The Styles.

Lucy Hooper, writing of Paris fash
ions, says that they are taking a new
and attractive departure. Trimmings
have had their day, and founces, pleat-
ings, puffs and lcopings are virtually
defunct issues. Long, plain trains, re-
quiring no end of material, and rich,
heavy stuffs are the grande mode. In
trimmings jet is out of vogue entirely.
Fur bands are worn extremely wide,
and feather bands are very much the
fashion. The great novelty is band of
birds down in different colors, in which,
at equal distances, small hollow is
formed to simulate a nest, in each of
which the head of bird is placed.
The aim of dress now is to show off the
figure as much as possible. The close
fitting cuirass corsage and apron tunic
have been supplemented by the cuirass
and the tablier in one, sort of sleeve
less polonaise composed of steel or jet
beads, fastened up the back and fitting
close and smooth to the wearer's figure.
A woman with a beautiful figure, at
tired in these later styles, is delightful
to look upon. Evening dresses are
worn with corsages cut extremely long
in front and excessively low. Bonnets
are growing larger and larger, and are
trimmed with ostrich-feather trimming,
or else with two ostrich feathers crossed
over each other, silk scarf around the
crown, and behind large bow falling
on the catogan braid.

Reproduction of Old Thoughts.

Nothing is more strange than the in
cessant reproduction of old thoughts
under the guise of new and advanced
opinions. It would seem as if the hui
man mind, with all it's restless activity,
were destined to revolve in an endless
circle. Its progress is marked by many
changes and discoveries it sees and m
derstands far more clearly the facts that
lie along the line of its route, and the
modes or laws under which these facts
occur but this route in its higher levels
always returns upon itself. Nature and
ell its secrets become better known,
and the powers OF nature are brought
more under human control; but the
sources of nature and life, and thought
all the ultimate problems of being
never become more closely ineligible.
Not only SO, but the last efforts of hu-
man reasoning on these subjects are
even as the first. Differing in form,
and even sometimes not greatly in form,
they are in substance the same. Bold
as the course of scientific adventure has
seemed for time, it ends very much a
it began and men of the nineteenth
century look over the same abysses of
