VwVrwenr Is hardly Susceptible to thoso constant variations in style, which affect every detail of outward dress, bill it Is nevertheless a subject to which fas tidious women devote almost as much coxugderation, says a writer in Toilettes. The changes which appear are very largely dictated by the prevailing fashion in gowns, clinging or bouffant as the lines may demand. The- new lingerie is close and soft, and of what might b^ termed the unstarched variety, with trimmings almost wholly WHITE CLOTH HOUSE GOWN, ***** **"" \ Jr^^J^ Made With Fine Tucks.

Yards upon yards of it, in bii lowj softness, light an 1 yielding. Petticoats, which are to be very ge;i eially worn, are trimmed elaborately, not only with deep flojnees and foot ruffles, but in d< ference to the long skirt to be raised over it, is trimmed eighteen or twenty inches up the back, with inser tions of tuckings and lace, and panels of openwork embroidery. Point de Paris and Valenciennes con tinue as the laces most desirable, and art- much more extensively used than embroid' red edges, excepting the very fine handwork of French garments. Short underskirts are made to match petticoats and will be more generally j worn than for several years past, al- | though many women wishing to avoid j a single extra band prefer the pretty j little knee length Margierite chemise, I whose full baby waist, gathered with a ribbon, forms a corset cover as well. The chemise as the initial garment is not considered up-to-date, but as combin ation cover and skirt, has its play over the corset, with only a little woven vest worn next the skin. A combination corset cover and walk- Ing length petticoat, has a tuck girdle ef t(vi, which fits it snugly about the waist and hips, and the trimming around the bottom is from twenty to twenty-four inches deep. Corset covers are all waist length, with out buttons. Either French or full fronts ,t:. ing with ribbons, or crossed fichus. Drawers will not he narrow or ap proaching the knickerbocker which we heard vague rumors of last fall. They will be but a modification of the extreme umbrella pattern, with ruffles a trifle less full, and deep leg trimmings. Bias flounces have quite the petticoat swing. These are sometimes introduced without an under foundation, the flounces being attached to the edge of the body of th garment, which is regulated in depth ! according to the flounce. The paquin, or Spanish flounce, for further attractive ness, may show narrow r.iftles. IDEAL NECKWEAR AXD JEWELRY.

There is a new device which wakes the wear tof earrings without having the ears ed perfectly possible.

It is worn close around the throat, with an amulet suspended. A "taiior-made ring" is the name giv en a little fad. A huge tur^uois in plain .solid setting, is supposed to be worn alone, with the strictly tailor-made street gown. Amethysts are quite the thing, and figure largely in ail varieties of novelty jewelry. / FASHION BTOTES. Many of the soft leather bags now enr ricd display the initial of their owner wrought In pearl, turquoise, coral or any other stone. Perfumed bottles are sold with a bunch of the flowers from which the n;mc. of tho particular scent is derived attache lj to the neck of the bottle, such as violets ; heliotrope, or lilies of the valley. Gold girdles, made of woven cloth ot gold, are bordered with bands of velvet! and attached to a jeweled and'enameled | belt. Silver belts arc ornamented witn every kind or" jewel imaginable, coral, I pearls, turquoise, and any other stone. Cloth dresses are trimmed with stiched bands, with panne, satin or peau de soie, and very beautiful medallions of fur and crepe and other soft materials A capital fabric* is the kid cloth, which has all the charm of satin cloth, without its gl..>ss, and is more tenacious of thread. Handaorhe black costumes are beina prepared for the coming Lenten season in faced cloth, drap royal, camel's hair i Eolienne, costume satin, and mohair. For general spring wear, all the delicate! neutral tones in cloth and soft, light wool take a prominent place among me season's favored materials. Deep flounces put on in box pleats figure I on some of the skirts intended for skat- i ing, for it sems to be recognized that a ' short skirt for this amusement should i be bouffante at the foot, and is often I rendered so by infinitesimal flounces be- i neath. The bodices are made as close i fitting as posible, and the huts can hard- : ly be too gay. Red is and always has ! been fashionably worn on the ice.

Then there Is the Princesse polonaise and the revived sur tout, which is of masculine origin. Dark blue cloth, trimmed with very tine gold braid makes beautiful long cloaks. Spanish turbans of Mack Malin.es net are the very latest hats for demi-dres» uses. No color appeal's upon crown or brim. There are merely soft draperies of the Mallnes. with matching choux and loops, a large black rose, and a quaintly shaped cut-jet buckle. It Is also the fashion to have a little jacket of cloth o* velvet over any sort of a stylish blaciv skirt: and where the jacket fastens—a little to one side as a rule—there is a large rosette of Malines net of chiffon, with sometimes long narrow end of the same Tailing from the choux to several inches below the waist. En suite, with a skirt of satin-finished black pcau de soie, is a new bolero jacket of black velvet, finished around the lower part with scroll-like edge.3. White satin covered with guipure--the designs picked out with tiny jet and gold beads—forms the wide collar, reyers, and small turn back cuffs. The w . v.ith its high stock and full underViccves, gathered into a narrow band of the jet and gold, are of finely tucked white satin. Nothing is more fashionable for full drass mourning gowns. The Russian blouse, as an outdoor garment would seem to have charms for fashionable people, probably because it shows off the girdles or beits and looks very well with a plain skirt! Some of the smartest of tailor-made THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1901. gowns are in opal-gray, trimmed with panne of the same shade, and made .with a Louise XV., coat over a tucked bloaso. The turned-down collai's a l'Aiglon figure on these, as well as many other outdoor garments. Felt hats are made exactly the same color as the dress but elabor ately trimmed, and the large muff In unison, displaying lace trimmings com plete a very desirable and stylish outdoor toilette. The fabrics composing eomo of the smartest taiior costumes for next season are 'made of a fine, light quality of French camel's hair serge. They are silk-lined, but the shapely skirts are merely flushed with rows of silk stitch ing. The little jacket-fronts turn back from a vest of cream satin, showing a simple trimming of gold brad and but tons, tucking, bri:ir stitching or a dainty arrangement on each side of the front of Bilk a,ppliques of very delicate coloring-. Black-and-white effects will be quitc as prominent as ever during the coming season; for youthful wearers who do not care for this combination, are blue, chestnut brown, opal-gray, tan, and Rus sian green, covert .suitings, with often two ve=ts accompanying the tailor suit selected; one of deep red vesting, with hair linos of gold or brown: the other or cream color decorated with scroll and raim patterns in black and gold. When the darker colors are found more becom ing, friar's or Oxford c;ray. or deep sable brown shades of silky English serge or cheviot, are worn with a vest of braided red cloth. E|s IN ST.

Mrs. Sarah Lessinger, near Stuart, Neb., says: "My little girl eight years old, has always been a delicate child, and has not been able to stay in school long at a time, for she often fainted and was weak and puny, until last February she had a sick spell, and 1 began feeding her on Grape-Nuts food. "I can truthfully say the result has far exceeded my expectations She is now hearty, well, and can run and play as other children do. lam trying an exper iment this summer on leaving out meat altogether for breakfast and using Gra;;e- Nuts food instead. Thus far we have all been unusually well, and my men folks (we are farmers) say that they do not get hungry so quick when they use Grape-Nuts food as they used to when they had meat." It is a profound fact that Grape-Nuts food will furnish more nourishment to the system, than bread or meat. Any one can prove the truth of this statement oy trial. THE GOLDEN IDOL." —BY FERGUS HUME. Synopsis of Preceding Chapters—The scene opens on Fletmmulh Pier, whe*- t . Norah AVarton is awaiting the arrival of her lover, Lieut Jayne, just home from Chinese waters. Among other things the young sailor has brought with him Is a six-inch idol of beaten gold, which Norah seizes eagerly to place on the mantel piece. Accidentally, however, it gets dropped into a tall Chinese jar, which, for the time, the tale lefLves it. Next clay Lieut Jayne is missing, and Norah remembers that on the pier he had no ticed a Chinaman waiting, and that after wards he had seemed less willing to give her the idol. A boat is found on th •? beach somewhat damaged, and witli blood marks on the white pai-it. Rowluna Gaskell, r cousin of Jayne's, who also loves Norah, threatens to foreclose a mortgage on Jaync's property, lie also suggests that Philip Wharton, Norah's brother, is responsible for Lieut. Jayne" s disappearance. Norah meets her brother Philip, and. distressed at his appearance, tells the Golden Idol to provide him with money. She receives a mysterirms intimaiic-n that on surrender of the idol Jayne would be i-eleased. In spite of every inquiry, Teddy had failed to find any trace of him. It seem ed, at least, that he was no longer in the neighborhood to be a coarse of trou ble to his mother and his sisters, and with that knowledge Teddy had to remain content. There was no advantage to be gained by prosecuting further inquiry into the cause of his flight. It was bound to be a disreputable cause, and Teddy, with a wisdom beyond his years, already advocated the axiom that no good was ever done by stirring muddy water. Philip, the scamp, having taken himseir off. Norah, to whom the fact of his mere priximity was a nightma c. breathed more freely. Incidentally Vyse made another discov ery. The Chinaman, Jinfou, who had haunted Fletmouth for so long, had lelt the town quite suddenly. This was bad news indeed to Teddy, for he had been looking to him to throw some light on the dark mystery of the Eoojum and to explain the meaning of the name Wang- He, which apparently was of such evil portent. But there was no doubt about it. Jinfou had vanished from the sea port slums as unexpectedly as he had appeared in them. There was no other immediate source front which to le;ir;» the things that he would know. He, from his mere nationality, would surely have been able to throw some light on the history of the idol. In his absence there seemed nothing forTt but to await with the best patience possible an an swer to Gaskell's advertisement. Still, thought Teddy, there could ue no liLiim in communicating with some yacht ing agency in London, with a view to eliciting information about the Fairy and her owner, Mr. Humble. Failing the ad vertisement, the yacht was the next Lest clue to follow. To Norah the suspense came very hardly. She said little about her anxiety to her mother, for Mrs. Wharton was, as ever, v/rapped up in her own troubles, imaginary or otherwise, and her faniily knew better than to apply to her for sympathy in any circumstances. The day on which £75 had to be paid to Eli Marks was drawing very near, and Mrs. Wharton had no idea where she was to get the money. The consequences of non-payment would likely be both sure and swift. It seemed as If there would be no -other course open to her but to apply to Gaskell or to Teddy. If the worst came to the wrorst, she knew that Teddy' would readily supply the money; but the boy's age made It very difficult for her to place herself in such a position towards him. Not that Master Teddy was not quite able to take care of him self and his money. .She knew well he would be quick to refuse a request if he did not feel like granting it. But even so, she; decidc-d, an appeal to him must be the last resource. Meanwhile she waited, hoping against hope, for some thing to "turn up" which should render such an expedient unnecessary; and, in strange contrast to her usual habits, she said nothing on the subject to her daughters, who were, both of them, ap parently obvious of the financial disas ter which threatened them. They knew that the money was due, and from ex perience they also knew that when money was due it generally had to be {raid; But of the exact date they were ignorant, and for the rest, the very stir ring nature of the events which had re cently happened had relegated somewhat to the background the usual petty and sordid troubles, which, unhappily, had becomo only too permanent a feature of life in Trafalgar Villa. Perhaps in some degree because of the misery which so permeated her home life, Norah was in the habit of seeking what relaxation she could in the open air. Towards the end of that week, having started forth on one of her rambles, more particularly to escape the nagging of her mother than anything else, she found herself quite close to Beach cot tage. She had not forgotten her prom ise to Rowland—that she would not in terfere with his management of the case, and up to the present she had refrained from any further action. But she was growing desperate now. Day after day it seemed week after week to her—was passing and still there was no news. She felt she could not be doing wrong by dropping in lor a few moments' chat with old Bendigo. Rather to her surprise, he was not on his deck as usual. In answer to her call, however, he suddenly appeared from the back of the house with a spade over his shoulder. He looked a trifle less hale and hearty, she thought, than he gener ally did. There was on his face a wor ried expression, which, from experience, Norah knew much too well not to recog nize. "What," she wondered, "could an old fellow like Bendigo have to worry him?" She began to think that Philip might be right after all, and that Bendi go knew more than he chose to tell. Nor Was his sullen greeting of her calculated to oiispel any suspicion. "How are you, Bendigo?" said Norah, seating herself in one of the lounging chairs in the verandah. '•Well enough in eaith. miss. But I'm j worried—you may call it—tliat worried— 1' | He shook his head gloomily, laid dov/n the spacle, and rolled his quid with a re- i fiective air. But he did not meet her ! eyes. "About your master?" said Norah gently. • "Which of 'era?" asked Bendigo, sav agely. 'The dead 'un, or the live 'un?" "Mr. Jayne is not dead," cried Norah, ! knowing well that ho referred to Row- j land as the "live un." 'He is alive, | and you know it." "That's what Mr. Gaskell 'c said, missy, i Come and told me that 1 know'd where ! the lootenant was. Well, an' I do know, j 'E's dead an' buried." "In London?" "In the deep sea^. mis~y. Wasn't there blood in that there»*oat an' didn't he g:> j out in it, an' 'adn't 'c the soocide god?" "No, he had not. The suicide god was ' left wtth me. Come now, Bendigo; you j saw Leonard on that night?" "I didn't, missy. I never went outer ; this 'ouse. That's, jus' what Mr. Gas kell 'c said. Why. what's it to do with me? Am t I wtehlfc* to see the lootenant, I if only to give lira them papers? Not as i 'eH ever git "em now, seem' 'c's dead." i "In that ease/ Bendigo, give them to j me." 'No, missy, I.shan't. You're the other as is tryin' to git: 'em. Cap'n Jayne 'c I said: 'Give them papers to myson, an' only to my son; or I'll come back an' 'aunt you, I will. An' as I doesn't want i no 'aunting I'll -keep them papers with j your leave, mtssys- Es the lootenant's I dead there ain't' no one as 'as the right to look at "em." 'You know what they are?" "No, I dunno, missy. The Cap'n gave "em to me, an' they're sealed. I've hid 'em away till the time comes to go aloit. | Then I'll burn 'em." "You have not right to do that, Ben- j digo." "i 'aye, missy," said the old man, dog gedly; "only the lootenant's to look on AUTHOR OF: "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab," "Monsieur Judas," "The Nameless City," "The Dwarf s Cham ber," "The Red- Headed Man," etc. 'em. Mr. Gaskell 'c comes an' says I might be taken by the lootenant's dls appearin'. An' says he 'ed save me if I guv up them papers. But perlfce, or no perlice, I don't 'and them over." Norah reflected. This was the sort of obstinacy which. it was useless to try and combat. Even Gaskell fs threat had failed to loosen his tenacious gras© of the charge left him by the dead. She rather wondered that Gaskell should make use of Philips letter in such a way. "What makes you so sure that Mr. Jayne Is dead, Bendigo?' '"Cause it's borne in upon me, missy. He'd a come 'ome else. An' Dinchs boat, an' the blood, an" the soocide " "But, Bendigo, the suicide god, If it was one, was left with me, and I sold it to Gen. Burnley. Mr. Jayne never had it on that night." "He's dead though, take my word for it, missy—dead as a 'errin". You sold the soocide god to the general, did yer?" Bendigo looked across the waste to the distant home of Gen. Burnley. 'Well, 'ell die too, now 'c's got it." "But I didn't die. Bendigo." "You didn't 'aye it long enough, missy. Oh, I've card of that soocide god!" He paused. "I wish Mr. Gaskell ad it," said Bendigo, vindictively. "Why?" Norah was puzzled to account for the vicious tone of the old man. " 'Cos 1 don't trust 'im, missy. 'E's al ways a tryin' :to git 'old o' them pa rt rs: 'c comes 'ere an' talks to me o' the perlice, 'c does. But c don't git nothin' from me—not that way. I s'pose 'ell be a comin' 'ere for good now as the lootenant's gone aloft. But I'll go, an' the papers with me. I've my pension, and medals, that I 'aye, missy; an' I ain't the sort as goes for to disobey my, Cap'n's orders—no that I ain't. True blue is old Bendigo, an" cass all land lubbers like Gaskell." "Bendigo, you forget yourself." Norah rose to go, with this dignified reproof. "I axes your pardon, missy. But 'e"s a land shark that lawyer gent is; an' I don't trust Mm nohow." "So you are quite determined not to give me the papers, Bendigo?" "No, missy; "scuse me, out iwrjlb't be right. Don't turn a man from his plain dooty, miss." "Well"—Norah felt helpless in the face of this—"perhaps you'll think better of it later on, Bendigo." He did not answer save by an eloquent shake of the head as she walked away. He was looking intently in the direction of Gen. Burnley's house." "So you've got the soocide god, 'aye yer?" he muttered. "Well, you won't be long a-joinin' the Cap'n an' the looten ant, or I'm a Dutchman!" (To Be Continued Daily.) World to End This Year.
