Mrs. Irtorre Lorillard has had a lot of
aeuralgia thU autumn, and, perhapa,
this frxouQU for the heavy purple cloak
ahe wore as she drove out Thanksgiv
ing day, with hhjh collar and full lapel
of purple velvet and long, full skirts
showing a purple and bhtck lining. The
cloak was short'Waisted far even out
door garment are in the empire style
and w tri:nmed acrota the bust and
around the bottom with sable bands.
A mountainous sable muff with it;
muffs are nearly as big as churchea this
autumn. -
There's a gv4i deal of purple, and an
other cloak color that takes is green.
There was a woman at the horse show
last week in a three-quarter length
myrtle green mantle, as novel as any
thing I have yet seen. It hung from a
yoke in very full folds, with rows of
otter circling it from the bottom np to
a full cspe-that took its origin from the
yoke also and, with its otter boarder,
reached about to the waist line. The
cape parted in the back and long green
rib boas hung from the parting. It had
two rrxnina owira.
a standing collar, that flared aboat the
face and was fur-edged, and it had a
black silk lining dotted with roses.
I don't know why people have dresses
with fur about the bottom except for
the pleasure of wanton destruction.
Let me tell yon a little tale of a gown.
It is mine, and it Is blue and meant for
street wear. I got It on the 11th of
September. On the 1st of October I
had a new bindiog put to it. In the
middle of October I had another, and
November 1 a third. In ten weeks the
frock has been rebottomed five times.
' Jf o wonder the dressmakers and seam
stresses like the long gown fashion, but
never was a style conceived that was
more filthy, wasteful and diajrusting.
The Thanksgiving dances brought
oat some pretty evening dres&ea. At
Tuxedo a pretty Philadelphtan won any
amount of admiration for her tiny blue
slippers and her pale bine chiffon dress
with its side pieces of moss green velvet
faced with pink, and its full chiffon
bodice, velvet bandod. Strange - color
comt4nations are allowed this winter,
for she wore the wraith-like yellow
witch hazel blosaoms In her hair and at
her bosom; they looped her skirt draper
ies also.
Mks Drexel. who waa married last
week. Las a peculiarly graceful pink
wearing gown in her trousseau. The
shirt is of pink satin, with a white
satin rnche at bottom threaded
with lines of silver passementerie.
The bodice is a white satin corse
let, silver embroidered and with a
glimpse of pink chiffon showing above.
Over the bosom is a big white satin
bow. The sleeves are three puffs each
of chiffon tied about with white rib
bons. . .
Another .novelty is a creamy brown
evening silk for Helen Gammell. the
rich Rhode Inland belle. This skirt is
fully five yards wide acd is nadded on
the hipa to accentuate the Mlinnes of
the waittt. A brown velvet corselet is
cut out In Vandykes and worn over a
full cream colored bodice and under
when the music stopped and a carriage
was called a long white' brocade wrap
figured with brownish pink roses and
edged with sable fur. The black against
the white was startling.
What is there new in black? All
eMerly women are interested In the
question. Little, trly. Black watered
silk is worn a good deal, with jet girdle
and heavily jetted sleeves. The black
velvet polonaise is r?vived and makes
a stately trailing robe over a silk pet
tieoat of onvlight or neutral hue. Uig
fichu draperies come out with the black
frock in white lace run with black
ribbons.'
. Loosely tied safthe of black corded
ribbon are ventord even by the

mothers. Etxrv Osborx.

THEY DibTURBEO HIS NAP.
Wa aiMff; a M Lft a4
friU Wat Aim tr homlg U.
The moist remarkable adventure 1
know of waa that of a ten-year-old boy
In Colorado, said Kienxi Bciiuchaaip to
a St. LMiLi Globe-Democrat man. "A
party of us had gone from Pueblo fur a
week's hunting and fishing akmg the
Arkan&as river. We carried teats aud
camped out.
"A man named Britton had his young
son with hint a manly little fellow,
who could land a trout and bring down
an antelope with the bt of us. One
day he got separated from the party,
Vt his way, and tpent the night In the
mountains, lie had with him a short
thirty-eight-ealiber sporting ; rifle, a
good weapon for small game, but ia tha
section where we camped mountain,
lion were plentiful. Mi ftier wa
well-nih distracted, and we searched
all night for the adventurous youngster
without avail! Just at sun up we
started to return to camp. As we de
scended a ravine we discovered the ob
ject of our fcearch sound asleep, with
hps head pillowed on an enormous
mountain lion, which was curled ap a
though enjoying a nap. Three, f ua
approached cautiously to within fifty
yards, drew a bead on the animal and
at a given signal fired.
"The brute never stirred. The boy,
hnm we siinnosed dead, half rose.
rubbed his eyes, and inquired peevishly:
What are you fellers tryin f do? I
killed this yere lion four hours ago.
DRUNK ON MUSHROOMS.
Tta Sort of httaialant Ced by the Ihk-
Hanl of Northeastern Asia.
The inhabitants of the northeastern
part of Asia use a mushroom to promote
intoxication. It is known as the fly
blown mushroom, and the Horticultural
Times says it Is also very abundant in
Scotland. The fungus is gathered in
the hottest part of the year, and is then
hung up by a string in tne atr to dry.
Some are dry before gatnertxx ana tneae
are said to be far more narcotic than
those artificially preserved. Usually
the funcnis is rolled up like a bolus and
taken without chewing, for, if masti
cated, it U said to disorder the stomach.
One larire or two small fengi produce
what is looked upon as a pleasant state
of Intoxication for one day. ineenect
Is the bame as that produced on taking
a quantity of spirits or wine, except it
is delayed from one to two hours after
the bolus has been swallowed. At first
it produces very cheerful emotions of
the mind. It renders some persons ex
ceedingly active, and is a stimulant to
muscular exertion. Thus, if aperaon
affected by it wishes to step 'over a
straw or a small stick it impels him to
take a jump sufficient to clear a low
hedge or the trunk of a tree. It keeps
those fond of music perpetually singing,
and under its Influenoe a talkative per
son can neither keep secrets nor silence;
hence it is a source of danger to ladies
and politicians.
INDICATIONS OF AGE.
It Is Shown Incoutroverttbly by a Motat
Ejo aud a Dry Palm.
"Do you know the surest indication
of old age?" said a physician ,the other
day, according to the Albany Express.
"The surest indications in man, he
continued, "are a moist eye, a dry
palm and a shrinkage of the calf of the
leg. All the Indications are duo ' to
some action of the nerves consequent
upon advancing years. In the matter
of the eye the fifth section is Inter
fered with, and it is this which causes
a flow? of water. The dryness of the
palms is caused by an Interference with
the functions of the body, also due to
the action of the nerves, and the
shrinkage of the leg follows from simi
lar causes. In old age, too, you notice
some men become more corpulent than
in the early portions of thoir lives.
With drinking men the change Li often
produced by the quantity of saccharine
which they consume with their drinks,
and with those who do not drink it fol
lows from other physiological changes.
As to the hair growing gray, it results
in the. majority of cases from the par
tial closing of the hair cells and the re
duction of the quantity of natural col
oring matter which the closing pro
duces. With women the dimness of the
eye does not come so soon as it does in
men. ' -
CURIOUS COURTING.
FUhor Folk Who Marry la aa Off-Baad
Fashion.
On the shores of the Moray Firth the
spot need not be mere specifically local
ized there is a flourishing little village
of some fourteen hundred inhabitants,
consisting chiefly of fisher folk. The
young man and maiden do not court in
the orftiodox fashion. Their method is
much more prosaic, and what is charac
teristic of one case may generally be
accepted as characteristic of them all.
There is, of course, an occasional in
stance of genuine old-fashioned court
ship, but that is rather a rare excep
tion. "Mother," said one young man on his
return from a successful herring fishing;
"I'm goen to get merrid. ,
"Weel, Jeema, a think ye sh'd just
gang an ask ycr cousin Maraek. And,
as he had no particular preference, he
went straight away to ask her.
"Wnll ye Uk me, Marack? was the
bruvjue and business-like query whicn
ha put to the yoiuig woman in the pres
ence of her Mter llelia. 1
Hut Mary had promised her hand to
another that same evening. "I canna
tak ye, Jeera. was her reply; and then
turning to her sister: "Tak ye 'im, liel
lack." And the sifter txV him.

That none of our plans for the people's profit be curuikd mud
realize from the sale of S, (00,000 Souvenir World's Fair Fifty-cent Silver

Remember that onlv 5,000,000 ijoms must oe Qivioca among
