LITTLE WOMEN’S WEAR.

Pale blue is trimmed with whita lace and a rich coral pink is appropriately made up with chiffon of the same color. Chinese silk or closely figured challies, now so abundantly displayed in every shop, jhake very pretty dresses foryoun^girk. Park pi]k dresses, strange to say, are worn by young girls of school age at evening entertainments. Many lovely colors are chosen, such as violet, pansy, dark blue, all shades of red and dark green. ■m French cashmere, as shown this season, displays very beautiful designs of groups es such as violets, lilacs, moving glories, pansies and daisies. This material makes up very prettily for girls and is much made use pf; as also is crepon, with or without a figure, and camel’s hair, both plain and figured.

Foe dancing school are charming little gowns of white or delicate tinted crepons, made with straight plain skirts, very short full waists,.giving an empire effect, short puffed sleeves and shoulder ruffles. Very often a bertha of lace surrounds the neck, and they are worn with or without guimpses. Skirts are as varied as those for grewn-up women. They are in circle shape, gored in front and on the sides, and straight. The straight skirts, however, predominate, and two breadths of double-fold goods or three of twenty-inch are used. The skirts may be lined or unlined. Most straight skirts are simply hemmed.
