 pearl button This was especially good in prettry hunting green and in white.
 Belts of cut-out suede over SILK are handsome. and a lovely green kid belt had beautifl large Dutch silver buckles lin back and front.
 Some of the deep girdles come in elab- .Orately worked designs in suede. 4 prettry fancy is to have the belt match the shoes, especially if no very outre shade is adopted. One sees OXfords and pumps in the artistic cOlOrs of purple. burnt orange, green and red, besides the familiar shades of tan. White pumps are pretty, and a very charming pair of gray suede pumps with silk stockings to match were seen. An odd costume seen at a leading shop had a green silk skirt of invisible check flaring widely at the bottom, where it was decorated with three graduated folds of green cloth. The bodice was of white embroidered muslin with draDed elbow sleeves ending in a lace frill and was nearly hidden by a shaped fichu-cape of the brOadclotb, fastened down at the waist, back and front by large gilt ring slipped on a black cloth strap. The collar was of the black cloth and was also finished with the gilt rings.
 i A cool and dainty white china silk dress with closely plaited skirt and lace trimmed waist attracted several women to a Twenty-third street window, for 1t was marked down to a modest price, as are so many other things in this hot July season when shopping is least attractive. Petticoats, kimonos, and all sorts of white undergarments are be- , ing reduced everywhere, and some good ] bargains in these lines are to be had. Silk kimonos are dear 10 the feminine soul and they and muslin wrappers are selling briskly.
 We take this description of an after noon gown from Vogue:
 Very youthful and becoming is the gown that follows-a stripped gause in lavender blue-extremely pale and made over white chiffon satin; the stripe, a half-inch wide, is of lustrOus satin A simple gathered skirt from 1 the belt downward to within nine inch es from the bottom, where the gauge lis cut into round scallopS and frilled round with a ruffle of Valenciennes. Under this falls another ruffle of plain mousseline to match, and this ruffle is also edged with the same narrow lace. 1 A second narrow fiOunce repeats the one described and gives the prettiest finish imaginable to this graceful skirt. i The bodice is hals low in vertical stripes of gauge, and belted in with a pale rose-pink satin belt having an oval strass buckle fastening in front. The sleeves maintain the same simplicity as the waist. while the simple elbow pOuf 1 has a lace ruffle jabot on the outside of the plain blue mousseline matching the one on the skirt precisely. The same blue ruffiing and Valenciennes in
 double rows frill at the elbow with marrow folds of pink satin. An old bit of rose point lace is turned over the neck in the most picturesque, gathered 1 in slight fulness, and finishes in front with a black tutiie chou upon which have been fastened a few sprays of pink carnations. A necklet is worn of narrow black velvet with a pearl drop hanging from three small chains. A white chip hat is enWreathed with pale yellow roses. and its eachepeigne Is of yellow roses also, broken by narrow black velvet butterfly bow. This cos- tme is sure to be quite captivating at afternoon Junction. A tulle neck ruff
 of the same pale blue meets the re- quirement when driving by coving the neck and adds, If anything, greater charm to the toilet, Long ribbon ends in two inch widtlf tied after the fash io of such accessories give the finishing touch of fashion.
 In a Broadway shop some handsome embroidered shirt waist dresses and blouses in Hardanger and cross-stitch |patterns were seen. These are made of such lasting material that they are a satisfactory investment A pretty
 white suit was seen with a cross-stitch pattern ir navy blue.
 Sets of chemisette and deep cffs were seen in one shop. They were elaborate
 ly made Of insertion. edging, and Irish lace wheels. The prices vary from seventy-flve cents to a number of dol lars.

 Review:
 AS gathered from a collection of inn ported framcs, of which we were ko, lntted early by the accommodating dealer. idea has been arrived at con lccrning shapes with which the next season will open in headwear. Indica- ttons now point to prevalence of hats oi
 medium size rather than to the decided fly large or the decidedly small shapes
 although illustrations of both large and Ismall hats were noticeable in the frames is question. Very great diver sity was discernible in the shapes Drought out in the new frames. Low lcrowns, for the most part observable they are variously square bell shaped land oval, with some of eccentric lines
 while some in the frames of wide brims iare still more or less wide. Caprice ir
 brims is the rule-turnings-u at this
 point or that in the circumference
 volutes, projections, fluctuations lslashings, Holdings over, and what not
 every conceivable freak of fancy on the
 part of designers having place in theil adjustment.
