Olle of the novelties of the season is
the tailored costume in heavy siik,
sti; bed and pressed and treated like
cloth. One of tiiese cost tunes in phiai
color is triiiimed with plum colored
cloth straps running up and down the
skirt between broad box plaits. There
is u plaitetl liolero. with a collar and
girdle trimmed with a cloth
band, j
which are stitched a 'id ornamented
with fancy lira id having a toin h of
goid. Another walking costume of
steel colored cloth has a skirt and short
tunic trimmed with stitching. There
is a box plaited blouse somewhat like
I
a tunic, although the two pieces are
soparaU-d by a broad belt of soft gray
leather. Then
lar cin!roii! T;
is a deep shoulder col- j
1 in chenille, and the j
cuffs, trimmed to match, are both broad
and wide, with hemstitched ruiiles of
linen. This somber gray is very fash
ionable, and some of the gray costumes
are made with double breasted fronts
to lhi long jacket and trimmed with
passementerie ornaments.

Fashionable foot gear indicates that
the toes are becoming narrower and
the heels higher and that with the de-
dim of the vogue of the coat and skirt !
the mannish looking shoe is passing out j
of favor. !
Most shoes for smart wear have a
glossy finish. There is a decided liking
for those which are strapped, and j
BOine of the prettiest foot gear of the j
moment consists of little groups of ;
Ftraps fastened to soles, an arrange- j
nient which sets off pretty and dainty i
stockings, but should be on no account !
adopted by women having clumsy
looking feet.
A fad of the moment is to have Ox
ford shoes laced with riblmn. Soft
riblkon will pass easily through the
eyelets, which are made n little larger J
than usual. Large, rather fiat buttons
ore seen on some of the smartest lace
kid boots, and they hok very smart.

Kalae Hair.
Wearing false hair is a very wlde-
spread upturn. In the language of the
fties. Most precious of all, however.
is hair of a true silver gray color,
which in sutuVieiitly long plaits is al
most impossible to procure, chictly from
the fact that its very rarity causes
those women lucky enough to possess it
to refuse to part with it. The most
coustant supply of human hair for the
world's market, however, conies from
the peasant girls in countries such as
Itussia and iJaliti.i, where immediately
after marriage a headddess is assumed
Avhich makes the lack of its natural
covering unnoi iceab!". In I'.oheniia,
Moravia and Caliciu there are regular
hair markets to which the women
take th
r hair for sale.
Wonderful Haiti.
Abraham Lincoln was a man whose
keen wit and pleasing humor extricat
ed him from many an embarrassing
t-ituation. On one occasion he was pre
sented with two line hats, each by a
different hattnaker, neither knowing
that the other had made such a contri
bution. In the course of events they
culled upon the president, and it s
happened that both culled at the same
time.
When both found themselves in the
presence of the executive they asked
how he had liked the hats they had
sent him, and. taking advantage of the
oportiinity of securing a statement of
superiority of one or the other make,
the president was asked to state his
preference.
To many men such a question would
Ik very embarrassing, but to Lincoln
not at fll. He took the hats, one in
each hand, and then replied gravely,
but with a mischievous twinkle in hi3
keen eves:
"tieiitlcmen. your bat do mutually
surpuss each other!"
The Ilank of i:ulnnV Museum.
The IJank of F.ngland has a curious
museum, in which the principal exhib
its are its own notes.
Among them !s n note for a penny,
which was issued by mistake and
bought back by the bank for ''.". An
other is a note for 1.0O0.(0O.
A third is a bank note which was
found inside a ctwltish caught off the
Newfoundland banks, and a fourth is
a note which was in circulation for
over a century and a half before it was
presented for pa vment.
There are many forged notes in the
museum, their value aggregating many
millions of dollars, and there are alsvi
some notes which were recovered by
divers from the sunken Wreck of the
IJritish warship Kurydice.

"At eaeh convulsive leap toward the
end of the tight the whale seemed to
grow weaker, while the thresher and
the swordtish maintained their strength.
There was only one way for the battle
to terminate, and so in the end the
whale lay still upon the surface."
"fnpiilns" Crown.
Th following account is given in
Country Life of the way i:i which pil
fering crows are dealt with by Italian
ngricultPi-ists: A hole of a certain depth
is dug in the ground, at the bottom of
which is placed some decayed meat.
A funnel shaped wedge of paper is
then insert il into the hole, the upper
i-d:re of the paper being coated with
birdlime. "Maitre Corbeau" sees the
food, descends to grasp it. and when
he has firm hold of it he rises up again.
His head is, however, swathed with
the paper cap. and in his mad endeavor
to rid himself of it he circles up to ex
traordinary heights in the air. revolv
ing constantly and at so rapid a pace
that, soon overcome witli giddiness, Le
falls to the earth dead.
Tlie Cashew nt.
The cashew nut serves a unique pur
pose as a cosmetic, in the West Indies,
where women desiring to remove ex
cessive tan anoint the skin with an oil
from the outer surface of the raw nut.
For two weeks the patient must retire
from society, for the face and hands so
treated turn black. At the end of a
fortnight's seclusion, however, the wo
man who has undergone the cashew
treatment emerges, observers state,
"with skin and complexion as fair as a
babe's."
Fortnne'i Favor Sufficient.
"What do we want with gold and
precious stones V" said the proud young
mother, gazing fondly upon the baby.
"This is fortune ioui;li for us."
"Huh:" grunted the father, who had
been walking the lloor nearly all night.
"I'm glad fortune didn't knock twice at
our door." Philadelphia Ledger.
