TIME TO WORRY ABOUT
NEXT YEARS STYLES.

VIII next season find US still cling
ing to the traditions of the. last few
seasons or launching out on an en-
tirely different course? Is any one
of the Innovations and new notions
with which we are now dallying to-
be taken seriously as prognostic OF
the future?
l So many questions to which ii is
impossible to obtain satisfactory an
swers yet awhile.
We have just entered upon the
period which probably holds the key
to the solution, says writer in lie
Costume Royal. Paris, for the great
race week always supplies some tips
with regard to fashions to some. Nor
have the last few weeks been without

tremely agreeable and interesting to

| its appearance, when IT did come 1t
came with a rush. No half-measures,
no. beating about the bush.
| One of the results was to bring
linens to the fore, and such charm
ing ones, with just that amount Of
petites-serged effects, snowflake eff
/ fects and fresh assortment Of colors.
An eminently practical and delight
fully cool-looking series, commencing
| with creamy white and passing
through every shade Of biz and beige
and fawn to develop into pale al
mond. and squirrel brown. Delicate

lines of fresh light blues Zone might

but not SOY and some delightful pinks
to keep them company.
Standings, too, have emerged from
semi-seclusion to a place in the front
These are preferred in their natural
tints, ecru, bis or brown bread
shades, and advisedly so, for they are
always best in their own color.
A new trimming has been found
for smart tailor mades built up OF
this material, namely, bands OF silk
filet to match introduced between
traps or bands, but backed with the
| same color, not let in clear as are
the guipure insertions and fancy
! stitchery which joins the component
parts of linen suits.
They are also sometimes given fac
ings of white foulards printed with
cashmere patterns in pastel tints
The same is sometimes applied To
linen costumes.
One of rose petal pink with a wide
collar so faced, and trimmed with
froggings made OF cord wrapped over
by the silk, struck the fancy partic-
ularly. Not an economical suit, o1
course, nor one that would come back
from the cleaners looking as good as
new, but tip-top dressmakers here
are not deferred by such sordid con-
siderations.
Cashmere effects are as much ir
favor as ever, especially when linn.

there is certainly tendency to ex-
clude lat least from dreses) the more
brilliant combinations, though wher

For the latter purpose, however,

Well, to resume the thread of thu
discourse, great deal is done will
