dour ribbon of pink roses on a black ground. A shaped piece cut from the black was fitted on the front to the side seams and from here was gathered the full width of the ribbon with the ends drawn upwards to the back, wh ere they were knotted and let fall In sash ends.
 veiis are being chosen to match the gowns worn. yet those of violet or copenhagen blue are not becoming col ors to wear over the face. However, if the veil must match instead of con- trast, it should be chosen in a single thread with diamond shaped mesh and the dot may be large or small. which ever Is most becoming. The net wells with a, close mesh are extremely fash ionable. but they cannot be worn suc- cessfully by every woman There are some new chiffon voiles shown in sh aded colors that are made long enough to. reach the hem of the gown. One espe- cfally pretty was pink chiffon which deepened into a rich crimson at the hem and another was of yellow shad- ing into deep green.
 One of the daintiest frocks displayed in a fashionable shop In this city was developed in white figured net wisn1 trefoil design and was made over a foundation of rose-pink satin. The skirt, mounted in gathers, was gut slightly Empire and had a tunic Gut high on the left side extending to the hem of the gown at the right of the back. The hem was finished with border of rose-pink satin and inser- tIons of embroidered hlet. At half the distance between the bottom of the skirt and the highest part of the tunic. this trimming was applied around the skirt and then again at the hem. The bodice was draped over lining q nx square yoke, collar and undee- sleeves of tucked net finished with plaitings of net. The very small over sleeve was made of satin and edged with net. Filet insertion and points of filet oyerlapped the tucker of satin. The girdie very deep in front. giving a decided point and growing narrower. yet pointed in back. was made of smoke-gray mousseline. rms would be a charming frock to wear at a garden party or any summer fete.
