Horses-Fuly 900 head OF horses and mules
arrived for the regular sale OF the Bai1-sakes
time last week and a little less than 800 the
corresponding time a year ago. Practically all
kinds were represented in the arrivals, but,
of course, there was a small proportion OF high
class drivers and cOach horses, that class being
held back for the special sales to occur soon.
Good business chunks, workers and draft horses
predominated in the consignments. There Is a
continued good attendance OF buyers, the de-
mand for choice stock rather active, and
strong prices realized for that class. On
account OF a falling of in the demand from
Southern points the smaller horses did not sell
quite good they have recently. There was
any kind. and few horses in their class were
good enough to sell around s175s but several
brought s135m1J0, but the bulk OF the supply is
going at s75Ql25. and smaller horses from s25
10 ST.

Pretty Homemade Collars.

The turnover embroidered collars which
are now so much I'm vogue may be made at
home for very much less than their market
price. out of embroidered handkerchief
The borders. cut from opposite sides of the
handkerchief only require to be mounted
on cambria bands, to go inside the neck
band of the dress, and there they are, two
as pretty and dainty collars you could
buy. The third collar is made by joining
out the remaining edges of the embroidery
handkerchief; but 1t need not look patch
ed if little care be taken. One piece is
used to form the main part OF the collar.
the other is cut and makes the two corners.
which must be Joined to it on the slant and
at such an angle as enables you to get
collar of the desired length. Perhaps you
will be inclined to think the third collar IS
an impossibility, but it really only calls for
a little ingenuity in the matter of putting
on the corners, as you will soon find when
you take the work in hand.
Some clever girls make pretty square
sailor collars from embroidered handker-
chiefs. In that case all four corners of the
handkerchief are left intact, and from one
side a piece like an inverted U is cut for
the neck. If you are puzzled at this de-
scription. take a sailor collar and lay 1t out
fiat. and you will then easily see how to cut
your handkerchief.

The Mohair Costume.

Mohair gowns are now to be seen In every
color, and of many different textures. SO
that 1t seems as though for every occasion
a mohair gown is suitable First and fore
most. for a travelling gown a mohair In
most desirable. as the material sheds the
dust. does not easily get tumbled, and. Ina
fact will stand lot Of hard wear without
looking shabby. and a good brushing on
and spongfng make 1T look like new. Black
or blue In dark shades are the smartest col
ors to choose, and a coat is far better than
a waist, for the material even in the softest
weaves is too harsh to be easily made to
fit well. But a long coat, with skirt to
match and a waist of the same color, but
different material, makes a smart costume.

thin fabrics. but are too heavy in cloth.
Cloth skirts are full in the back and smooth

PARIS. August 8, 1903.
Every one here Is raving over the simple
ity of the embroidered linen and wolfe
gowns. These are deservedly popular for
morning wear. the skirts just clearing the
ground. The trotteuse skirt. which Is real
ly extremely unbecoming. is reserved for
athletic exercises in the country. Some of
these linen gowns have fiat embroidered
hats to match. Red and white mixtures are
popular. and green and white looks delight
fully cool on hot mornings. Morning hats
should accompany all these dresses, reserv-
ing the picture hats for fete or carriage
wear. We In Paris do not care to trail
around In the morning with lace frocks and
picture hats. as a good many English
women here do. 1t is not considered chic.
White pongee, trimmed with lace, makes
beautiful afternoon gown. Long and
short coats, children's suits and Jackets are
also most satisfactory in this material, as
It washes like muslin. White pongee lends
itself to so many different styles that il en-
joys well-earned popularity without being
common. 1t is extremely suitable for sun
burst effects, as 1t falls naturally into just
the folds necessary to this plating. 1t can
be combined with all kinds of heavy lace
with good results, or in tucks with feather
stitching. pOngee petticoat is most serv-
iceable for wear with light summer gowns
and Il washes nicely.
Our afternoon and reception toilets are
perfect wonders. both in extravaganza of
cost and beauty. Irish lace and fine guipure
trim the crepe de chine and mousseline de
sole gowns. Black chantilly. jet and silver
paillettes and beautiful embroideries are ex-

Velvet in Millinery.
From the Millinery Trade Review.


The part assigned to velvet this year is
one of the highest Importance. Velvet COW
cred hats are In large majority among
the new models prepared by the high-class
trade. and the demand for this material
on all sides is already much above the aver
age.
From the orders issued thus literally 1t
is evident that a pleasing variety in color
will prevail. Velvet Is asked for in pretty
nearly all the colors Included in the winter
list. Nevertheless. 1t is the medium, and
darker shades of the positive colors and
the light and medium shades Of the brown
and neutrals that have the advantage. This
is explained by the fact that 1t Is these
shades to which preference will be given
for the covering Of shapes A great deal
will also be done in quite light velvet par
ucularly cream. very pale blue and white,
not as covering for the outside Of hats.
but as facing and trimming for the
underside of brims.

For a Bridesmaid
For the bridesmaid there has appeared
a delightful new material, double chiffon.
a compromise between the very transparent
and the Opaque something which Is quite
as suitable for day wear as evening. Double

tory material applied with Irish and gui-
pure and 1 have since seen it with almost
every other kind of lace on the list Very
few know that chiffon both single and
double, washes nicely Single chiffon, when
washed and pulled into shape without iron
ing, looks quite like the double. l once saw
a pretty cream blouse of apparently double
chiffon which, l was told, had been q
chiffon skirt.
1 saw very pretty evening frock the
other night in the always possible black
and white. 1t was of black cluny lace. Its
newness consisted in the clever use of white
chiffon on the black lace. The white chif-
fon was appliqued with black lace to finish
the decolletage. and accordion plated frills
of the chiffon on the sleeves were bordered
by very effective little double ruche con-
one. The method of arrangement of the
black and white made an uncommonly good
frock for stout person. gown OF black
net over white had design in jet and
sequins down the front and around the
bottom of the skirt The bodice was made
with a pelerine of jet and a deep pointed
collar of white embroidered mousseline.
A little cluster of white mouSseline roses
nestled just below it.
Cleaning Satins.
1 have lately seen some specially good
evening frocks, many in soft cleaning
satins in white and pale tints. pretty
brown haired woman wore frock of pale
pink satin with cloud-like arrangement
of pink tulle around the shoulders. There
were pearls about her neck and the comb
in her hair was set with diamonds and
pink coral.
The convenient lace mittens are worn
with evening dress as well as with day
costumes. For garden parties and outdoor
fetes they are Indispensable, as they per-
nit the free use of the fingers while COW
ering the hand and arm. BY securing a
good pattern they may be made very easily
of net and lace and decorated with colors
and designs to match the gown. They
possess the advantage of revealing pretty
rings and well kept finger nails. Among
the new gloves also are some beauties in
fine silk, with embroidered design in
vines on the back of the hand and around
the top of the wrist l have seen them
in pale shades of gray, drab, biscuit and
champagne. Pale olive enters into the col
oring of nearly all of these designs, with
a touch of light blue, pink and black.
