NOVELTIES
IN PARASOLS
All Sorts Of Styles That
Make an Appeal to
Every Taste.

There are small parasols with six ribs
and others with sixteen, as the Japanese
have them There are parasols with
handles of medium length and others
with the long Directoire handles. There
are parasols of plain materials AMI
others OF brilliant lowered and figured
silks In a word, there are parasols TO
appeal to the taste OF every woman.
As utility parasol, one to take TO the
beach in the morning or the country cluD
/ for the morning concert, the perfectly
plain taffeta in one of the brilliant colot-
ngs is the most ia fashionable. IL may Oa
OF bright emerald green, or of lavender,
blue or red. but it must match some hit
OF color in the frock. the hat the belt
the stockings-some one spot of color In
the costume. The handle may he long
or of medium length and is generally Of
wood. carved if il is desired. but quite
as often plain. The linen parasols are
now embroidered in color. either in the
solid or the eyelet embroidery and the
handle is often Of the same color as that
used for the embroidery.
The conservatively dressed women al
ways favor the plain taffeta parasols.
but those in search OF something new
Will be interested in parasols Of one ra-
diant tone, but with shlrred edges in
/ stead OF the plain curved line. giving a
slightly bouffant effect. which is novel
rather than pretty.
Another parasol, Of white silk. ia lined
| with black silk and the edges turned I'D
and slightly rounded, 80 that a touch Of
oiack seems TO bind the edges of the
parasol A black and white silk cord is
twisted around the top OF the parasol.

lining will appeal TO the women who
nave learned the advantages OF the
black hat, or, rather, brim. faced with
oiack' in bringing out the depth and
brilliancy OF the eyes.
Many OF the newest parasols are being
fashioned from MORE. One in a bright
emerald green MORE as made I'D with
sixteen ribs, which give the same fat
appearance Of the japanese article An
other, in white MORE. is finished with a
deep hem OF black velvet. while one I'm
glorious pink has a narrow edge Of the
olack velvet and a long handle Of black
velvet. Many Of the white silk parasol=
have the black velvet handles. and one
OF lavender taffeta has a handle OF Law
ender velvet
The lowered silks have been largely
, featured in parasols. One particularly
dainty shade, with square sides similar
| 10 lamp shade, is composed entirely Of
pompadour Powered chiffon, slightly
shirred and finished with a ruche at the
edges.
The delightfully."- lacy and frilly affairs
TO be carried with a lingerie frock at a
garden party are very lovely. One ex-
quisite parasol of black Chantlly lace is
lined with pale pink chiffon, which will
cast pretty blush over the checks OF
the owner when II is raised over her
pretty head. On the outer side, as II II
had fallen there from out OF the skies.
there is one perfect. large. shaded pink
rose. The long handle is OF pink quartz
The handle of another parasol OF shadow
lace is OF Dresden china OF course, one
fall to the ground will shatter f. but II
is lovely to look upon and worthy OF envy.
