Then there was a deep corselet ceiu turo mado of real old Valenciennes lace, and a Puritan collar of tho samo luce fell over the shoulders. The sleeves wore long and tight with cuned petal cuffs of lace falling ocr tho wrists, and at the 'waist there was a cluster of taffetas flowerssmall asters lu exquisite shades of purplo and pink This Idea of trimming black silk frocks with old jtllow Valenci ennes Ih very Pailsian; It it also ex ceedingly effective The buttons on the front of the simple little bodlco were small balls of filigree silver The fashions of the seasou follow ing the lines of tho summer shador an they do. leave the designers at leisure to develop new Ideas in thoso adjuncts of the toilette that glvo a froc'c Its ntw aspect of attraction Thus it was found that the wide skirt trimmed at the foot with galon and fringe w in the case of the frock that was seen, was a thorough chance afUr the acal- AMj cmbroldui) Is qulto the most desirable trimming ono roa have, no mutter whu; tho continue inuy be, nnd ono of tin very luteal Ideus Is to hao tho dress inudo up by tho dressmaker, und wheu II Is finished thu wearer pul In her idle moments decorating H lu Plain, but my conspicuous ntltchcs.
