Nr.w VoitK, Juno ito. Whilo ton
gowns lmvo not quito Hitch n fnroro iir
thoy had two poiikoms ulneo, and ovon
Inst season, thoy aro still in good do
uiand, and thoy liuiko up in daintiness
whutover thoy may lmvo lost in iiiuhIkth.
Ono I camo across
today, just iin
ported from a fa
mous Fro noli
dressmaker, was
wo very graceful
and novel that 1
obtained permis
sion to show it to
my gentle read
ers. It was of
cream challio,
floored in soft,
indistinct How
era of pink,
inauvo and green.
Tho back was
belted in with a
moss g i eon velvet
belt. Tho front
dainty tka (lows, was of shrimp
pink china crape, quite plainly draped.
Tho sleeves wero of challio in tho upper
and cream Spanish laco at tho lower
part, with a band of velvet between.
Down tho front, starting from the
shoulder lino, was a cascade of Spanish
lnco which marked tho lino between the
challio and tho crapo. A prettier gown
could scarcely bo imagined.
I think it would bo very pretty mnde
of chambray and zephyr gingham, with
ono of tho stouter wash laces for garni
ture. It could hardly fail to bo pietty
no matter what it was made of, so that
tho colors were judiciously assorted.
Two other lovely gowns were shown
which will grace tho garden fetes at
Nowport soon, and as I always think wt
all have a right to share in pretty things
I present them. Ono consolation in
dressmaking this season is that tho home
dressmaker can so easily reproduce tho
most ornate of them.
Ono of these was of maizo China silk,
with very pale but largo pink roses and
their leaves. Tho sleeves wero modified
lcg-o'-mutton; tho waist a simplo Spen
cer, with tho poko of laco over palopink
China silk. Around tho bottom is a baud
of tho laco bordered with narrow moss
green velvet ribbon, which also is nr
ranged in a sories of bowknots as trim
ming, both on skirt and across tho bust.
Tho liat is of pearl gray Milan straw,
with trimming of pink and green velvet
and two black prince's feathers.
Tho other is of gray printed cashmere,
cut princess back and front, with vest
of pink crapo, and with simulated jacket
of whito laco, which also forms part of
tho bIpovo. Garnet velvet ribbon adds u
finishing touch in tho way of rosettes
and bordering. Tho hat is of yellow
straw Alpino crown with garnet
feathers and gold stickpin ornaments.
Among tho many ephemeral fancies
of tho season is that of tho blouse waist.
This is a most comfortable garment,
particularly adapted to youth, though
not debarred from those who have
passed their girlhood. It is mado of
calico, muslin, silk or outing cloth. It
is a simplo looso waist with a turndown
collar and a jabot or frill down the
front mado of plaiting of tho same.
Mado of navy bluo surah or China
silk with a whito frill it is very pretty
and modest. With a red frill it is more
striking. With ono of tho samo mate
rial it is quieter and more refined. Made
of calico it looks clean and fresh, and
in any kind of goods it is looso, cool and
comfortable; but no material or trim
ming can niiiko it dressy. It is for ordi
nary occasions, when comfort and the
freo use of ono's arms are tho prime
considerations.
These blouso waists can bo worn with
skirts of sorgo or cloth, and a short
reefer jacket can bo slipped on if tho
day turns cool. They aro very handy
for morning wear for young iiersons.
I uotico that tho old stylo laco shawl
is to bo worn as an elegant wrap by such
as aro fortunato enough to havo them,
There is nothing moro truly refined 01
ladylike, but they aro not worn in the
old way, but aro drawn up into a sort of
wrap form and held in place by fancy
pins.
Tho now silk potticoatsaro being made
moro and moro ornate. Tho foundation
Is just like any other skirt, and mado ot

tho silk, and tho edge of this has all the
way i i'o m ono to ten uariow inflict,
pinked or scalloped with llo, silk, ami
horringboned on in silk of cnntiusting
color. Part of tho lullles ate sewn on
tho outsido and pint nu the under side of
the skirt, and some of them have alter
nate rutlh'S ot lace.
Tho piottiest one 1 have seen was a
shot silk pink and gieeu, with each
rutllo hemmed and leather stitched. nu
iugieeii, the next with pink tln- ami
then) weie tight rallies on the uppi r
side and two full wide rallies mi ilia
ISiF
fir'i ft a
w
underside. Tho levoicly plain biscuit
colored choviot dress skirt was lifted
carelessly in tho back by a daintily
gloved hand, just enough to show till:
lovely silken petticoat.
Many others are mado of wash surah
in light colors, with narrow nifties of
pink or bluo, pinked, but tho trouble
with pinked rulllcs is that they fray out
so soon and then look very untidy.
Wo aro likely to havo a very brilliant
line of hosiery for fall, and tho most
delicate color will boa royal purple, with
whito or eteain colored tops.
Gold embroidery will bo a feature of
autumn styles in thoclo-o oriental man
ner, and tho Turkish and Figaro jackets,
stitlly worked in gold on velvet, cloth
or satin, will Ikj worn with most indoor
and some outdoor costumes. Tho point
ed belts, culls and vest fronts in silver
and gold will also bo very popular.
Thoy aro very expensive to buy, but
most ladies can beguile their leisuie
hours by doing them.

The noise of this day Is a grand epic ol
melody, and it is a music that strikes a
responsive chord In the soul of every trm
American and uwii'tcs him feel proud ninl
happy from his hoot heels to Ids straw hat
It is a melody that sets the American
spirit dancing, and is sulllclently sulitli
in its wild howling gladness to make
KtulTcd cnglu scream for Joy. and to cause
a crop of rippling ringlets to suildeiil

The small hoy has been making rend)
for the occasion with the same anxiety and
cure that a country manifests in preparing
for war with a foreign power. lie ha
been dreaming of it fondly since that mis
picious season of the year when thu blood

root trembles by the wayside and theclr
ctis poster and the gold lettered legend
setting forth the manifold virtues of the
blood purifier divide the honors on the
coalyard fence. He has been saving Ids
pennies as religiously as has the school
teacher who would goto Kuropc during the
halcyon days of vacation, that he may
properly celebrate the anniversary of the
biggest and reddest red letter day in the
history of his country. lie has been ills
posing of claret bottles and old iron to the
itinerant peddler. He would have been
perfectly willing, through the spirit of his
enthusiastic patriotism, to have sold the
chandeliers ami andirons to the same stroll

A statement of the condition of his little
savings bank before the Fourth of duly in
vestments are made would show It to be in
a very sound, prosperous condition. Hut
on the fifth day of the month it is as empty
as the monologue of a book agent or the
smiling welcome of a summer hotel keeper
The small boy is not always aware of the
fact that the firecracker with which he
celebrates the Fourth of July is a Chinese
institution.
The man who was once a boy himself
and still has the feelings of a boy and re
members all the pleasant sensations of the
Fourth of July of Ids boyhood, can gener
ally make a fair approximation to the
pecuniary standing of the youthful cele
brant. If he fires off a firecracker every three or
four minutes it means that he possesses
not more than three packages. The boy
who sets oil a package at a time under u
barrel generally has so many packages
that he couldn't set them olT one fliecruuker
at a time inside of two weeks This boy is
tho envy of all the other boys who are not
so fortunate as he, especially If, besides his
numerous bunches of fiiecrackers, he has
