
own. i
Nor are the seams the only parts that
are stitched. The tailOr-made dresses
are decorated along the hem with nand-
some flowers in stitched designs. Inc
most expert stitchers use the natural
colors, and the result is a bofderatof
flowers in stitched design. along the hem
of the skirt, and upon the waist. Heavy
silk is used for stitching, but no attempt
is made at embroidery or other fancy
stitch. A rapid stitcher will complete q
tailor-made gown in three days, and the
result will be extremely neat.

THE SINGLE ROSE.
The single rose has appeared as a
fashionable trimming. Many are the
hats of al colored and corn colored
straw, and of straw in it's natural shades
that are trimmed with tulle, put around
the crown in the form of a big soft roll
that completely hides the crown. At one
side there is a bid nodding rose of pink
OF red or white standing high upon its
stalk with a leaf or two,
The rose is used upon the back Of the
stock and it is also seen upon the belt
and on the parasol. Four large hand
some roses of silk or velvet are used for
his purpose, and often you will find
them scented with a powder which is
concealed in their stalk.
Large bows Of new ribbon are used In
connection with these roses. The ribbon
is of satin, brocaded with velvet flowers
in their natural colors. In silk ribbons
you see flowers of cashmere set in and
very natural they look with their dull
hues; all ribbons are deliberately bro
caded and there are few materials that
are not mingled in with the silk and
satin groundwork of the ribbon.
A LACE NOVELTY.
Another novelty Of the season is the
lace braid which is used for trimming
many waists. 1t looks like lace, but is
much coarser and is generally in the
form Of an insertion. 1t comes in cotton
and silk of all colors. 1t is Of renais-
sance pattern and is used for sewing
upon the waist between rows of tucks
This 1ann braid reminds VOll- in some
patterns, a little of the o~ld-fashioneG
torchon, which in its day enjoyed such q
popularity.
Among the transparent materials thai
are new this season is a crash so coarse
! that the lining is visible. Threads of thu
crash are drawn and ribbons rul
through. In his way a neat shirring i:
made for the yoke. Ecrue colored crash
. over a lining of pink, is very pretty, es

stock of pink and an ecrue ha with {

! The functions Of pink have been in,

; shades. Many of these have familial

Better choose the fair shades, eve1

The plain colors will not rule this fall
it is to be a brocade season.; and tn
brocades will cunningly mingle velve
