on some of the latest mats are lear
fully and wonderfully made of black
and colored velvets. There is vari-
! ETY., too, in the counterfeit fruit de-
partment, and the black cherries and
grapes are really quite a success
not as true representations of their
kind, perhaps, but as giving striking
effects with green leaves on the cream
straw hats with a stylish bow of
black velvet ribbon or cream lace and
buckle, says the New York Sun.
Bows in the hair have become SO
common that they are considered out
of style by the ultra smart. And for
evening dress, Il wreath of leaves,
either green, silver and gold in color,
or in the gray faded tints of violet
| and red, are worn instead. Young
girls wear wreath of sInall flow
ers or one single real rose.
One of the pretty new fringes is
made of satin cords black. white or
colored, combined in some instances
with loops of taffeta ribbon.
A fashionable garment which con-
stitutes part of racing costume is
q military looking coat reaching to
| the knees. The first Napoleons coat
is the model from which it evolved,
and while there is not much in a
name when it is applied to fashion,
the premier Consul" coat has some
significance. 1t is fashioned in white
cloth. if you like. fashioned with
gold buttons. and the unique feature
is the sash of soft white crepe with
bullion fringed ends. This is rather
short, of course. Then there is a
! crepe. wide turned-down collar. and
the new sleeve turned back in cuff
over linen lawn undersleeves. Rows
of stitchings finish all the edges.
There is simply no limit to the ex-
traragant productions OF the season
in the way of long coats. These are
rarely needed in warm weather. but
when they are made of lace with no
lining. they are distinctly q summer
garment. Thicker materials, like
cloth and silk are made up without
some and as means of adding to
the elegant gown an up-to-date ap-
pearance, they are unequaled. Even
the dust cloalks made of linen look
attractive, they are made with 80
! much style. Some have empire waists
! and long tucked breadths below, and
| are finished with handsome heavy
! lace of the same ecru color covering
! the upper portion in bolero form and
black stitching. Some are quite plain.

linen with white pipings.
Square hat crowns are one of the
new phases in millinery.
I Pale pink batiste makes charming
gown for young girl Jnst coming
into her teens. Tuck the skirt all
around the hips in vertical lines to
within nine inches of the hem, which
is cut in scallops and finished with
narrow lace. A straight-gathered
ruffle is added below or rather at
tached underneath the scallops. and
is also finished with lace. The bodice,
tucked down IN the form of pointed
yoke back and front, is tucked again
two or three inches deep around the
waist, improving the figure, and the
belt is of tucked lawn with two rows
of narrow black velvet ribbon sewn a
little way from the edge.
Ribbons decorated generously with
gold thread are used for corselet
belts. rcvers and collars.

of lingerie ribbon and bands of the
organdie dotted over with French
knots. The edges are joined with an
open-work stitch. Another pretty use
for French knots in white is on mar

The strictly severe sailor hat is not
very much in favor this season, and
if we had always followed French
taste in this particular, it never
: would have tlourished to any such eX
tent rs it has. 1t is suitable only fol
young girls, declied in outing garb

women who have passed the four cor
