Bunting Costumes.

Washington Cor. Cincinnati Gazette.
The bunting fever is at its height, and
[ suppose Gen. Buffers marked visage
must wear an expression Of most supreme
placidity, as he is quite extensively in
terested in the manufacture Of this de-
sirable and fashionable material. A
gentleman here who is connected with
General B., in his fortunate enterprise
has recently presented his wife-not
with dress of the material-but with
an elegant residence on K street, |
suppose just as a specimen of the rich
ness of bunting dividends. / saw some
such pretty suits last Sunday that l
must describe two or three. One was a
cream white princess bunting, piped with
cardinal, while the hat was leghorn, with
trimmings to match, and cardinal roses
interspersed. Another bunting was a
white, shading into delicate tinge of
green called sea foam, while the chip hat
had the same dainty tint, as well as the
foamy plume, roses and long ribbon
streamers, gros grain on one side and
satin faced on the other. Another suit
was of navy blue, trimmed with bands of
embroidery, on which pale blue bells and
for-get-me-nots are apparent. The
basque was a la Breton, and, of course,
trimmed with the sequin pearl buttons,
al we'll as the pockets and side loopings
of the overskirt. The bonnet was a
dead white chip trimmed with garands
OF for-get-me-nots and pink nodding
dalses.

Fashion Notes.

SILVER ornaments and charms strung
from a chatelaine are worn on the left
side.
LADIES of fashion have abandoned
linen cuffs, and wear close fitting dress
sleeve and long wristed glove.
NEW collarettes are composed of altern-
ate putfings of muslin and rows of lace
tied with colored ribbons
A NEW ornament for bangles, brooches,
and watch chains is the campanella, a
square Roman bell, made of gold or of
silver
TURKISH BLUE, which is made up of
purple and red, is the popular color for
summer umbrellas for ladies. There are
also Chinese yellow parasols.
THE newest settrng for solitaire ear
drops is cross-bar of solid black enamel
fitting close to the ear, from which the
jewel swings in silver claws
In coiffures decided rules are seldom
given; the hair is arranged according to
the taste and appearance Of the wearer
they are, however, much less elaborate
than formerly. The aim seems now to
have the head appear as small and
shapely as possible. To do this the hair
is twisted into simple Grecian knot.
Often the hair is plated and arranged
into a catogan. False hair is at dis
count.
So much complaint is heard nova
days of the poor quantity of black silks
that wearers of this fabric are misled into
believing that this material has ceased to
be made as handsome as it was in the
past. The mistake is great one; silks
are made as handsome and handsomer
than they were before and they will out
last every other dress if properly made.
But cheapness and value do not go to-
gether in silks any more than anything
else, and SO long as the public demands
cheap silks just SO long will they be
weighed and have that greasy appear
ance so much objected to. Bonnet's
black gros grain is an excellent braid of
good silk and will be found to be a
thoroughly useful make for ordinary
wear. 1t comes in eight varieties, and
the finest is fit to deck queen. Black
cachemire sublime is a desirable brand,
exquisite in texture and Of desirable
width. A useful silk is the cachemine
de Tours, corded make in ten varieties,
which is recommended for ordinary wear,
for walking costumes, NANTES or polon-
aises.

gets good chance, [ suppose" 1t is
now and then you meet the glance of
real sympathy, generally from the poor
est and humblest men that you meet, and
feel your eyes fill at the token, SO rare
that it is, alas! unlocked for. 1t Is to
have your dear, fashionable friend con-
sole you after the following fashions:
cob! well, it is dreadful loss. We
knew you'd feel it DEAR And in the
next breath, You will be sure to marry
again, and your widows cap is very be-
coming to yon." But it is more than
this to be a widow. 1t is to miss the
strong arm you have leaned upon, the
true faith that you knew never failed
you though all the world might forsake
you. 1t is to miss the dear voice that
uttered your name with tenderness
that none other could give it. 1t is to
hear no more the well known footsteps
that you flew so gladly once to meet.
To see no more the face that to your
adoring eyes seemed as the angels of
God. To feel no more the twining arms
that folded you so lovingly; the dear
eyes, that, looking into your own, said
plainly, whatever it might seem to 9TH
ers yours was the fairest face earth held
for him. 1t is to fight with sorrow as a
man lights with the waves that over
whelm him, and to hold it at arms
length for while only to have--in the
hours of loneliness and weakness-this
torrent roll over you, while--poor,
storm-driven dove-you see no haven.

The Lords of Creation,

A correspondent of the Pittsburg
Chronicle reads the following lecture to
the husband of the day:
Why don't somebody tell the husband
of the day that he must come home to
his wife with smile instead Of the in,
evitable scOwl upon his face? That if
he will be about half as polite to his
wife after as before marriage, she will be
grateful and astonished. That he must
not be too tired to do little thing for
her if she asks him pleasantly. That it
would not hurt him or his dignity" to
take the baby in his strong arms for a
time while his wife rests her weak and
weary ones. That he must spend less
money in. the purchase of cigars and
chewing tobacco and-s something else,
so that there may be more saved, or ex-
pended upon home comforts. That if
the mutton chops happen to be not quite
to his liking, he might consider that his
wife was probably so busy with some
thing equally, or more important, as to
have been unable to attend to the chops,
and if he would pleasantly say, "My
dear, | suppose you were too busy to look
after the SUPPER know it is all right
when you are not, they will be all right
next time, if such a thing is possible
That he must learn to eject tobacco Juice
beyond instead Of upon his shirt front
That mustache dripping with cream or
coffee is not the most artistically beauti-
full sight in the world. That he must
once in while, say twice a year, or three
times-I don't want to startle all the
married men into apoplexy-offer his
wits reasonable amount of money for
personal expenses. That when an
amiable man loses his amiability over a
cruet-stand or key, or shirt, or a
table-cloth, or mustard-pot, he ought to
be-well there! Who ever saw an
"amiable husband?"

What Ladies Do in California,

A contributor of the Fresno E.1positor
gives an account Of the very independ-
ent way the ladies of the Central Cali
fornia Colony contrive to show their
entire independence Of the men:
At the colony we saw not only intelli-
gent, educated women, working in the
fields, but the women were highly cul-
tivated, delicately nurtured, accom-
plished and accustomed to all the
amenities Of the higher grades of city
life. At the corner of North and Elm
avenues we saw a lady experimenting
the planting and doing part of the work
herself. At the same place another
lady, an efficient teacher, was running
water through an irrigating ditch to
submerge two acre field, probably for
alfalfa. Half mile further lady was
stalking COW on an alfalfa patch, while
her neighbor opposite stood in the midst
Of a larger flock of hens than we have
seen together for some time Here we
saw five varieties of blooded poultry,
and were told that over 1000 chickens
were in process of incubation and being
raised this season, in addition to the Gull
tivation of an extensive vegetable and
flower garden, and the raising of over
10000 orange and lemon trees, and all
this by a lady Of education and refine
ment, with family of four children.
On Cherry avenue a lady and her two
daughters, both black-eyed, rosy-cheeked
beauties, were laying out circular veg
etable garden and planting Italian
expresses and orange trees on the margin
of their carriage drive. But not the
least interesting sight we saw, was near
the south canal, on Elm avenue. Here
were a lady and her daughter, appar-
entity slight built girl Of some Is or 20
summers, actually engineering new
canal across their farm to reach the top
of piece of high land across slough.
To ascertain if there were sufficient fall
to run water from the water gate to the
desired point, the ladies had set line of
stakes, surveyor fashion, one-eighth of a
mile, from point to point; then with a
large triangle and plumb, evidently i'm
proyised on the spot, dead level across
the slough was determined and fall OBJ
tainable noted. The younger lady SEEM
to be the engineer.

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.
The Little Brown Seed i'm the FurrOW.

BY IDA w. BENIIAM.
A little brown seed in the furrow
Lay still in its gloomy bed,
While violets blue and lilies white
We're whispering overhead.
They whispered of glories strange and rare,
OF glittering dew, and floating air,
OF beauty and rapture everywhere
And the seed heard all they said.
Poor little brown seed in the furrrow!
So close to the lilies feet
So far away from the great, glad day,
Where life seemed all complete!
In her heart she treasured every word,
And she longed for the blessing Of which she heard
For the light that shone and the airs that stirred
In that land, SO wondrous sweet!
The little brown seed in the furrow
Was thrilled with strange unrest;
A warm new hope beat mblingIy
In the tiny, heaving breast;
With ner two small hands clasped close tn pra YER
She lifted them up in the darkness there;
Up, up, through the sod toward sun and air,
Her folded hands she pressed.
0 little brown seed in the furrow,
AT last you have pierced the mold!
And, qulvering with life intense
Your beautiful leaves unfold,
Like wings outspread for upward flight
And slowly, slowly, in dew and light,
sweet bud opens--til in Gods sight,
I GU wear crown of gold!
So. Nicholas

Wedding Etiquette.
From the New York World.

The old-time fancy for distributing
wedding favors is again in vogue; directly
after the ceremony and while the new
married pair, with the more immediate
relatives, are signing the register, the
bridesmaids dispense them. The gifts
designed for the lady guests consist of
small bows Of white satin ribbon tying
little sprays of jessamine; those for the
gentlemen are d spray of oak leaves and
acorns without ribbon, while the brides
maids favors have some distinctive
mark, such as spray of forget-me-nots.
Their bouquets are the gift OF the bride
groom, and are sent before the ceremony
with the locllet or other souvenir which
he presents them. He also furnished the
bride with her flowers for the occasion.
Wedding breakfasts are now often ar
ranged on the plan of ball supper, with
several round tables and a long buffet,
where the majority of the company take
their lunch standing, the tables being
appropriated to the relatives of the bride
groom and the principal guests. Ere
