Here girlhood and woman

the girl for the one day oi uays wnen
Bhe receives the bit of ' parchment
which seals her school life. -
In this season of revived fashions
and fabrics, the nroblem simplifies it
self to some extent, for all styles are
youthful. One need only visit the large
Mtnn.a in unm-eciate the variety offer
ed in these frocks. La la, you fair ,
maidens, wrestling with the quibs and
questions of your last examinations,
you should be with me in the great
metropolis! On the spacious fourth
floor of a house devoted solely to the
needs of the girl, there are mahogany
cases, filled with frothy white dresses,
stretching away row after row, like
the battalions of an army. It is sel
dom you find so large an assemblage
of frocks for one purpose, and age,
collected in one pluce. Here you can
bo outfitted from tip to toe, with the
style and suitability of the garments
assured. ' : - V .." :'y ; 1
At first glance;" it" seems the whole
graduating world is to be gowned in
net so completely does the fabric dom
inate the collection, no doubt it is the
extremely full skirt that brings this
material so noticeably to the fore; but
regardless of the cause, the effect is
charming in the quaint Empire, bodice
and bolora dresses, showing featu-r
from old fashions such as short, puffed
sleeves and narrow ruffles. Valencien
nes, filet and imitation Irish crochet,
repeated again and again in the trim
ming, reminds one forcibly of the time
ly revival of these three laces. There
are frocks, too, where heavy embroid
ery is used in the ornamentation;
others edged with half-inch shirred
ribbon, here and there a model touched
with taffeta. One frock in particular
of the last type the new luccd front
bodice, rippling peplum, and applied
hem of the silk. The guimpc, showing
above and between the lacings of the
bodice; the sleeves, puffed until they
resemble toy balloons and the skirt,
with its entire width gathered in at
the waist are of not.' A half-blown
rose of delicate pink, tacked above
the hem, gives a touch of color, which
makes the net and taffeta seem the
purer white for the contrast- It might
be well to add here, while speaking of
the rose, that all the frocks have this
bit of color and are named according
to the flower they show. The model
mentioned is the rose dress; the Mar
guerite frock has a chain of daisies
around the waist and the pansy dress
a corsage bouquet of deep purple
pansicH as the name implies.
These touches and trimmings are
also corried out in frocks of other fab
rics; introduced, perhaps, to diversify
the net modols or for the few who do
not care for such transparent mater
ial as the net. As the styles themselves
hint of old-time fashions so those tex
tures, hnve their origin in the modes
of from 1840 to 1850. Sheer Swiss,
plain and embroidcricd. batiste, point
d'esprit organdy and dimity show to
good effect with Vnleqciennes lace.
Only two .really modern materials are
used and these are cotton crepe, and
voile.
Since so many of the schools have
set the limit of three dollars for the
cost of the frock, the stores also fea
ture inexpensive fabrics by the yard,
the goods draped on forms to show the
various styles in which to make it up.
There are dainty cross-barred dimities
Swisses, plain and cmbroidaried batis
tes, voiles and crepes for twenty cents
a yard; nets at forty-cents come seven-ly-
two inches wide. The dotted Swiss
is unusually attractive as one draper
arranges it, in an Empire effeffct. The
trimming is suggested also. At the
Dutch neck and elbow sleeves Vulenci
ennes lace is applied; also on the skirt
in Grecian border above the hem.
Trimness the chief charm of the frock
is again in evidence in the broad girdle
of moire ribbon, brought straight
Around the Empire waistline and fin
ished at the back with a flat bow and
long streamers.
Gloves, for the graduation frock are
Cenerally of plain silk. Many well-to
do mothers are buying their daughters'
silk gloves in place of. the formal white
kid; the effect is more girlish and they
are much cooler for 'warm weather. To
be sure there are fancy models shown
and in good taste, too. A silk glove,
pin-tucked around and around the
wrist, a half-inch apart, or delicately
embroidered, may be worn; the new
lace glove, too, is perfectly appropri
ate for the girl graduate.
. The medium heel on the shoes is
another feature of the fashions shown
for graduation that the mother, at leas
will like. 1 hese appear, slightly curved
in the approved French style, on slip
pers of white kid with colonial buckles
and on white satin pumps with flow
ers in front to match the flower of the
frock. This makes one thing that the
makers of slippers and the makers of
frocks have held some secret sessions
this season. Nor are the styles confined
alone to white; black patent leather is
considered equally appropriate) for
the graduate, especially if worn with
white stockings. There is a pretty mo
del shown with flat heel and crossed
laces of ibbonWhich,bi'ing8 to mind
Crinoline days, when tiny slippered
feet peeped from beneath the folds of
the hoop skirt.
The simplicity of the fashions al
lows but little jewelry. Such touches
as a string of pearls, a torquoise lock
et, or a heavy gold bracelet, are em
ployed to give the desired old-time at
mosphere. The hair however, is decid
edly modern, but so artistic that it in
nowise spoils the quaintness of the
costume. The bobbed effect is the most
popular coiffure for the young girl.
This may sound as if the younger
generation are recklessly cutting off
their hair; do not be misled for such is
not the case. Some Clever Miss lately

conceived the idea of combing her
hair back straight in front, low over
the ears and winding it in loose coil
in back. Her friend copied it and
now all the young girls have the
effect of the castle clip without the
"clip" and the originator of the-fad,
who cut her hair close, envies them
their lone tresses. Since the first
cirl wound her hair in this knot in
back, so manv have adopted the mode
that pins have been especially de
signed for the knot. Thev consist of
a single straight spike with ball or
slendor triangular top of amber, jet
or tortoise shell, roignaras, tne
French call them; in plain English
they are daggers. One of these pins
