Nkw YoitK, April 10. 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-

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.
