the new fall hats.
New MORE ribbons are brought out
in shaded effects.
Derbies and English turbans never
20 out of fashion.
Wooden dresses are most tasteful
when made very plain.
The mousquetaire glove remains
the favorite Of fashion.
Turkey-red is the fashionable color
for velvet dress b0nnets.
Stripes are very little used and
plaids are only in favor for skirts Of
wool dresses.
Thick repped silk or ribbed velvet
is used for the wide collars of chem
isettes and fchus of tulle, silk, null
and Aurillac lace.
Brocades are by no means abandoned
for dinner dresses, but they now form
the draperies and sleeves with plain
satin for the basque and train.
Black mull-dotted and scalloped with
red embroidery is a stylish novelty for
gypsy kerchiefs that are worn pointed
in front and back on the shoulders.
Ivory or cream white lace Of large
figures, plated against crimped organ
die muslin in two full ruttles, is a new
frilling for the neck and sleeves of
dresses.
Street toilets are made mostly of
cloth, tweed, cashmere and the like.
The two models on which a variety of
changes are rung are on the basque
and polonaise.
For married ladies are the rich and
costly brocades, satins and Ottoman
silks. For young ladies white wool
fabrics handsomely ornamented with
lace and embroideries will be fashion
able.
Pockets of lace and escalier plush
are made in triangular form and sus-
pended from the waist by ribbon loops !;
they are worn with evening dresses,
and the plush matches the color of the
dress.
All sorts of embroideries are in de-
mand. A favorite garniture on costly
fabrics is silk embroidery associated
with velvet and plush applique. Chi
nese embroideries are popular, so are
embroideries in which gold and silver
threads mingle with silk ones.

Poor little girl! She had tortured
herself so much in this day or two of

burning with shame for the hot drops
that rained over them.
"Why Zoe! What have l said or

"No;" and she choked back a sob
and dried her eyes.
"What then? Zoe, 1 came to thank
you for all you did for me, and | don't

lie looked at her doubtfully, uncer-

eyelids and renewed accession OF color
settled the question.
Bending down he elapsed his unin-

her mouth such kisses as neither she

Local Politics.

Mr.. Hayes gives notice that county conven-
tion Of the Greenbaokers will be hold ut Wal
halla on the 10th day Of September next for
Che purpose Of nominating ticket for county
officers, SO. We had hoped that this masquer-
aiding before the public would cease, but it
seems that in this respect we are mistaken.
Mr. Blodgett also gives notice that The simon.
pure Republicans will hold county convention
on tho 9th Of September for the purpose Of
appointing delegates 10 the State and Congress
slonal Conventions Of that party. Mr.. Blodgett
is an officer Of the Government and We suppose
this command Of his will bo responded to by
''de party"
If these announcements amount to anything
We may yet have lively time in Oconeo before
the election is over. The Democrats however,
arc always ready for an emergency Of this kind
and con be relied on for tho usual majority.
