Charles 1. style, being very soft and
SO large that they are almost capelets
falling over the shoulders. In fact.
any collar or capelet that lends
breadth to the shoulders is the whim
of the moment.
Boleros are much in vogue, and
boast of wide collars, basques or short
tails. Furs enter into their construc-
ton largely, especially broadtail and
all black furs.
Macaroons of passementerie with
hanging drops or tassels trim the new
sacque coats, which are made in three
different lengths, i. e., very short like
bolero, three-quarter, and quite
long. They are of colored cloth, silk,
velvet, silk gauze matte, brocaded
with velvet flowers, or plain, black
glace silk. Some of the newest sacque
coats have two or three shoulder
capes; in fact, all the latest coats
have either very large collars, or else
these capelets. The new capes are
also provided with huge collars which
turn up or down at pleasure.
Regal velvet gowns are every wom-
ans dream, and the peach-like bloom
on some of the new velvets would
tempt a saint.
In headgear there are picture hats,
toques, and an endless variety of pan
ama-shaped felts, with crowns and
brims of contrasting hues. Toques
made entirely of the plumage of the
lophophore and other tropical birds,
are as lovely as they are fragile.
Shapes of silk or velvet are trimmed
with fruit, such as cherries of silver
or scarlet velvet, or velvet apples,
grapes and plums.
Boas are fat and wide, the latest
are of shot or chine silk fringed with
chinchilla or sable, with large heart
shaped muffs frilled to match. Very
picturesque stole capes are being
made in Paris. They are richly en-
broidered and trimmed with frills of
lace or deep chenille fringe.
Dresses are trimmed with bias folds
of silk of some contrasting color, over
which silk cord or bebe ribbon is
| crossed like a lacing.
| There is rumor, too vague to be
important, that we shall wear colored
leather boots; meanwhile, the bronze
shoe is now considered very smart!
| The latest colors are: poussiere or
| dust, dull, blush plum, all varieties
of Indian military and fruit reds, a
pure violet that goes by the name of
eveque, and lovely golden brown,
which is called capucine. Blues are
not very popular, except the real navy,
| and greens have the first place
amongst smart colors, grass green,
leaf and apple green, and yellowish
moss green, being the most used.

cialism. But with the west side of
State street it is different. A silk
gown or seal skin coat is rarely seen
there There the class of department
stores that sell anything from paper
of pins to threshing machine, or a
flannel nightgown for 10 cents to a
barrel of sugar, extends in one I'M
broken row, and in them the Monday
bargain reigns supreme. y
Yet another place at which Chica-
COS growing cosmopolitanism is seen
is the churches. Five years ago strik-
ingly fashionable gowns, showing
every little wrinkle called for by the
latest edict of Dame Fashion, were
the exception rather than the rule in
the well-to-do churches of. the city.
To-day they are the rule rather than
the exception.
Chicago has 666 churches, and the
enumeration of the attendance at 235
of these on recent Sunday showed
257, ADJ persons present. 1t is said that
this shows an increase in church at
tendance in the city, and the pastors
of fashionable churches have repeat
eddy reported an increase in attend
ance at their Sunday morning services.
How much does this growing cosmo-
politanism have to do with this? Pos
sibly nothing, but probably much.
The Chicago woman has not only
reached the point where she likes to
wear Acknowledgements gowns, but
she likes to show them as well, and the
church parade of Sunday morning Of
fers an opportunity.
But while one class of Chicago So
ciety is tending more and more
