mediate use. Another very good shirt,
also suitable on the instant, l have
seen fashioned from what Is known as
blouse piece" of white ninon print
ed from bust to shoulders and down
TO the elbows in conventional device
In black and blue, and green and
white. The inventive purchaser hav-
ing cut away all the white ninon, re-
placed 1t with black. leaving transpar-
ent black the yoke and collar, and
bound with blue and green ribbon to
match the design, while black ninon
sleeves were tucked becomingly down
tothewrist. And very pretty blouse re-
suited.
Colored Porcelain Beads.
On all the bodices, whether devoted
10 evening or DAY wear, patterns work
ed In colored porcelain beads appear
to intrude themselves, these either
taking the form of a collarband with
pendant ends Of ecclesiastical tenden-
cy, or a small vest across the front
OF the decolletage with bands at
the edge of the oversleeve. Again
these bands Of many colored beads are
TO be met decorating the coiffures,
which still continue to receive much
attention and exhibit very definite
inclination to return to curls and ban
ish into the limbo of oblivion the fiat,
turban coil.
Curls are now placed very much on
the top Of the head, the hair slightly
puffed out over the ears and about
the nape of the neck, and parted eth
er at the side or in the center, accord
Ing to individual taste. The effect
OF the curls on the extreme top of
the head is to give height, and this
Is sometimes enhanced by the addi-
ton OF coronal plait around them,
and the coronal plait will rest on a
colored ribbon or a band of jewels,
the Fastening of this being concealed
at the back. A black velvet ribbon EN-.
broidered either in key pattern or dot.

pretty addition to very fair or red
locks, but Is lost somewhat when worn
amid dark tresses. Very dark hair
does not seem to be much In evidence
all dark women au naturale having
grown somehow or other large patch
OF white at one side of the head, which
Is very striking incident: while
young and old alike continue to dye
their locks red or chestnut brown, OIL
gold, as they deem may best become
them.
Oriental Designs.
We show considerable sympathy to
wards barbaric and Oriental cos
tunes, always excepting the haren
skirt, which l have vowed to except
for ever. Besides this, we have Gull
ed from eastern nations the broad
sash fastened at one side Of the
front with fringed ends, the turban
the zouave, the kimona sleeve, which
continues on the high road Of fame
and cabochon jewels. N
1t is to be muslin year, so the au
thorities predict, and under the head
ing Of muslin we accept cordially
many exquisite examples Of painted
chiffon and ninon, printed all ovel
with floral pattern or with orna
mental borders; bordered silks, too
are in the market, taffetas above will
delightful designs of ribbons and flow
