Thrco days out of four, I fancy, bin' is gray eyed, but this morning she wore a white cloth jacket, with trimmings of blue galon, and the blue peeped out again from pure sympathy* from under her eyelids. Her Jacket was a very smart one, with blue bows on the col? lar, and her (,'imn was of fsvuy cloth, with (fray glovca aud whiu gal on trim? mings. She carried a fluffy gray eropc parasol, and her hut was a hijr. rough gray straw, with a wreath of white narcissus tied with dark bine ribbons. one girl in dark bluo silk, with white gloves and n gray straw hat, trimmed with white lilacs and gray green leaves; the other girl was in golden brown taffeta, striped iu two shades, and caught most picturesquely with hunches of violets and knots of soft : white gauces. lloth girls wore bi< j veils, out from whose folds thojr eyes ? peeped with May mischief. "There's one thing 1 can't titVord to I do." said a wise woman yesterday, "ami I that is to miss these days watohlng of ? the shop vindows.

All the giris are wearing those cun? ning little sine combs which bold in TWO Kl'MMr.K omt.n. She was up to dato, but words never I seem adequate when you are trying to ! tell anybody about a girl. It isn't respectful; it Isn't pretty, but girls really arc like walking May? poles; they sport so many colors this month. There was a young woman at a matinee this afternoon in a dress that ought to no told about. The bodice of it was pale blue plaited silk muslin, with long curl's and epaulets. The up? per part of each sleeve was of white xnusliu, spoiled with blue. The skirt was of white silk, with blue and pink Ton a mat uonsixo. spots. There was further trimming of dark leaf green ribbon bows. It Is im? proper thing. I suppose, to say "choux," but "bows" is plain American, and r.eems to do just as well. There wa - a hat of rough pink straw, quite dark In color, with big roses and leaf masses and bunches of green ribbons to malic it pretty. The girl was a brilliant pic? ture, but one's eyes soon tire, after all, of euoh orgies of color. place tue unruly tangles or moir nuny front locks. Above the COinbH the hill! lies sliek and smooth as u demure Mil donna's; below their restraint th fuzzy ends stick out as if in rcbcllioi against their tutelage.

The Madonna can becom the banged girl in an hour, but to b come a Madonna again Is a task ? months. You become wholc-haire again "while you wait," so to speak Whoroforo I should counsel deUber; tlon and much weighing of the pr I und iMtis before becoming a bang, girl again, next style. Meanwhile, though, there are tl. combs. The little side combs are meant to 1 but temporary, end it may mit be i the best of taste to decorate them, bit I have seen thetn blazing with gem A better place for those is the big ba comb, which may be shell, with go! panels, or all gold, or may produce tl offeot of a tiara of diamonds?a "ti i rier" of diamonds, I've heard it callc Thero are bizarre arrangements i white and gold, which go not ill wll some faces, but I should much pref. the tortoise and gold for plain, ordinal I people like?well, not like you and m< of course, but like so many that we s every day.
