For I , fr. llien are still tilled-coat, dome tlctit fitting, some fitted at the back and I. ..ikiiik lou.Hi? from t li i? bust nt the front. Then there aro countio.is variations on tin-He style.-), different ways of putting on trinunlngH nnil unique combinations of mi tc.rl.il, but nil tending toward the sume end the beautifying of woman. looking upon the pretty flneriet Fashion Is entering for the ttpiing mid summer rice, It is pluin thiit women are to be more th.m ever lndlvidu.il. No reully excellent model Im duplicated, und so numerous pre the charming devices employed to oblsin dis tinctive results thrt one has difficulty In following them. Tiered skirt are to be the privilege of the woman divinely tall, and let it be hoped divinely proportioned, for the Jupe In sections needs to be carried off by good lines. Such stylus, it U natural to con clude, precede the oveniklrt, which, in em bryo, are already In existence, though without the looping that once distin guished them. One skirt Is in two definite sections, cut exactly alike, and the top ono fulling, perhaps, to the knees. At the front this jupe, which was made of French barege in a pale gray, showed In both the top and bottom skirt a plain .apron. The upper one was fitted at the hips by pin tucks, and down the seams of the front gore went a ladder of stiff bows in violet velvet. This material, with white mull for the blouse and undersleeves, also touchd up the loose bolero and formed the gtrdlt Sleeves grow daily more elaborate, though occasionally an arm coveting fairly Simple Is seen. In such an event, how ' ever, it is UHually shown by a gown of more thau common severity of line, fur the least fusttlneas ehewhere gives excuse for ptcturesqueness at this point. The sleeves of a -French costume In puce colored cloth are looped elaborately over puffed undersleeves of white lace. Nar row mchlngs of puce-colored vehret hold them Into the arm, and the pleats of the abort, full bolero are drawn Into the figure by large, antique silver buttons. Ttie quite full skirt show ooJy lha cloth. With two If mmmmsmmmm deep flounces cut straight and put on with rMrrlngs. A sleeve lcs.. dressy In Intention is dis played ty n gown In light brown faced cloth, the ivory underside of which is usfd In a nnrrow bias for trimmings. The rloth l.i likewise employed In the same way for the puffed undcrslceves, over which tho outside ones bell moderately and slash at the back. The cott Itself is one of the newest of the long fitted models, but since belts ure Just now do rlgcur the band trimming shapes a glrlle effect at the waist. Still another unusual sieve la a big puff, fitted at the top with Inverted box pleats. EMOUANT TOILETTES ELAHORATE WITH One such graces a toilette In champagne veiling, whose skirt, manipulated at the hips with the pleats, fall at the bottom with the effect of a deep flounce. Lace beading, in champagne tint and'strutm with black bebe velvet. Is a simple and charm ns trimming for this costume. With cloth gowns of the most tlcraut nature, the little turnover collar, whl h seems a modest detail, in still worn. A'any materials shape the narrow band, which may take as many forms, and If it is white, it frequently shows embrt Iderles In the gown color. For costumes of silk and dressier textures chiffon, net, mou se ine, etc. the high stocks are nom -times fin ished with a piping of satin, velvet or panne In a contrasting color. A twist of white tulle In turn tops this, and rare is the elegantly dressed throat that doi s not show some bit of thLs becoming web. Hut terfly bows of raw-edged tulle are also pinned tt the back of the stork and at the front, while several of the more del'cite of the French gowns show even tulK un dersleevrs and vests. All lace costumes are not numerous, but late models show a lavish use of this trim ming, In combination with delicate nets. - Irish point and Bruges lace, with a llnillei quantity of Brussels net", compoerd a mag nificent "toilette de cifamo." A silk foun dation, so faintly axured as to teem scarcely colored, shows Ihreugh these rich' textures; ribbon rosettes in the same shade made to imitate flowers, heading the trim mings of both bodice and skirt. Another casino toilette, and one even more delightful, Is entirely of cream Urus ael r.et with vine applications of black and white Chantllly. For gowns of this elaborate description the blouso bodice, which gathers Into the belt, is still much in evidence, though it is varied by the little Jackets that hang from the shoulders. For both styles the newest waist girdlings are very wide, while the skirts hang with an effect as loose ns it was lately tight Whole sermons could be written upon th- bang and fnll of these pklrts, but pcrlnps it Is enough to say that they only rr:irh the highest form of excellence when in Frrnch shape. However, the artistic pat tern houses are putting forth flat nudels, which brilliantly achieve the French effects Bo with soft and adaptable materi als growing dally more and more numer ous, the woman of needle knack may fol low the most Intricate of them. The made up models suggesting also color combina tions and trimming effects, to tho clever ewer tho toilette is almost done once pat terns and stuffs are bought. Costumes which only master hands may effect aro among the Imported Ionls styles. These run to satin and silk and velvot LACE. coats with stiffened tails, high buckled belts end lace Jabots. The skirt may be In an entirely different material lace, net, or chiffon but it lias in line tho same courtly suggestion aa the jacket, and the little three-cornered hat shown with the costume may sport lace rosettes embrold- -ercd with gold or silver. Veronese green, velvet, declares a foreign correspondent, forms the coat for such a get-up, which has been compomd for spring salon wear. Contrasting vividly with this green is a vest of robin's egg blue satin em broidered in silver. The flounced skirt is of black net, shirred at the hips, but wi h out other trimming. The opening of the Paris saltm la always the occasion for much fine dressing, end effort is made to get designs as pictur esque as possible. Hut the I-oul.i coats are supplied for any dressy service, und with the Intention to push such styles here Importers are bringing over the em broidered kid vests and cuffs which will begay many of them. Notwithstanding, It is woman herself who shall decide whether or not tailed coats v.Tl be worn, and there Is no doubt but that the popular vote will lie for the looe bolero. Frilled and flounced skirts, for whl-h thre is just now a furore, no charmlnsly with these, and hats of tho isimpTcst line complete the girlish get-up. The "gunboat" 9nA the "torpedo" are the warlike titles of two of the new tur ban models, which are shown In rough straw. Trimmings of narrow velvet anil nteel buckles deck the neatest of these, but if the shape is of tulle and ribbon, a paradise plume may be put at the front or loft side. Some of the round sailor shapes, and especially those covered with silk, show small, low crowns, over which the trimming Is put, often hiding it en tirely. Flounces of lace compose the wide brims of some dressier hats, whose crowns nro not Infrequently of Watteau ribbons, bunched and puffed in numberless ways. Indeed, the new hat models are too many to bo counted, and if there are close h;it9 there uro flaring ones, and If modest styles, extravagant styles. Stilh what might be called a studied restraint marks the best designs; as little trimming as possible being everywhere uncd. and that Invariably following the lines of the headpiece. With some garden party headgear v ide strings nre seen, giving ft pretty wenrcr both a chl'dish and a milkmaid look. Thry may tie tinder tho chin or hang straight under the wide brim of the hat, the favor ite garnishing for which are wide, soft rlhbons. Ribbons were never more favored, nnd some of the wash petticoats are so beauti ful as to Incline women toward the hope that some day petticoats will be worn outride. For Instance, upon a hand made Jupon of Paris lawn, with flounces of French l;we, Ixjulslne ribbon In Watteau colors ts employed. Quite eight Inches wide, this Is frilled under the lace flounces, creating a tender blur of color, though, of course, the ribbon frills come off with washing. Trooping garlands of narrower Watteau ribbons are used upon other petticoat, which are in tinted lawns and batistes. Thee. dainty confections are adorable, though, from their very nature, they must be confined to house use. Sometimes com bining with a kilted Jacket, also ribbon trimmed, they arc exploited by the shops which make fine underwear a specialty. In this shape they are Intended for any negligee service that would call for a smartish get-up. nfARY PRAN. Applies for Membership Miss Nellie nurke of Wllkesbarre. Pa., has applied to the officers of the Interna tional Association of Machinists for a ma chinist's card, presenting as vouchers of her ability her credentials as a skilled ma chinist.
