A GOWN FOR CALLING.

One of the Newest and Most Striking of Fashion’s Fancies. Oee of the latest models is a closefitting coat of black broadcloth, with skirts which are long in the back and sides, but slope away in front, to show a deep waistcoat of watermelon pink cloth, which has row's of black braid forming a series of points down the front. The collar is flaring and does not clo§e. It is lined with black velvet. A very handsome calling gown is made of biscuit-colored vogne,

and embroidered on the front of the skirt with silk, shading from biscuit to cinnamon brown, with a touch of gold here and there to illuminate it. Around the bottom is a ruche of cinnamon brown feathers. The coat bodice is very long in the back, but only covers the hips; it is opened over an embroidered waistcoat which fastens with small gilt buttons. The high flaming collar and revers are faced with brown velvet and edged with the feather trimming. The felt hat is the same color as the dress, and is trimmed with cinnamon velvet, ribbons, and feathers.
