The considerable number OF deaths by burning this

THE RED PETTICOAT.
| The Bslmorsl. hap.ess Scotch bantirg thrivcs-sa
| the sbop-wrdows. in which unprohtabse insctsoo q
seems quite likely to remain forever unless BY Ssppy
chance it Ike revived by the mudd, ways Of Gsthsa
next Fall The Balmoral ard the red petticost have

tered a,so of Maroon green, crimsou striped o. wa
| embossed borders SO far as oui.odoor lie s co..
cerned both have died 80 naturally that there seesas
scarcely hope Of r,suscitsion; they arc worn "
some. however, in breakfast dishabille. with sea
| robes OF colors to contrast favorsbly.
LINGERIE.
In ,he very expensivo and important item OF ths hssr
| linen, of alcdy's toet-coiars sleeves, etc.-we hnA
complete change Chemsettes, alas! are ignored. Ok
cent in modified form With the square coSsage; ooaao
are a. small as can possibly be worn; those msde a
yaepcienpes Inserting snd edging quite the favsss
t,ls sleeve. close at the wrist-ths embroidered caa
in size and design corresponding with the collar An
other pretty style for young persons made Of lace saA
,ulle puffpgs. trimmed with papillon bows OF eughA
coors breakfast made OF pique or maIseuies
| embroidered with white or red-the conar smau ano
.ouare TUNED over ribbon which fsstens in grace
eu bud in front; sleeves close, with cufs ht'ing uga
| to the wrist and fastened with sleeve.buttoas.
Fichus. Though anything but novelty, will bs msoh
worn during the coming season; these hget' grsocs~
sddenda to a dinner or evening toilet possess tho
additional advantage of being quite inexpensive; thsv
are made of wash or siA illusion, edged with rchss
and thickly besprnked with tiny bows. aowsf.buts.
or sprigs of chenille.

gyts eIuplo, ,ment to needlewomen, world be asuf-
cent we're il not the melancholy truth thai they ere
net the persous who derive the profit Of 1t; If won'es
NUT r. for starving prices let It be on "slop' wosS.
not on the delicate embroderipg which destroys eye

dairty tss,s in this particular Q very praisoworsy
charity by taking the little eIts trouble 9i selecting
worthy woman. buying the materials. and paying Sc
J good pnce for making; moreover, by 40 doing thev
will nci only relieve honest poverty bot will be abls
to "set up" 6per articles at hsfprce. Does any 90
doubt that twenty dollar chemise in Broadway "es-
tablishment' could be made, and the maker paid gea-
erously for ten? We would earnestly urge our lsdy
readers 10 consitcr this suggestion and art upon co..
| scentOusly.
BOOTS AND SHOES.
The item Of treble. -oled boots with small but prv-
| jectirg nails" in the Princess Royals trousseau hB
proved fruitful theme for newspaper homies on tho
impiuiencs Of our country in that psrticulA<.
| their eaIy decay in consequence, etc.
Nowtisa painful duty for US to deprive then Of .
pet grievance but the truth of the matter that there
il really no occasion for such waling. The days a
paper soes,' except for strictly indoor wear, -
ra,, snd gone, and f we have better motive, we
certainly could desire no more suiicing authority 70
ccr lor our assertion than that is and has been The
fashion for seveia years to thick soIes with high
heels on all promenade boots during the cold ssasoo In
a spirit Of scientific inquiry, sOleiy We have observed
tho articles Of teetcoyerDg las the shoemaker sdvs-
tisements say by ladies' during tho past sessos d
bad walking and We can affirm that in no instance, sx-
cep where poverty compelled it, we're the feet mpru-
IDENTIFY clad Not only Inda-rubber 0vefshoes and oven
hgh boots for wet weather, but fine caGskin boots
with cork soes are generally adopted for Wntes vcsr.
Any fsshonsbs shoemaker could easily satisy thses
gentle men Of their mistake.
