STITCHED GOWNS.
Tailor Made Fnuhlon? In Cloth and
Silk.
A multiplicity of linos of stitching con?
tinues to bo used. Skirts have often from
10 to 20 rows of stitching around the
foot, usually of a contrasting tone, and
sleeves are seen which are covered with
linos of stitching from the shoulder to
the waist. The heavy straws of which
many summer hats are made are olso
stitched with silk of a contrasting color.
Tailor made gowns of thin cloth,
thick silk, peau de soie and satin are
greatly worn. They are chiefly in shades
beginning with gray, passing through
browns, blues and green to black. The
VOtf.e costume.
last named especially is used because it
is becoming and useful and gives the fig?
ure greater elegance.
There is a geltend doubt arising as to
the long continuance of plaited costumes
in favor, and when such a doubt arises
it is generally well founded. All extreme
fashions are short lived. Those which
endure for o;jy length of time are usually
more or less practical and offer some
good excuse for their existence.
The costume illustrated is of mastic
voile. The skirt is plaited and stitched
at the hips and mounted in a watteau
plait at the back. It opens in front over
a tablier of sky blue plaited silk, witli
two bands of guipure nt eaeh side. The
close bodice is trimmed to match, having
a plastron of plaited blue silk with two
bands of guipure. The top of the voile
sleeves is of blue silk and has two gui?
pure hands and a band at the waist. The
fringed cravat is of white crepe de chine,
the belt of white kid, with gold and tur?
quoise ornaments. The hat of yellow
straw la trimmed with a drapery of sky
blue tulle and blue quills.

NEW UNDERWEAR.
*ovel IdVtiM For Petticoats For the
iammer.
Black silk with a pompadour design in
colors makes very pretty and useful petti?
coats.
A novel idea for petticoats i^ the re?
movable flounce. Petticoats of light silk
are quickly soiled around the foot, and
some clever person has thought of using
a deep Bounce of white or ecru batiste,
linen or tursore silk, trimmed with lace.
This is tacked in place and can easily be
ripped off and washed.
A new way of decorating white lawn
and batiste petticoats is to put under the
embroidered flounce a flounce of colored
POPLIN COSTUME.
batiste. At the top of the white flounce
are placed bows of ribbons matching the
color of the lining batiste. Another pet?
ticoat novelty is the deep flounce com?
posed of lengthwise tucks, which are left
free near the foot and are of universal
length, forming points. The lower, un?
tucked part of the flounce is enriched
with lace and insert ion.
The picture given today shows a cos?
tume of silver gray poplin. The skirt i*
plaited at the sides nud back and is other

Sixteenth Century Apples.
Apples be so divers of form nnd sub?
stance that it were infinite to describe
them all. Some consist more of air** 3
then water, as sour puffs called Mala I
pulmonea: others more of water then j
Wind, as sour Cantatas and Pome wa-1
ters. To l>e short, all apples may be j
sorted into three kinds, sweet, sourej
and unsavory. Sweet apples ease the \
cough, quench thirst, cure melancholly, j\
comfort the heart and head, especial!) \
if they be fragrant and odoriferous.?
and also give a laudable nourishment. I
Bonre apples binder spitting, straiten a
the brest, gripe and hurt the stomach,
encrease phlegm and weaken memory. <
Sweet apples are to !>?? eaten at the ^
beginning of meat, but soure and tan \
apples at the latter end. All apples aiv.:
worst raw, and best baked or preserv- *'
ed.
Philip of Macedonia and Alexander, j
his sou, from wbome perhaps a curiOUl ]
and skilful herald may derive our Lan?
cashire men, were called Philomel! ap- :
pie lovers because they wore neve: ?
without apples in their pockets. Yea. 4
all Macedonians, his countrymen, did ?
so love them that having neer Babylon j
surprised a fruiterer's boy they stlived
for it that many were drowned.?Dr. 1

An Opera Air In Church.
Those of my churchgoing readers
who are familiar witli Mozart's opera
of "Don Juan" and have even sung it
in church in?
1 am conscious of au Interruptio!!
and a protest at this point, denying the
allegation and defyiug the allegator.
but 1 must insist on the truth of my
statement The tune "Smyrna" is not
sung so much in church as it used to
be, but you could find it in plenty of
tunebooks 25 years ago. It is a beauti?
ful melody, but not devotional except
as it expresses the devotion of the fic?
kle coquette in the opera as she con?
soles her bruised lover.? Irish Inde?
