Royal Crystal gait ia sweet and delicto:. arranged full over the shoulder and outliued with a cord of sage-gree- n silk. The jacket itself is edged with a band of the sable. There is a sash of sage-gree- n silk laid in folds, and the sleeves are putted in th con-ventional way, narrowing to the wrt. A fetching gown for the slender beauty is shown by another firm. It Is of mauve frise cloth, that material which is such an effective substitute for velvet. The trimming of the skirt is entirely new. There is a straight band of Persian trimming from which the stiffness is entirely banished by th narrow curved folds of the frise cloth be-neath. The waist has a deep yoke formed of the Persian trimming, the predominating colors of which are violet, pale green and gold. Below the yoke the material seems bound iu folds about the figure. To achieve the popular broad effect across the shoulders an epaulette is introduced op-posite the rever. A belt of the Persian trini- - ming completes the effect. THE CAPE REIGNS. It Is a Very Jaunty Feature of Street and Traveling-- Costumes. The cape reigns, not only, in our coata, but in the newest gowns designed for autumn and winter wear. One in-tended for street wear is fashioned of a i mushroom-tinte- d faced cloth. The bottom of tho skirt is trimmed with four bands of sable. The waist is a combination affair of elaborate design. Over a founda-tion of sage-gree- n silk is worn a Zouave jacket of amnshroom shade of era bossed i velvet, upon which is raised a faint ecru- - tinted flower. The cape effect is brought , out in the wing-lik- e appecdages to the Jacket.

The fact that a thing is ephemeral ia no reason why it should be all vanity. Every-thing is ephemeral, but the ephemeral Is sometimes divine. Look at the butterfly. It is less a distinct animal than the edores-cenc- o of another animal. The butterfly is a generation of the veriuicule, just as a flewer is a passing moment of the plant. A crea-ture but littla endowed in appearance, but little rich in life and intelligence, con-demned, you will say, to represent in nature only an ugly and pale existence, to make a number and tiil one of tha spaces of the infinite ladder, arises suddenly. The heavy and crawling insect becomes winged, ideal. Its life is now aerial. A creature of clay, and moulded in gross ma-terial, it becomes the host of the air, the eon of the day. What has accomplished this marvel? Love. The butterfly is tha period of love. Wonder not that he spreads his beautiful wings, caresses every flower, and follows hero and there his joyous caprice. Everything is gold in his eyes. For him everything swims in the glowing atmos-phere which makes all things beautiful. Happy creature! Ha springs forth in his own time. He throws off his heavy robe of c'.ay. He is overjoyed. He lives for a few moments the most celestial life of all. As soon as he has quenched his thirst, as soon as he has drank his full cup of joy, he withers away. Happy creature ! For him to love lb to live; to have loved is to die. I doubt not that there is condensed in the brief existence of that little thing so much happiness that its fugitive life is superior to that of the most powerful creatures, and far surpasses that of the reat majority of men. Brief and brilliant Cash, flower of a day, I salute thee! O, beloved one of God, 0. thou whose life encompasses in a few hours the three divine moments, to flourish, to love and to die! Dmi Drift. To be quite fashionable now ope must wear a string of pearls morning, noou, even-ing and nirht. Lace is the prevailing trimming of the day. It is seen upon toques, it forms the bas s of tiny muff it adorns glove tops, and is used for flounces upon the skirts and bodices of street dresses. Short, round cloaks iu silver-gra- y are trimmed at the edges and upon the ahoulj OLD FINGER RINGS. Queen Bess Loved Them Some Odd De-i- jf n. Queen Elizabeth had an immoderate love for jewelry, and the description given of her dresses covered with gems of the greatest rarity and beauty reads like a romance. For finger rings she had remarkable fond-ness. Paul Hentzner, in his "Journey into England," 1593, relates that a Bohemian baron having letters to present to her at the ' palace at Greenwich, the queen, after pull-itnog off her glove, "gave him her right hand kiss, sparkling with rings and jewels a, mark of particular favor. Among the old Northmen rings were gen-erally worn by rich people and persons of rank. Such rings are frequently found in barrows of paean date, and from their na- ture and quality it is easy to determine that lhey were generally of very simple work-manship; the reason of which undoubtedly is that they were used instead of money in commercial transactions, and had, therefore, not infrequently to be cut asunder. Still rines of more artistic workmanship are sometimes found in pagan graves. Rings of Italian workmanship of a later period are remarkably beautiful. Venice particularly excelled in this art. In the Londesborough collection is a fine specimen. The four claws of the outer rinffjn open work support the setting of a sharply-pointe- d pyramidal diamond, such as was then coveted for writing on glass. The shank bears a fanciful resemblance to a serpent swallowing a bird, of which only the claws connecting the face remain in view. It was with a similar ring Raleigh wrote the words on a window pane: "Fain would I rise, but that 1 fear to fall," to which Queen Elizabeth added: "If thy heart fail thee do not rise at all," an implied en-couragement which led him on to fortune. In the Londesborough collection is a ring, doubtless a gage d' amour, the hoop of which is richly decorated with quaint floriated orn-aments, cut upon its surface, and filled in with the black composition termed neillo, once extensively used by goldsmiths in en-riching their work. This beautiful ring ia inscribed within the hoop, "Mon Cor Piesor" "my heart's delight." The Silk Walk Is tha X test. Two girls were walking down the avenue the other day. They were both very stylish and well-dresse- but they looked as if their clothes had been made at home by a woman who sewed by the day. Another passed them at a rapid pace whose light cloth suit had an unmistakable Paris cut. Her black hat was very high in the back, her feather was very fluffy, and she walked with a ous motion, a simultaneous one of the shoulders and hips, and as she passed there was a sound of silk swish, swish, i "I bet that is New Torker. '.Hasn't she got the silk walk down to a fine point?" said the taller and darker of the two iirls. "What do you mean by silk walk?" "Why, Alice, haven't you noticed the way all the girls are walking now, and that lovely rustling sound?" "Oh, pshaw; anybody can hare that who has a BilH foundation to her skirts." "Indeed they can't, then. Your dress is mide up on silk, and I can't hear a sound. No; you've got to have on aeilk lining and a silk petticoat, too. I was wild for one, and when I found I couldn't afford it they were f20 and $30 I almost cried, until I thought of an old silk dress I had, and I've got it on now. But they don't make a bit of noise un-less you wriggle your knees, a sort of cork-screw motion like this." And the taller and darker of the two girls wTi(re;led her way down the avenue so suc-cessfully and with such a rustle of si'k that an old colored woman put down her basket of clothes and gazed after her, saying: "Dat young lady sat'nly gwine to tear dat dress ter pieces ef she don't walk mo' stiddy!" To Test a Diamond. Here is an easy method of determining whether a supposed diamond is genuine or not: Pierce a hole in a card with a needle and then look at the hole through the stone. If false you will see two hole's, but if you have a real diamond only a single hole will appear. You may also make the test in an-other way. Put your finger behind the stone and look at it through the stone as through a magnifying glass. If the stone is genuine you will be unable to distinguish the grain of the skin, but with a false stone this will be plainly visible. Furthermore, looking through a real diamond the setting is never visible, whereas vt is with a f ilse one. Ventilated Shoes. An ingenious Philadelphian, who was for-merly an Australian, has just patented a shoe with ventilated soles. The valves in the shoes are made on the same principle as the tricuspid valves of the heart, which al-low air to enter freely, but close tightly against anything in fluid form. These shoes, the inventor claims, are good in more senses than one. Not only will they keep the feet cool, but they wili also prevent corns, and will remove the objectionable odor eaused at the same time. For Widows Whi Weep. "I was much amused this week at reading in a society paper a description of a new in-vention of a French eorsatiere, euphoniously named in that polite language, 'corset a ly meaning aobbing corsets. This Gallic artist says that it it a well-know- n fact that grief-stricke- n widows or feminine mourners for seme dear departed relative or friend are rendered moat uncomfort-able by the stifling sobs that make their well-fittin- g and brand-ne- mourning feel uncomfortably constraining and tight. To obviate this, a triangular piece of elastic is t ders with effective trefoils of velvet with silk along: the points. In drab camel's hair is a traveling cloak, with revers of fox fur. The lining is old gold satin, and the only decorations ara handsome frog buttons on the front. Hair-strip- e batiste comes in a mixture of wool and cotton, but only in white grounds, with the narrow stripes about an eighth of an inch apart. Housekeeper's Weekly. When to Try on New Shoes. There is a time for everything in this world, and so it is that the best time to get fitted to shoes is in the latter pkrt of the day. The feet are then at their maximum of size. Activity naturally enlarges them. Much standing tends also to enlarge the feet. New shoes should also be tried on over moder-ately thick stockings. Then you have a marpin of room by putting on thinner stock-ings if the shoes feel ill at ease. Ladies? Home Journal. On out-of-do- or meeting at Kingston Ont, was recently addressed by J. F. Frasier, a revivalist, who sailed into the prevailing mode of female dress and said women are born beautiful and die misshapen because of the wearing of cersets. Frasier is an earnest and powerful speaker, and his words created great excitement among the women present. "Throw off the accursed invention!" he cried; "throw it off and go to God as you left him ! Burn them rather than burn your-selves in everlasting fire!" This suggestion struck a responsive ehord and he hadhardly eeased speaking when an enthusiast piled up material for a bon-flr- e and applied a match. It was a weird scene, the dusky evening, the crowd of religious enthusiasts, quivering with excitement, fire which shot up long tongues of flame. "Throw ft the garment!" shouted the re-vivalist.

The house robes grow more picturesque with every-seaso- though there is nothing startlingly new in their design. The skirt of the one seen is made of silk Hen-rietta cloth of a magenta shade. The visible portion of the waist proper is of pale pink China crepe. This ia shirred to form a yoke and also a pointed vest. Over it is worn a peasant's jacket of brocaded magenta velvet laced with gold cord. The yoke is outlined by a deep bertha of Irish point lace fully shirred over the shoulders. The sleeve con-sists of a huge puff of soft pink bengaline silk to the elbow, from which falls a mass of pink crepe bewitchingly neslige in its wrinkled effect. The back cf the gown is made with a deep Watteau plait. A long mantle which is suggestive of grace in its every fold is of dove gray lady's cloth, lined with changeable red silk. To fall over the shoulders are two full capes. The gar- ment is made with a pointed yoke, back and front, of scarlet cloth, embroidered in gold. The effect is heightened by an outline of sable. There is also a high collar, edged with the fur. In the back is the popular Watteau plait. YOUR WINTER FURS. Here Are Facta That May Help Teu to Select Thaio. Furs are here. The tall woman and the short woman, the woman who is a trifle too tout as well as the woman who is a trifle too slender each may be suited this season when she goes forth to buy them. The variety of fur garments displayed is so ex-tensive that all tastes are successfully catered to. As to the price, that will not be touched upon here. There are four novelties shown in sealskin, and each seems very popular with the early shoppers. The three-quarte- r length jacket is made very full in the back, with wide re-ve-in front. A high collar and large tor-toise shell button down the front complete the effect. The second novelty, designed for the women to luxury born, is a lone garment which reaches to the bottom of the dress and has a furry train. This garment iB especially becoming to the tall, slender young woman. Then there is the refer jacket in seal, which is tight-fittin- g in the back and loose in the front and suggests the reefer of the sum-mer days. One of the most fetching novel-ti- e is the short, tight-fittin- g sealskin jacket elaborately embroidered in thick silk and gold-wroug- braid. The effect of the col-ored embroidery on the seal is very good. The cape is still appreciated. These vary in length from twenty-fou- r to thirty inches. The most fashionable designs have a yoke with a high Medici collar. When one has not enough money to buy a fur coat there are delightful substitutes shown in the sepa-rate fur collars and also in tha cravattes, which are the new boas. At one end of the rravatte is the animal's head and two claws, while his tail adorns the other end. The fur collars vary. . One is of black velvet, made full near the shoulder and out-lined with soft silver fox, this bme fur fin-ishing the high collar. Another is a deep pointed collar of the Russian sable. This would look particularly well with a t'.gbt-liuin- tf brown broadcloth coat. The other collarette bas a high collar and revers. It is of sealskin, edged with astrackan. Another shows a design in mink, which is to be onj of the most fashionable furs of the season. These collarettes are made to order with cuffs to match. They are lined with exquisite shades of ct;aneable silk. The sealskin jackets are tight-fittin- g to the waist end then hang very full. The sleeves rive the broad effect across the shoulders. With the coat is worn a cravatte of sealskin and a leather belt, through the middla of which runs a narrow band of fur. A jaunty seal-skin cap, with the gilt quill at the side, makes the costume complete. Many of the lonsr garments are of sealskin, lavishly trimmed with sable. Narrow bands of sable at the yoke and bottom of the gar-ments are most effective. So are the wide revers. Siik Persian coats are also seen. The fur is tiehtly curled, clings closely to the skin and has a glossy appearance. The sensible woman will observe a few things whilo buying her winter furs. If she hiHn a round face and a chin which unkind friends might call "double" she should avoid the jabot effect. It is sure to be unbecom-ing. If she be tall and willowy the lone garment will make her appear more grace-ful. In selecting a coat avoid having the sleeves the same height as the collar. The effect of this is not satisfactory, especially when the garment is tried on at home. The most popular furs from which to se-lect are silken Persian, sealskin, Kussian sable, mink and mandarin lamb. Wanted A Hat Holder, There U a fortune ia store for the inventor who devises seme cheap, convenient and secure means of holdinjr a woman's hat in place. Just now tha hat are fastened on with a long pin, which passes through the bat on both sldei and through tie fold of the hair. Every time the bat ia put en it ia pierced with two new holes, and the best hat is soon ruined in this way, and three tines out of five the sealp ia pricked by the needle before it goes through the hair, and after all the trouble the hat is never secure, for every wind blows it up is front. The inventors ought to give the matter some attention. weeds. I tried on y6ung Mrs. Rocers's the other day, and I was positively ill at the prospect. Lulu Can't you leave off the cap? Ton seem too young for even a little wee bit of a one. But, Eloise, maybe, though, you'll be a good deal older when the first one dies. Eloise Don't try to comfort me that way, Lulu. You know I shall have to begin soon in order to get around. Then the most Srobable first one isn't very strong, anyway, hit in the chest with a bat when he was on the Yale nine, and his lungs are quite weak now. Lulu If you wear a cap I shall never speak to you again. Eloise I'm glad you think it won't seem heartless not to. Maybe I won't, then. Lulu How sweet of you to relent! Eloise Here is one of Mrs. Rogers's cards do you think I need to have such a broad black border on mine? It looks so sombre. Lulu No, indeed. I wouldn't do it for any man. Eloiue (turning down the edge) Do you think half as much would do? Or would it look too much as if it were only for a child? Lulu I should advise not more than a third as deep as hers'. It's one's duty to be cheerful in this world, I think. Eloise You are such a comfort to me, Lulu always so practical. Lulu I don't believe you will be a widow as young as you imasrlne; and aftar a time you won't so much mind if mourning is un-becoming. Eloise Thank you for your sympathy, dear. But it's of no use. I know what to expect when a younj man has been hit in the chest with a baseball. Caroline Scott Harrison.

Jam Whitcomb Riley. Looking to tho Future. (Dramatis Person: Eloise and Lulu.) Lulu My dear Eloise. I haven't seen you since your trip to Boston. Of course you learned lots of clever new things. And is it true that the people there care noth-ing for fashion, except changes in specta-cles? Eloise Well, they do thick rather more about isms &ud ologies that the way their skirts hang. Lulu Did you get any new ideas? Eloise Loads! Xo, 1 won't say loads, but heaps and heaps. I know quantities about heredity now, and it's the most interesting subject I have taken up yet. Lulu Then it must be lovely. Eloise Oh, it 1b. A man named Joseph Rook or Cook, or something, lectured there on that topic, and my cousin's debating so-ciety has been discussing it over again. It's very deep. Lulu I should think as much. Eloise They believe there are 'seven kinds most of them I have forgotten, but I know one sort is called collateral ; it's what you inherit from some one out of the direct line like an aunt or uncle. Lulu How very, very scientific. I don't see hew you can grasp such things. Eloise (gravely) It means a great deal to me. Lulu How? Eloise I have no uncles and only one aunt, so I must inherit her tendencies, you see; and what do you suppose they are? Lulu I never can guess, Eloise. Eloise Ilunbands. Lulu How perfectly shocking. Eloise Yes, she has had three already. One dies and then she marries another. Fancy me with three husbands. I feel like a perfect Bluebeard. Lulu I shouldn't think that wou'.d be so bad, Eloise. There would be great variety in it, and just no monotony. I hate monoto-ny; don't you? Eloise Oh, yes, indeed! But, then, you forget that I shall have to be a widow at least twice, and I'm simply hideous in Frances Willard is quoted as saying: "This death line" drawing in the air with her finger the outline of a woman's waist squeezed into the shape of a sand hourglass "this line has filled more graves than whiskey." -- V.. |
