FASHION HINTS
 FOR EARLY FALL
Gold and Silver Laces Popu- lar Among New Trim
 mings.

are in Europe to get next season, <
 s3ods comes word that there will be <
 craze for gold and silver ornaments
 next fall. Hats, gowns, blouses andE wraps are to be adorned with gold or silver lace, braid and tassels The ohutse of metal is determtnel chiefly by the color scheme. Faint light browns and delicate bright greens are the favorite hues Sometimes the brown i5 trimmed with green, in which case gold is the most harmonious addition. When green is trimmed with brown, silver is regarded as giving more agreeable effect This fashion will be extremely trying to women who have- nit the great dressnakers at their com- mand, for good effects with gold and silver trimmings are difficult. The ten- dency seems to be toward garishness.
 Long, tight-titting and very severe coats are promised but as time goes on these are to give way before the directoire cut-aWay. which will be worn with a handsome waistcoat and plenty of braiding.
 In Paris the fashion for pink gowns has been particularly noticeable in the evening, when number of plain cling@ ing satins of this color are worn. They arc untrimmed save for a bunch of exquisite flowers.
 Braids are indeed increaseing in rath- CT than failing favor, and will play anI important part in autumn trimninss 4 gown prepared for Cowes waa,, b,s i an Euglish society woman is of a,,,,tx yy

 Listed among some of the very stvf. lsh dresses seen this week was < eow,,,
 or pale tan voiIe made with ii,nr,a,y
 waist and a skirt banded with tbrea
 bands of the voile. The openwork un.
 on the waist was piped with a very
 narrow bias fold of red silk, while the
 shoulder pieces, the vest and back were laced with red silk buttons. The skirt folds showed narrow gred pip- ing, while the tan belt was made on the same order. The skirt was slightly entrain and looked beautiful in grace- full lines.
 A silk null of. hay color is suitable for evening wear. A dress of this mas terial is laid with broad tucks. upon the skirt, and used in sufficient num- bers to reach the knee line The waist 1 is partially decollete, at the throat es- lpeeially,, while the sleeves are short and pointed under the arms leaving I the arms almost uncovered to the shoulders. While the skirt is severely plain, the waist is finely tucked and finished with beautiful ecrue valen- cinnes of very dainty pattern An other costume made almost identical with the one just mentioned is white silk null with blue silk ribbon garni- ture and lace ruffles finished at the topI with velvet ribbons.
 The last recruit, where military flowers are concerned, is the rhodo- dendrens. This is the first occasion in the annals of fashion when this par-I ticular towering shrub has been eri-I ployed for this purpose, although 1t iss of course, only possible when used toE trim the immense cloche or mushroom hats Tn lilac or white, deep crimson or pale pink, charming effect isl gained on a hat of white rice straw, the brim of which is lined with stretched silk in a shade of rhododen- dron pink. Another flower which is I high in favor just now is the Shirley
 poppy, and a very charming effect wass gained in the case of Leghorn hat, the brim of which was encircled with
 masses of pale pink peoples, crushed
 so closely together as to give the effectE of silk ruche, while loose cluster of
 the same flowers, with sprays of black
 velvet hops, was inserted at one side. Contrary to all expectations at thaE early part of the season, when every- one was looking forward to reign or almy muslin and lawn. the tailor-madeE has absolutely asserted it's sway. Strip-s ed costumes have had far longeF
 vogue in Paris than is usually the eases
 and the plainly-made, striped coat. simply hemmed with braid or taffetas,
 and unadorned with any trimmings,
 whatever, beyond strappings of it's own material, has been taken up en-s Enthusiastically. For once the exampleH of our French sisters has proved the salvation of those who were wont to5 toverload their costumes with cheap trimming; and not only in the three
 Iouarter length coats, but even in theE little short coats and boleros which, are more popular with the majority
 Eof women, a like moderation is shown. !
