self, has Il foundation skirt Of white taft
feta with the tiniest frill of chiffon around
the foot. The skirt is cut very close and
is fitted all the way to the knees.
A skirt of old-fashioned Cluny lace falls
over this foundation skirt; and over this
skirt there is another of Cluny lace fall
ing to the knees; both of these skirts are
edged with the narrOWest ruche of white
chiffon.
70 avoid so many skirts the double
skirt is made in different ways. One of
the SWEETEST dressmaking establishments
of Paris showed me a gown just built for
! a member OF the Empress Eugenie's set,
the most exclusive coterie in Paris. The
skirt began with a foundation of black
! taheta. Over the foundation was set a
flOunce of white Renaissance lace as deep
as the knees. At the waist was sewed an
| other fiounce of the same lace, the flounce
being just long enough to fall over the
other and cover the top. This rave all the

| NEW PARASOLS.
While this is not a chapter on skirts, it
is q fact that the summer skirt occupies
such an important place in the world thai
no fashion letter is complete or half way
complete without mention of 1t.
Yet there are other things, parasols for
instance. lave you seen the new para
| soils made of rose and white striped satin?
! The handle has a big artificial rose stick
/ ing from the end. There are parasols in
purple and white stripes with punches of
violets sticking from the knob. And then
there are countless parasols covered with
narrow ruchings of chiffon, put on one
touching the other so as to cover the
parasol. The very newest vagary, how
ever, is the parasol made of the Persian
squares which come for fancy bodices.
A neat little seamstress goes from
house to house dressing up last summers
parasols. She takes a hopeless black one
and covers it with narrow ruchings OF
white chiffon, or of black tulle! or she
wells it in pink rufles which lie over it In
pretty waves when it is raised. This lit
tie genius takes the spots out of white
umbrellas and stripes them with narrow
purple satin ribbon and attaches violets
to the ferule and to the handle. She takes
the little figured ones of last year and
makes them elegant with small appliques
of lace. and in the center of each appli-
que she sews a little rhinestone ornament
pailllette or sequin.

when used to protect vessels at sea, and
by attaching it to buoys when used to
protect lighthouses, hydraulic works In

Baron d'Alessandro bases the idea of
his invention upon the principle that in
covering the surface of the sea with a
thin light, flexible and floating body of
whatever nature the part covered forms
a crust under which the molecules of
the imprisoned mass of water cannot
move in the same manner as the sur
rounding body of uncovered water. the
result being that even the most violent
waves, upon reaching the edge of the

breaking or destroying it, will pass under
it as if there We're a fall or difference
