the same quaint and daring mixtures of very bright flowers that are seen on Minton and old-fashioned simple Worcestershire china. Most of these English and French calicoes are woven with borders that are happily utilized in the makeup of the coun' try costume, for it is hardly the best taste to use lace and embroidery in the garnishment of simple print dress.
 From our own looms they are turn. ing out the 1oveliest cotton goods lowered over in bold brocade and cretonne designs. Furthermore, these American calicoes are treated with a rich surface finish that gives them the gloss of silk, but does not injure the simplicity and softness of the fabric
 No woman need feel any hesitancy about wearing these delightful cot ton goods. They are comparatively cheap, to be sure, but their finish ap4l colorings have given them a prestige that is being felt even in circles where cost is considered of minor importance, and many charming gowns made of them will be seen at both seashore and country resort during the summer.

Fashionable Blouses and
 Gowns Are Made of White

E VERY variety of fabric is F utilized to-day. Not only for the
 blouse, but for jacket and skirts. If not for the garment itself, then for a trimming. The favorite blouse of the season is white, and the word "shirt," in connection with them, is passe, even for the most ordinary waist, as the blouse is artistic and really of very extrayagant construc- fion, made either of white organdie or white mousseline de soie. Others are of dotted Swiss, French muslin and the soft summer silks. These are relieved with dainty narrow black or white velvet or satin ribbons. Then there is new China silk, with per- pendicular lines of open work like drawn work, with dainty inter woven design.
 The vogue for white, especially in b1ouses, has passed into the srage" stage, and everything worth noticing in this line seems to be in this color. One of these white blouses is very chic affair of white mousseline. made with clusters of three tucks and a white gold and blue Persian trimming between. The Persian trimming is to the waist line, with the, tucks to form yoke. A tucked collar, with the Persian trimming at the top. The new bishop sleeves, with tucked cuff edged with the trimming. A pointed girdle of white taffeta, with an enor- nous jeweled buckle in the back.
 Another of these dainty white blouses is of organdle. Of this the front is entirely tucked, with narrow straps crossing each other, finished with gold buttons across the front to form a yoke. Below this the organdie is in clusters of tucks and slightly bloused. A new pAiglon stock collar finishes the throat. . The sleeves are tucked at the top in clusters, with a deep bell shape at the wrist.
 Not only are practically all of the handsomer blouses of white, but

A Demand for calicoes
 Among the Fashionable.

COFT summer silks and other more
 expensive summer materials are
 not possible with every woman. To some comes the necessity for a stringent economy that will not per init the purchase or these more ex- pensive fabrics, and to such the summer print goods offer chance.
 There are thousands of women who appreciate the attractive colorings that are to De found in the figured 1oulards, the dainty organdies and French muslins, but who are denied them because of the expense attached to their purchase. It is for the bene- fit of these that I wish to point to the revivals in calico. Within the memory of the present generation there has never been such effects pro- duced as are now seen in the cali coes and other cheaper cotton goods as are now being shown. There was a time when calicoes were regarded as the summer material, and every woman wore them, but our ideas as to the desirable materials for sum- mer have expanded even more rap idly in many cases than our pocket DOOhSs anu NOA4cA WHOSc STdnOlnOln- CTS wore calico must now have silks
 But this year, the merchants tell me, there is new demand for cali coes. To meet this demand the man ufacturers have turned out some charming French prints that in appear ance are as lovely as foulards. and make up into becoming and fashion able gowns. Not only are our own looms turning out some marYels of

How does kangaroo tail soup" in- press you? You are likely soon to have it, for it has found it's way to London from Australia and promises to cross the Atlantic. Those who have acquired the taste for it pro- nounce it superior to OK tail, or the numerous connections that sail under that appendage, though usually the meat for them comes from the other end of the animal. There is no de- ception in the kangaroo tails as they are offered in the London market, for they ars for sale with the fur on. The report is that they are not making rapid progress, because the taste for them must be acquired, but when once acquired and the merit of the flavor is appreciated they are pronounced veritable luxuries.-N. r.

FASHIONS DEGREES.

Very pretty girdles are made of white glace silk or white ribbon, ap- pliqued with the new cretonne flow CTS.
 Gay little low shoes have red heels, the front part of the shoe, in which the eyelet holes for the lacings are set, being red and the lacings light drab silk.
 A pretty combination for stylish summer hat is white fancy straw trimmed with three or four shades of yellow, either in tulle or chiffon, and flowers, and black velvet bow at one side.
 Some of the handsomest long coats of silk. chiffon, and fringe, and vari- ous kinds of fine materials are trimmed with gold lace. This, if it is narrow, will probably be all of the gold, and, if wider, of the white thread. It is beautiful, effective and costly.
 Grass linen is going to be very pop ular this summer. Made over pink, it is exquisite. Mauve, Nile green, law ender and turquoise are all pretty with grass linen, but pink is the shade to bring out it's full beauty. Grass linen, py the way, looks better tucked than almost any other sum- mer fabric.

A Belt of Babies.

It will probably startle good nany persons to find, on the au- Ehority of a well-known statisticiaH, that, could the infants of year bo ranged in line, in cradles, the cradles would extend round the globe. The same writer looks at the matter in a more picturesque light. He imagines the babies be- ing carried past given point in their mothers arms, one by one, and the procession being kept up night and day until the last hour in the 12 months had passed by. A sufficient liberal rate is allowed, but even in the going past at the rate of 20 a minute, 1,2o0 an hour, during the entire year, the reviewer at his post would only have seen sixth part of the infantile host. In other words, the babe that had to be car- ried when the tramp began would be able to walk when but mere fraction of it's comrades had reached the reviewers post, and when the years supply of babies was drawing to a close there would be a rear guard, not of infants, but of romping six-year-old boys and girls Medical Counsellor.
