tiers of them here and there about the
hips, with like finish in the bodice, dis
close a definite scheme of ornamentation,
one whose ingenuity must be acknowledge
ed at once, even if endorsement Of its
appearance must await longer study.
Nor is there t. be reported a great
lessening in the use of rulings. Skirts
thickly set with narrow ruffies are not
met with often, but on the other hand
there are many skirts whose chief trim
ming is Of this order, and as for bodiees,
some of the new models are little else
but ruff1es. Such a model was the calling
dress of the small picture at the begin
ming of this depletion. This was in pearl
gray taffeta. and with additional embel-
ishment in Irish. lace, passementerie and
ornamental buttons was highly wrought
enough. Lace trimmings. too, are as law
ish or nearly so as they have been. and
while afternoon street dress surely is to
be simpler, the calling gowns Of your
fashionable woman in town will be as
complicated as were her afternoon
dresses for the show parade at the sum-
mer resort of her choice. Two new de-
signs for calling dresses appear in the
first Of the accompanying large pictures.
One was green peau de sole. black cham

other was blue liberty silk self-trimmed

was probably an hour thereafter that
the news from Sherman's headquar-
tiers reached us of Sheridan's splendid
victories in the Shenandoah.
Toward nightfall, or even when very
dark, while weary and fo0tsore from
tedious marching, yell coming along
the road from toward the front meant
going into camp ahead, but how far
ahead depended whether you were
very far in the rear of the army or
not. If you were, you we're probably
a considerable distance from camp.
While the picket lines were within
less than a hundred yards of each
other before Atlanta, in July. 1864, our
pickets, by way of demonstration,
were required to make almost daily
charges upon the rifle pits of the
enemy. Sometimes we captured sew
eral prisoners, and usually held the
rifle pits until the reserves drove us
out again. During these charges, Of
course, the usual yell accompanied.
One day the spasmodic and unaccount-
able army yell was passing around.
and, Of course, was taken up by the
pickets. The rebel pickets, thinking it
meant the daily charge, pulled out and
ran for the work behind. Seeing that
they had been the victims of huge
joke, one by one you could see them
slipping back into their holes ana re-
Stunning hostile relations. This picket
yelling was reduced to a considerable
system by The pickets themselves.
1 remember that the day of the
Peach Tree Greek battle our division
was away around to the left, and just
before shutdown our pickets became
holly engaged, and after seeing they
were in for it for awhile, they began
firing with seeming preconcerted ac-
ton from the left, by file and with
regularity that seemed even then re-
markable. The pop, pop, pop slowly
moved from left to right, ard as the
last one fired to he right you could
hear q simultaneous yell, then the fir
ing by the file again, and so on until
dark. Hundreds of incidents of the
army yells might be given, but they
are too familiar to be Of interest

taken to mean that the admirers ana en-
dorsers Of highly wrought effects are too
numerous to down. Tailors will tell you
that, while many OF their customers re
joice at the renewed stylishness Of simply
finished suits, nearly as many more fret
under the restrictions and rather seem
inclined to bemoan the passing Of the
far cy tailor-made, lace trimmings and all
the other notions that logically did not
be,ong to it, though it must be admitted
that at times their beauty was sufficient
to smother the average woman's sense of
logic. In less degree, like evidence may
be found in the designs prepared for fall
afternoon use on the street. A right
about has been indicated, prophesied and
urged strongly in this department of
woman's dress. The summer standards
were almost ON par with those Of most
winters in evening dress, and the fall and
winter were to be so simple as to verge
on plainness, and never, never should go
further in the way of trimming than to
suggest different effect from that 9th
er woman's. But that isn't sufficient for
all fashionables, and some Of the fall
suits, especially those for early fall wear,
are quite individual enough to set other
women to studying them. Two Of these
gowns are side by side in a picture here.
At the left see dark red cloth and APP
lilued black silk trimming. and opposite
md light gray cloth banded with white
cloth. Now if suits of this character
may be worn, surely there's no need Of
characterless plainness, but there's one
point to the situation that should be
made clear. Gowns of this character will
do very nicely for her who has an extern
sive wardrobe, but they'll hardly stand
wearing very often, so the possessor Of
fewer dresses should be less distinctive
for the afternoon promenade.
The present indication is that fash
ionable woman will need, this winter, to
spend almost or quite as much money for
wraps as she did last winter, when the
variety in these garments was remarka-
BILE. No form Of garment is identifable
