fall. are the dates when the new styles
make their appearance. All the access
series of dress are requisite TO a fine
appearance at the race course, and no
woman is thought we'll gowned who has
not every detail of her dress correct.

receives a second glance. No matter
how expensive and elaborate the mater

if all minor details are not carried out
a much palmer gown worth only half
the price will be given the palm.
This season white gowns are more
fashionable than black or colored. and
when the colored are worn the lightest
possible shades are preferred. There is
an endless variety in the white gowns,
a wonderful variety-cloth, silk, yelling
