Ermine never was cheap, possibly because it is the fur of jroyalty, possibly because of its own worth but it was always beautiful, and; is so now,- a fact most women realize and utilize to the best of their ability, says a Chicago paper. An altogether, charming cape, witn long stole ends, is among the fur wraps of one of Chicago's beauties, and a regal appearance she makes in its snowy beautyj The body of the cape is of rich olive green velvet, extremely full, and edged broadly with a rich embroidery placed flatly on it. Over this flutters a deep butterfly cape of ermine,, with a jaunty collar standing up about the face. One end of the cape is drawn over the bust, surplice fashion, or, rattier, in the style of the favorite fichus, and from the waist fall two long tails of the fur, finished with a row of tail?. A dainty ermine muff completes the set.

If there were one thing lacking "to their happiness, a civilized observer would possibly have said soap. This, doubtless, is not the native view. There is no saying, however, that they might not like it, if they could get it without expense or trouble. It is now announced that a large num ber of the inhabitants of Northern Af rica are In this fortunate position with out knowing it. They have soap grow ing all around, waiting to be plucked. When Bishop Heber sang of the lands where "every prospect pleases and only man is vile," he had in mind, no doubt, to some extent, the personal? habits of the inhabitants. In future this verse may be added to his grand hymn: Waft, waft, ye winds, the story That tells the heathen wight, How, without cost or worry, He may be clean and bright; O bear across the briny This news unto that zone, Till Afric mugs are shiny With soap of nature's own. This great discovery of natural soap has been made by a learned professor. He sends from Algiers a report con cerning a very large growth of trees of the sap Indus or order. They are amazingly prolific and their fruit contains about 38 per cent of tree yields from saponin. A 100 to 200 pounds of berries, capable of producing soapsuds by the gallon. If a native of the region wants to wash or shave himself he merely has to send his wife out into the woods to pick a few berries and then proceed to improve his appearance. Unfortunately he never wants to do any of these things. For grease, paint and jewelry he has ardent desires, but not for soap.

Answer It is very evident, girls, that you are not regular readers, else you would have been rooted and grounded, as It were, la the latest Ideas, on bloomers. It is perfectly safe to say that the time is not far distant when women will find their cheeks getting red when they recall the spectacle they have made of themselves' by going out wheeling in bloomers, They are merely a craze, and one that Is without sense or reason. Thousands of women have never worn them,! and for this they will prob-ibl- y be very thankful. As to the authorities that approve of them, that Is a matter of opinion. Many very excellent women wear them, but that proves nothing. Tbe bloomer fad is dying out, and a not very lingering death either. Wear moderately short skirts and gaiters, girls, and let bloomers severely alone. One; of the best styles Is a skirt just to the instep In front and almost touching the ground at the back. When ynu mount,! see that the back seam of the skirt comes exactly over the middle of the saddle. This prevents showing the ankles at the back, and gives a much more graceful and stylish effect than a very short skirt.
