During the dance the train may be

these almost invisible fasteners are

its touch of fur. in this instance only

even the prospective summer dancing

IRON time immemorial Jewels
have played an important part
in social life. There are COS
tunes which absolutely demand
the completing touch Of richly set
gems. just as there are costumes
which are perfect only when worn
absolutely without jewelry; and just
as much modishness is conveyed by
the setting of ones jewels as by the
cut of ones frocks or the trimming
Of ones hats.
Just now pearls are prime favorttes,
outranxing even the diamond in
fashionable esteem, and genuine

BILE fortune while even for a pearl

a substantial sum must be expended.

Features OF New Evening Frocks.
The drapery OF the skirt and the
transparency Of the bodice are the
distinguishing features of every new
evening costume. Minor details there
are aplenty, but on these two fea-
lures depend the smartness and mod
ernness OF the frock. And by the bye,
to initiate the vocabulary Of the Dress
makers. the evening costume is now
a frock. not a gown. One thinks of
a frock as rather a simple. youthful
affair with more coquetry than dig
nifty. and lacking the distinction and
"presence" Of q gown. To the dress-
maker, 1t seems. a frock is q costume
that is short-skirted. while q gown
trails about the feet. Some of the
new evening frocks. 1t Is true, have
trains. but they are eccentric affairs,
