that the all-white have for the moment
the leading place in favor.

Among these same cloth gowns wac
an exceedingly attractive one of pale
yellow. TIE entire shirt and waist were
in bayadere tucks, over which fell fat
bands Of the material fastened on the
skirt quite near the foot. with three
silver buttons where each strap stopped.
and with a shoulder cape of the plain
cloth fastened to the waist with the
silver buttons again.
There are entire gowns OF lace, white
or black. Just here Is may be said that
the black lace gown is becoming more
and more popular all the time, and is
made of the most expensive quality oil
chantilly, with a black lace hat to
match. enlivened only by a spray OF
yellow flowers at the side. making a
note OF contrast that is most attractive
among all the light costumes.
Light-colored mohair gowns are very
smart this season. and. indeed, are
rather smarter than the white They
and the pongee are the best In the light

mohair or pongee is worn silk waist

possible the color of the material of the
costume. Made simply as are the coat
and skirt, the only trimming is in the
stock collar and the pointed yoke of
lace OF embroidered linen and the turn
ed-oyer collar and cuffs.
The changeable silk taffetas are also
made in this style, but are worn more
by older women. There is one shade of
gun metal that is very good, exceedingly
hard to get. and that is very attractive
for this sort of costume, but has the OBJ
jecticn of not being always becoming. IL
which case either white or black must
be introduced into the trimming TO
break the rather dull monotony of ii.

FE IDSUMMER bargains are by TO
M means confined TO the dry
goods shops. They are dis
played in alluring guise in one of the
last places shoppers generally would
LOOK for them. Toy shcps are so asso-
ciatcd in most peoples minds with the
idea OF Christmas that the prevailing
opinion seems 10 be that fer the rest of
the year they lead detected, empty
sort of life, lost in the memories OF
past holiday gIories or anticipating those
to como. Now. this is all big mistake.
There is no more up-to-date. alive shop,

folly to try to get along without them.
The most fascinating novelty OF tho
summer Is a small hamper OF prettily

which is regular wonder box OF toys

of tenpins. tiny trains OF cars, balls,

Some Of the hampers have skipping

carried. What a boon such a hamper
would be TO small toy lovers, and Incl

doubt that tennis grows in favor all the

short skirt, shabby waist, with sleeves

Hmerfcan Women
Wtn in Europe

4 I ENRY LABOUCHERE. the Lon
don journalist and statesman,
has been making observations
of the American woman IN England and
on the Continent of Europe and comes
to the conclusion that she has unques-
tfonably been a success in Europe. She
is generally pretty. She is clever. She
takes pains 20 please those whom she
considers worth pleasing. she has that
instinct for the class above which only
they have who belong 20 the class be-
low. and. to use an expression employed
by NJ. Taine. she always Stands with
shouldered arms and feels herself on
parade" Her affectations and the sins
which she commits against the COM
mandments OF European good manners
are overlooked because OF her American
origin, moreover because Of the favor
accorded to them by royal personages
and also because OF the exalted posi-
lions which many American women have
acquired by marriage. They are the
fashion and II is almost impossible 20
escape the influence of the fashions of
our own times. With those advantages
women have succeeded socially IN Eu-
rope?
But are they also a success as wives:
II is true that comparatively few Ameri-
can women have trailed their characters
through the divorce courts IN England
Social success Is what they aim at and
the exposure entaiIed by divorce court
proceedings might endanger this sue
cess. the more so because their social
position is not as protected as ars
women In this country. They are toll
Grant and expect their husbands TO be
tolerant. Society is the end-all OF the
life OF such an American woman. and
since she has obtained foothold in
England society has degenerated from
polite pleasure into a profession.
There is little privacy in English
society now. Dinners and dances ara
