It 's becoming Or, !f another ventiresome soul pleases her artistic Ideas by looping her skirt with a Jullet pocket and attaching the same to a walst wich Incroyable revers, who ts to ‘ay her nay? A rovival of a very attractive trimming which nas been in use for several seasons, will please many and add to the possibilities of elaborate workmanship-the shirred bands of material with cord sewn in each edge placed In a scroll design or in straight rows. This trimming 1s several centurlea old, but springs up from time to time with &reat success It {s good to note that shorter sleeves are becoming more frequent, and by Summer we will rejoice in our old time comfort The white lingerie gown seems to be a little out of favor, It has become so vulgarized by cheap reproductions. A charming Summer gown was made from a handsome lace robe, which was rut..essly cut in pleces and applied net, tlon of thin belng the motifs tucked net.

Full ruffles of the lace, caught with tho roses entirely covered the skirt, and the parted hair fell tn ringlets over her ears, The final touch waa a bracelet of black velvet tled close around the wrist very close to the hand. This costume suggested a glorified Godey's Ladies' Book rather than Louls XV. I wonder why {t is that we must always go back to s0me previous period for our fashion ideas? Is then all originality dead, and is there no one great enough to create a distinotly new and untried style. Whero are our poor little great great granddaughters to go for their styles? All these overworked perlods will be utterly worn out and useless in the course of time and there will be nothing left to thelr imaginations but the costume of Mother Eve, Perhaps, who knows, they will be so purified and elevated that such mere mundane things as clothes will be utterly scorned, The fancy for jet as a trimming has taken the form of buttons, and they are to be seen In all sizes and are very much +e TTAee Hoa skirt, Which must be held up all the time one is in motion.

But everyone knows that beautiful brocades do not demand the amount of embroidery we have been making use of io give variety to the uniform straight iines of recent gowns, so perhaps things will be somewhat equalized in this way Dealers seem to be anticipating a demand for more ornate materials, for every shop is displaying most wonderful _ brocades, huge and perfect roses in natural-looking clusters on elther black or colored grounds, conventionalized flower designs interwoven with gold or sliver tissue and raised velvet flowers or stripes on very soft and pliable material. : It seems to be pretty well understood by this time that the narrow. straight gown has seen its day, since the neweat Spring models all sugges: fullness around the waist and yet more fullness around the bottom of the skirt This skirt fullness does not yet, however, show any tendency to appear voluminou and spreading around the feet, but is still affection- How UU to Cook tstniars tne t for the animal that plays the title role, "possum dinners have suddenly become very fashionable. Not many know how to serve a ‘possum dinner. In the firat place, the ‘possum himself is of great Importance.

The front of tne waist extending in a long point is another now accepted fact, a style so directly opposed to the straight across effect as to be novel enough to please the most expectant. This will undoubtedly demand the use of a strong plece of steel to keep it in place, as mere whalebone is entirely too flexible. Those who have elaborate and beautiful gowns may go on wearing them with perfect serenity, for surely there Was never a time when so many perlods w suggested, and indeed they so in adapted and so' cambined are many ways, that in whatever directlon one's fancy may lead one {s sure to be somehow correct, whether It be the Empire, Louis XV. or XVI, the Restoration, or the earller mediaeval times.
