How They Dress For Dinner,

The dressing, or rather undressing, of
English ladies at ''swell'' dinner parties,
drives an indignant American to write
as follows to the Cincinnati Enquirer:
Il dinner dress for lady in EnsIIsasad!
is something | tremble and shrek at.
When she gets to the drawing-room the
end Of the skirt is at the hall door, and
nothing is On her neck and bust! Like
the green salad, she comes to the table
undressed, so far as her vis-n-Ujs can see.
And the uglier, older, fatter and more
beefy she is, the more is she like the
salad. Her hair is a compound problem
in double vulgar fractions, ornamented
with fine feathers, flowers and Jewels.
Her neck is a terror to an arm of any
amorous propensites in black cloth, for
the slightest contact would carry off
much powdered starch. But around it
diamonds dwell and emeralds glitter, or
sapphres blaze. Each shoulder is orna-
mented with baby bow or band, and
these constitute the upper part of the
dress, with the exception of the small
bunch of flowers primly placed on the
chest-bone. On the altar of lady no
dressing, or no-lady dressing, | have
shattered the ten commandments and
numberless wineglasses in wrath and en-
barassment SO often, that | fear for my
present and future state. TO be placed
ris-a-vis before magnificent sample Of Il
champion young English rare-roast-beef
wife, with a one-button bodice and six
teen-buttor pair of gloves on, is making
a fellow capable of looking unuttera-
BILE things"

An Understanding Arrived At.

About 10 o'clock this morning tramp
went into G street saloon, and devoted
ten minutes in very Jealous manner to
the lunch table. BY the time he had
masticated about a pound Of corned beef,
the bar keeper stepped up and remarked:
"This table is for drinkers
"Then why don't you bring on your
drinks? I've been here ten minutes,
and haven't seen drop of anything. II
it's drinkin' table, where's the fuid?"
81 mean it's for the patrons of the
bar said the bar keeper.
"Then why amt they here? l s'pose
YOU mean that man must spend money
at the bar before he eats?"
Exactly"
"That takes me in. | took drink
here last summer and didn't eat mouth
full, and if | amt entitled to lunch Oh
that drink then this system must be a
failure all round"
"But the place has changed hands
since them" said the bar keeper picking
up bung-starter.
i"Ah, indeed?; replied the urbane
hummer; "that fact, as your gesture
would implY raises new and embar-
RAISING complication in our diplomatic
relations. / will therefore recede, as it
were, from my original position and wait
the assembling of the Peace Congress"
He had been gradually backing to:
wards the.door as he spoke, and be nodged
out lust in time to evade the projectile
hurled at him by the indignant Saloon.

A Lightning Painter.

A private letter received from an
American gentleman in Paris gives an
amusing account of a picture painted in
six minutes. Says the letter:
"We were at the Cafe Chantant the
other night. 1t is building somewhat
larger than the Corcoran Gallery Of Art.
1t is a great place for music, songs, and
dances. There was one very amusing
feature. During one of the entr'a ctes
they brought on an artist who was billed
to paint a marine view in six minutes
all finished for hanging (the picture, not
the artist).
"The canvas was brought on.
coat came the artist, q quiet, nervous
looking young man of about 80 years of
age.
ellis colors were upon the palette, and
his brushes were in his hand.
" Attention. sang out the director.
THE artist seized large brush.
CAT a signal the orchestral band
struck up clashing, maddeningly ner'
vous waltz.
GAS the first note was struck the artist
dashed mass of yellow upon the upper
part of the canvcs. Then a bit of blue,
then white, a dash of purple shadow, and
then, with quick twirl of clean brush,
dark-blue sea is again dashed into the
horizon.
"Two minutes gone.
"The waltz goes on faster and faster.
The brush keeps time. A huge rock
is sketched in with burnt sienna and
black. A lighthouse with vermillion
range light is dropped upon the top of
rock.
"Clash, crash, one, two, three, a boat
under full sail is thrown into the dim
distance. Clash, crash, one, two, three,
and another boat. is dashed in. Light
upon the waters is thrown in with free,
steady hand. A huge brush then care
fully bends the edges of the masses, and
with profound bow the artist turns to
cheering audience, satisfied that he is
through on time.
"And the wonder is that the picture is
startling good in its broad effect. 1t is
strong and clear. The colors are good,
and not muddy mixed. 1t was good a
novelty as l ever saw at any show, and
it beats all how it amuses the French

There are quite number of newly
made brides on the Bothnia, and, as
usual, they suffer more from seasickness
than any of their lady companions.
They are among the first to get sick and
the last to recover. They seldom re-
cover sufficiently to avail themselves of
the lovers retreat behind the wheel
house, and start out unon their new
lives as miserable as it is possible for
human beings to be. But their happi-
ness will return with their appetites as
soon as they set foot on shore tomorrow.
1t must be a terrible modification, how
ever, to young wife to have her hus-
band holding her head during the
first ten days Of the honeymoon, and
not to have energy or life enough in her

GOSSIP FOR THE LADIES.
BY WILLIAM WINTEH


Because loves sigh is but a sigh,
Doth it the less loves heart disclose?
Because the rose must fade and die,
Is ii the less the lovely rose?
Because black night must shIoud the day,
shall the brave sun no more be gay?
Because chill Autumn frights the birds,
Shall we distrust that Spring will come?
Because sweet words are only words.
Shall love forever more be dumb?
Because our bliss is heeting bliss,
Shall we who love forbear to kiss?
Because those eyes of gentle mirth,
Must sometimes cease nay heart to thrill,
Because the sweetest voice on earth,
Sooner or later, must be still,
Because its idol is unsure,
Shall my strong love the less endure?
All moi let lovers breathe their signs,
And roses bloom, and music sound,
And passion burn on lips and eyes
And pleasures merry world go round;
Let golden sunshine food the sky,
And let me love or let me die!

Fashion Gossip.

For ladies in mourning there are
dresses and wrappers made of the black
and white barred ginghams, and the
English calicoes that have alternate
stripes of gray and black. Knife-plait-
ings are used for trimming, or else the
edges are cut open in long Sits with two
inches of space between, and are then
bound with black binding.
The bonnet shapes are all to be quite
close this year, and very large bows of
watered ribbon, in the AlsaUian style,
are worn on black bonnets; these are
also much enliyened by wings of hum
ming birds set in rows, or hummlng
birds cen brochette;" even Brazilian
beetles are impaled on skewers, and Sc
cured by little gold chains, which may
or may not be attached to their legs.
BRIDES wear tulle wells; but for
spring the floral decorations are diversi-
fed; for youthful bride clematis an d
orange-blossoms, Or lilies of the valley
and clenatis, are mixed; for maturer
brides orange flowers and jessamine and
syringa are combined; the sweet-pea
blossom is also much used, and is made
into fringes for bridal dresses, as well as
lilies Of tht valley, headed by bands of
other flowers.
The old-fashioned French calicoes in
chintz designs are imported by modistes
for making morning dresses and robes
de chambre. These repeat the palm-leaf
and rosebud patterns in dark mingled
coors formerly worn. They will be made
with yokes and pleated bssques to be
worn with belt, and trimmed with
white braid and pearl buttons. The robes
will also have q square yoke and flowing
breadths that are belted or not at plea-
sure.
CANVAS grenadine with small square
meshes is chosen for nice dresses for
mourning, and trimmed with English
Grape. The design is similar to the hand
some dresses worn by ladies in colors.
For instance, there is grenadine basque
made over silk, with a Grape vest and
a coat-tail back. The sleeves have deep
Grape cuffs, from which fall plaitings Of
black crepe lisse; the collar is made to
correspond. The skirt is a flowing demi-
train, trimmed straight down the front
with Grape bands, and a plating of
Grape borders the foot. Down each side
is a broad panel of plain Grape; the
back breadths have no trimming.
