How tnio It la that dress ninkefl tho woman ono may judgo by a look nt tho two pretty figures below labeled with our own tnulo mnrk of "morning ntul afternoon." In tho morn ing tho pretty angel of tho household comes down to her breakfast In n gown of soft, cream colored flannel, embroi dered In Russian Btitch nnd mndu in Hus Riiin stylo. With her nbundnnt locks hanging in two long braids hIio looks the sweet, cajoling daughter who can Imng nround her father nnd glvo him his cof fee nnd coax tho last penny out of his pocket, so thnt whon af tcrooon comes on MOltNlNO AND AHTEKNOON. sho can put on her new Taitnn plaid gown, with her st. lish, if wither start ling, jacket, w ith its bold design of braid ing and velot sleeves, and hat with a whole Kiiltry jaid on It, and go out shopping, or to lake one of those long, brisk walks that are so fashionable now. In the morning the dress compels the naive innocence of tho ingenue, in the nfternoon the entire outllt creates a new outwaid girl, and tho new one as she walks along with her head well up ami an almost delimit air beems to somehow exhale the statement that "the plague of tho fly resteth not on tho daughter of my father." Athletic exercises may be in some measure blamed, or thanked, for the in creased independence in the step and movements of the young women of the day, and the lest is due to the fuller self knowledge alTorded by the education given the gills. Dresses are not made tight enough to make sulTocating mar tyrs of them, and shoes are no longer the instruments of tortuio they used to be. I have a fashion liook for 1818, and in it I read that slippers with thin, tloxi bio soles were all tho style, for street as well as home wear. Now the soles of tho most fashionable walking b(K)tsaio at least a quarter of an inch thick, and some me thicker. Tho gain in the health late is gieat in consequence. At that period it was proper lor voting girls to be delicate, ethereal, w ith drooping heads, long curls and slim waists, and as long as that wan tho fashion it was perfectly proper. Now, we have fresh, bright girls with sparkling eyes, elastic step, arms with real muscles and chests which give plenty Hp.100 for deep breathing, and the lesuft ia certainly achieved by lenient fashion. Let us 1m thankful and hold on to what wo have, and strive for further advance. It is because women are learning to think, and aro learning more about themselves, a study that was deemed improper only a few years ago, that we can hope to have fashion join common sense, nnd give us clothing adapted to the preservation of health as well as tho adornment and enhancement of beauty. Tho new crazo for black China crepe gowns is spreading with wonderful ra pidity. Thero is also another kind of soft silky crape, which I really do not know tho nnino of, but it is very crinkly nnd exceedingly pretty. This is also largely used, and any lady who has an old black embroidered China crepe shawl reels as Imppyns a miner who has struck a lead. Tlieso shawls aro usually em- Poll Till: IIOMK DItKbSMAKr.lt. broideied richly in colors or in black. If in colors, It is perhaps better to have it dyed black before making up, as tho col ors are crude and scarcely suitable for present sijics. mo sliawl can then bo used as tho other crapo would be in com bination with some lighter color, ami a magnificent lt ess would be tit- lesult. I saw a gown made of plain black China crepe, made up over sky blue satin, and with a trimming of lino cut steel beads. It was worn at a recent Pattl night at tho opera, and was much ad ftm mired; nnd as It Is ono of those styles which clover tittle, homo dressmakers can ovolvo from grnndma's old ulinwl nnd n trillu of satin, I glvo tho dross Inf low, How pretty it Is I leave tho Indies to judge. It could te iniido high In tho neck by a yoke, ntul tho nleovcs could Iw mndo long, leaving tho puffed tow for caps. Instead of tho steel leading tho deft llngersof tho Industrious little dress maker can embroider or applique any thing she likes. Metallic colors aro more suitable than any others, as they seem fitter to Ihj used on blaok, and this crepo is blacker than any other fabric but vel vet. I notice among the now silks the love ly Japanese cropo, which canto out Inst season in only light and delicate tints, Is now shown in jot black with tiny pink polka dots or small flowers In the most natural colors stampc(Luon it. It is mi oxqulsito material, and has tho clinging effect so sought after now. A very pretty dress for a young lady is niado of bolgo colored cashmere and seal brown cashmere. Tho lighter color is used for tho panel oiienlng and drap ing of tho waist, and the darker for all tho rest. Tho culls and waist band wero worked in silk of two shades of brown, tho whole gown being very dainty ntul girlish. When a lady has a little nice material, either in velvet, volution, silk or woolen goods, she can utilize it by making a plain undersk'rt, anil then sho can wear several dllioront draperies with it, mndu of material of which sho did not have enough to make a whole skirt. If tho colors harmonize, it is enough. Any kind of basque or IkkIIco is suitable. I know one lady who has madu tho prettiest and dressiest of Figaro jackets out of tho best parts of a pair of line broadcloth pantaloons. She braided it with scarlet and gold, and when she slips this on over a plain gown, the elfect is almost magical. It does not take verj long to braid such a jacket, and I don't believe her In aid cost a dollar. Oi.ivi: II.uu'Kit.
