your veil to hang lower than mid
way down your nose, though ex-
cept over the face it may flow be-
low the shoulders. Under a tur-
ban of black ind white striped
straw, which fits closely over the
eyes, the Parisienne places today

oted edge. Tie veil barely covers
the. eyes. Though perfectly plain,
it is Of very fine quality.
London, Aug. 10.-Steel girdles,
beaten or pierced, are being worn
with black frocks. Silver, for
some reason does not seem so pop

not only elaborate, but also fairly
groups of tucks or panels Of lace
are to be held in place. Onyx and

steel, the ivory especially being
beautifully carved. Sometimes, too,
cabochon, amethyst or turquoise
are used.

teresting knee-length cape made en-
tirely of ribbon. These are caught
on each shoulder and about the
waist in such {. manner as to form
wide. pointed armholes and a
bloused effect in the back. The
cape is of black vanished ribbons,
about an inch wide, and fastens on
the left shoulder. In front and
back there is waist deep v of

of long sheath Of figured silk ex-
tending from the neck to a point

the only trimming. The sleeves
are mere epaulettes. For its eff
