bride that some of the designers
have made an altogether Dutch
costume to go with it. The skirt
is extremely full and gathered into
the waist in peasant style. The
bodice is rather snug and plain,
but is crossed at the neck by a

Atlantic City, June 19.-The num-
Der of black satin hats worn with
light summer gowns is noticeable
here just now. These hats have
some neutral trimming, such as a !
bronze ornament standing straight !,
up in front or a few large white |
flowers. Once upon a time the all !
white hat was the only headgear |
permissible with sheer and pas

black hat is much more effective |
because it is a greater contrast
with the CeIlcdte IlntS-
New York, June -Sapphires /
and diamonds are this season the /
proper jewel combination for the
gift to be presented to the June !
bride. There are exquisite watches, |
in the form of pendants, which |
sparkle with sapphires and dia-
monds at the end of a black silk !
ribbon or a jeweled chain. These /
are the only sort of watches which |
a bride may wear with her we'd !
ding gown without a note of in
congruity. Bracelets of sapphires |
and diamonds have little jeweled |
tassels depending from them-a
lovely, glittering effect, on a young, |
white wrist.
Paris, June 19.-Despite the |
warm weather nothing IS more chic
Just now than the waistcoat, worn
of course with one of the summer |
crepe-de-chine suits which are al
most lighter than air. OF silk or
artificial silk, knitted in a pleasant
variety of stitches, the waistcoat .
is a neat and often a brilliant ad-
junct. The colors popular at pres
ent are beige, oyster white, and
with dark blue ts-geranium.
The proper thing is to have a hat
matching the color of the waist!

Paris, June 19-The Parisienne

individual frock. When she trips
down the Bots in a tailored gown,
her hair is drawn back sharply
from her face. With auf1fer clothes
her hair is moulded into puffs on
the ears and parted on one side so
as to be drawn low over the fore
head on the other. Above all
things she is avoiding coiled hair,
preferred to gather it into half
twists and puffs. There
is a feeling at the moment that
coiled hair is suitable only to
blondes with natural curls.
London, June 19-One of the
gowns worn by a debutante for
presentation at court has revived a
fashion that bids fair to become
very popular this summer 1t is
the skirt of graduated ruff1es of fine
lace. The titled 0ebutante who
wore the original with such grace

skirt and the sleeves were en-
broidered in chenille in a large

Paris, June 19.-The waistcoat ,
blouse is still a favorite for wear
with suits here. II is a more practi-
cal bit of apparel, far more so than

London, June 19-It is amazing
how enthusiastically and long the
London woman is debating the
question of heightened skirts. Ar
ticles on the topic, with opinions d,
