year and day. During that time
Grape cloth or some dull material much
betrmmed with Grape is the orthodox
wear, with the muslin collar and cuffs
and Widows cap with long ends. The
regulation bonnet is not so generally
adhered TO. and the French style Of the
long, sweeping, graceful veil, either
thrown back or over the face, seems to
be obtaining favor. In France quite
young girls wear these long. floating
wells, or, perhaps, streamers would be
better word, for they usually fall
from the back Of the hat 10 below the

more correct for half mourning. The
same applies TO Jet; the dull kind to

The fashion Of laoing or trelllswork

Of dresses is adaptable to our present
purpose. In the evening It is an ad-
mlrable contrast to dress Of white
chiffon or silk or crape-white Grape is a
lovely substance-and black fringe over
a white background fulflls the highest
requirements OF la mode. Indeed at
present black and white is so exceed

ing and the plaintiffs brought reple-
