wv** ?frt|p W JT *fl r\ (Wr^l MEN THAT WOMEN LIKE. They Must foe Above All Else Strong and Yet Gentle. Men are always ready to give very freely their ideas of the style of women that pteas them and want every desir able quality embodied in that one little morsel of femininity, consequently it is not out of place for a woman to tell the ortof a man that a woman likes. He must be essentially manly. Tbe more dainty and feminine the woman the greater Hercules she admires, yet he must be merciful as strong. He can not adore her too much, yet at times mutt be masterful. He will be in every way worthy of respect, for unless he is she will not love him. A wuman wants too look up, not down to the man who is her husband. She would rather that he would be her mental superior th tn her equal. She revels in his streng'h, yet enjoy his tenderness. The man who can lift a woman in arms and carry her from cbftir to couch when illness make her as weak as a babv and does so with the gentleness of a woman, is the sort of man that a woman turns into a hero He must be generous and, ah, yes, a triflagood looking,but not to much so, "then he would be vain, and that she despises. must be a man other men look up to and likewise one whom other won en covert. He must be honorab'e and up right, but not goody-goodv must take an interest in our bonnets, ugh he may not know an ostrich feather tiom a ten penny nail, and, in fact, be an all-around dear, delightful creature whom we can love with all our heartPhiladelphia limes. Engagement cups and sauceis continue to be one of the caprices of fashion. Enamel flower pins are among the most beautiful of the current trifles in jewelry. A nagl gee sac^ue jr morning: is of white China silk, opened front over silk blouse, trimmed with jabots of soft ma line lace, with bows of ribbon at belt and throat. Delicately figured benghline silks are among the dainty novelties for the com ing season. For church, visiting recep tion and high teas bengaline is the favorite material, and it supplants cloth, and even crepon, in popularity. Yokes and trimmings to imitate yolks are the favorites for cloth and silk cos tumes. The style that has been gen erally adopted shows the top part of the waist, back and front of lace, and a very lull and deep ruftia bordering the lace yoke. It is very becoming. Tea gowns to be made a la mode mmt hang in the softest ir.descriable folds they aie made in crape and crepon. Those who have old lace scarfs can tnrn them to tbe best account, for they are folded on the bodice back and front, the ends floatitg over the skirt. Changeable silks trimmed with velvet yokes, Watteau bows of velvet ribbon of the same tone, black or white lace showing delicate touches of jet or steel passementerie area "standby" for both afternoon and evening wear. Also very nice for driving, not being so delicate as to be easily injured by dust. With wl i canvas or suede shoe? one should wear white stockings. There are many fancy stockings with black feet and colored tops on all sirts of designs, points or stripes or solid color. These are a little showy, but are some times very pretty. Occasionally bright scar let shoes with silk hose of the same hue are seen with dark dresses, but they are the exception. |f%4 A boiled clothes-line will not kink.

Therefore, in order to be quite correct, she means to learn the National game of poker, but is discouraged when every one says that no woman can play well, as she gives her hand away by the broad grin of satisfaction when she sees a straight or the little angry frown when ace high or a bob-tail flush appears be fore her disgusted vision. In order to overcome this little difficulty all the ad vanced girls who wish to take part in this up to date entertainment with cards this coming winter, and who feel their blood tinging in their veins at tl thought of a "real gambler," are learn ing the poker stare. Thi3 stare is a hard, firm and very wooden look. The eyes are trained to gaze straight ahead. The eyelids wink with automatic regularity, and even the feminine nose is trained to keep perfect ly calm, with no dilation of the nos'ri's when the ownar beholds three of a kind looking sweetly up into her face. Theie must be no frowrscf anxiety, but a calm and placid brow at all times. When all this is accomplished and nothing can up set her serenity save the appearance of a mouse in the midet, then will a worn man be fit to compete with the men in that beautiful and scientific game of bluff known as poker.

IStaJj TfcfE APPEALr A NATIONAL^ AFRO AMERICAN NEWSPAPER. rHE WOMAN OF FASHION. Some Predictionsl Concerning Fall SJ Styea v'? )ome New Material" That Have Made Their AppearanceHow the New Gowns Look A Pretty Blue SurahHew to Edge a Skirt. [COPYRIGHT, 1892.1 What are we going to wear this fall? We have felt the touch of a cooling breeze now and then, and the nights have had a freshness about them that makes the thought of heavier garments not altogether disagreeable. We're a little tired, too, f summer clothes, and turn with avidity to something fresh. Well, in the first place, so far as we an tell from what has reached us from Paris, we're going to be a trifle soberer In our colors this fall. To be sure, some A. QUAINT PELERINE. bordered materials I have seen here have gold in their bands, but even that is of a quiet, duller shade. The ma terials thus far have been extremely heavy. Do you know what burlaps is like? Well, the new catiline is just like refined burlaps, made into beautiful soft shades. It's just as heavy and thick, except of course, that it's all wool. Another kind is like the momie cloth we embroider on, only very much thicker, and has a quaint design running through it. The new striped velours are fine serge with a raised cord of two colors added, making stripes about a quarter of an inch in width. These colors give pretty effects, very much the same as does shot silk. For instance, the ground is dark blue and the raised cord dull blue and deep orangeas I saw it re cently. Seeing the material from one way it looks like a brilliant orange, but turn it and you get only the dull blue sffect. Another one of a fine weave of 'larkest red and blue, as the ground work, and pale green and orange for the cord, is very striking. Another material is woven in long ir regular line and uneven pattern and colors, quite eastern in appearance. The polka dots, too, come out in the new goods and sometimes lengthen into HOW TO TKIM YOUR SKIRT. dashes and sometimes into other queer shapes. All of these designs, however, are of siibdued colors, and the dots melt into the groundwork, as our sumiaei Jots do not. Although there seems to be more com mon sense than usual in these materials, the cut of the Paris gowns seems more fanciful than ever. One dressmaker seems to vie with another in adding one more eccentricity, one more fanciful touch here and there. And so things are getting worse and worse, and dressmak ers on this side of the water are driven well nigh to despair. The only comfort left is that human ingenuity will soon come to the end of its resources in the particular line it is at present pursu ing, and must needs start afresh in a new direction. Gowns have a tendency to double themselves over the shoulders. Dame Fashion, remembering that her de votees have been baring neck and shoul Jers for her sake all these summei evenings, seeks before the winter sea son shall have fairly set in to clothe them well with double garments that shall atone for any lack in the past THE NEW CAPE-GOWN. Russian sleeves and hanging lace bibs were the first indications of this tenden cy, and now a dress fresh from Pari! has a funny loose overcape that is quit* short in front and gets longei and longer till it reaches the middlt of the back. At this point it is only few inches above the waist line. Ther over this go very queer velvet revers oi rich chestnut color, joined at the front by a heavy knotted cord they run around in a broadening band over each shoulder, then slope off to the back and join midway between neck and waist. Underneath the waist is plain in cut, adorned with rich bands of passemen terie running downward at each side of the front a broad velvet band ties at the front. The gown is a rich brown shade, diagonally and finely striped in pale blue. A pelerine with full yoke on a stand ing collar so very high that it turns over jlightly has the garment proper fastened :m uio yoke. lu first the pelerine turns over in wide revers cut up salloi fashion, with an anchor embroidered at each corner. At the back the revers gc down into a deep point, and under the cape hangs full and plain but at the front the cloth is caught up full, and ig fastened at the side under the revers, A heavy cord binds it, and the same hangs in a long knot at the side. A new jacket has a quaint cut. Its fronts turn far back at the neck rin wide revers, which slant -narrower and nar rower till they meet below the waist Here a strap runs across confined with a handsome buckle, and underneath the eoat is cut entirely away in front, leav ing a large empty square, and the sides and back hanging down long. A pretty summer afternoon dress that is creating quite a furor just at presenl is of celestial blue surah, trimmed with a deep flounce of cream tulle. From under the tulle peeps a narrow band ol richest brown velvet, and at the top oi the ruffle is a pretty, fanciful heading of this same velvet. The bodice is all od tulle, and around each armhole are laid two narrow ruchings of the velvet, and from under each arm float long streams 3f velvet ribbon. The belt, also, is ol brown velvet, full and broad. The hal worn with the dress is a gold torowr, straw, trimmed all in blue and black The costume is a striking one, I assure you. A pretty peacock gown, also, is madt of black silk, all covered with tiny pea eock feathers in their natural shades. A deep lace ruffle trims the skirt, hang ing over rich green, and the bodice it plenteously adorned with lace also. To be quite in the style you mus have a Scotch plaid silk in your ward robe, or else a costume in which the plaid silk plays a very prominent part. They're not pretty, a great many oi them, but that makes no difference The bigger your plaid and the gayei your colors the more fashionable yoi are. So resign yourself to the inev itable, and procure your silk. If, yoi have a rich brunette complexion, the plaid may be becoming, and then, oi aourse, you won't mind it. IIow are you going to trim the edg of your new skirt? There are so manj styles now, it's hard to make up youi mind. They're trimming them with lit tle under flounces, then a band of rib bon all around, tied in straight flai bows every three inches, and above an other band of ribbon closely scalloped and some have fulled ribbon at th edge, and a lace flounce above, caught up with butterfly bows and some havt lace bands, with a band of ribbon laic over in the middle, tied in bows aL around and some have passementeru and shells of ribbon above, with narrovt velvet bands between. And there are aL sorts and ways of trimming and if you can actually think out anew and prettj one for yourself you may use it and fee] sure it is the style. EVA A. SCHUBERT. AN EVERLASTING PROBLEM. The Latest ArrivalSay, Billy, is life worth living?Life. Women Not All Alike. One of the constitutional opinions of the average man is that women are all alike, writes Junius Henri Browne in a pertinent article entitled "Are Women all Alikt?" in the August Ladies Home Jturnul. It crops out in his speech per petually, sometimes in tLe way of kind ness and S3 mpathy, often in the way of deriBion and contempt. When a wife has forgiven some great wrong done by her husbaud, when a mother has sacri ficed herself for her children, we hear: "It is just like a woman We hear the same thiDg if she has deceivt her lover, or involved her fathtr in debt. This dissent is due to the fact that some men are sentimentalists, and that more men are 03 nice. The former are always praising woman, the latter are generally sneering at or decrying her but both think that she has only one nature The sentimentalist behevts her to be good, gent e, loyal, truthful under every circumstance the cynic pronounces her bad harsn, inconstant, hypocritical on intttnet. Neither is wholly right nor wholly wrong. She is good and bad, gentle and harsh, loyal and inconstant, truthful and hypocritical. Her qualities depend largely on ih.3 individual, and the individual varies with mood and en vironment. She is not cut out of the ideal, cor is she drawn from debase ment. She is primarily human, as man isjacompouDd of brain and budy, of strength and weakness, of generosity and selfisnnesp, of chari'y andfpn-judice, of altiuiem and egotism, of hflection and aversion. Some women are far better, some women are far worse then the ma^s but better or worse, they are fun damentally unlike one another, and often unlike themselves. Poets and novelists may, to a great degree, be re sponsible for the average man's opinion of woman. The poets have ordinarily used her as a vehicle of pission and ro mance as a source of light to set off the darkness of men's sins She has been portrayed as their better angel, as turn ing them from vicious courss, as com forting them in illne and affliction, as recompensing and b'eseing them after all iheir trials with her unalterable love.
