Joy. I have this night satisfactorily
concluded an affair which undertook
unsuccessfully fifteen years ago to-
night. Since then have lived in the
shadow of the great grief in which that
failure enveloped me. Black as the
darkness of the night into which !
stepped when left our mountain watch,
was the sorrow bore with me. Bright
as the light of this luxurious, hospitable
home. and of your beaming faces, is the
radiant Joy bear. Hildegard will be
my wife. Congratulate me, and | will
heartily wish you each what this assures
to me-a happy New Yearl'
On Hildegard' face there was a rest
full happiness expressed, which no mortal
had ever seen there before. The I'M
satisfied expression was gone. And we
united in wishing Harry what |, patient
reader now wish you-A Happy New
Year, GOdeJS Lddy's Book.

Hints About Dresses.

Ladies who make their own dresses
will be glad to know that gathered
founces are again in favor for silks and
velvets, as they are easily made, and
require less material than plaitings. A
single bias gathered tlounce, with two
upright headings of the material
doubled, or else cut in small slender
scallops. is considered sufficient trim
ming for the skirt of any walking cos
tune of velvet or silk; indeed, it is pre-
ferred in this great plainness for velvet
suits, while narrower hounce or soft
puff may be added for silk or satin if
preferred. The tab finish to basques of
cloth, velvet, or cashmere is commend
ed as inexpensive, requiring merely
neat work upon it, and regularity of
shape. The fancy for tucking, that ex
tends even to satin dresses, is welcomed
! by neat needlewomen who have more
leisure than money. For instance, a
black satin Surah that need not cost
more than one dollar a yard can have
each of its flounces (Which are straight
and gathered) trimmed with three or four
narrow tucks above hem; this across
the front, with some short wrinkled
panier drapery above. and longer back
drapery. is very pretty with tabled
basque, or one with the folded surplice
fronts now so much used. There are
also black ridged pushes. with the eff
feet of tucked or fringed fabrics, now
sold very low, which are put on the
lower part of skirt to cover it to the
knees, and above this is draped a pol
onaise of black Sicilienne or of cancels
hair, which may be quite plain. or may
have Spanish guipure lace trimming.
Those who admire the Astrakhan fur
borders, and can not afford the ex-
pense, get a fine quality of the Astra-
khan cloth, and put lengthwise bands
on the pelisse and border on the skirt
with rolled collar and square cuffs; 8
yard of this double-width cloth will mo-
cost more than single yard of border
ing of the fur that it initiates so well.
velvet collar and cuffs, with perhaps az
inserted plastron or vest, is the relic
for plain basques of camel s-hair dress
es, and this is also true of the cloth cos
tunes that are not made by tailors.
Trimmed wooden Jersey basques ar,
also much worn by ladies who object t.
the bare plainness of the real Jersey
For these a wooden Jersey is bought
and opened in front. If dark red Jer
sey is chosen, narrow velvet vest i
inserted, and buttoned by small gil
buttons The Bryon collar of red vel
vet has four or five rows of gilt brai'
on the edge, and there are similar cuffs
Two tabs of velvet are placed below tn
waist in the back, and there may be lit
tie square pockets of velvet on the hips
The hem of the Jersey has leadel
weights to hold it down. and sash
not needed. This is worn with red
black, green, or brown skirts. Q

should be confined to house toilettes

To me no year that might come instead
of the old friend numbered among the dead
Could ever be half so bright
The sun-kissed clouds grew pale and gray,
The bells hung silent in high mid-air,
Waiting to ring the year away
In strains that were ever too glad and gay
For meas listened there.

Oh, lips that utter the same old phrase, u

An American medical student in
Vienna was permitted to take part in an
operation which resulted in much
injury to a born child, and, taking
the matter to heart, he absented himself
for days. This elected some well-meant
comments from the house surgeon, with
a good-natured reflection on his moral
cowardice. The student, greatly irri-
tated, challenged the professor. 1t is
contrary to etiquette for professors and
students to fight duels, so the professor
declined, explaining that nothing often
sive had been meant. The student, who
must be consummate ass, then went
to the American Minister, who sustained
the professor.
