Belts and Sashes.

Belts are conspicuous by their attractive
ness at present. The folded black satin or
silk belt we have always with US. and there
are endless variations Of this idea. Long
ends knotted several times make a pretty
finish to the back OF skirt and are very
Mandy to redeem the appearance of q last
year rrock. The bows should reach four
or five inches above the waist and be set
upright on the belt. The ingenious may de-
wise countless delightful notions for them
selves and their friends Rucked belts OF
suede and leather can now be had from a
dollar up, but 1t is much wiser to invest in
one OF exquisite quality and color. A good
everyday belt bestows glow of conscious
virtue and we'll being, and, once acquired.
lasts for long. long time. and no more
worry with wisps OF ribbon, clasps, etc. To
be neat at the neck and waist is half the
battle. The military sash belt is q new de-
vice. It is finished at the side by large
tassels but only slender figures should
wear 1t. fooled leather Is another charming
idea for belt, and. these may be had in q
distinct and individual style which Is very
pleasing to the possessor. Those who work
In leather can produce delightful specimens.
and so many women do this leather work
nowadays for pastime. fooled leather but
tons are also charming for coats and out

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, June o. 1904.
In the heyday OF her charms every wo-
man vows that when she gets to be forty
she will dress like forty. But when that
time comes, she changes her mind.
The truth is declares a dressmaker of
note, that few women of fashionable pre-
tensions dare to dress as suits their years.
often the whitest heads will take to fool
ishly gay hats and figures which have lost
their grace squeeze into waists whose tight
ness displays every defect. Consequently,
those ladies who wish to appear young are
made to seem really older, for nothing Is
so aging as colors and effects too youthful
for ones years"
But, notwithstanding this tendency, the
chops and private makers have always con-
sidered the needs of elderly wearers. and
styles now include effects as well suited to
the old as to the young. These are the gun
metal grays, the shoulder capes with stole
ends, under sleeves and poke bonnets.
The last are Partisan novelties, and In
the larger shapes the pokes may be worn
by maids still in their teens Those for
women who are no longer blooming are
less eccentric in size and shape, and are
trimmed more staidy. for the young"
pokes are most Electrically 1880 in

FASHIONS IN HAIRDREssINa.
The Grecian Woman's Method Still
Holds for the Modern Maid.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Artists to the contrary, American wo-
men declare that the Greek woman's head
was level when she combed her hair like
frame about her face and bound II about
with filet or wreath. The modern woman
who Is sufficiently young and pretty to
stand that mode of decorating the hair 10
using a twisted rope of wide satin ribbon,
knotted at intervals, all around her head
This arrangement enhances the grace OF
the head, but ii is not universally be-
coming the half wreaths. with the ia
pering ends, which generally worn, or
the more airy arrangement, in half-wreath
shape, of gauZe dragon-fy wings with an
ornament in the center.
These dragon-fiy wings are far too full
hedged for dragon fly, for they stretch
their gauzy lengths for several inches long
each side of the wire frame of the curve
which they follow. Six pink wings, three
on each side, have their beauty accumulated
by cluster of apple blossoms in the CEN
ter.
White wings are lovely spangled over
with small gold spangles and have a small
rosette of white tulle in the middle, while
black gauze wings are spangled with either
silver gold and sometimes have a small
aigrette of gold silver tinsel in the CEN
ter, and sometimes one of feathers.
Every woman has ribbon ornaments for
the hair, more or less elaborate. according
to the occasion on which they are to be
worn. Dainty rosettes of long loops are
made OF number of loops of gauze ribbon,
in soft colors. The idea in wearing SO
many of these ornament is to get a note
of becoming color to the face to offset the
effect Of white gown, for white gowns are
worn morning, noon and night now.
The flush of a pink rosette, the glow OF .
red one, the bright CLEAN of a yellow orna-
ment or the warm tone of some other color.
lends a brightness to the wearer of a white
frock, and the woman of taste selects
the color that will best bring out the beau
ties of her complexion, the luster and tint
of her eyes and the warm or bright lights
In her hair.
Some of the ornaments are of numbers OF
short ends of narrow satin ribbon with
tiny bows in the top of each end. They are
crowded together and give something OF
the effect of a cluster of fragile flowers and
something OF that of little butterflies.
Another ornament has loops of narrow
ribbon tied In a knot In the tip of each
loop. This has the effect of a novelty and
is pretty. too. Besides. II makes the loops
stand out as they would not do without the
knot.
Feather aigrettes are usually decorated
with Jewels and antique jewels and bar
cites worn in the hair. well as
frame buckles OF rhinestones and other
Jewels. a

genre. Generally, for old and young, they
are made of very coarse straws, sometimes
with narrow ribbon bindings, and the other
trimming put on to create quaint look
But really old ladies-those VINO are con-
sentative in dress-prefer the small fiat
bonnets long worn. Ruffiing beco1,iDgly
about the face, many of these include
elight fall OF lace or shower OF buds or
grasses at the back. and narrow velvet rid.
bon Is still preferred for the strings and
little bow under the chin. Grin (horseha1r
bra1d) is a very stylish medium for such
bonnets which show all the ricn viOlets and
dim grays of the season.
Flat Toques and Eats.
Headgear for women neither old nor
young-of ages between thirty-five and fifty
-include fiat tooues without strings and
medium sized hats whose br1ms are with
out much flare or undulation. These are
variously trimmed. but a becoming feature
OF the season is to match the lace veil to
tho hat-brown with brown. violet with
,Siolet. gray with gray. &c. This fashion
able wrinkle smoothes away those which
nature has planted beneath the veil. for
colored nets over the face arc rejuvenatiDg.
Other devices followed by mllliners for
the softening of lines are fluffy underbrim
trimmings for hats. as well as wide chiffon
or lace or net strings. Sometimes there
may be only single scarf. which, coming
from the back of the hat, wraps several
times around the throat and at last falls,

Is a softening trick with other dressy hats.
First and foremost In the discussion of
a street dress which will admit of both
comfort and a smart appearance. A we'll
made tailor gown supplies this necessity
with perfect taste for elderly wearers.

They may introduce upon the coat such
softening touches as seem necessary.
For instance, the neck OF many severely
tailored jackets is often cut OUT to show
circle of white. treated with bit Of color
and subdued with black. This treatment n
a cuff or band will also appear upon the
sleeves, and 1t Is wonderful how its slight
radiance will illuminate grave set-up.

A tailored costume Of gun-metal gray
Panama cloth is relieved in this way with
white silk worked with black French knots
and edged with violet. circular band
about the neck Of the coat and the f1aring
cuffs are made of this, with sleeve falls OF
white lace.
The model of coat and skirt especially
considers the form which has lost it's elias

inserted at the back with square OF
pleats, is single breasted and falls some ten
inches below the waist. The apron Of the
gored skirt Is extremely narrow, and all
the seams are Tapped. A bonnet of violine
straw trimmed with the same color, will be
found effective with such a suit.
Not a few of the practical dresses worn
by gray-haired and younger women are OF
brilliantine, sometimes with the bodice as
summing cape effects at the shoulders. With
pleats at each side Of a plain and very mar
row gore, the skirt for such bodice fire.

Heavy machine stitching, done in close
rows. is feature of many Of these gowns
and in some of the shades of brown the
brilliantine has a dazzling luster.
More colors and delicately figured weaves
are observed in the new mohairs than plain
black, for black is not much admired now
except for rich materials and even IL the
gown is black some color appears in the
bonnet. Often indeed, the bonnet for
black dress is all in color, made, perhaps OF
small violet or blue flowers, or of autumn
tinted foliage with velvet trimmings.
Old Ladies' Skirts.

old and young, though in trained shape
they seem more suited to gray hair and the

Did you ever see a doting nurse or fond

day to rub out what she calls the kinks
in its spine? Your own spine, during the

such kinks, and needs just as much to be

Women Exiles From Finland.
rom Eyerybody's Magazine.

Until recently, there were few educated
women here from Suomi" the Land Of
Lakes, as Finland is called. the few includ-
ing chiefly the wives and daughters of some
of the Finnish professional men already
mentioned So short Is the time allowed
the exiles to leave the empire that in most
cases the unfortunate is obliged to sail with
out his family, depending upon the members
OF his home circle to follow as best they
can. Hence the number of educated Fin
nish women IN America will steadily In
crease with the arrival of the families of
the exiles and refugees. Notable among the
women already established here are two
women physicians, Doctors Eskelin ana
Ahluyist One is now preparing for the
regents examination in Boston with view
to praticing in Massachusetts; the other Is
similarly engaged with the same end In
view in Michigan. Both are daughters OF
patriots, both have been bereaved by the
exiting Of loved ones.

Summer Fashion Fads.

The fs.yorite braid for wolfe gowns will
be the bright surfaced hercules.
Pelerine collars slightly draped in front
and finishing in a point. leaving the throat
free, will be much worn this summer An
other effective collar is G. yoke and bertha
in one fitting closely on the shoulders and
then falling with full fare
The latest development of the sleeve frill
is the employment of fine lace dyed to
match the shade of the gown. Chiffon Is
also largely used for sleeve 2rills
The fashionable decolietage line Is some

corsage is cut lower, /. is finished with O

silvery grays, violets and ashes of rose

with rhinestones
For dressy day wear a silk gown is also
acknowledged to be the correct thing for
elderly wearers, and all the soft silks of
the season are used for such costumes.
They are fashioned rather plainly, and fire.
