ESTELLE’S WEEKLY
FASHION LETTER.
New York, May 6.—The shop win
dows here are all la bloom with gowns,
garments and hats, many of them
really works Of art and beauty, and
gracefully draped with materials ex
quisite In texture, lovely In color, and
charming In design. Everything says
“Springtime and Summer on the
way." Fifth Avenue this week showed
a continuous line of promenaders re
joicing in the mild air and bright sun-
shine, and not one Winter costume to
be seen.
The publlo tea-rooms were filled
with smartly gowned women and their
well-groomed cavallerB. It was Inter
esting to watch the manipulations of
the long gloves at the tea tables. Bah
tered toast and mufllns cannot be
handled with Impunity with gloves on,
and yet gloves oft Is not at all the
thing with arms bare to the elbow
But how can a prudent belle let |4
pale grey or cream-colored gloves he
sacrificed to Dame Grundy. The only
way Is to slip the small fingers, and
thumbs out of their covering to the
wrist and then tucking the superfluous
suedo neatly back, partake comfort
ably of the necessary refreshment.
If reports from Paris are correct the
elbow sleeve is on the wane. The
three-quarters sleeve Ib really the lat
est favorite and has been generally
adopted by those who dlBlike ex
tremes.
The past few warm days have
brought to light the newest thing In
the way of a wrap, If a bit of a cloud
or a piece of the rainbow can be called
a covering. Of course, Winter gar
ments have entirely disappeared, but
a cape or bolero would seem neces
sary. Not so, says my lady, who
throws over her pretty shoulders a
lace or gauze creation and declares
hei'Belf very comfortable, indeed. One
Is tempted to think it the comfort that
every woman feels who Is prettily
adornod In the newest and best. These
shoulder scarfs and petite shawls are
really very becoming and some of
them do add just the little extra
warmth and protection needed on the
public promenade.
There are some charming neck ruffs
shown of white mallnes, plaited thick
ly and hanging over the shoulders,
with many long loops of white ribbon
whore they fasten in front. The
scarfs are after all the real favorites,
especially with tho younger Bet. Thess
scarfs have been very popular all win.
ter, but tlje Spring and Summer crea
tions are somewhat different. Almost
all show hand work In some form,
many being embroidered after the
fashion of the old-time crepe shawls.
Only the ends of these scarfs are thus
adorned, the pattern being sprigs of
vines that point upward. They are
finished with a knotted fringe or with
hemstitching.
Black scarfs for elderly ladies are
lightened with glittering black span
gles, or for mourning are embroidered
richly and heavily. One of these
graceful little protectors was worn at
one of the tea-rooms by one of the
middle-aged leaders of society, 1 a ma
tron whose beiledom has not waned
oven with whitening hair. She was
gowned nil In gray and her shoulders
were daintily outlined by a scarf of
pearl grey liberty gauze. It was quite
a yard wide and more than four yards
long. The edges were finished with a
holder of grey ostrich feathers. It
blended In effect perfectly with the
dress of grey broadcloth and mousse
line do sole. The skirt was gathered
lovely. The skirt of tho gown was of
grey pea-spotted mousseline de sole
with a 9-inch wide flounce of the rib
bon-lattice at the hem.
Another attractive costume wns of
old-rose crepe de phlne with a lace
bodice and sleeves dyed to match. The,
monotony of color was broken by a
narrow belt of black velvet not more
than 114 Inches wide, knotted In front.
Over the shouldere and arms was worn
a long scarf of black mouBsellne de
sole deeply frilled across the ends. .
These narrow belts are more and
more In favor and are to supplant the
girdle for street wear. Young women
take very kindly to this fashion and
affect particularly the very narrow
patent leather found only In the swell-
est shops. They are perfectly plain,
with a gold slide at the side. A debu
tante wore one of these belts with a
stylish blue serge street suit, with a
blouso of fine white linen. The skirt
was’out with, a flare and short enough
to show the pretty patent leather
shoes. Her hat was a white sailor
with a white band and quill.

close rows of shirring. The waist was
almost entirely of the muossellne de
sole. The cloth girdle was fastened
by tiny rosettes held In place by out
steel buttons. The hat was of grey
straw, wide brimmed and high croon
ed with loops of grey ribbon, all cov
ered by an exquisitely embroidered
white lace veil, drooping over the brim
a little with the ends and falling low
at the back. She was a picture.
The bolero jacket, however, Is by no
means discarded, tho', bolero and scarf
must not be worn together. There Is
a Bort of bolero, cape which Is stylish
and It is also suitable, a combination
not always achieved. The bolero cape
Is really a yoke with plaltings stretch
ing across the shoulders, across the
bust and the back, and reaching from
under the arms to the waist line. The
real bolero, however, Is a sleeveless
jacket and it is more for beauty than
use.
A very unique gown was finished by
s bolero of most original design, made
of Inch-wide ribbon woven Into lattice
work. On every crossing of the rib
bon was placed a small flat grey
crochet button. The ribbon, by the
way, was grey satin. Of course, be
tween the crossings the bolero was
open, the squares thus formed being
quite large, and the blouse showing
through from beneath. It was of pal-

If anyone has any doubt as to the
virtue of Foley’s Kidney Cure, they
need only to refer to Mr. Alvin H.
Stlmpson, of Wllllmantle, Conn., who,
after almost losing hope of recovery,
on account of the failure of so many
remedies, finally tried Foley’s-Kidney
Cure, which he says was "just the
thing” for him, as four bottles cured
him completely. He is now entirely
well and free from all the suffering in

The Axrlcan Ostrich. ’
The African ostrich, from which the
best white feathers are obtained,
stands six or seven feet high and
weighs from 80 to 100 pounds. Its egg
Is equal to about two dozen hens’ eggs.
Its feathers Bell In Africa for about
5200 a pound at wholeshle. While
walking quietly Its step Is about twen
ty-six Inches, but when frightened the
stride increases to about twelve feet,
and at this gait it can run sometbing
like twenty-five miles an hour. When
pursued It sometimes turns and deals
the pursuer a blow with the foot that
makes him think of the kick of a mule.
The African ostrich is the largest bird
now existing on earth. The American
ostrich Is only about half the size of
the African and has three toes, while
the African bird has only two. The
plumage of the American ostrich Is
gray.
The Discovery of Electro Gliding.
The experiments which led to the
discovery of the method of electro gild

ployed being procured and smuggled
Into the fortress by a friendly chemist
