Parisian Models for Easter- tide. This week is to be exceedinely gay, and numerous are the beautiful frocks being designed for tne dinners, dances and lunches, so a description of some Parisian fons will be welcome. At arecent dinner several gowns were especially mentioned, among others cne of velvet-glace hortensia and mauve, made with a long plain skirt and low peinted bodice with tulle and tufts of hydran- gea round the low-cut neck. Speaking oi evening toilettes the fad for the mo- ment is to have the necks all cut square, and they are not as low as formerly. A youthful bride possesses a rarely charm- ing white taffeta; #he low bodice is veiled with fine lace covered with & dainty pat- tern; a full lace flounce is arranged =0 as to fall as an epaulet over the short, slightly puffed sleeves of the taffeta, which are first veiled with tulle sprinkled | beads that sparkle like dew- drops under the lace. Two lace shawls are used to drape the skirt, but how they are so carefully manipulaicd Is 8 mystery which only an expert dressmaker could comprehend. White orchids and convolvuli adorn the bodice, and the convolvuli are to be great favorites for both hats and gowns this summer. The same bride is reported to be a vision of loveliness in a dinner | costume of rich tinted velours moire | | head; | sk, daisies, pansies and lilies of the valley— have been so improved as to makeall those msde in the years gone by look very | ordinary. | One of the new modelsis a black gauze dress, with narrow satin stripes, tie skirt | plain in front, plisse st the back, edged | with a small gathered flounce with pleate | at the top of this skirt a wide cream lace is laid on flat, to simulate long | pointed basques; the same lace placed on the bodice meets it in front and thus sim- | ulates a long jacket front, drawn in with a white satin waistbana with bow at the | back.

The train was adorned on the left side with & twist | of pink tulie, held in at intervals with pink ribbons. On the left side was a long trail of white lilacs and roses that followed the side seam of the train. Thelow bodice was really delighifully pretty, being of pink and white tulls ornamented with flowers. Ball dresses are being made in large numbers of white or colored tullein Paris, London and New York. The tulle is iiterally covered with spangles, and is draped or pleated over white or colored slips. The skirts are round, and the bodices lavistly trimmed with tutle and the most wonderful of artificial fowers; and this season great advance hns been made in the art of menufacturing flowers; | indeed, it may be aimost said that man has succeeded in rivaling nature in the perfection of his hanaiwork, for blossoms never reproduced belore are now Lo be had, and our favoritgs—ibe roses, violets, | | | | of the back and fronta wide band of white embroidery over orange silk going down, witha vandyke of black veivet on each side. The sleeves, gathered -at the seam, bouffant at the top, waistband of orange silk with small bow standing up at tne back. A good gown of black satin—made here—has on the skirt a series of three irilis of accordion-plaited scarlet tulle; the biack bodice is covered with the tulle, and the square neck is outlined with a | row of the brightest crimson poppies, with velvety black centers. The belt is of black | satin. Such a combination is correct at the present moment when a dash of crimson is declared the thing about aimost every costume and hat; indeed so greatly is it in favor that I hear of one leader of fash- ion who has ordered a complete set of crimsoa lingerie, as that color is most be- coming to her. I certainly do not care for such fads n underwear, preferring white, the palest blue or a delicate pink. Even gloves are stitched in crimson, eutire para- sols of scariet silk are shown, but, excepte ing for use at the seaside or in the coun- try, they are to be most carefully avoided, | being far too gay and conspicuous for gen- eral use, Foulards are justiy popular, so excellent and cheap are they, and so lovely when | handled carefuily. One of our best-known Louses here has been selling them at 50 cents per yard, snd those offered have | been artistic in design and dainty in coi- | oring. Imagine how a Sevres blue fou- | lard would look made with a skirt plain at the top, having three flounces round the | bottom edged with black lace and headed with a band of white lace put on in scal- lops! The foulard bodice fits snugly and | is beautified at the top with wide plisses, forming a deep collar with white lace; | long gathered sleeves, with pleated flounces forming epaulets at the shoulders. Gray is exceedingly fashionabie, and one chic gown of the new satin cloth is made with>a basqued jacket which has open fronts. A white satin band encir- cles a slender waist and is secared in the back with two rhinestone buttons. The vest is of white chiffon crossed just beiow the neck with a latticework of nar- row green velvet helu down with tiny rhinestone buttons, Tae vest is made over white satin, but the lining of the en- tire gown is of a taffeta silk light green in shade. Another visiting dress is made of one of the new soft corded woolens of ths fashionable amoke shade. The front of | the bodice displays linea of drawn thread interminzling with rows of gold and black embroidery, made up pinafore fashion over white satin and chiffon, a frill of lace at the throat, and the sleeves arranged with diagonal tucks in sets of three. It was accompanied by a short cape, like a sacque - backed coat with cape sleeves. The bat was quite charming, black, and was trimmed with the new brilliant gauze and black plumes, but made with a doa- ble brim, having soit cerise poppies peep- ine between the two.

Scme I much admire have wide pink and white stripes figured in moire effect. Of course all colors are obtainable and make up charmingly. In all the linen shades are shown the Egyptian ard the Lavpett tissues, as well as in every tint and color. These must all be made over solid colors, presumably over silk slips, although I see one writer says on this sub- *The silk underdresses, however, are no longer considered indispensable, and the colored lawns which are used in- | Still stead do not cost nearly so much.” I advise you ali to keep on using silk if | you wish such frocks to be a success, for the saving of a few dollars will eause you | more annoysnge than enough if you have the usual experience with lawns.

Tnose in mourning are welcoming, with a feeling of reiiel, the very handsome eta- mines, which are made over the best tal- feta silk for summer wear. They are de- | lightfully cool and comfortable. So great is the beauty of the new bro- caded silks that both the young and old | will order them in large quantities for dinner gowns, and the colored etamines are simply bewitching on account of their possibilities of combinations, especially | when ribbons and oriental embroiderias are artistically employed. From Paris has just come a gown in which lettuce green is used as a good con- trast to a dark blue fancy canvas. The double materials are novelties illustrated by a pink figured canvas, with black grenadine interwoven on its surface. In another French dress this formed the skirt, sleeves and back of the bodice, the full front being of satin that matched the canvas, and over it was & black lace zouave with white lace applique and jet; extending down the front wasa plisse of chiffon and butter-colored - insertion, which was also carried arount the throat. Mohair canvas will continue in favor for all dusty occasions and the kixmet suiting | isto be extensively worn for golf and | bicycle suits. Walking. The art of walking is certainly not un- derstood by many women, and a eritic, writing from New York, anxiously in- quires why so many well-built, styhsh young women are waiking heel first, jerk- ing their shouiders and moving their arms with a rotary motion. Such questions | would take some time to answer, for cer- tain most ungraceful motions of the body have been taken up at times by foolish young women, who would have more sense could they but realize how com- pletely they ruin the effect and style of the most chic of gowns and jackets by such nonsense. It is perlectly true that most children are not taught to walk properly, they teach themselves with greater or less suc- cess, A bright American, while visiting at Aix les Bains, met a young woman, with whom she took several long walks. After the first excursion she began to notice that her companion felt less fatigue than she did, and always returned with her skirts in excellent condition, even when the roads had been sither muddy or dusty. This state of affairs caused her considerable surprise, so at Jength she asked foran explanation, and was prom pt- ly told that her acquaintance had taken a course of walking lessons, so she writes: **Isoon sought her instructor, and have ever since profited by his in- struction. Now Iam mistress of the situ- ation as well, and can likewise not only walk greater distances and with - less | fatigue than formerly, and return with garments equally nice, but I find that said garments will remain in condition longer than before, and that my carriage is astonishingly improved. ‘The following is the formuls, which is given here in order that men, women and children may become their own trainers and instructors, if they have first the de- sire to do all thinzs aswell as possible: Hold the body erect, with the head up; walk from the waist, not the knees; bend the knees, pick up the feet and walk on the ball of the foot. This insuresa cer- tain elasticity and buoyancy, so that the pedestrian almost feels that he is tread- ing on air or walking on rubber tires, soto speak.” How to Lift Our Skirts. At least a dozeu times L have wished to touch on this topic, but could not satisfy myself that I had made my explanation | lucid, but Vogue covers the potnts I de- sired to make clear in :hese few lines: ‘““Throw the extra back fulluess of the | skirt over the back of the hand (which should be closed) and placed as a handle at one side of the bodv and slightly bend | the forearm forward. he fullness of tie skirt. will thus be found to remain in place, and will not cause the fatigue to the nand ana wrist that one experiences in the | old way of holding so much weight of material in the band. This s a decided saving on gloves, since it does not stretch them, or soil them, or cause the hand to become overheated, and skir:s lifted in this way look much more graceful than There is no particular style that governs this newest method of selecting costumes, except the individuality of the person Who is to wear what is sought. The effect 1s invariably successful. A recent instance of this was the caseof a very graceful young woman who wore a dre:s copied from one seen in a painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds. This dress was veiled in lace, and boasted of a train clev- erly disposed like a regal mantle of red velvet, & deep Venetian royal red that matched the liquid light of rubies. One very pleasant fealure of this idea is that it enables the use of costumes worn ever so long ago, and which the owners nad possibly believed to be so thoroughly out of style that it would be hopeless to try to utiliza them. Itisa fact thatany style, 1f it is only a picture dress, will do, always provided it 18 becoming, and tnis hasresuited in many a fashionable woman | saving balf her usual wardrobe expenses. There is nothing difficult sbout follow- ing this fashion. All that one need to do is to visit the portrait section of some art gallery, and there find the picture of some lady of long ago robed in a fashion which will be traly becoming to the visitor. Chen she can say when she dons her new | gown, even though it be an old one fixed | over, that she bad made it after the stvle of the dress worn by one of the ladies whom Sir Joshua Reynolds had painted, | or that it was an exact copy of the attire | of a Gainsborough beauty. Certainly it is a very clever fad, and as this is the season | of economy, or rather the year of it, every | woman should hail the idea with extreme satisfaction. }-pi:e of the inevitable handicap of sex. anything about the game do not require'a teacher, who can only explain the intrica- cies of golf, but one who understands what it means to play in skirts and cor- sets. Therefore, here is another opening for feminine enterprise, as no man could Ppossibly teach them how to overcome the problem of petticoats in relation to this game, as for them golf must be modified, it being impossible for a woman to com- pete with men on even terms hampered with her skirts. An experienced golfer says: “The pro- fessional man golfer, ic whatever country you find bi is not able to teach a woman to ‘drive,’ ‘put’ or ‘lift’ in a grace- ful woman fashion. Put him into a woman’s dress, and perhaps he might in time evolve some goli-strokes leveled down to skirt limitation, but it is doubt- ful. Start woman professionals, and vhe game will assume a more charming as- pect. And women who at present play a | shocking game because they are striving | to rival a man’s attitude and mannerism might play admirably if they learned their strokes from & woman’s point of view.” | Undoubtedly these sentimentsaralauda- | ble ones. The'danger of most sports is that women are apt to emulate men in But I must confess I should prefer seeing novices taught to play the game in a womanly way by competent amateurs, simply for the love ‘of the thing, without widening the already too wide bounds of professionalism.

GOLF AND CYCLING SUITS. There is to be s distinctive line drawn this summer between golf and cycle suits, and briefly it may be said that golf knickers will have quarier-cuifs of bod: cloth closing with four or five button:, Cyele knickers will not have quarter-cuffs, but a strap buckle at the knee. Many men, however, will pay but slight atten- tion to this distinction; not a few like the quarter-top and turned-over-top go:f hose, and will not make the change at fashion’s dictate. C.C. - Shoe Eyelets. There are many things which are. sold by the gross, and not a few that are sold by the tuousand, but there are not many that are sold by the million. Among the things that are so sold, however, are shoe evelets. Shoe evelets are made of brass by ma- chines, whose operation is almost entirely automatic. Three or four machines are re- quired to produce the eyelet in tke form in which it is sold, the brass being fed into the first machine in thin, flat strips. As sold to the shoe-manufacturer the eyelct 1s turned down at one end only. The eye- lets look as much asanything likeso many little hats with narrow brims and without any tops in the crowns. The upper end of the crown, which is like the end of a little cylinder, is put through the eyelet bole in the shoe, the finished brim or flange of the eyelet resting against the leather upon the outside. Aiter the eye- let has thus been put in place its inner end is turned down upon the leather by & machine made for that purpose. In the manufacture of the eyeletsa number of very slight vertical indentations are made at equal distances apart in the outside of the eyelet around the smooth, straight end. When the shoe machmme smashes down the inner side of the eyelet the metal parts at these indentstions and is” spread untformly, thus giving it a secure bold. T Eyelets are made of various sizes in di- ameter and of various lengths of shank or cylinder, according to the thickness of the outof ten a proper amount of interest in | material with which they are to be used, his customer. | and after they come from the machines In this country the sack coat is very | they are finished in great variety.

They are in style, as I before noted, as our handker- | fact made in any size and of any color chiefs must be kept out of sight, and in 10 coat whatever can there be more than | two outside pockets, and the frock coat | never has any vis.b e one. The felt hat is in vogue in London, and some of the best turned out young men | are ordering hats to match the color of | their suits, grays and browns of many | tones being in demand. The evening shirt with a single stud is not in favor, those having three being | now considersd corract. | Cuffs are now perfectly square in shane, and the collar may be said to be higher and more uncompromising than ever. | Smart men occasionally wear detached | collars, but detached cuffs are not permis- | sible. Him tells us that for the evening we may “wear small gold studs of a dull fin- | ish. Link cuff buttons of go!d—Roman | finish—with your monogram engraved | thereon. Wear no other jewelry, good, | bad or indifferent.” Concerning gloves I note that dogskin | and chevette will be the smartest, for | glace kids are too shiny and dressy and | the white kid excepting for evening wear | has vanisbed, but it is still worn at many that may be desired. Sooner or later the japanning wears off, exposing the brass. Toere are now ma ie sho eyelets that are covered with celiuloid, which keep their color, but these are much more expensive than the kind commonly nsed. Shos eyvelets are packed in boxes con- taining 1000, 10000, 100,000, 250,000 and 500,000 each. Eve.ets of the kinds most commonly used are sold, according to sizes and styles, at prices ranging irom $6 to $135a million. Some of the celluloid eyelets sell for as much as $500 a million. The sale of shoe-eyelets depends, of course, somewhat upon the prevailing stvle of shoe. When button-shoes are more generally worn not so many shoe- eyelets are sold, but the number sold is always very large. Eyelets are mude for a wide variety of uses, up to the great eyelets thatare sewed into the corners of sails, through which | sail is lashed to the end of the boom or yard. Taking them altogether tne ber is enormons.

Thos: who have enjoyed weekly the bright and wit'y stories told by Aibert D). Vandam doubtless were given food for re- flection when they read this paragraph: “Women who have not had the com- mand of money all their lives, and who suddenty find themselves able to spend large, or comparatively large, sums on dress, provided dress appeals to them, generally traverse three periods. They begin by ordering extravagantly and in- di-criminatingly, flinging money broad- cast. Thena period of discrimination— one might say of deliberate hyperer cism— sets in, which costs to the full as much as the tirst. They no longer wish to look like every one else, but aim at ex- clusiveness of material as well as cat. The third period is the attempt to replace the waning charms by every means the milliner, dressmaker and hairdresser can suggest, and at no matter what cost.” In Olivia Ellen Terry has been wearing a bewitch- ingcap whichis being universaily copied, so I describe it as best [ can. Itiscaught | up in & point with a knot of ribbon above the hair and frames the face most fascinat- ingly. Ihbave changed my mind; instead of a description allow me to refer you to an illustrated copy of the Vicar of Wake- field. 1tis said to be a correct reproduc- tion of the capin which we usually see the fair Olivia. Exactly when our fair maids are going to wear such caps the corre- spondent does not state and I sam at a loss. to understand. However, we must know all that is going on in the fashionable world, so do not say I have so much as omitted a cap. In this quaint play we can readily com- prehend how great an effect the delightful frocks produce, for in those days the women draped the softest and creamiest of muslin fichus about their throats, frilled their short sleevesand looped back their gowns to show a bright petticoat of crim- son stuff. These costumes .were so well received that one fashion journal goes so far as to predict that before the summer is over we will be wearing very similar dresses, but in England the revivalof the early Vic- torian styles is being warmly discussed and one fair Duchess will shortly give a great ball at which all her guests will wear the garments fashioned after those of sixty years ago. Eastern Noveities. A bright mind has evolved a new idea which promises to become very nopular, and deservedly so. It is called picture- dressing, and is the resuit of careful studies made by modistes of portraits of women painted by famous artists, Tt looks more and more as if embroidery was going 10 play a more important part than ever in evening dress. Plain skirts will suraly look conspicuous. The em- broidery is filling up the hiatus between the absence of any trimming atail and draped and trimmed skirts which are coming our way—slowly it may pe, but sarely. The effect of these long lines of fine work in velvet, outlined with silver, crys- tal and brilliants up the seams, is excel- lent. It gives height to the figure and im- portance to the skirt, a part of our dress which during the epoch of voluminous sleeves was somewhat neclected, save only 8o far as fit and cut were concerned. At present the balance is much more equal, and this is greatly to our advantage. It is a fashion, too, that is kind to women who are not tall, and isalso not aitogether out of place with those unfortunate per- sons who are inclined to stoutness, while they lack in height. Of course, there is a wide range in em- broidery, and a dress may be made as costly as one pleases, but the idea is capa- bie of being dilized by all of us whose purses are as short as our wants are long. Then, too, there are many effective sub- stitutes for embroidery. One of these, which I can recommend, is chine gauze ribbon. The design may be outlined and jeweled at home, and the effect is all that could be desired. Then there are jetted and jeweled galons which may be used over and over again. Itis said, too, that before long tapering sprays of embroidery will be sold ail ready to apply 10 the seamsof the even- ing gowns. There are already those in lace which can be wrought with brilliants at intervals and thus made exceedingly effective.
