He Is Bent on Talking to You When You Want to Read. A Surprising 1 Tendency Among: Women— They Often Marpy Intolerable Bores. Elaborate Description of the Latest New York Styles for Women. Special Letter to the (ilobe. New York, Jan. 2G, V'T,.— There is no one in the wide, wide world that 1 owe suoli a bitter grudge to as the person who bores me. Whata large portion of my time lie lias made a desert of ! lam only a type of a larse class, inasmuch as 1 am easily bored. I cannot make the best of every one, and though I am aware that i am unchris tian in suying so, 1 would prefer that others cultivated these dormant, yet, doubtless,' tcootl qualities, which some bores possess. People talk about "the burden of life." The burden of life is really an other term for being bored. You pro babiy all have some bore who is always somewhere riot far off, so that you don't require a definition ot it. You know what it is, something that oppresses you. Something that talks when you want to read, and is silent when you want to talk, something that makes your heart sink when you hear it's foot step, and always comys too early and stays too late. It is something that al ,vays says the tliin? that would be better left unsaid, and is as silent as the crave when the most imbecile remark would break an uucoinfoitable silence. And yet some people have bores for mothers and fathers, and some have them for sisters and brothers, and some even marry bores. Think of that! I don't mean they marry the bores who are just the bore to other people, but the bores that particularly bore them . Am 1 clear? To simplify matters, 1 mean to say, some people are foolish enough to many the people who bore them. And then they talk about in compatibility of temper. Why, half the quarrels arise from being bored for a longer time than human nature can stand. Most bores are eood natured. They don't like to leave you because they think you are lonely, and they offer sympathy on matters which you hope would pass unnoticed. This is because they have a surplus supply of good na ture which they want to dispose of, and they don't know where to send it. Sometimes they will converse. That is when they are at their worst. When their small talk ebbs over, and they wear a subject threadbare. Alter these remarks the question naturally arises: "Are we ever boies ourselves?" '•Would some kind fay the uiltie gie iis, To see ourselves as others see us." No, no, not that: the knowledge would be too terrible. The powers that keep the fashionable world going are appar ently absorbed in fashioning things for spring wear. It seems early to" talk about sprint fashions while the sleighs are still ud and down Fifth avenue, ami the enthusiastic skaters are still crowd ing up to Van Courtland with their vat— Ming freight hanging over their arms. But the modistes are like the bees, working in the winter for the season ahead. ft « U^^.'%'y///%/ / /- /i§ ■■'■/I \ Our sketch this week consists of the front and back view of a very stylish empire coat.

Velvet is the material most favored, and Redfern is turning out very many stylish costumes composed of velvet, the coat, skirt anil bodice trimmed with jet. These costumes are veiy handsome. The coats are (three quarters length, the skirts of them being very lons and large, and falling in and out in picturesque folds. If goes with out saying- that these coats are sur mounted with capes .of the same ma terial made in the frilly way so much in vogue.
