the newest over-tuniques are less fiat on
the hips. A grave prophecy assures us
that panniers will be worn down the
sides. rather think vertugadins are
meant. those hard holsters worn by
Flemish ladies. which grew to such pro
portions that Eelasquez has painted la
dies with their elbows rounded out to

that something in this line IS being elab-
ora.ed
MISCELLANEOUS FASHIONS.
In neckwear the "fashion scarf is the
newest, as it crosses very high IN order to
show the handsome scarf pins with the
high cut coats and vests. These are in
troduced in the plainiand figured satins in
the new shades of garnet. Garnet
background with white dots are effective.
A very "nobby" style is to have the neck
tie and handkerchief match the color of
the socks also. For instance, a cardinal
necktie, handkerchief and socks, with a
handsome SCoium bia" suit, is considered
''high toned Plaid scarts are also
worn, and some OF them are very effective.
In the matter of gloves, novelties in
dark shades for street wear and ligh:
shades for evening are found in the Har-
ris' seamless and Victoria glove. Heavy
embroidered stitchings, same shade as
the kid, are still popular; and although
they are shown in one Luton the two
button is really considered the most ele-
CANT.
The prejudice against American under
wear is now overcome and the domestic
goods are sought after, and are far hand
somer than those OF English nanufac
ture. The Hindurandum sets are the
newest style in underwear, the yarn be-
ing shaded in the dye, and in weaving
the colors fall at random. These are ex-
ceedingly pretty. Socks are made to
match. Handsome suits of grayish
mixture, with scarlet trimmings, are
known as Scotch wool underwear, but are
domestic. These also lave hosiery to
match
Standing collars take the lead in point
OF fashion, but in this matter gentlemen
should consult their own style A person
with a short neck and high shoulders
looks awkward with his head sunk into a
standing collar. and for such pretty
shapes in ''turnd downs" are shown. Tall
gentlemen with long necks should always
wear the standing collar. TIE newest
and most stylish make in gentlemen s
umbrellas are finished with the clock
tips" which does away with the sewing
down OF the covers.

Why must we, then, be sad
When Nature is SO glad?
Not hall can utterance ell her joy unfold,
Though she runs DER and DER
The strings tied long before.

Not for our sakes arrayed
Though we would fain persuade
Our foolish hearts that she, i'll servant guise,

All, no! Though in broad glee
She laughs where all can see
in leagues of dandelions all dewy wet,
All to herself she smiles
In far off ocean isles,
And in dim hooks in sky blue violet.
And though she dances still
Along the sheer brown hill
y In scarlet glow Of swinging columbne,
In gentian she smiles slow,
As happy maid might go,
Who sings, II love him, and his heart is

She wants no added bliss
No praise for this, or this;
Simply she is so glad she can not rest,
But still must evcrmore
In every way outpOur
The exceeding bliss that stirs within her
breast.
No care for us has she;
And we, alas! and we
Can look but sadly at her innocent play;
Shut out from Paradise,
We see with other eyes:
The flaming sword has rent all wells away
Is there then for us two
No life forever new?
Or is that life new but in lying care,
Till on His far-off throne
Our God must hear alone
One cry OF pain uprising everywhere,
Yet had it better been
We still had staid within,
Nor tasted fruit that lels us not forget?

A FAREWELL.

Farewell, days and months and years;
Farewell, thoughts and hopes and fears
Farewell, old delight and woe;
Farewell, self of long ago!
In the old familiar place
Time sped on at slower pace
Past recall indeed you lie,
Days and months and years gone by,
Now the old familiar door
Shuts us out forevermore!
Farewell, house-no more our home,
Others in the years to come,
Hither homeWard will return
On the hearth their fires will burn;
Children that we do not know
Gather round the Dlithesome glow;
Other feet will tread the stair,
Other guests be welcomed there.
We, whose home it was before,
Shall be strangers eyermore!
May be, in the years to come,
Past the house our feet may roam
Over all subtle change
Will have stolen and made it strange,
And the house we leave to-day
Will have vanished quite away.
In this houses Joy and care
We shall have no lot nor share;
And our HE herein will seem
Like half forgotten dream,
We shall be as ghosts, that come
Lingering round their ancient home,
II our feet pass eyermore
Near the old familiar door.
Farewell, days and months and years,
Farewell, buried hopes and fears.
Whereso'er our footsteps stray,
Whether long or brief our stay,
Whatsoever good we find,
Many graves we leave behind.
So farewell, old Joy and pain,
We shall never know again!
Farewell, all things that we leave!
Surely life and warmth must claaYe
10 the house when we are gone.
Can it empty seem, and lone,
When the echoes OF the years,
Hopes and joys, and griefs and fears,
Scarce have died from roof and WALL.
Surely ghostly steps will fall
On the bare dismantied floors,
Gliding in at open doors,
Fitting up and down the stair,
Will not shadows wander there
Shades more vague than shadows are,
Or than ghosts that break deaths bar!
Sure our wraith's, when we are gone,
Oft will haunt the chambers lone
Come to seek (ah, meier to find)
All the years we leave behind.
Farewell, house, foreyerlnore!
Farewell, old familiar door!
Farewell, home-yet no, not So
Home goes with US where we go!

Cultivate One Talent.

One talent, well cultivated, tleepencd and
enlarged. is worth hundred shallow fac
ulties. The first law of success az this day,
when so many things are clamorng for
attention. is concentration to bend I'll the
energies to one point, and to 60 directly
to that point, looking neither to the right
nor to the left. 1t has been justly said that
a great deal of tie wisdom of Il man in this
century is shown in leaving things I'M
known; and 4 great deal of his practical
sense in leaving things undone. The day
OF universal scholars is past. Life is short,
and art is long. The range of human
knowledge has increased so enormously
that no brain can grapple with it; and the
man who would know one thing well
must have the courage to be ignorant of a
thousand other things, however attractive
or inviting. As with knowledge, SO with
work. The man who would get along
must single out his speciality, and into
that must pour the whole stream of his
actiyity-all the energies OF his hand, eye
tongue, heart and brain. Broad culture.
many-sidedness, are beautiful things to
contemplate; but it is the narrow-edget!
men--the men of single and intense pur-
pose, who steel their souls against all
things else-tEat accomplish the hard
work of this world, and who are every
where in demand when hard work is to be
done
