DAILY BEE: SUNDAY Delletonsly Smart and Pretty in Ma. terinl and Colors. NEW YORK, June 6.—Black evening gowns have no falling off in popularity, though the smartest summer dancing and dinner tollets are all of purest whits, 'Blderly women and buds just timidly peep- ing from the school room, and belles of gorgeous propensities in cloths, indulge alike thelr weakness for the snow drift ltke costumes.

Each one of the gowns made of such materials lie long upon the floor, but from hip to heel the fabric must drop quite stralght, and to accomplish this perpen- dicularity of line the wily dressmaker lines the clinging materials on the Ilimpest florence silk or makes a foundation petti- TWO CHARMING SUGGESTIONS FOR CHILDREN'S FAS!

We use the true color advisedly, for, in the shops and fitting rooms, we hear glb talk of lemon white, ash white, shell white, porcelain white, flesh white, rose white, almond white, and then the more famillar descriptions of ivory, pearl and oyster white. Every name here given sig- nifies a quality of whiteness that may be more or less becoming to the complexion, Balr and eyes of different women., A di tinct and deliclous character s given nearly all the white costumes by the use of laces that range, in the quality of their colors ing, from the palest lemon to gray, antique, tea color and soft cafe au lait.

An eveniug dress worked out to completion without the use of lace is mot to be imagined and encouraged in this day of fine needle work, and it remained for Paris to send us robes of delicate Louis Belze point applique enriched with entre deux, bold flounces, berthas, fronts, panels and sleeves of Irish crochet. A White Quartet. A group of four agreeable white tollets, contrived most gracefully and inexpensively with lace, give timely illustration to the present urgument. The frock in the chair shows how a fine transparent almond white canvas, dropped upon a white lining is gar- landed and medallioned with cream white Austrian crochet lace. A few straps of shining, flat, white silk brald are stitched on the sleeves and breast of the bodioce, and, to the Tear of this most graceful frock stands a pretty decollete thing of ecriep white Swiss, adorned with lnsertions made of broad honiton beading. A tiny vest of mock honlton is set in the front below two itiny coral pluk ribbon rosettes, and here we have a positively ideal gown for the girl who yearns to present a picturesque and \ashionable appearance for the modest out- lay of about $10. . Two tucked mulls, with cosrse Marie (Antolnette Valenciennes insertions of & strong tea tone are the materials of the two other frocks, that are topped by broad Mat yokes of heavy white escurial lace. 'With all these gowns the skirts it the hips with glove-like neatness and flare to ihitherto unusual width at the floor.

Meanwhile of an evening our walsts grow longer and longer. This s due to the astonishing evening corsets. They are made, those of the very last French pattern, in two pleces. The corset proper is hardly more than a perfectly stralght fronted, heavily boned, extra long hipped girdle. Powerful elastic hose supporters &re ap- pHed in order to drag this girdle down over the abdomen as far as it can go, and the unconfined bust is held firm by a slightly boned, but close buttoning corset cover that does not extend so far as the walst line. Provided with these alds to beauty the average swell, young American woman presents an appearance of almost ethereal slendernes when arrayed in her white evening gown. Tucked Tollets. The history of tucks has yet to be writ- ten and the story of their vogue and varia- tions is sure to fill a fat volume. Next in order of popularity after white comes the pale ecru, cafe a la creme and delicate bisque mull, batiste, chiffon and liberty silk gown. This Is always tucked and often from the shoulder to the tip of the extensive train. The gauszy, tawny goods 1s cast upon a silk petticoat of color and the tucks and ipsets of lace give all the varlety and decoration desired. The tuck- ings know no law and she whose gown's surface is pinched in the most various and impossible crinkles has reached the tops most notch of smartne Tiny tucks ray out from imset lace medallions, or describe ever widening circles about a wreath of lace; tucks run in a plaid or diamond figure all over a skirt, or those that alter- nate one wide tuck with six of the nar- rowest possible pinchings are among the newest inventions of the hour. The ecru and biscult-colored gowns are very happily set off in many {nstances with treatments of black baby velvet rib- bon. A pretty exemplification is given in a sketch of a sunburnt silk gauze dropped over an undersiip of pure coral rose. Below the lace edged Vandyke flounce, that hangs at the knees, extends a flaring flounce ridged with tucks. Every tuck Is bor- dered with a line of black baby velvet ribbon and this decoration is repeated on the frilled bolero and sleeve tops. At three points along the top of the bodice clasps of coral hold fast the edging bands of black velvet, and here it Is necessary to say that shoulder curls are worn less and coral beads are worn more than during the last winter. The coral bead craze is but just beginuing; it promises, however, to grow in favor with the net boa, and the green vell and _the geranlum toque of well nigh uni- versal predominance, and to utterly destroy the spheres of influence once so exclusively occupled by mock pearls. Handkerchiefs and Coiffur One of the most exquisitely frivolous and inexpensive novelties, recently introduced as an accompsniment to the evening toilet, is the minute lace and tinted batiste hand- kerchief that is cut, trimmed and colored to represent s flower. There are pansy, rose, violet and petunia handkerchiefs that are shaped like any onme of these flowers pressed or painted on the flat, and though they can nmot endure hard usage they are than four Marrie Women Every woman covets s shapely, pretty figure, and many of them deplore the loss of their girlish forms after mesriage.

Some women, who are brave or beautiful, boldly dress their hair low of an evening and enjoy the comfortable consciousness that it 1s better to be fashionable than good looking. Other women, and these last are greatly in the majority, dress their hair high after 6 o'clock in the evening, and pompadour and ondule the front chevelure a8 vigorously as ever. Very smart young women bind their locks with lengths of parrow, but exquisitely painted white satin ribbon, the bow of which stands up with coquettishly polnted ends after having been pulled through a gold wire buckle studded with brilliants. All the women, however, have united In the use of demiamber tuck- ing and pompadour combs. These have short widely set teeth and bowed tops that are very heavy, quite smooth and very highly polished.

Happlly girls of ages from 4 to 14 give no thought at all to the arrangement of their hair. Tots in knee long skirts have their locks cropped in Florentine fashion for summer and their prettiest hot weather gowns are of brown, white, pink or lilac linen, cut open in the neck, short in sleeves and as brief in the skirt as the kilt of a Highlandman. It is the custom to box pleat the fullness of the wee smocks, for kilted simplicity is well esteemed this sum- mer by the juveniles. How well this sim- ple and anclent fashion may be adapted to rather elegant uses is shown In the pretty blue sprigged pongee gown worn by a miss of 14.

JULIA'S BEAU AND HER PARENTS, A Pointed and Breesy Chat on a Tenaer Subject. A fond mother sald to me the other evening, when I was begging her not to cut short her call, “Oh, I must hurry home. my daughter, Julia, and I've got to be there." Then she hurried Julla’s beau. It Is almost pathetic sometimes to see how concerned mothers, and often fathers, 100, are in regard to the entertainment of Julia’s beau, writes Mrs. Helen Oldfield in the Chicago Tribune. Mother bustles in and out and shows George, or Percy, or Harold, or whatever his name is, the new tidy she is crocheting or the antique silver teapot she bought at the bargain sale last week. After mother is through for the time belng, father commences on how he drove back to whole confederate army at Shiloh and finishes with dismal prophecies on the base ball outlook. Then mother bethinks herself of a table that she wants to buy and gets George's opinion on the subject, George's opinion, by the way, be- bome to entertain the | George is coming over this evening to see | |down the street.

I {like Miss Nesser immensely, but Pa Nesser oft the track with one hand when he was a boy, and it tired me out.” It Julla’s parents are not actually enter- talning George in the parlor they are often found intrenched behind A screen or a por- tlere In the library and ever and anon make their presence known by a rustling of paper or deep-toned conversation that has a most sinister sound. In fact, too many parents seem to act as though their daughters must be under a mosc careful and rigid espionage, which, if they look at it right, 18 a grave reflection on the girl's early training. A home s the place where a girl should receive and entertain her men friends, but I don't wonder that so many Julias prefer to recelve their company on the hard ledge of the sea wall or an iron bench in the park. Parents have a perfect right to look carefully after thelr children, but when a girl is grown ehe should not be watched like a suspected bank cashier who is belng spotted by Pinkertons. Try as hard as they will, parents cannot prevent a daughter | trom meeting whom she will anywhere she pleases, It sho pleases.

Then | mother is anxious for George to sally out |to the dining room and see her window ibox and the new rhododendron she bought |at the department store for only 95 cents when the flower stores wanted to charge her $2.25 for exactly the same thing. By this time father is commencing to yawn and 1s winding the parlor clock with more pa- rade chen if it were Big Ben in London, and George and Julla finally have a chance to talk together, Julia saying: “I am so glad you called” and George eaying “Thank you, I've had a splendid time. Good night.” Then he closes the door from the outside and down the street, saying things under bis breath. 1 know & young man who for & while was attentive to a sweet girl that lived By this time father has gained | the young man came to call on father or mother Julla might as well be excused and sent to bed. Julia would not be driven to the sea wall or the parks if she could feel that her company would be as much her own in her home. Nelther does Julia like to feel that two people are sitting silent and stern behind the portiere embankment chalking dewn notes on what may be callea at the breakfast able the next morping a frivolous and unedifying conversation. T would also like to ask that Julla shoula bave been so reared that she will know how to gracefully dismiss her company without papa’s dropping his shoes with a Beavy clang on the bedroom floor above. Altogether, I really think that Julla should be so trained that when she is a young woman she may be safely trusted to entertain her company without the sonstant and personal supervision of her parents.

Gros de tours s one of the fashionable summer silks. It resembles taffet in quality, but has a soft finished slightly repped surface. Some of the more elaborate medallions so extensively used this season show a blend- ing of Honfton, Russian and fine Chantilly lace in the design. Little bands of velvet ribbon passing across from side to side over the front or vest impart a pretty finish to blouses of crepe de chene or soft satin.
