A new lace for trimming bonnets is
colored guipure in which great deal
of fine chenille thread is introduced.
An odd Partisan fancy is for Il miniature
chanticleer made of the blue green or
red impion feathers on the body, with
the scarlet ibis for the comb, and some
real cocks plumes for the tail. This is
offered for side ornament for bonnets
and hats, and is said to be as popular in
Paris as turtles, lizards and beetles were
formerly.
The Kitty Bell is modification OF
the old-mshioncd Pamela; it is trimmed
with a wreath of flowers and fastened
with an enormous bow of satin or Sulah
under the chin. Among the new styles
the following models are described: A
dressy poke bonnet of cream-colored
straw is lined with bottle-green velvet.
The trimming consists of two pheasant
wings posed on the right side OF the
hat. On the left is cluster of crimson
flowers yelled with Spanish lace. The
broad strings of Surah show n mixture
of crimson cream color and dark green.
The fashionable bonnets and hats for
fall wear are all taken from English
models, and French pattern hats, which
have been so much in demand III the
United States for several years past, are
entirely ont of vogue. The porcupine
and rough and ready straws, so popular
during the summer season, are super
seeded by large hats and bonnets of ma
nilla straw which are made more dec
omtive with gold, silver and steel bead
work, some OF the crowns being entire
ly covered by elaborate patterns of bead
embroidery The "La Republique' is
an atrocious looking scoop bonnet A
gilt saber adorns one side of the Gro Nn,
and the head of stern visaged eagle
peers from cloud of black lace on the
other
Another style is n large hound hat OF
olive green felt, raised in front and ON
the sides, and Turned down in the back.
The inside of the brim is lined with
fur; string of large beads powdered
with gold and steel dust is twisted
around the crown. On one side Is n
cluster of plumes nodding and waving
in the air. on the other side is II cluster
of rose buds half hidden by a large
bow of olive-green Surah. Other hats
are in Bolerc or Beamesa shape, with
silk pompons, and some in the to,que
shape. A dressy hat for the theater is OF
white beaver or felt, with large rolling
brim. lined with pink Surah, the crown
being encircled by pink, crimson and
white plume fastened Ivy a bow OF satin
Of the various shadings OF tile feath-
erS.
Large gypsy hats are trimmed with
wreaths of berries. fruit and delicate
blossoms, and tied down with long scarfs
Of black Spanish lace, which are wound
gracefully about the throat and then
carried down to the belt, where they are
fastened with berries or blossoms to
match the crown trimming. Black
bonnets are q recognized necessity, and
are trimmed with lace, flowers and Jet
Turbans are to be worn, and the new
shapes are very graceful and becoming.
The most stylish are those made OF
black velvet with the crowns entirely
covered with grebe feathers or ravens
breasts. Then there are the turbans

nSlUFT AND FRET.n

Abemethy, the great Scotch surgeon
whose rough manners We're the scandal
of his profession, used to say that there
were two great killing powers in the
world-St and Fret-he might have
added apathy; for certainly great
many people die from sheer want Of
sufficient energy and will power to keep
them alive. What would kill such peo-
pie, will serve only as an impetus to re-
newed struggle with others. A great
deal might be accomplished in the stug-
Gle with disease and death if only
title common sense were the ordinary
stock in trade of family. But, unfor-
tunately, it is not, and the children OF
the well-to-do classes grow up so unfit
ted to fight against ills, that the only
wonder is that they reach maturity
with any energy at all. Most people
eat too much, it is true, and everybody
lrets too much, that is certain. Still
both stufling and fretting are active and
call into exercise certain organs OF body
and mind if only to initiate them, but it
is the apathetic, limp want of resistance
that is the worst evil modern science
has to contend with. Hundreds OF poor
children die from exposure, but it is
question whether as large proportion
of the little ones Graded in luxury do
not die from simple want OF vitality or
resisting power, and they might as well
do so as grow up with the listless, half
dead members Of society whose highest

SLOW JUSTIFICATION.

The first man who conceived the idea
of using steam for moving carriages on
land was Solomon de Cans, French
man, who in the year l64l, was sent to a
madhouse for pelsisting in his idea
An old letter of that date describes a
visit paid to the Bicetre at Paris, which
was the most celebrated madhouse of
the day, by the Marquis of Worcester.
Among the inmates it mentions was one
who alarmed the visitors by screaming
from behind tho bars of his cell in a
hoarse voice, 81 am not mad / am
not mad l have made discovery
which would enrich any country that
adopted it," "What discovery" asked
our guide. ooh" said the keeper,
something trihing you would never
guess it it is the use of steam, OF boil
ing water" Tolisten to this lunatic, you
would think that with steam you could
navigate ships, move carriages, indeed,
there is no end to the wonders he would
have us believe. lie has even written a
book about itI This book was pub
lished in Paris in 1915. and was called
Les Raisons dcs Forces Mouvantes
avec diverses machines tants utiles que
puissants. The treason in his mad
ness" was never discovered; it took
nearly two centuries to justify him.

WOMEN'S FANCIES.

"Embroiderers for shoes wanted, was
the advertisement which led an inquirer
up long flight of stairs in tall build
ing, through the room that was filed
with shoes to an office, where sal a be-
neyolent faced gentleman, who said;
"Shoes are now embroidered for ladies'.
We have orders for line of cloth-top
shoes embroidered in chenille, and for
low shoes embroidered at the instep.
The embroidered stockings have become
so popular that now embroidery is want
cd on the shoes too. We have an artist
who makes the patterns, and We eX-
pect to turn out some charming bits OF
art embroidery in shoes for next sum
mer's wear. We had nm order recently
for embroidered white slippers Tor
bride to match pair of white silk
stockings with Chantilly lace let in broid-
ereL with floss silk, the design being
pale. blue for get-me-nots and pink roses.
CLOCK stockings are now superseded
by embroidered stockings. We follow
the fashion in stockings, and shoes and
stockings viii next year be sold to
match. Open work is getting popular.
Black silk stockings are made witha
plain stripe, and there are open work
strips with white feet which show
through open work in the shees' There
are now twelve hundred new designs in
silk stockings. and we have to make
shoes to suit the most popular styles.
We make the tops of cloth or leather to
match the color of the stocking, and
then we cmbroider the top to match the
stocking embroidery, so that at glance
the lady seems TO have on Newport slip
pers with embroidered stocking. 1t
will add about S2 pair to shoes to en-
broder them, but we can make them to
