j The following suggestions, taken from an ■ American paper, may be of me to ladies who cycle, and who may possibly experience some difficulty in finding a costume that fulfils- all necessary require ments of comfort, c isc and grace :— "It is a navy-blue cloth, or for summer •wear, silk. The neck is cut out ia a small V in front and is filled in -with dark red China _ilk, with standing draped collar of the same; and full puffed sleeves shirred into cuffs. " The skirt is of two widths, one and a quarter yards wide of forty-eight inch cashmere. An elastic, one inch wide, iB run through the top to gather around the waist, seam back and front half yard long. From the seam the skirt ia sloped out, divided and gathered on banda to bo fas tened below the knee. This gives the appearance of loo.c, full knickerbockers or divided skirt. " India girdle witb long fringed tassels of dark red woven silk to correspond with bat and collar. Dark tan riding gloves. Tan leatber leggings and tan ties. I do not wear cors.ts with the above suit ; have substituted an under waist, thus gaining grace, ease and comfort ia aiding." Tha designer of another suit says of it : " This suit, which is made of dark-gray serge pr flannel, conßi-ts of a plain gathered skirt just reaching to tbe ankles, shirt waist and drawers as described bslow. " The shirt waist is gathered back and front, has full sleeves and turned-back cuffs and collars. A buttom is sewed on each side of the waist, to which the drawers are fastened. Just above are two more buttons, with one on the back, to which the skirt is buttoned. The drawers are made of the same material, slightly full at the wai3tand sloping out toward the bottom, each leg forming a sort of skirb reaching to the ankles. They are shirred just balow the knee with elastic, so that they bag aud give free action to the legs. They are buttoned on the sides to the waist. A blaok Tarn o' Shanter, necktie and belt complete the costume. " This suit is simple, pretty, and service- I able. Being gray it does not show the dust, while the black relieves the mono tony of tone.
