Chemisettes and fronts of thin fabrics and lace are worn with nearly all dressy costumes. Young girls are wearing wreaths of flowers around their heads at parties and entertainments. T’am O'Shanter hats of the finest straw } are trimmed with rosettes of black vel- yet and a couple of black quills. Among the important revivals for dress is grosgrain silk, which is to be one of the popular fabrics of the season. There are but few women to whom bright red is becoming, but for these whom ‘it suits it is the perfection of shade. The effort to broaden the shoulders is evident in the straight out epaulets, eape shaped frills and outstanding shoul- der puffs. Crape dresses are very fashionable and are thought axtremely elecant, especial- ly in the finest graues of Japapese ana China crape. Among the new garnitures are pat- tern sets of collar cuffs, rims and the like of white kid elaborately wrought with colored beads and metal threads... Shoulder capes in the extreme sum- mer styles are little more than very wide, fluffy collars. They are made of Jace or other thin or semitransparent summer materials and elaborately trim- med with jet and edging. The velvet costume is much liked, and most well dressed women like to own one. To be in most perfect style it is made up with satin collar, cuffs, revers and sometimes there is an extra vest with a turned over collar. A stylish costume of black Japanese crape has a plain skirt with shirred flounces covering the lower half of the skirt. The waist is gathered full and drawn down at the back to the waist line. The front is loose on either side of adrooping vest of fancy material which is tucked iuside of a folded belt. —New York Ledger. STAGE GLINTS. ‘‘Johannes’’ is the title of Suder- mann’s latest play.
