New Effects in China

The latest importation of china show
almost exclusively the border effects.
Flower decorations come in conven-
tional wreaths and set forms The new
dinner sets are showing the Dresden
pattern. The French china in gold or
gold and green trimming, and white
plates with wide borders are much
sought. Old fashioned china baskets
with quaint handles are used for olives,
salted nuts and relishes. Cheaper
novelties are French plates with
scenes, jokes and reading which Will
do for French luncheons or Bohemian
affairs. These cost but twenty-five
cents. 1t is surprising how much
china is displayed this summer from
the far North. In one shop there were
noted china from Russia, Finland,
Scandinavia, Denmark and Lapland.
The Vikings furnish boat-shaped bowls
with eagle heads, coarse pottery in
shapes I'm plain reds and green's. the
gourd furnishing -the motif for these
odd vessels. Sweden sends under

Skirted Goats
[speeIal correspondcnee.1


New York, Sept. /. ~ We need not
be alarmed about the disappearance of
the shirt waist, for it is not to be dis
carded altogether. though the szirted
coats are going to give it what the
French call bad quarter Of an hour.
The shape is a little more trim and
close and the materials rather warmer,
but yet we find many of the cottons
in the form of heavy vestings and
several pretty mercerized goods, also
fine dannels mostly in self colors,
though some are figured. bedford cord,
albatross and many weights in crepe
de chine, besides several weaves Of fine
woolen voiles. These are mostly in
black, with some very tiny cord or in
run ribbon of a bright color just to
take away the mourning look.
Taffeta and all the soft silks, besides
many of the heavy ones, are seen, each
made up in a manner to show the ma
terial to its best advantage more than
to exploit a-quantiry of fine work Still
some Of the thin silks, especially when
they are for .'young persons,Y are con
structed With the usual number of fine
and close tucks. oyerlaid with lace in
many ways, each little different from
all the others. The bishop sleeve is
the accepted style Tor all shirt waists,
but even this allows for many varia-
tions.
One extremely pleasing style is shown
in a fine Scotch flannel gray in general
tone, with narrow red and green after
nate lengthwise stripes. The sleeves
are plain bishep.witlr II the striped .por-
ton as cuff. The collar is arranged the
same way, SO that the stripes become
ornamentale There Is a stole shaped
collar which is made of gray armure
silk embroidered aloiig an edges in soft
green and reds, with the tiniest bit Of
gold thread showing at times. This
waist is so very pretty that it can be
developed inrahmost any kind of mate
rial. always seeing that the collar is in
proper colors and material ..
