lnuo bonnet, with velvet niiflturtlus In
throe or four rihudeH of yellow, from
loinon t rich orange hrown, ami words
cannot paint lt imperii liouuty. Tho
hrllllancoof tho coloring was tniul down
hy tho hlnok lace, which wan twined
among them no that thoy wore partly
vellisl and shaded.
KI.KOANT NKW WIIAPS.
Tho crownh-HH lKUiueta nro a fixture,
particularly for tho carriage and visit
ing. The most of tlii'so liavo n decided
consul olTect, many having n hand of
jut or Iridescent bead trimming in Eiffel
polnta fcot ho tlmt tho K)Ints nee hi to
fitand up from tho head. It Is very be
coming to any stylo of face.
If fashion shown sentiment in bouuclH
niul hntH she shows little In tho untiling
of colors this HciiHon, ami till tho i Idlest,
piettlest similes nro imiiied after vego
Uihlen. Aubergine, or egg plant, is the
favorite. This is u rich purple with
black shades. Those nro carrot, tomato,
mushroom and lettuce tints lu nil the
new fabrics, butEHTel red, or terrncottn,
Mill retains its populailtv.
Plaids in soft surah silk and in poplins
as well as woolen goods mo very popular
mid, to ho entirely do rigucur, should ho
uiiido on the bins. Black velvet in bliw
folds or riblxni is tho only suitable trim
ming, and black- wraps or jackets tho
only outer garments tlmt should bo
worn. I glvo heio three new mid very
handsomo wraps; two nro made of black
faille Francnise, twlinmed with laco
and chenille trimmings. They are easily
made, us the hack of them both nro jimt
like 11 dress wnist, with a fnll of lace ntui
u bit of the passementerie trimming as n
finish. Illaclc straw hats of natln finish
braid, trimpied with ribbon and plumes
to match, are worn with them. Tho
plain skiit beside tho plaid ono is of
EilTol red camel's hair.
Tho other two costumes nro just nmdo
anil among tho most elegant of tho sea
son. The walking costume has the plain
skit t of stone gray bongiilino, with loz
enges of brown upon It. Tlio dainty
wrap is of Eiirol ladies' cloth brnidoil
with black. Tho novelty of this Is the
wrapetTeet, which is obtained hy length
ening tho fronts, ami tho closing of it on
the left side is also quite a pretty Inno
vation. Tho bleuves ure loose. Tho body
of the wrap is a simple basque in tho
back, anil it ilts the shies tinder tlio arm.
The house ill ess is of coachman's drab
Henrietta cloth laid in double box plaits
in flout vvheie it is slightly draHd. The
back of tho gown is piiiicess shnpo in
suutT brown lleiuiettn, the waist, culls
and skirt being lavishly trimmed with
silk passementerie one hIiiuIu lighter.
Tlio dainty pattern gown has ulready
been copied in jovernl other combina
tions. Aubei glue and light blue m o seen
together, but moss green and drab, ci cam
color with olive i;reeu and such combina
tions aro more leliued. Two shades of
grny, ono very dark and the other light,
aro always elegant and lad like, as aro
also ditferent shades in brown.
UVDYLIKK COSTL'MKS.
Just now the uiaidou vvith tho abnor
mally developed hat brim and tho bit;
ilogaro seen out, and tho young lady's
struggles to keep the dog within bottiuN
niul the hat from blowing otT nlTonl
cause for anxiety on tho part of the be
holder not unmixed with nnmscmcut. If
tho hut did blow olT, could she trust tho
dog to catch it for her? Or is tlio hat
nailed on securely? Tho wholo Is a
subject for reflection, but I don't believe
tho nails would injuro tho brr.in of any
girl who goes out In tlio street with o big
dog, Olive Uarprii.

Tho accompanying design Is a pleasing va
riation to tho over present oval or round
drawing room tablo. Tlio novel feature is n

of tho lower structuro. Although tho cabi
net table represented Is Intended to bo an In

of drawing room furniture now twlng mndo
tho saino Idea could bo adapted to library pur
Kwes with slight change. Tho doors In tho
ups-r pnrt could ho nmdo of wood Instead of

Tlio interiors of doors could Ikj lined with

to lie used as writing slopes when let down.
In tho event of this suggestion Mug adopted,
CAIIINKT TAI1I.B.
the canted corners of upier or cabinet pnrt
would have to Ixi made smaller to admit of
sufllclently largu doors for writing purposes.
Thu sMices under cabinets should, in any case,

pearnueu, and nlso forms a useful receptacle
for china, pusjrs, etc. If made for a library
tho enrichments would probably Is) carved

This design of a simple little work tablo Is
framed ukiii rather unusual lines so as to an
swer a double purxso. Tho Issly is diamond
sluiMvl and arranged for tho icceptlou of
needlework. This is provided with two lids,
which, when cloned, sloHi al an angle with
tho shape of tho
body. These lids
nro Inteiulisl to Ihi

A small rack is at thu sidu for the reception
of n blotting case, which, thus plnced, would
nlwnjs bo leady to hand. It Is also tltted to
serve in the capacity of nn ordinary table for
"at homo" purM)ses.
When loqulred for uso as a work table, ono
llap should remain closed and the other
should bo turned I Ight back uon tho center
stilpof wood to which both of them aro at

accessible and bring tho lid Into play as' a
convenient tablo for needlework requisites.
In const i net ion it should consist in tho main
of a light ojien wooden framework, with silk
