Dolly Varden Evening Gowns.
E.ach of the French couturiers hasl
brought out a l)olly Varden flowered
gown, and though differing In partle
ulars, all these gowns are alike In one
respect -thie phnnler. A Dolly Varden
costume, without a costume would
be Ihnnhlet with Hamlet left out, or
srmel lhing leually as tllsappointing;
and, hideld, tile panlrer, quite as
much as the flowered material, makes;
the conslunto worthy of Its name. Pom.
padoulr silks and flowered taffeta In
new and chllarmling patterns have ap
peared like muglt In the shops to
make these Dolly'Varden gowns, and
as a quantity oit the silk Is required
"or the draped panniers, the folk who
have ltabeen crying out against the small
namoulnt of nmaterlal necessary now
adays should cheer up. By the way,
has anybody hearil of a tallor-dur

short eInats -who has offered to mll.i

price be)cuse' Iof the small amount of

this has rlnthiang to do with evening

Odd Whims of Prench Couturiers.

rhincatolne hand trimnming Is atro
clously expensive--mne must pay al
most two dollars a yard for even au
narrow band of the stones, set in iml
tutiln silver, iand unless the trimming
is handled with utmost care, the
rhinelstones drop oeet and tile trimming
is Iltterly poiled. Chlifon and lace

and fir onme reason or other, even
whren the flesh is well covered with
fabric, the effect seems to be extreme
ly deeollete. f)ome of the new even

pass In Paris, where modesty and con
servative taste are not held in the
sacme regard as over here, but one
marvels that American women
granddaughters of stern old Puritan
settlers in some cases-can wear such
effects. Yet the extreme decolletage
is the fashion, and the modestly cut
bodice, with only a small square or V
of tlhroat showing, rteally looks prim
and ccountrifled now days. But thq
limit scecns to have been reached in
a French evening gown worn at the
Comedle ?rancals recently-and in
the audience, too. This gown had a
trailing skirt of flesh-colored chiffon
over pale ,blue oharmeuse, and above
the highl waistline a Ibodice of pearl
beads cewn on sliver net. This bodice
was worn directly over thie k'ln, and
strings oif pearls held It over the
shoulders.
Pearls Immensely Pashioenable.
Never were pearls more in favor
than they are now, and it Is hot nee
essary to own a fortune in real pearls
to be in the mode. Htandbme 'strings
of Imitations pearls are wori by trany
women who can well afford the real
sort, and when the imitation' Is clever
it Is almost impossible to tell the dlf
