FASHION NOTES.
What the “'omcn of Style Are “'earing
During the Fall Season.
Following the English fashion straw
hats will be worn until holidays. Some
of the newest of these have the brim;
faced with fancy braid in contrasting
color, one specially ,handsome model
being of black Milan with facing-.-of
lace braid in the natural color of straw.
The trimming is of loops of the braid
glossy wings and aig‘rettes in black.
; While round waists are still fashion-
able, there are many basque bouices of
various styles. One ,model is shown
with no black seams, but this is dosh-9.5
ble only as a novelty, as the oifcci. 1.:
by no means pleasing, save in excep-
tional cases. The style and figure must
match to be harmonious.
Enormous quantities of narrow vel-
vet ribbon are used for dress trimmings.
Row upon row of this material is seen
on cloth and other wool fabric. ,A
white broadcloth has the lower part of
the skirt almost covered with velvet
ribbon, set on in an open arabesque
patterh.
French lace and various imitation
laces are much liked. Old-time black
laces of various sorts are being hunted
31 among the family heirlooms. Black
Ugantilly, guipuro and' Brussels lace
a e'the' height of ' fashion. The ‘fincr
land older, the more the lace is approved.
A fabric that may be described as
moire velvet is one of the new impor-
tations. The smooth surface of the
pile is slightly stamped to produce this
effect, which is extremely pretty, mak-
ing the surface into .fine watered lines,
very dressy and elegant.
Black lace is used in enormous quan-
ltities. Ruchings, collarettes,.plaitings,
shoulder rnfiles, bertha flounces, wide
or narrow bretellcs, and, indeed, every
imaginable way of disposing this ma—
terial seems to be approved. '
p The fancy'for changeables is running
riot. It has reached ‘all classes of dress
goods, even mohairs and all grades of
suitings.—¥N. Y. Ledger.‘
'* A Monarch’s Trials.
Mrs. Bingo—The Rajah has one hun-
