FASHION LETTER.
Lady Modish on Widows Weeds.
Lady Modish in Town Topics.

Lady Modish ON Widows Weeds.
One of my most intimate friends re.
Gently lost her hubsnd, and have had
the privilege Of inspecting her elaborate
mourning outfit.
1t is wonderful how beautiful these
sombre garments can be made, and how
becoming they are to most women.
My friends outfit consists OF mum.
Der of gowrs Of various materials,
dozen or more hats and bonnets, many
boxes of dull suede gloves and kerchiefs.
six elegant silk petticoats, most Of them
with hand embroidered trimmings.
scores of pretty bodices and blouses,
besides many other charming things.
The gown like best in all the array is
q Princesse, made Of fine black cork.
screw cloth, much like that which is
used for mems suits. only finer in quail
ity. The advantage Of this material Is
that it can never pull or stretch out Of
shape. and therefore always looks we'll.
The lines Of this gown are simply per-
lection. A lovely girdle Of heavy creps
is let in at the waist, pointed back and
front, above and below the waist line. to
the depth Of perhaps four or FIVE inches.
The crepe is laid in tiny folds, and forms
the chief gsrniture for the entire cos
tune.
Strips Of it are placed at intervals
about the bottom Of the gown, and
these are fastened at each end with
small cIoth-covered buttone, three in a
row.
The sleeve shows fine clusters of
tucks leo fine as to look almost like lit
tie cordings) and e finished at the wrist
with fold Of the crepe tightly but
toned. 1t is quite full from the elbow
down.
Another deep point Of the Crepe trims
the bodice at the throat. the bottom of
this point almost touching the top Of
the one at the waist. The effect is
charming, and. rs it was made by an ex.
cellent tailor. the fit is all that could be
desired. The collar was trimmed with
the small buttons in clusters, and fitted
snugly under the back hair.
None Of her gowns showed the pointed
collars, but several showed the tendency
toward the Princesse effects.
One especially attractive was OF We.
netian cloth, with a wonderful foot flare
to the Princesse skirt. This was effect
ed by a founce much tucked, and
joined to the main skirt by wide hem.
stitching.
A hemstitched skirt of dull black tat
feta was worn with this, and a small,
plain coat.
The newest skirt of all in this ward.
robe was tight fitting to the knees and
from there full spreading.
The material for this was the finest
ladies' cloth. There we're eight bands
Of heavy stitched taffeta extending from
the waist line to the knee in front, and
holding the skirt tight about the figure.
From here it flsred, and the back, which
was full, showed generous train,
though not enough to be announcement.
An Empire coat went with this. and,
while do not like this fashion, it is
surely heralded, and will no doubt be all
the rage before the season is ended.
This coat was not long in front, but
had the tabs in the back much widened
and garnished with taffeta bands to
match the skirt. The sleeves were plain,
with the regulation Empire cuff, we'll
pointed, turned back from the hand.
