FASHIONSAND WOMEN. Olive Harper Writes an Interesting Letter On Fashions of Today and the Future, HANDSOME DEESSES MADE AT HOME Fashions For The Fall-- The Variety of . Hew Goods is Almost Endless Neat Designs. New York, July 29. Dainty, pretty gowns that were made, or may be im-ported, during Lent are only now seeing their first daylight since then, and some will still be kept a couple or three weeks FALL STYLES. the new dresses they must have to wear on their return to town again aftr their summer of pleasant rest, where they work harder at tennis, rowing and other active employments than the poor work-ing girls whose condition calls forth so much pity, only theirs is under loss healthy conditions. The beautiful new gowns that will take forms of grace lie now in smooth folds on the counters of the great im-porting houses, where I got a. terrible headache this week trying to do my duty toward my doar readers. Stuff goods are decidedly stuffy in large quantities in the summer in warerooms that are kept closed on account of moths; but 1 saw such beautiful goods, and like the rest of my sisters I um anxious for the cool days that will make" them things of delight and comfort. The color is gray for this season, and the varieties there can be in this one color is beyond the power of imagina-tion. First comes the soft pearl and sil-ver gray silk warp Henriettas, next the cashmeres and camel's hair, but par ex-cellence the now gray cheviot. This is to be a feature in the fall trade, and the effects achieved with black and white wool and one sole fabric is some-thing almost marvelous. There is a dark gray cheviot, almost black, the pat-tern being made by the peculiar weave, which is zigzag, and it is so cunningly woven that there are a dozen lights and shades upon it, giving it the effect of be-ing woven in an many shades, whereas laid flat you see but one. This goods is made by the simple admixture of black and white wool, and according as black or white predominates the shade is dark or light. The gray cheviots come in four weights and three shades and are forty-fou- r inches wide, with three intermediate shades in twilled cheviots. This makes six shades to choose from. Plain black cheviots and camel's hair will be worn more than they have been for many seasons. Home of them will be braided very closely in dark red, green and blue. Black camel's hair comes in four weights, forty-fou- r inches wide, and makes elegant and durable dresses, but rather better suited to home wear than the street, while the new gray cheviots are equally suited for both. A very pretty light gray cheviot can be made up to be a thing of beauty and a joy as long as a thread of it lusts, and that will . , SF.ORET9 TO TKLL. more until the season at the fashionable resorts has gotten into full swing. Last week I helped a couple of young friends of mine to pack for Saratoga. But - before I say much about the dresses let me tell how they wore packed, so that each dress will look on fresh and orisp after a month's wear as if just from the hands of the fairy godmother. There is for each dress a large, flat, paste-board box some 8 feet long and abont 18 inches wide by 4 deep. These boxes are quite, bntnot un usually, strong. The dress skirt u taken at the middle of the belt and at the bottom in front and then held tight and laid flat on bed or floor, and the back folded lengthwise in three folds and kept without wrinkles, and is patted and pulled out qnite smooth. Then this is liiid carefully into the box nd folded down to fit in without press-ing. The waist is also folded neatly nnd laid in the box, both skirt and bodice right side out. If the dross does or does not quite fill the box a sheet of fine tissue paper is laid over it. Each dress is placed in its separate box, and the name of it written on the top so that there will be no con-fusion. Each gown has its lace sewn in neck or sleeves aud its ribbon trimming in the same box, so that it is also kept iu its best condition. We will suppose that one of these two pretty iris is relating this secret to her dearest friend. Among the dressos which Milly carried away was one which she told lne she expected would be very ef-fective at the races, where she wonld nearly always have a background of Rreen. It was of cream colored India silk with cardinal flowers, the skirt caught up in a tangled mass of wrinkles on each side, forming partial paniers. The sleeves, sash and vest front were of cardinal surah, while the hut and parasol both beamed in the same fervid color. Hpanish trimming of cardinal crocheted Vandyke lace added a final touch to the costume. The cream color in the groundwork tones down the brilliance of the red. ' The other young lady had a pretty dress in old rose veiling and surah, made with pinked out Vandykes over knife plaitings on the front of the skirt. Her parasol and hat trimming matched the j?own, over the shoulders and around the neck of which she wore lace fulls. . Some of the pretiaost dresses of the sea son are for afternoon wear on tho piaz-r.asa- nj in general. I took special no-tice of two; one was of figured challie in jiearl gray with green foliage and roses in medium sized patterns all over it, with a border. The underskirt was Vnife plaitod, and the challie draped in veet front and across in a most graceful way. A Spanish jacket of green velvet trimmed with gold embroidery extends into panels on the Bides. Tho sleeves are tit challie with velvet cans aud cuffs. WAISTS. be long, following the illustration found herewith, which is princesse, with the front drawn quite plain and grace-fully draped. Another pretty style is a dork gray, soft finish diagonal cheviot, made up in combination with gray and white plaid twill, which I forgot to mention, and is shown in great variety of sieee and stylos of plaid pattern. I give a few pretty waists which ladies can easily make up for themselves of India, surah or wash silks, to wear over odd skirts. These waists are very fash-ionable aud equally pretty, and are worn in the street as well as at home. Also I present three fichus which are exceeding-ly pretty nnd can be made by any lady, and worn over almost any dress they add grace and daintiness. There will be more new fall goods open by next week, Ouvk Harpeb. PRETTY AJPTEKNOON GOWSS. The other is of beige colored India silk, with polka doteof ailernatered and blue. The dress is cut princess style, and draped in a manner easily understood by referring to the illustration. Tho dark part is of ooquelicot red surah. A rod ribbon ties the hair and encircles the neck. All that is required to complete these toilets for the promenade is to don hats to match the costume and to take parasols or funs as the hour is early or late. JNEW Yohk., D uly it is svrangc thing, but it is true, and I don't suppose anybody on earth would believe it, un-less positive proof was offered, and 'so 1 tell it not expecting to be believed, but woiuenkind are now occupying their minds very seriously on what is to be worn this fall.

Th Demand! ef Culture. To be wrapped vip in self, to disregard all appearances, aud to fhow an indiffer-ence amounting to contempt for the opinions aud the esteem of others, is certainly selfish and unlovely. Yet to live without any special individuality, to bask only in the smile of the pnblic, and to wither at its neglect, is equally egotifltical and narrow. Both imply that unmixed self love which is wholly occupied in searching for its own happi-ness, Jiough iu different ways. When men and women come to lie thoroughly interested in something outsido of self, they forget about thoir own special preferences, and accept cither privacy or publicity, according to the degree in which either can be made subservient to the subject in hand. There is no other cure for the self can sciousness which makes one person shy and reserved and another vain and boast-- 1 ful; which makes one person scorn and ignore his fellow men and another live only in the light of their attention aud applause. True culture demands suffi-cient privacy to preserve individuality, and sufficient publicity to do all tie good that is possible, "and he who so combines them in his own person secures some of the most necessary element of a valuahle and a happy life.
