they are flawless. The other dear little
bit of a body has thriftily washed and
made over her drab camel's hair skirt
and added a pretty trimming of braid
ing, and she has taken the train and best

The tailor made gowns ore more fash-
tenable than ever, even quite young chil
dren wearing them; that is, girls of 13
and 14. They are mado of homespun in
pepper-and-salt mixture with flecked
and snowflake surface. There is an
other fabric much liked for children and
young ladies called Herrison brocho,
which is really a brocaded stripe. Chev
iots are worn in every conceivable vari
ety, the shepherd and fine checks being
favorites for the young. Tweeds are
tbs favorite materials for tho tailor mado
salts in different weights. Bnt the clan
plaids are more liked than any of tho
above named goods for general wear.
There is one rough material known ns
drop St. Petersburg, coarse and harsh
bnt warm and thick, and in several de
signs, mostly largo, indefinite coarso de
signs, with ouo spot in each plaid that
looks as if darned in contrasting colors.
This makes undeniably stylish costumes,
and requires next to no trimming.
Mourning goods vary little, the silk
warp Henrietta being do rignour for first
mourning, with crapo bands. A widow’s
gown is made princosse, buttoning up
the whole front, with bands down tho
front and around tho bottom of the
skirt, which is mado to train slightly in
the back. The sleeves are covered with
crape. Tho bonnet has a Mary Stuart
point in front. There is n now silk
nun's veiling which hangs in exquisite
folds, and is light and devoid of that
nnploosant crape smell.
A dress for a young lady in mourning
for a parent has a waist trimmed quite
plainly, and with crape sleeves. Tho
