So much Is sadd about long coats being fashionable, and so many long coats are seen all the time, that the uninttiated in the clothes question may be given a false impression as to the prevailing fashions of thls season. Long coats worn as wraps, and the long three-quarter coat, with short skirt, are certainly very smart and immensely pop ular, but, as was the case last winter with many of the snartest gowns and In the new est models are to be seen short coats of every style imaginable Tlght-ftting loose, on simple lines and most elaborate lines, un- trimmed and very much overtrlmmed coats are seen, and. In fact in many instances they are rather on the fantastic order Then there are short jackets not made to match the skirts but to be worn with any gown, and these are classed under the head of wraps and are worn on cool days with gowns of either thin or heavy materials. In fact, never before this year has there been known such an accumulation of materials. there being apparently no fixed rule as to any two materials that can be combined in the same costume, and the rule holds good Rs regards aolors as well as materials.
 Eton and bolero jackets (bearlng, however, very little resemblance to the original de- signs of that nane) are greatly in demand and are made up for the smartest kind of wear. Apparently their principal aim Is to Disguise as much as possible the lines of the figure, but by a very clever manlpula- ton of the lines of the coat the figure s more than suggested, and a slight woman can look even slighter while a stout wom- hn Is able to disguise the fact that she may have too short a waist, too high hips and too large bust to meet the requirements of the fashionable figure of today. Many of these short jackets are a cross between the bolero and the Eton. but have one or two points in common with both. They are not apparently difficult to make. but in real ity are rather intricate. They are made lined and unlined, in lace, with the thinnest kind of Inoia silk lining, or with no lining at all, and sometimes so small that they really seem like the trimming more than the garment.
 The bolero effect is certainly fashionable again, and, after all, there are few more be- coming fashions. waist trimmed with bolero effect in front can be made soft and graceful looking with very little difficulty, and the bolero can be round or square, have long, pointed fronts or be quite short. with revers and collar, or eollarless and without any revers The sleeves may be slashed and show the full sleeve of the waist worn beneath or in themselves may be large be- low the elbow and above the elbow the full ness held down in box plaits or side plaita

that even in the height of summer woman should garb herself in dead black, not even thin material beiug allowed, has been en- tirely done away with, and now all white IS considered just as deep mourning as all black, and for a summer outfit for young widow gowns trimmed with white erape, made of white crape, hat with long Whlte crape veil, white crape parasol ana every thing to match, is immensely smart' anu De 1t added, very becoming No black and white are allowed. All black or all wnlte. Anything else Is considered incongruous and as not exhibiting proper feeling. lhe slightest touch of black on white gown in- piles a lack of respect for the dead ana the same rule applies vice versa. It might De thought that white dress trimmed with bands of black crape would indicate deep grief On the contrary, it would simply n- dicate that the wearer Is not acquainted with the outward expression of sorrow, and the same gown all white or all black would denote much greater grief and more bitter loss.
 In the matter of headgear there is more change than in anything else. The close fitting Marie Stuart bonnet, over which was pinned crape or sewing silk or nun swell ing veil, as the case might be or the means allowed with only tiny ruching of white denoting the widows cap, or all black, if mourning for any relative, was to some women immensely becoming. but to the

If in Intense sorrow. This veil can be thrown forward over the face if de- sired but, as rule. Is arranged to form weepers at the back, while the face veil of sheer net edged with crape is all sufficient. At first the veil Is very long, and Is gradually shortened according to how becoming 1t Is. until finally it is merely large face veil with streamers, but 1t Is very smart and frames the face most becomingly.

are no mourning bonuets and even when the close fitting ones are worn they are so eulivened with bows and loops and cockades of ribbon thnt there Is little of the old fash toned bonnet about them.
 To carry out i'll compete detail mourning costume considerable attention must be paid to such matters as gloves, shoes, ornaments, and, not speaking with any sarcasm, dogs. widow. or any one In deep grief, attired Il black crape seen with brown dog, Is con- sidered to be inappropriately turned out. The dog must be back, or, if white be worn. be white. However. white dogs with black bows are possible, and speaking seriously again, this carrying out of the color scheme Is most effective. The wearing of black gloves with a white gown is bad style. They must be white Nor should coored jewels be allowed. Diamonds are permissible even in deepest woe, and pearls are also allowed as first mourning, as well as with all grada- tions of 1t. Even the chatelaine watch must be black. Some of the smartest costumes have been entirely ruined by the wearing of chatelnine watch of violet enamel.
 Jet Is now so fashionable that it has helpcd immensely In making q variety as to watch chains, lorgnette chains, &c but only dull jet should be worn with the first mourning. The dull jet spangled gowns of crape gowns trimmed with jet for dinner wear are about the most becoming that woman puts on. Now that white jet has been introduced the white crape dinner gown, trimmed with white jet, Is charmingly effective, and it seems a great blessing that 1t should have beeu allowed to indicate mourning, for at first glance, to the uninitiated, 1t would hardly do so.
 Other innovations that are becoming are the clear mesh and fancy mesh face veils Time was, and not so long ago, that even with transparent face veil 1t was consd- cred requisite to have it of some unbecon- ing mesh that would darken the skin. Now whatever mesh is becoming Is allowed and some women wear dotted wells. These last, however, have not received the sanction of smart people. and the fashion may be said to be on trial. The only black allowed with white mourning Is the black stocking. This, 1t is eoEtended, is permitted on account of the fact that 1t makes the ankles look so much smaller, but white stockings with black are of course not to be thought of, any more than the white gloves with black gown. or vice versa.

sired to add as much breadth as possible to the shoulders and bust. Then the ends should be tied in a bow in front or in one loop.
 charming fad is the using of light cloths or silks for hchus and trimming them with broad bands of entre-deux either in the heavy or the light lace. The effect Is a little severe and always good, and is so markedly different from the rufded hchus as to make the fashion an exceedingly smart one
 The taffeta and chiffon wraps are the novelties of the season, quite unlike any wraps of last year and possessing most delightful Individuality. On the pictur- esque order, of course, but then that is In keeping with the fashions of the year, and, oddly enough, these can be worn with gowns of any kind Pinked ruchings and ruf1es trim the taffeta wraps, which at first glance seem to be merely straight wide scarfs, and which in most instances are shaped so that they are wider in the middle than at the end. In black, white or green, old fashioned coiors, they are made, but all are on the same scarf order.
 In chiffon they are much more elaborate, with rows of shirrings and outings and hordered with lace ruffies over chiffon. White is the smart color for the chiffon, but there are some made of pale blue or pink that are most attractive and trimmed with yellowlsh lace. In marabout or os- trich feathers and in narrow ruffies of lace edged, but sewed on a broad, fat scarf, are many most becoming wraps The feather ones in white or all the lighter shades of color have quite little warmth about them, and yet are far lighter and cooler than the ostrich or cocks feather boas.
 One of the very latest fancies is the lace scarf made on the same model as the flat marabout or ostrich feather scarf, but composed of myriads of narrow lace rufies put so close together that they overlap each other and sewed on to a foundation of net. The lace need not be real, but If imitation be used 1t must be of the finest quality of an open pattern and decidedly cream in color Another style of lnce wrap Is the long lace scarf, not shaped but made of one width and long. This is of necessity costly, as ex- quisitely fine old lace shows to the great est advantage, and lace lovers have greet ed the fashion with enthusiasm, finding at last an opportunity to wear real lace, so that its beauty will show to the best DOS sible advantage.

The plaited jacket, made with, the fitted shoulder yoke of last season, is again fash ionable, with, of course, modification so that 1t need not look like last years jacket made over. The long shoulder seam helps very much in making these jackets look dif, ferent for one of the favorite fads is to have the shoulder line so long by means of the cape effect that at first glance 1t seems per fectly inappropriate to so short a coat. Fanciful in the extreme are many of these effects, and yet, as rule, they are beoom- ing, for they give additional breadth to the shoulders, and, consequently, the waist looks smaller. But 1t Is as rule much more be- coming when in connection with these long shoulder effects there are fiat, long pieces In front of the trimmings or else of the same material, for the long lines in front prevent the figure being cut, as 1t were, and made to look too short and stout The long shoulder capes, with the flat stole pieces in front, are one of the vagaries of this fashion, and last years jacket Is often made possible by trimming 1t with this style of cape and stole combined.
 Summer weather in any climate at the present time is so changeable that there are many days when coat or wrap Is necessary, and consequently the smartest gowns are now made with jacket to match the skirt. With these there may or may not be a waist to match, for although fashion has decreed very positively that waist to match the skirt is necessary in every smart costume with light clothes or any material at all heavy, a waist of the material Is very warm and too heavy to be comfortable, so that the thin waists are as fashionable as ever, but with them are worn short jacket or wrap to match the skirt.
 Tichus are again fashionable and the hchu effect is often given in quite heavy materials as well as In the thin wash fabrics. When this fashion is becoming 1t is exceedingly so, and there is some thing very soft and graceful about a hchu that Is properly adjusted with not too much fulness around the shoulders and with the long ends in front tied In a soft knot and then allowed to fall to the hem of the skirt, or, if more becoming, part way down. Lace or embroidered ruff hes are necessary if thin materials are used, but on many of the heavier coats there Is nothing at all excepting the fat bands, and only the folds are used to give the soft appearance that is becoming Great care must be taken that fichu is not tied too high on the front of the waist That gives a very ugly line, except for an exceedingly thin gown, where 1t Is de

The very conservative, od-fashioned mourning forbade the wearing of any trim mings whatever on the first gowns that were worn. These were made of some lusterless fabric, as ugly as could be chosen, and un- relieved by any white at throat or wrist, and without even narrow fold of crape. Now when the widow, we shall say, makes her first appearance in public her gown may be of lusterless fabric, but It Is heavily trimmed with crape, with sheer white collar and cuffs that are exceedingly becoming and and at the same time mark the fact that she Is widow.
 At one time-and not so long ago-ony widows were permitted to wear the trans parent collar and cuffs, but now these be- coming little touches are permitted to any mourner, only they must not be nearly so

sweet, unselfsh inexperienced girl, to whom he gave sort of fathery affection In return for her ardent love.
 "If only Alice could have the Income with out the encumbrance," sighed her aunt, who opposed the match until she found that wide eyed Alice really was in love. There never wns a more simple hearted girl in society, and her elderly suitor had completely won her heart Alice was stylish and pretty, and bewitching in a girlish way. but she did not realize this, and 1t was source of wonder to her that MT. J. Prescott Pemberton, handsome, middle aged and rich, should wish to marry her. The consequence was that, while he took for granted her charm and sweetness, she hung halo on his bald old head.
 Alice's aunt had withdrawn her opposition, and the wedding had taken place after a short engagement Now 1t was almost year since they were married, and Alice wondered wlstfully If her husband would celebrate the anniversary. This morning was the fcst time that she had ever let him guess that she noticed his lack of devotion.

If combination of the old and new style be permitted-that is, a gown without any trimmings of crape-it must At to perfection, and can have bias folds of some material; but just as soon as possible the crape gown Is put on. It is made en- ureiy Of crape, or with half the skirt In crape, and the jacket so heavily trimmed with It that 1t is impossible to tell which is the material and which Is the trimming. With wide flowing sleeves and everything as graceful as possible, small wonder is 1t that so clad the mourner Is the object of deepest sympathy. not to say admiration

To mourn becomlngIy is extremely fash ionable at the present moment, and to mourn picturesquely Is the very height of every womans ambition, apparently, so that now, even In the deepest grief, clothes are chosea with some regard as to what Is becoming to the style of each Individual mourner and at the same time the different degrees of woe are marked In quite Il novel fashion, not, as was formerly the case, by 50 many add,. tional yards or feet of crape veil or by the lack of all trimmings. Clothes are frivolous at the present moment, there is no question of that, and consequently the frivolous tone has extended to black and sombre garments of all kinds, and if a widow were danger ous in the olden time she is Infinitely more so at the present moment, with the modern habiliments Of woe

 MT. Pemberton was twenty years her sen ior and essentially a mans man, who had never understood women. The first Mrs. Pemberton had had a positive talent for managing men, and had always had every thing she wanted.
