The Spring number of Ehrichs'
Fashion Quarterly more than fulflls
the promise of its predecessors.
Within the compass of its one hund-
red and twenty pages, it sets before
Its readers an absolute complete eplt-
ONE of the fashions of the coming
season in ladies' wearing apparel and
fabrics of every kind and this, not
in the shape of a series of vague gen.
eralities; such as the ordinary fash
ion journal too often contents itself
with, but by means of a succession of
clearly written descriptions of act
ual articles, each accompanied with
an engraving of the thing described,
and all arranged in so orderly and
methodical a manner that any desired
information can be referred to with
out difficulty. Over sixty new de-
signs for ladies and childrens dresses
are illustrated and described, together
with large number of trimmed hats,
light spring wraps, and other articles
for the adornment of the outer wo-
man. A new feature of the Maya
zine is the introduction of fashions in
mems clothing; a large variety of
stylish looking and economical suits
being illustrated and described.
The literary feature of the maya
azine also deserve their need of
praise. Margaret Eytings, Josephine
Pollard, Eben E. Rexford, and other
well-known writers are represented
by tale, sketches, and poems. An in
teresting article OH "Household Dec
oration' is contributed by Mrs. L. V.
Battey of the New York Sun; and
Hope Ledyard's talk from the Easy
Chair will be read with . interests by
mothers, far and near.
Altogether, we think the emphatic
verdict pronounced by every lady
reader on the present number of the
Fashion Quarterly will be: "Worth
its price and ten times more.'
Published by Enrich Bros, Eight
Avenue, New York, at so centsa a
year, or 10 cents copy.

Cigar Ends.

Much is said of the thrifty habits of
the German smokers-thosc who save
the ind of and partially consumed
Cigars in such quantities as to afford
the means of maintenance of a small
school Of orphans in food, clothing
and education. Such is almost as
doubtful a fact as smokers obtaining
one guinea.an ounce for the Cigar-ash
as used in teeth cleaning. According
to the following calculation the con-
sumption and saving of Cigar ends
must be very industriously carried on
abroad. On going into the matter it
is found that it takes, on an average,
no less than 500 Cigar ends to weigh
just one once, or 5000 ends to make
up one pound; and taking one half
hundred weight as being about the
lowest quantity of Tobacco snuff
grinder would care TO make an oper-
alton ON to convert into snuff, there
must be a dccapitation Of the enor-
nous number of 44S,0O0 Cigar tips.
Supposing the cost to be Sd each Ci-
gar, they will amount to 35, 600. Let
us take the return for this outlay the
result of selling one-half hundred
weight of manufactured snuff at say
3s Cd per one pound, is 20 l6s, and
now see if the Cigar ends are worthy
the credit they have enjoyed as char
table object of the Continent. The
realization of the latter sumis with
out any profit in any shape. 1t is well
known the half smoked Cigars are
sought after by our saving walters at
music halls, who in return get l0d
per pound from florists for fumiga-
ting purposes, and that is supposed
to be the best price and use that the
articles are put to.--Tobacco Review.
