like fabric.

There is a fancy for checked silks as well as pin-spot fabrios; and, owing to the flimsiness of the materials, flounces have returned to favour; for the airy textures necessitate much inoro elaborato trimmings than do the more sübstanial manufactures. The fine line check voiles are v

very popular. Foulards are also in evidence, more especially the large pattern ones and those with big spots. Tussore silk is in favour, the écru or brownish being very fasionable. Embroidered linen gowns are much worn. The summer fashions really favour rather short waists, much trimmed skirts for thin materials, untrimmed skirts- for substantial materials.

Some of the newest skirts are flounced to the knees, others have three wide inki sertions of lace let in one just above the hem, another just beneath the knees and one mid-way between them and waist.:

Plato has said that each human being is in himself, or herself, the great year. There is the human sowing time, the grow- ing time, the woeding time (what a troublous time that is apt to be), the irrigating, and the' harvest.
