Costume in Nevada,


"Her dress was of highly-wrought
fabric of old rinchbeck gold, frosted
over with Paris green can-spaLgles,
and brocaded with mahogany saw
dust. There was an exquisite over
skirt, shirred with hemped yarn of a
unique pattern, and elegantly caught
up with a costly z~inc-plate ~suspender
buckle.
A wreath of natural shoemaker S
wax hung in ravishing waves from
the waist, while loops of molasses
candy heightened the cauduai appen-
dages of the basque de-coat. The
train was massive and recollete. 1t
was g~orgeously respondent with a
row of richly embroidered shells-de-
oyster, sprinkled with assorted grains
of costly coal-de-ashe. Surmount-
ing all was a rich oriental mantle of
bag de-eordage, which was pinioned
at the right shoulder of the fair
wearer with a shingle-de-nail, on
which was a leviathan carved dames
wrought entirely of rare pieces of
gum de-spruce.
The fair wearer of all this magnif-
cent apparel wore a tin star buried in
a perfect torrent of red-hot coal
black hair, while she glided through
the mazes of the dance like a gazelIe
with it's right arm in sling. When
she brought her pretty little Cinder-
ella slipper down upon the marble
tiles Of the festive halls, the rafters
in the building shook with silvery
laughter, while croekery in the eel
lar, like enchanted fairies, leaped up
and kissed the floor underneath.
When excited and full of enthusiasm,
this lovely Venus opened her mouth,
revealing two massive rows of pearl
that reminded the enchanted behold
er of trains Of whitewashed ears glid-
ing on wings of love through Hoo
sac's magnificent tunnel. Her mu-
steal laugh sent a thrill of delight
across the mass of snrging, worship
ping humanity. like the trickling of
cold milkpnnch down the back Of a
man who has just filed his boots with
chocolate lae-f.rnam.
