members of that grand congregation of
cavalry, who, after years of ardu0us. dead

banks Of the Tennessee, preparatory to
that grand march Of 10000 mounted men
to split again that hostile country which
had been cut in two by Sherman's army

hold that the bathing skirt cut to sim

To make clear to the reader some of

a sketch is given, of two sweetly fresh
silk suits. The first of these the one
to the right hand, is a foulard showing
delicate green bubble pattern on a
cream white ground. The lace, intro
duced upon the waist, shows, through
its transparent mesh. an UNDERLYING of
green taffeta. and the yoke of white
silk and muslin is tucked with green
sewing silk. A wide, fine Yedda straw,

to fifty yards of chiffon are easily
pleated into one skirt and about a
third Of that amount into the waist
and sleeves of a properly made cos
tune. Liberty crepe and taffeta soy
euse, and silk point esprit, and mer-
cerdized English muslin, and silk null
are all delightful materials for sun
pleating. So very, very full are all
these skirts that when the wearer of
one of them moves the creases in the
thin light fabric break into a perfect
foam of crinkly widths. The proper
pleats for this season are deeper than
ever before, and the bottom edge of
the skirt ought to be finished only by
the silken selvage of the wide, thin
material. Stout women, who yearn
after the grace of the sun
pleated fulness, have black creped
chiffon masses dropped over white
silk skirts that are covered with
two thicknesses each of black net.
Daring Toilets for Salt Baths.
Ever gayer and more daring grow
the bathing dresses. Double skirts

beaches. A white serge dress set off

semble a court coat of the time of
Louis XIV. A pair of very modern
sporting suits are sketched to indicate
the proper lines on which to build an
outdoor play dress. The skirts of both
examples show an amount of trim

have excited scorn and derision; new

The terrible volcanic eruptions which

spite of our advanced scientific knowl-

what is going on under our feet, and
are still as unable to forecast with any

for children's evening dress, so far as
conclusions can be drawn from tour
of a big shop devoted to Juvenile dress
and also from one of the first of the
young peoples parties. Rich mothers
show a regrettabIe tendency to put
their small boys and girls into expen-
sive white silk coats as well as gowns
and suits of an evening or afternoon,
when any festivity is afoot, and every
girl is wen aware from her cradle up
of the uses of lace. Simple valenciennes
edging and insertions used to be re-
garded as amply magnificent for any
little miss; heavier lace application
now adorn the froeks worn from two
years and up. ometimes the lace is
real, oftener ii is a handsome and
equally satisfactory imitation, such as
that used on the white china silk frock
sketched as suited for a girl of or
10 years. White imitation Irish lace
