NODES Of 0he MOMENT

rOulades of dark blue and some DOME
shaped silver buttons.
We have returned to a recognition
of our old favorite blue and white
spotted foulard, and in a dark shade
banded with patent leather and COM;
pleted by black hat this must be-
looked upon as useful possession
suited to face these past summer days
which has formed so close a resem-,
blance to winter in their dull atmos-
phere.
There is still a great deal of black
worn, doubtless owing to the fact that
there has been great amount bought
and we are not so extravagant as to
wish to discard this half WORKOUT. 1t.
is the black satin dress of the char
mouse description which held and re-
tains our best affections, and few.
gowns are more becoming than this.
SO that the individual studies carefully
the lines of her figure and bestows
much attention on her neckgear To-
some the tur1l-down collar is becom-'
ing; on others, it is fatal; and the
very thin neck, or the very old neck
is better for the influence of band Of
black velvet held with diamond
brooch. Then, again, people with very
long necks will invariably find they
look better under the influence of 81
transparent collarband fitting tightly
under the chin. Perfectly plain net Is;
much used for these bands, and with a,
narrow hem of black satin they obtain
most general recognition. The addi-I
ton of a pearl necklet, of two, or even
three strings, on the black satin dressI
with the transparent top, is very valu-
able, and, added to broad-brimmedI
hat with real lace veil. well adjusted.
completes costume hard to beat.
Patent leather shoes have yielded
place to those of antelope, and laceI
stockings have been entirely SUPER
seeded by the very thinnest gauze
silk (
There Is nothing very new in the
land of parasols, and we appear to find
most satisfaction from those of plain
silk. ElaDorations, however, show
spotted net bound with velvet or satin,l
and we have recognized that the han-I
die made of beads is by no means COM
Portable to hold. f.
Which reminds me there are some
pretty new models in handbags, leath-
er being for the moment discarded in
favor of watered silk, tasseled and
held by a frame of gold These look
very well in black with gold Mono
gram in the left-hand corner. Velvet,
too, is used for these handbags, but!
watered silk is undoubtedly more att
tractive, and antelope skin is patron
lied also for this purpose.
Black satin Is to be the material for
bathing dresses, the trimming to re-
main strictly black, silken braid being
chosen for choice, while the belt is TOT
he of patent leather, and thin black
stockings are to be worn, and the
cap to be also of black. A variation Of
this scheme includes blue and white
striped stockings and blue and
white cap, but black, entirely black, is
really the most chic. AS a more Geo.
may be used. An excellent trimming
can be formed of black or black and
white cross-stitch, worked either I'M
cotton or silk, the rule of the black
patent leather belt still being strictly
observed. The shape Of the bathing:
dress follows the lines of the shape of
other dresses as nearly as 1t dare, the
skirts being narrow and the sleeves!
without fulness on the top. However,
the reticent will consider the charms,
of the Killed skirt which bears a linn
tied amount of stuff about the waist,
and this can be we'll achieved by the
checked toile which come to us from
Paris. Then, again. we always have
the fasciRations of red and pink bath
ing dresses to consider.
Pink is amongst the few colors we
are adopting enthusiastically this sea-
son. Pink of the palest Shantung and
tussore makes charming coats and
skirts, and may also be highly COM
mended for the tunic form of dress, but
even the best, laid pinks of man and
maid go all astray in the strong sun
light, and it must be written that it is
not avisable to put your faith in pinks.
Very novel and desirable at that Is
an all-in-one-piece dress made of pale
coral-tinted crepe cotton, with the hem
and belt and front of the slightly full
bodice worked in conventional de-
vice with white opalescent beads.
There was no other trimming save a
small lace yoke, and the costume was
well crowned with a leghorn hat
bearing huge black velvet bow.
