NOTES FROM PARIS.
The shoulder yoke will be one the features of the spring fash- sions. It figures on all the new models, and is certainly an im- provement. Dresses with yokes sat better than those without, and a yoke adde a line of grace to shoulders and nook. So far, those yokos are tiny affairs, that are more like shaped bands than the deep, oumbersome things of former years.
Another feature of the coming. season will be the gradual dis- appearance of the sleeveless dress. All the new models are fitted with sleover, Trua,'they are small, unobtrusive affairs for the present, but they represent the thin end of the wedge. Sometimes the sleeves are puffed, sometimes plain and finshed with a binding put on the arces, and sometimes they are a little wider and sliti down the outside, so that the flaps fall back to reveal the arm under- neath.
- Evening dresses, in the full sense of the ward, will continue to re- main sleeveless; it is the afternoon frooks, the dance and little! dinner frocks that are rejoicing i in the luxury of a tiny sleeve.
Here are two quaint little de- vices for introducing novelty into a dance frock.
This summer frock illus- trates the possibilities of print- ed and bordered silk. Such a dress requires very little sew- ing and is quite finished when it has an organdie collar and a sash. The colour scheme here is unusual." The material is black and white and the sash is a lovely sapphire blue.
From the shoulders at the back of your dress hang two bands of the same material as the dress, about an inch to an inch and a half wide, looping these, one across the other, just about the waist line, so that the dress she wore at the inaugural ends, weighted with a tassel or reception for President Garfield,

SILKS FOR THE SPRING.
Bilk will play an important part in the new Spring fashions Already all the big wos vera have placed their new creations on the market, and some of those, are. truly things of beauty and delight.; The corded weaves predominate, and are being used by all the big dressmaking houses. The silks include poplin weaves, which ara sleek and supple to the touch, heavy Sttomans, and oorded silke.
The period freck is one of those styles which is destined never to vanish from fast ion-like gaunt- let glover, for instance, bobbed hair and coloured stockinge.
Although the period frock can bo becoming to almost every type, it can, in a sonse, be very treacherous. Its success depends on the accessories you add to the frock and the details that go to make up the general affect. This is because a period frook can express a wide range of effects, from the romantic, gentimental mood of the Victorian ora to the daringly modern mood of Spain, therofore, the details must bo made to harmonise, not only in colour and line, but also in spirit. with the dress.....
