LINENS. ARE IN FORCE.
To Look 000111:me the Battle In Hot
Weather.
Fashions ale not an inspiring theme in
the heat of summer. Theoretically they
are alivays equally important, but practi<
calLv the interest'in them diminishes dur-
ing the time when clothing, except of the
most primitive sort, seems a burden.
There are women heroic enough to lace
tightly and wear velvet and fur during
the warm season, but their days are evil,
if not few—evil days seldom do seem few‘
in number—and the effect is not pleasing
enough to make it worth the suffering.
To look cool is half the battle in hot
weather, and that requires thin, loose gar-
ments.
Linens appear in force this season. A
plain heavy weave is shown in colors guar-
anteed fast, tan, blue of various shades,
green, rose and red. This makes ideal
blazer costumes alone or used as trimming
for white linen duck. Cotton duck suits
are seen in still greater variety of tints,
black and navy blue, with hair stripes of
white, being particularly neat. A thin
lawnblouse may be worn under the blazer
or a snug, bright colored vest, which is
less cool, but smarter. With flowered dim-
lty for house and country gowns and
china or thin glace silks or grenadine for
more elaborate toilets the fashionable
summer wardrobe may be amply furnish-
ed without the aid of airtight satins and
“ii-,7

velvcts. There is no limit to the possibili-
ties of thin stufi‘s this year since ruffles,
pufls, ribbons and lace are the accepted
trimmings and allow of a thousand difler—
ent arrangements and combinations. Black
or white lace beading sewed on in bands
forms a pretty decoration for muslins and
may be left plain or threaded with baby
ribbon matching the color of the goods.
Lightweight wool crcpons are shown in
delicate shades, which are almost as cool
as cotton goods and are more serviceable
for seaside wear, as dampness does not af-
fect them.
But we are supposed to discuss what is
as well as what ought to be worn, and al-
though the thin materials just mentioned
are in vogue heavier ones are also fashion—
able. These women who wore skating cos~
tumcs open at the throat during the win-
ter will probably be the ones to appear
now in thick silks and standing collars in
spite of the fact that the mercury has taken
“excelsiori’ for its motto. *
An illustration is given of a costume of
two shades of satin. The plan skirt is of
myrtle green satin, and the round bodice
of the same shade is covered with lace, as
is the lower part of the tight green satin
sleeves. The sleeve puffs and folded belt
are of almond colored satin, and the ac-
cordion plaitcd satin collar, forming four
points, is of the same color and is border-
ed with mar-about. J UDlC CHOLLET.
LAWS. OF ANATOMY.
Some of the Pointed Tapestries Arc Fearful
and Vv'onderful.
Painted tapestry for curtains, wall
draperies and screens is very much in
vogue at present, and some of the speci-
mens shown are marvels, not of beauty,
but of ign'orance of all laws of anatomy
and artistic effect. Figure subjects are al—
most invariably chosen by the tapestry
painter, and nine times out of ten he or
she, as the case may be, proudly produces
a picture that would be a libel on a saw-
dust stufi'ed wax doll. If you want a piece
of painted tapestry, do not buy it until
you have consulted some capable artist
friend, and thus avoid the chance of bur-
dening yourself with an anatomical anach-
ronism that will make the well informed
person chuckle in his sleeve every time he
sees it. Courtesy often compels him to
listen in silence. to the boastings of the
possessor of some outrageous piece of so
called artistic work, and he is divided be-
tween a desire to be appreciative of the
thing shown him and his inability to
truthfully praise it.
Speaking of painting, one of the latest
ideas is the selling of the backs of hand
mirrors, hair and clothes brushes and the
handles of combs made of fine white china.

A PRETTY HAT.
It Is Made of Black Lace Shirred on W129!
and Edged “'lth Jet.
Somebody has lately raised his voice for
the purpose of disil'lusioning us' and de-
stroying the poetical associations of our
hats. Hosays that ncapolitun braid—that
fine, lacy material, made of horsehair-is
not Neapolitan at all, but was invented by
a man in New York who gave it that
- name because he couldnot think 'of any-
thing else to call it. So goodby to all
dreams of Vesuvius and the be; of Naples
in connection with our DULrlletS. Thus are
most of our idols—and idyls—shattered.

sardines, ascertaining by and by that they
Were caught‘ff the coast of Maine. Our
Brie cheese is made in Orange county; our
French wines come from California; our
spaghetti never came near salt water until
it was cooked. Since, as it appears, we
must use our own products, why not an-
nounce to the world in, general that we
really are sufficient to ourselves and hon-
estly call American goods by American
names, thus avoiding the payment of duty
on imported titles?
Black hats, neapolitan and others, are
much worn this year and are often pro-
fusely trimmed with ostrich plumes, which
are again in full vogue. They are a per-
ishable sort of decoration, although very
beautiful, for the least dampness in the
air destroys the lovely curl that is their
chief charm and make them stiff and flat,
and recurling nevcr restores them to their
p’rlstine beauty. The Spangled. plumes
are especially sensitive to moisture, their
frost vanishing before a, fog as natural
frost does before the sun. '
Moire ribbon shows no decline of popu-
larity as a trimming for bat and bonnets.
.. It combines well with jet and spangles
and has the glitter which is this season
conceived necessary to a fashionable effect.
Yellow and black is a popular combina-
tion, and a very pretty gold colored straw
braid has been brought out, wide and
glossy, but light. It is fragile in spite of
its course weave and will not bear rough
usage.
A sketch is given of a large round but
made of' black lace Shirred on wires. It
is edged with jet spangles and trimmed
with Chantilly lace which forms two large
wings in front. These serve as aback-
ground to two jet wings fastened together
in the middle by a knot of ribbon from
which springs a jet aigret.

A FLAVOR OF SENTIMENT.
Decorative Touch to the Practical Idea of '
\Vornankind.
“A woman’s greatest charms are those
least easily analyzed. ”
“A woman is not truly beautiful until
the angel of sorrow has touched her with
his wing.”
These are two of the innumerable pret-
tily expressed fancies with which the
French nation adds a flavor of sentiment
to its practical everyday life as it adds a
decorative touch to the ubiquitous negli-
gee morning sack by means of a. bow of
ribbon. We in America have still .some‘
thing to learn from the older countries, al-
though not perhaps on the points upon
which we are most willing to receive in-
struction. We are so scientific and so pro-
gressive that we leave no room for senti-
ment in our life and are in danger of set-
GREEN coercion.
tling] down into a sort of highly moral
materialism. Sentiment, even if it 0008-
sionally degenerates into sentimentality,
is a genuine relief from the utilitarianism
which is the atmosphere in which we ex-
ist as a people. The French are scientific
’ ondeven more thrifty than ourselves, but
they contrive. to take life with the bloom
on it and make living in some sense an
artistic pleasure, whereas half of us live
because we must and are constantly con-
scion: of the fact that it is very tedims
work indeed. We are inclined to ignore
our Emotions and afi’ord them no escape
valve, so permitting them to concentrate
theirforce untilthey broak out". into seri-
ous demonstration. Perhaps we . shall
neflverximprove inflict-direction, and if so
wp can only lay it to the climate, which al-
_ , ’y-‘bears-thc responsibility of our nasal
no and our restlessness. ,

BAN DEAU AND MONOCLE. ~
Anomalies and Curiositio/zs of, the Flckll
Fashion (Rimless. .
At what shall we hesitate in these days
of anomaly? A certain authority devotes
half a column of small type to a discus-
sion of the effects of the revival of the
bandcau—that‘ smoothly plastered ar-
rangement of the hair in which it is part-
ed in the middle and brought down over
the temples and ears in the fashion of
Evangeline pictures—which it says is
right at our doors, and in the next breath
announces the arrival of tho monocle.
Was there ever such acombination? Con-
ive Evangeline sporting a single cyc

colors and sold by the yard it has .been
utilized for various purposes other than
washcloths and bathrobes. ' The orna-
mental varieties aro at present employed
for loose dressing sacks made with bell
sleeves and tied together 'with ribbons
matching the pink, blue or yellow stripes
of the material. These are cool and com-
fortable garments, well suited to the sea-
son, and as they do not have to be either
starched or ironed the laundering is a sim-
ple process.
It is said that chatelaines are again com-
ing into fashiOn, thonatural consequence
of the universal popularity of the belt.
No ‘doubt they will be worn by a. great
many women of acknowledged good taste,
but there is nevertheless always a sugges‘
tion of vulgarity about any article of
clothing or personal ornament that rattles
or jingles, a hint of the aborigi al savage
who delights to decorate him if with
strings of cluttering beads and bits of
clinking metal. Perhaps when humanity
reaches the higher stages of evolution it
will wear no jewelry whatever and will re-
gard gems and metal work in the light in
which itnowconsiders paintings and stat-
uary—as things of beauty not suitable
for purposes of bodily adornment.
The latest development in wraps copsists
of two full capes of moire mounted on a
yoke and bordered with jet. The lower
cape has two long stole ends in frontvthat
reach almost to the bottom of the skirt
and are finished with jet fringe. A torsadc
of moire fastened at the shoulders by‘ro3
settes outincs the yoke, and a bow of black
satin ribbon with floating ends unites the
torsade in front. JUDIC CHOLLET. _
AN UNMASCU LIN E GOWN.
It Is of Serpent Green Serge and Velvet
and Is Extremely Handsome.
The objections to a fashion of dress for
women more nearly approaching the mas-
culine style are mainly sentimental ones,
and that is why they are so hard to over-
come. A demurrer founded upon apparent
reason may be logically proved to be wrong,
but to fight a sentimental theory is like
contending with the wind. If the persons
who disapprove of trousers costumes for
women possess that most uncommon of
attributes—common sense—they will say
honestly: “We acknowledge that the or-
dinary style of dress for women at present
is inconvenient and hampering in all ac-
. GREEN annex COSTUME:
the occupations. but we maintain that it
is more dignified and reserved than trou-
sers, and we dislike the latter because they
are ugly, unbecoimng and ungraceful.
Women arcthe beautiful half of humani-
ty, and we like to have them appear such
just so far as is possible, for there are
none too many beautiful things in the
world at the best." Hoirvever, personal
liberty is better even than beauty, and
whether women wish to dress in trousers
or skirts they should not. be molested, no:
made afraid. Each individual best know!
