FASHION NOTES.

Terra Gotta shades will be much
worn.
Red is the prevailing color in early
fall goods.
Fanchan and Normandy breakfast
caps are favorites.
Long nlits are the favorite hand wear
at the moment.
Small broken checked suitings and
plaids will be worn.
Women with long, stick-like arms
should not wear tight, long sleeves.
White lace over-colored satin is the
latest relief for black dresses in Lon
don.
Open work embroidery is an effective
trimming on mauve, lemon, pink and
blue Surah.
In England mourning is worn only
one year for the nearest relatives and
Grape but six months.
Terra Gotta in all shades from dark
salmon to deep copper is the favorite
color for early fall cashmeres.
The lawn tennis striped suitings SO
fashionable this season have lent an ef-
feet to the new fall goods.
New plush goods have extremely long
pile, which is cut in irregular depth, to
form the figures of the fabric.
Button, low-quartered OF half boots
will be the leading shoes until the mid
die of September OF first of October.
Plaid, striped and shaded goods will
be combined with plain or self-colored
fabrics in the composition of the earliest
fall dresses.
Heavy satins in rich shades of color,
with stripes of long pile plush or che
mile, will be used for the most expen-
sive dress accessories.
The earliest water color designs of
dresses for fall show no decided depar-
ture from the general makeup OF cos
tunes worn this season.
Plated collarettes of null, plain
white and dotted, lace-edged, embroid-
cred and perfectly plain, are much
worn, with scarf bows to match.
Some of the new silk goods show
moire stripes alternating with stripes of
brocaded or damask flowers and leaves
encroaching on the edges of the moire
stripe.
The special novelty in fchus is the
addition of long ends of wing-like shape
to designs made of null and lace. In
some cases these ends reach nearly to
the knee and are narrow.
Longitudinal stripes in bright colors,
with gold and silver hair line effects,
crossed diagonally with stripes formed
in the weaving Of the fabric, make one
of the features of the new fall goods.
A handsome novelty to be worn with
dressy costume is the pocket sash,
made of black satin de Lyon, and either
tied in bow or simply knotted at the
left side. The broad ends are formed
each into fiat pocket, on which there
is hand painting of poppies, daises
and corn. flowers The edges of the
pockets are trimmed with plated black
thread lace, the design being made to
button over with a lap. Each sash end
is provided with pocket, in one of which
the handkerchief is carried.

Waiting.

Will the slow weeks never gop
Hark /! the curfew ringeth low;
Into twilight soft and gray
Melts at last the weary day
Once again the night is here.
Are you thinking of me, dear?
All day long my heart has heard
Just one softly whispered word;
All day long your name has come
To me through the busy hum
Everywhere in hall and street
You have tarried with me, sweet.
In the faces of the crowd,
In the cries that echo loud,
All throughout the hurrying throngs,
ALI amid the strife of tongues,
Nothing have heard or seen
Save your voice, your face, my queen.
Other women come and go,
Other voices whisper low,
Other eyes grow dim or bright,
Shed or veil their changeful light;
But stand apart, alone,
Waiting still for yoi, my own.
All that waiting. Do you feel,
Darling, as the slow days steal
Silent, one by one away,
How my heart must yearn and pray
For the touch of lips and hand?
no,I;nor 10
In the daily strife and stress
Do you see the foes that press
Close and hard within, without?
All the dread and all the doubt,
All the fears that clasp and cling,
All the bitter questioning?
Fast, though with no clash of swords,
Gather all those phantom hordes
And my soul, as falls the night,
Seems to lose her wonted might,
Shrinks before the dusky crew,
Prays and long and yearns for you.
Must always watch and wait,
Exiled, famished, at your gate?
Will you not be brave and come
Ere the pleading lips be dumb
Ere within the weary eyes
Hopes last glimmer fades and dies +?
All dear heart, be strong, be true
See, a kingdom waits for you
High above all stain or seattle
Floats loves banner, shines loves faith
Enter on your reign serene
Come my own my love my queen

He never came back, acknowledging his

The doctor soon put Araminta's little
brother in perpendicular position, and
that night at the bedside of the little
sufferer, keeping well to the front, I
proposed, was accepted, and the happy
day was fixed. I rode into Araminta's
affections on O mule.
