Jaunty GyerSkirts.

-
While many of the costumes are made
in two pieces, skirt and corsage, there
are others with most graceful or jaunty
overskirts. The appearance of height
can be given to petite figures by having
the fullness or drapery below the hips.
An exceedingly pretty overskirt, to
wear with an underskirt of plush or
velvet, consists of five points of bro
cade arranged from the waist-line. one
overlapping the other, each being
slightly gathered half way up and fin
ished ut the end with q jeweled tassel.
Another conceit shows open front,
embroidered side aprons. with large
loops on one outside finished with
fringe, while on the other side are per-
pendicular plajtings ending in a fringe
edged tassel; the back is full and slight
" draped. Quite as elegant is an over
skirt with two deep side points of rich
brocade, with a still longer point in the
back. Over this skirt, in front. falls II
round pointed apron of soft. clinging
material, which is draped over the sides
and is looped full in the back.
A decided novelty has full drapery in
the back finished with fringe or tiny
knife-plaitings, while in front, about an
eighth of n yard below the waist-line.
the garment is shirred and closed; be-
low this the skirt front opens, the half
being draped over either side. with the
ends caught to the back with bows after
the manner of window curtains.
An effective overskirt has the front
slightly full in the center of the right
side. while the left is plain, the lower
edge being upturned to form a pointed
revers. of either plain or brocaded vel
vet. The sides are cut in separate
pieces and frilled in. the lower portions
edged with brocade; the back is cut
long and draped in the center in points,
leaving, however. n deep point finished
with brocade at the bottom.
Large and small bows, cords and
taSselS, laces. fringes and beaded trim
mings enter largely into the combina-
tions of costumes this spring, and ley
before have garments been more care
lessly graceful. The sleeves are losing
their stiff, outlines and are growing
more expansive at top and above wrist,
and it is with q sense of relief that
one can feel that the consumption con-
traction of bust and shoulders, last
years craze, is entirely obsolete and
free circulation of the blood and per-
feet ease of movement is demanded OF
her votaries by Queen Fashion -Phila-

A SHORT CROP or SWEET POTATOES.

A member of the firm of II. +. Cochran 81 Co. said
to TRIBUNE reporter recently that sweet potatoes
would not bo nearly plenty this year as last. In
Virginia, around Norfolk he said. there would be
only half crop, account of the dry weather and
the small area of ground planted In South Jersey
along the Delaware River where most of the pota-
toes received by the firm grown. the drouth has
reduced the crop considerably. Still, rs the New
jersey sweets" are later than the Virgnas they
may yet receive some benefit from rains The quail
poorer on account Of the dry weather The
south Jersey sweets" are always sold AZ
Delawarcs, and usually bring about fifty
centsa barrel more than Virgmas The Virgnas
are oileh or tully IN good quality, and sometimes
raised in Delaware. The crop began arriving in
market about August l, the Norfolks coming by
schooners and the Norfolk steamers, the Delawarcs
ny BY steamer rom Lewes, and the Jerseys by tho
are the heaviest months in the the trade.
Sweet potatoes are also raised IN Northern New
Jersey anu IN the vicinity Of Long Branch. but
usually oI INFERIOR quality. South Jerseys and
barrel. Norfolk sweets " brought $3 a barrel.
These potatoes need to be kept III an even tcmpcra
lure TO insure their keeping WELL The process
called klin-drylng" is usually only placing the
tubers IN dry, cool atmosphere and "a fire is not re-
CURED except in cold weath r.

representative oil the firm said that the crop would

especlally IN western Virginia and around Rich
mond. On the East Sh re the yield was fair and
.he tnoers were OF good size and good cooking
qualities The tubcrs are usually shipped In cloth
headed barrels with holes cut in the slaves to
secure ventilation. TIE wholesale deaers frequently
sell several hundred barrels in day.
