 The prevailing opinion at Pensacola Fla, is that the yellow fever epidemic there is beyond control and that 1t Will remain until frost comes. The efforts of the doctors are centered principally in preventing it's spread. There were l9 new cases on the Sth.
 Reports from points outside oi New Orleans continue to develop new eases but very few deaths from the fever are recorded.
 Reports from points in Louisiana outside of New Orleans indicate that the fever still has a good hold; like wise al the infected points in Missls- sippi and at Pensacola, Fla.

Corselet Skirt.

The thin sister is again deferred to in the form taken on by the new tightness of fashion. just as she has heen by her former "dippy" and blouse effects. The eorselet skirt, which comes as a welcome change. is a step toward returning to the line" heretofore obscured, but it is a step only. as it is cut at present so as to stop short after revealing hips and waist line. To-day. however. the thin woman with her small waist and moderate hips, can appear at her best in the eorselet skirt. while her too thin arms and shoul- dcrs are pretty decorated and fluffed out in any style she pleases, for the point about this skirt is the contrast from the bust downward and from the bust up- ward unless the corselet skirt te shown on a severe tailor model. Even then itls generally completed by little grace fully cut bolero. It is a fashion Rhien looks equally well for the simplest of morning frocks and for the fullest dress evening gown II is becoming to the large but shapely figure. but must Dc passed over by the woman who tends to spread out about the hips.

ON YEAR-ROUND DRESS.
Less and Less Difference Between the Seasons and a Word About
 Popularity of Silk.

Women of fashion are getting more anG more away from the idea that they must have one set of clothing for summer, and another and entire ly different set for winter. Shirt Waists ara worn all the year around: shirt=Naist suits are becoming every season; long coats can be donned win ter and summer providing they are neither too thin nor too heavy; and dress are being brought into the list of Ieady-all- -the-year garments.
 The taffeta fall waists are construct ed to be worn in cold weather. and many of them are made up so thac they Gan be worn in the very dead of winter
 There are women who make up . handsome silk suit at this time, talk ing care that it conforms in all ways to the styles promised for winter. It must be just right in the upper arms, with that wide look across the chest and shoulders which is coming to be more and more the style In addition to this, it must be perfect as to small trimmings. There must be a deal Of piping upon it, with a few contrasting folds and some handsome touches of braid
 No dress chapter is quite complete without a word CT two about the long coats which are being made up for wear now. The seeded silks are inn pressed into the service and handsome brown seeded silk is made up in the skirt and redingote style with the lorg coat falling in beautiful straight lines over the box-plaited skirt This makes very handsome fall suit, and one which anyone might desire.
 In the silks it might be claimed that the taffetas lead. But this would be saying too much. There are glossy silks which are very popular, and more silk is again seen.
 The old-fashioned dotted silks, tho seeded silks. the Japanese silks. with their brilliant red dots, and many other silks. are displayed. and it has come to a point where it is unwise to recommend this silk or that one for there are so many from which a choice might be made.
