IMPROVED TASTE.
Mrs. Evan Nepean, writing in the Queen, thinks that tho Englishwoman is improving as regards taste in dress. She is being broken of tho habit of wearing an expensive thoroughly nfternoon plctirro hat when walking in tho London streets of a summer's morning in a fhaflo cotton ; sho docs not wear tho fullest of lull dress for going to a play preceded by a restaurant dinner; she does not invariably appear in a coat and skirt (because it happens to bo new and well made) at an aftornoon tea; she really seems to have tired at 'last of Topes of pearls in tho duytimo, though her bead necklaces of the past season were a trifle overpowering', she is honestly endeavouring ! not to put half a dozen different "ornaments" in her hair, nor (if "artistically" inclined) to •wathe henwlf with uuiffon Md^tuUe on all ocoMionfl.
