PARIS FASHION NOTES.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL. COMMESPONDENT, ISABEL · RAMALT.}

Paxis, February 20th. The Paris lying between the rus de. Is Paix and the Champs Elysees and the whole- salo quarter of the city is in a seething the state of excitement these days, as principle dressmakers and milliners are showing their Spring collections to tho overseas buyers, and the sartorial fate of women the world over is being decided in

garden-party frocks for girls, an or

The majority of these frocks are white and made of a new cotton crepe material, which, although opaque, is light enough in texture to allow of the fesh tist of the skin being seen through it. The bodices are full and the skirta are caught in loosely at the waist, so as to define this part of the body without actually accentuating it The charm of these frocks is in the dainer embroidery notions which constitute trimming.
