Repousse Lace.

All the new laces that have a heavy raised design on a net foundation are now called repousse. There is a wide demand for this sort, of lace work, although it differs from file, and the ecclesiastical laces that are also In favor. There never was a seasow like this one for lace, any way. Whole rooms are given over to it in some of the big shops, and machine-made and hand-made kinds vie with each other ta beauty and dignity. Almost every kind of lace the world has known has been revived. No gown oc simple coat suit seems complete without the addition of some pattern. The huge revolutionary revere are made of marvelous meshes, sailor coltare are cut from pieces of square laces that have Igures of all sorts woven tn the net, and stocks and chemisettes are made from the fine French laces that have been revived t&ik summer.
