American woman Of today cannot. These
sofas look very much like shaved French
poodles. with their squat bodies and thin
little legs. The legs on the Louis XIV style
are usually straight. and those of the Louis
XVI usually curved, which is one way. al

THE NEW BRAIDS.
Some of the Latest Styles for Summe r
Millinery.

From the Millinery Trade Review.
The opening season promises to be prof
liable enc for the dealers in straw.
BY the time the spring is here so much
will have been done in gossamer hats and
toques that straw will naturally assert 1t
self the greater novelty. For quite
dressy millinery, however. it will have a
formidable rival in horsehair.
There is very considerable demand both
for blocked shapes made of fine plain crino-
line braids and for twill haircloth to he
converted into toques. Warehousemen are
also providing milliners with semi-blocked
shapes, such as were made this season in
felt shaped for use so far as the crown
and part of the brim are concerned, but
with the outer portion of the latter left
oft so that 1t may be draped according to
her fancy. These appear both In fine
woven straw and hair.
Setting those novelties aside, the demand
Is chiefly for straw braidS of the coarser
order, and for shapes made of these. Even
when ready-made shapes are chosen by the
nilliner they often entail the addition OF
braids. applied in the form of trimming in
rouleaux on the brim, rosettes. etc. The
rosettes are composed of one or more cir
cular arrangements of straw. full enough
on their edges to wave slightly. Several
such rosettes will be placed on one side of
a toque or against the upturned brim of
are also used in the building up of capotes.
Sometimes a double or triple rosette will
take the place of crown.
Straw and crino shapes and bratdS are
mostly required in light colors, among
which the pastel shades are largely repre-
sented, as those will certainly hold first
rank throughout the spring. although. as
have already Informed you, there is some
likelihood of brighter tfnts taking their
place later en-.
This is borne out by the choice made by
the milliners first in the field, for while the
majority Of their models exhibit pastel
tints only, or such tnts combined with
deep, rich hues, for others the shades
chosen are of the secondary order on the
list, not quite light, but still rather
tame. whereas for others again Ga very de-
cided minority, it is true) one at least Of
the colors is decidedly bright. although not
exceeding the medium in depth.
Where deep. rich hues are combined with
pastel tints they added in the shape of
trimming generally flowers, the straw be-
ing almost Invariably of the latter. Indeed,

and well sugared. Then put on the other
half. brown part up. Butter this well and
cover thickly with the rest of the straw

hold the berries in place and make the
cake look better. Eat the cake while

The skirts of the summer gowns are most
important. They must be we'll made and
well hung and in no way Interfere with a
long slender effect, and yet they must be
tucked and pleated-a combination most
difficult to obtain One of the newest
gowns has box-pleated skirt, but the
box pleats are put quite far apart and are
graduated in width, narrower at the belt
than at the hem, and arranged with a
blank panel between each pleat. These
panels are either entirely covered with
lace or embroidery or have bands of the
lace or embroidery across them and put
on to give the effect of a lace-trimmed
underskirt with a peated overskirt. The
same idea Is carried out by substituting
for the pleats fiat bands of the material
that are stitched down to the underskirt
or are lined with silk, fastened half way
down the skirt and then caught at the
end with three gilt buttons When this
style OF skirt is used, the same idea MUST
De repeated in the waist, and the bands on
the waist must exactly match in size the
upper part of the bands on the skirt-this
makes the waist look much smaller and is
always more becoming.
