 A gown in ice green cloth was as lovely as could be imagined. The skirt was tucked as so many of the skirts are. in spite of the fact that tucking Is no longer new. and was treated so that 1t lared around the foot where the tuckings ceased. There were slashes in the skirt, and into these were let fans of a deeper green silk, long pointed fans which gave almost the effec. of a petticoat.
 The bodice consisted of bolero of ice green cloth, laid in groups of tucks, three tucks to a group. Between the groups there were bands of black applique, all sloping toward the bust. The sleeves were beled around the hands. very deep col lar turned down around the throat, some- thing like a sailor collar, and was edged with thick ruching of plaited ribbon. A bunch of the ribbon trimmed the bust. There was a vest of green silk of deeper hue, with a collar of the same. A large black toque was trimmed with wings of ribbon and with pointed bird wings.
 The shirt waist three or four years ago was easily singled out from fancy waists, but today it has been improved to such an extent that 1t Is almost impossible to tell whether you are buying fancy waist or shirt waist. In fact, they are all known as shirt waists, from the lawn to flannel and from flannel to silk. Here they are called shirt waists Americane.
 The silk waists this winter will be more elaborate than any other season. One req son for this Is that there are so many beautiful shades and such fields for good combinations that the designer cannot re- frain from tempting us with the daintiest confections in all colors. Particularly do these run the scale in the reds and the violets.
 One very handsome waist is made of a soft silk, of stripes in rose and black about a quarter of an inch wide.
 There is tucked yoke and front vest Of black silk which IS corded. The rose and black striped silk is bloused little all around the waist, and extends up in the back to form a round yoke of the black silk. In the front the same round effect is carried out but the silk terminates and leaves a space of about three inches down the front, through which the black tucked vest, which Is 8 continuation of the yoke, Is seen. It falls in blouse.
 All around the yoke and down the fronts there is trimming of heavy silk embroid- cry of roses and buds. They are of the

THE CLOTH SUITS
 OF EARLY FALL
Cashmere Is the Style Again, and So Are All the Many Cloths
 With Satin Faces.

Paris, France.-The cloth suits of early fall are marvellously pretty. When the Ex- position turned from a general exhibit into dress parade the modistes suddenly sprang to their needles, and marvels were quickly turned out in the dress-making line. Such lovely gowns never were seen as appeared here in the early part of Sep tember
 The new dress materials from which these gowns were evolved were of fine grade of cloth resembling nothing as much as cashmere. It was not close enough for ladies' cloth and by no means solid enough for broadcloth. It was called by different names in the shops but you recognized it after all as cashmere, and nothing else.
 There is a lovely new shade of blue which is called "tendre," and there is an- other which is musicians blue; the for mer is as pale as the latter is deep; the
