BONNETS. next letter is iluo there nro so many things to mention that they cannot bo given tho proniinenco iluo to eo Import ant a subject, and before tho following week thuv nro no loncor novelties, for other now things have taken their plnces. And yet these thlngH nro only parta of tho prevailing styles. When they nro mentioned collectively they nro only spring, Hummer, mtttiinn or winter fash ions, and wptirntcly they aro "high nov elties," and eagerly sought for by those ladies whoso ambition it is to always havo tho ilrst of any now stylo. Ah boon na any ono clso wears tlio samo kind of tin article or color, tlio novelty hunter gives hers away, or, nu nomo do, sells it to tho second hand dealers. I know three Indloi who wear a garment a fow times and then sell it to tho person who deals in such goods. They havo everything fresh and new, and tho money tlioy rcceivo helps to buy new things. Ono lady I know has very red hair, and hor com plexion, fair enough in summer, is ns red as her hair in winter. Tho rngo for terra cotta color started, and sho was tho first to wear an entire suit of that color, bon net and gloves to match. Sho wore it in Washington, and it was said that sho illuminated tho wholo capital city, and much was written about it in the news papers. Everybody who had any respect tor herself or family immediately adopted terra cotta as a color, and when sho had seen a second costumo of that color sho promptly gave hers to a chamlcrmaid at tho Ebbitt house. Now, that was an instanco of tho lengths to which tho novelty hunters will go; thoy will wear ugly, unbecom ing things just to 1)0 ahead of everybody else. Hut, though they may not excito admiration, they know they will envy. Just so do tho fashionablo women look for tho new styles in bonnets, and, though to tho Inexperienced eyo there seems little difference, they find it out. Tho thrco hats which I present this week aro tho very freshest importation, and thoy show tho arrangement of os trich plumes. Tho stiff quill is removed and tlio feathers aro lapped and sewn to gether in a way that leaves them ilexi- bio and more llko trimmings than Elumes. Theso long feathers reach from rim to brim and aro long enough to go around tho neck and hang over tlio shoulder. They aro mado in such colors as are most becoming to tlio nvcrag woman. Tho veils are put upon tho edge of tho hat and hang down to tho chin. Thoy aro of silk barego and very trans parent. Tho poko bonnet is of dark bluo felt, and has a trimming of black watered ribbon, and black tips, which stand up as straight and rigid as possible. Tho top ono comes under tho title of "small felt bonnet." If tlio bonnet is small tho which resembles dingo ou tho drapery and waist U not a fringe, but is mnuo of loops of tho Henrietta cloth. Thoy nro doublo and only half an Inch wide. Thoy are sown on tho Inutile, then turned and pressed. Tho amount of labor Is very great, and Hint, I suposo. is why it costs $133, with tho hat, which matches tho costume. Tho mlddlo figure is to represent a re cent bride, who now has a chauco to assist in circulating Undo Biiui'b cur rency on her own account. Tho dress, however, Is very neat and tasteful, and is mado of bottlo green ladles' cloth and stripod and plain plush, with hat to match. Only tho hat has a mirt of bird iiiion It which would gladden tho heart of an ornithologist, ns it is of a hitherto unknown s)eclefl. Tho stylo of this cos tume, added to tho material In It, makes it cost $123, which tho crstwhllo "cash lady" thinks very cheap. Every day brings something now In tho revivals of tho empire gowns for young ladies nud tho dlrectoiro modes for both young ladles nnd matrons. Tlio first named does not exactly look well on Btout women. A very dainty uful pretty fancy Is shown in tho ball dress corsago and head dress. It is a sort of com promise between tho empress stylo and ancient Greek. Tlio Greek character is given by tho Bllver braid upon velvet bands, and the fillets of tho samo upon tho hair. 1 hoso wno linvo pretty hair can dlspcnso with the tuft of feathers and bow, leaving tlio llllets alone. A very taking theatre and dinner dress is of cream surah, with a garnet plush dlrectoiro waist, tlio cuffs, collar, lapels and licit being of striped moire. Tho buttons are of chased silver.

Tho bounct la gray with velvet bows of darker shade; around tho brim is an embroidery of chenlllo in shaded pink. Tho plumo is gray and pink mixed. This is for dressy occasions nnd ovenings, nnd is very pretty. Only twenty or thirty hats and bonnets aro Imported at a time, nnd thoy nro not duplicated under four weeks, nnd tho "novelty" then Is over. Another great novelty consists in tho curious coat wrap in the second illustra tion. Tills is not duplicated and was purchased from tho importer yesterday for 200. Why so little, I cannot under stand, for tho woman who will pay two hundred would certainly paid live if asked. Just tuch fools wo mortals bo. This queer looking garment is of chaudron red camel's hair, dead lino, nnd velvet of tho samo cheerful shado and color. Tlio sleeves aro llrst wadded, then plaited, which gives lliem tho appcaranco of being quilted lengthwise 'i ho back la treated in tho samo way. Tlio under arm pieces are lengthened and trimmed with very lino cut jet trimming of passe menterie, and there are epaulettes and other ornamentation of the same on tho waist and down tlio back in a (xiint com ing from tho epaulettes. The collar and culls are made of tho dark stripes of sable fur. Tho wholo is lined with I quilted satin. A high Tosca bounct has a trimming of dark grayish green ribbon and full plume. Tho bonnet id chaudon red felt. Tho dress to be worn with this surnriaim; coat is of in-eenish drab noult do sole, witli black stitching around tho bottom. A muff about big enough to seo by tho aid of a 42-horse jiower nilcro scopu goes with this. Without tho muff tho suit would not bo complete. Another very handsome imported nov elty gown Is or rich light brown Henri etta cloth and striped velvet. Tho novel but effective and graceful drapery would l)o better understood by looking at tho Illustration than by a description; there fore, 1 will only say that the panel, vest and cuiTs are embroidered cosfimcro pat tern In silks on brown velvet. That part IIIQII I'KIUSTESS ok younu hyson. Tho Greek fillet is becoming n favorito manner of dressing tho hair, and tho stylo is a plcaslnir ono. I beliovo they call it tho alary Anderson coiffure. Tho manner in which her hair is dressed always has a most untidy appcaranco to mo, being full of llttlo crooked odds and ends. Still, thoso who admire Miss An derson will follow her fashion, oven if their heads do look liko vol au vents. Tho goddesses of tho teapots still carry off tlio palm, for though men may not particularly liko tea to drink, they llko to go where pretty women servo it, and where tho idlo men go there also will bo found tho women who havo no other pos slblo distraction for what thoy call their minds at that hour. And it stands to reason, and logic, too, that where a lot of women expect to meet there is going to bo Bomo lino dressing. So as custom has decided in favor of tea gowns, tea gowns nro ns important as street and dinner dresses. I emtio across ono which I tlilnk Is very graceful and neat, with out being covered with laco nnd ribbon. It is of soft material, whether silk alone, or silk nnd wool, I could not tell. It is gray, with a silvery, wavy lino nil through it. Tho front 1s of palo pink surah, with a sash of gray surah, witli steel piquets at tho ends, llio yoko collar and bands to tho slcovcs aro of dark bluo plush. Tho back is cut princcsso shape, with a Watteau plait reaching from tlio neck to tho bottom. Tho stylo issimplonnd could ca4ily bo mado in almost any com bination. I saw another mado after this style, only tho gown was of a warm dark brown with a pattern of ripo peaches and leaves on it, in exquisite; coloring. Tho front was mado of fight gray cash mere, with a heavy cord and tassels in stead of tho sash. There aro also French flannels in cxqulsito patterns, nnd they mako up beautifully, not only in this cown but in jackets and wranncrs. Another very striking tea gown is mado of black India cashmere tor tho back, whilo tho front was of surah of tho now roeowood color. Tho sash was of tho samo, as were tlio plush tiimmlngs. All down tlio edges were bands of ostrich feather trimming in rosewood color. This makes a very striking tea gown. I noticed that many of tho now cos tumes aro trimmed witli plain black silk, which also enters largely into tho making of "best dresses" for all people. Indeed there is no richer nor more ele gant dress to bo purchased, or ono which will bo of r.o much real service. Good grps grain silk, which will Mand many years of hard wear, can bo bought at a dollar a yard. It can oven bo bought nt less, as tho competition is so sharp be tween tho rival dry goods houses. Theso stores nro so largo and so crowded with eager buyers from morning till night every day In tho year, that they can murk their goods down to n profit ol A MIXTUUU OK Kl'OCllS. two :onts a yard and yet mako a fortuno through their enormous sales, m that tho experienced ladv who wants a nlco dress can get it for a verv low price, provided she can bo hor own urobstnnker.
