bands of suede on the white buckskin shoes, worn with a cream coquella frock; a beaded bag in old rose and old blue, carried in the hand, to match a rosette of the same shaile that fixes the side drapery on a crêpe Mon- tana drape.

In atter contrast to white worn in the daytime, a large number of women wear black in the evening. Unrelieved black at Light is far less trying than it is in the day- light. Moreover, in order, to avoid a lot of luggage, many prefer to have one smart black hat that can be worn in the evening as well as the afternoon, than go to the bother of taking several bats. A striking hat seen in the Casino recently was made of a new material called "dentelle de crin." of crinoline luce. Round the crown was a narrow pleating of corded ribbon, and a narrow silver braid. It is most effective, and delightful to wear, being as light as gossamer wings.

Young girls weir coloured dance-frocks in the evening, and the scene in the hotel ball rooms is very bright. Taffetas, either shot or plain, satin crepe and crêpe: georgette, are mainly responsible for these dainty dresses. Deep cyclamen, trimmed with silver lace, or cream lace over yellow sufin are other variations that charming. The effect of the longer skirt, too, is very pleasing. Metal tissues in pale shades, also, are worn a good deal; and in pink, blue, or green are equally attractive.

Reversible coats and cloaks are popular this season, and not without reason, for. they save both money and space in pack- ing Black satin is used for cleaks with a white or silver lining.

Varnished lumé brocade is a new invention, and ar a lining it has already achieved remark- able success. This is excellent for one side of a reversible cloak carried out in scarlet and gold reversed with cream. More sombre affairs in the matter of katin and crêpe Marocain, finely embroidered with gold thread.
