It will perhaps interest our readers to know of a recently imported shirt in which the tabiiier front was pre-eminent. It is cut in four divisions, each one bias and shaped to give the neces sary Hare. Each section is shirred to the other with tiny up-standing frills and the lower one spreads out into a very full flounce. The shirt joins the tablier at either side and the edges are finished with rosette bows of nar row black velvet ribbon, three or tour strands carried from one to the other alt the way down. ‘•Have you had a kindness shown? ■ Pass it on. ’Twas not given for you a ion.
