outline, so that they have been able to
roof house in wood according TO the
original design. The poor people lived
by themselves in some uncovered por-
ton or else all the people were wealthy.
The houses are all built with the same
luxurious taste. In Pompeii, as in Rome
and other ancient cities the dead were
buried outside of the city walls on the
highway. Some of the tombs have
been partially excayated Many of the
monuments are furnished with seats
and on the walls are urns holding the
ashes of the dead.
The villa of Diomedes near the
tombs is interesting, because in its eel
lar seventeen bodies of women and chill
dren We're found. They had evidently
provided themselves with food, and in
tended to stay there during the erup-
ton, but the fine hot ashes had sought
them out, and they met the fate of
others. Centuries after their clothing
was found over their faces. Themaster
of the house was found with his jewel
box IN his hand near the garden gate
Some had attempted to escape in car
riages and their bodies were found in
them. Plaster of paris being poured
into these cavities the figures were pre-
served. One poor girl.had thrown her
self upon the ground with her face in
her hands. A woman had little babe
pressed to her breast, and her face was
full of despair. Thus the terrible death
struggles of eighteen centuries ago are
laid bare to the gaze OF to-day

excavation was In progress. One of
cur pleasures was TO watch the work
men. How carefully they labored, for
a harsh blow might break some statu-
airy. Rounded columns were left I'M
covered in places. Bits of fresco were
peeping out at sunlight which was the
hrst that touched them for eighteen
hundred years; and ali the time in and
out the ruins, up and down like swarms
of ants in the sunshine, ran the bare
foot boys with their baskets bearing
scoria and ashes, TO the railway which
led out into the country. Sharp-eyed
watchmen were looking after the work
to see that nothing of value was taken.
The speaker closed her budget of re-
by graphic and taking
description of a visit to Vesuvius. in
which the route and incidents of the
journey was SO graphically laid before
her hearers that the whole scene from
the start to the finish, seemed clear
before them. This closed the evening"
very pleasant entertainment.

Free Passes in New Hampshire.
Concord Monitor.

Concord Monitor.
There is one member of the Legislature
who places no faith in the agitation over free
passes. His home is way up in the northern
part of the State, and the car-fare to Concord
represents the combined income from his po-
tato patch and piggery for a whole season.
For this reason his visits to the capital have
been few and far between hitherto, but when
his fellow townsmen honored him with an
election as representative, visions of tri-week-
ly journeys to and from the Mecca of all up
country politicians were constantly before
his eyes. By day he talked about it, and at
night he dreamed of it. The hired man was
given to understand that he should be up
in the middle of the week centrally" and
the "old LADY, was told mot to worry about
the marketing cause he could
do it Saturdays" To-day he is
a sadder, but wiser man. He struck
the first snag when the conductor insisted on
his paying his fare before he had been in the
cars three minutes. Then he went to the
superintendent of the road and informed
him that he had called to get his pass. Here
disappointment again awaited him, for said
officer had not received his instructions at
that time. And so he had to pay his fare all
the way just as common folks do. Thurs
day he sat down and wrote his wife a long
letter in which he enclosed instructions to the
hired man about shearing the sheep and cut
ting the hay, and getting up the wood next
winter in case he should not get home by
that time. Instead of doing the marketing
Saturdays he will sit around on the State
house steps and wonder how long it will be
before he can vote agin them railroads that
are goin' to ruin the country"

The Man Who Smiles.

Detroit Free Press.
The hour for closing having arrived, the
triangle was struck, the glees club sang an
original chant by Judge Cadaver, and Broth
er Gardner arose and said:
"Bewar of de man who wars a habitual
smile. A face which am allus on de grin am
as much to be feared as de one which allus
carries a frown. AM too, as you pass ober

and some are narrow gauge, Some run par

and follow what seem to others needless,
roundabout ways. But all lead to the Celes-

CURRENT FASHION NOTES.

Dotted and tambour muslins worn over
color, with yards of lace and ribbons for
trimming, are among the prettiest of toilets
for the seaside.
Gold basket-straw bonnets, trimmed with
hame-colored lace and fancy silver straws and
velvet interminged, are the newest fancies
in French millinery.
When there are two or three sets of narrow
ribbon strings to bonnets. each set should
be tied separately in order to make loose
looking loops, and keep them from mating
together.
Long silk gloves that are worn out at the
tips OF the fingers may be made into stylish
mltts by cutting off the fingers entirely, and
also half OF the thumb. The top is then
hemmed neatly, or else button-hole stitched
around.
Gauze Balbriggan stockings of very light
quality are worn inside colored silk stockings
to protect the skin when the color rubs of, to
prevent the unpleasant "creepy" feeling, and
also 10 keep the fine stockings from being
stained by perspiration.
There is no prettier of less expensive finish
to kilt-pleatings than group of tucks near
the foot, and these are now used alike on
silk and wool dresses such as foulards, alba
tross cloth, etc, and even on the better
changeable silks and ottomans
Some of the new apron overskirts on
French dresses are made entirely without
gores the five breadths of which they are
composed being straight-not sloped-andl
they are thus es full at the top as at the bot
tom, in order to give the appearance of large
hips and voluminous draperies.
For simple black or colored grenadine the
best choice are those with canvas square
meshes, the armure patterns, or the sewing
silk grenadines. These are most effective
when made up with lustrous satin, which
appears only as Innings and frills at the foot
The inexpensive satin surahs are liked for
this purpose, as they wear we'll and are Of
light weight,
The favorite basque for wash dresses imi-
tates the jersey and has but three seams, the
French back and wide front, fitted by two
darts, one of which comes we'll under the
arm. New York modistes are making morn
ing dresses of gray linen, with such basques,
long and perfectly plain, with tight sleeves
over which the long jersey gloves are drawn
almost to the elbow. The apron overskirt is
sim ply draped, and the underskirt has a sim
gle deep hounce for trimming.
Bodices are of all sorts, aesthetic, waists
much shirred, plain Jersey basques, long
polonaises fully draped pointed eorsages,
jockey basQues, round Josephine waists,
Sarah Bernhard5 blouses, and so on-you
may take your own choice, and suit your
own style among the variety, or the mistake
rests on your own head. As to the drapery,
no two dresses are exactly alike. excepting
those turned out at the factories by the
dozen. 1t is impossible to describe them,
since each skirt is different, fashionable
dress-makers draping each costume on the
wearer, if possible, or, falling that, on a
model the same size.

Bustles and shoulder-straps.

Harper's Bazaar.
The most fashionable. modistes depend
principally on the drapery of Che dress itself
for giving the very large tournures which
are now in vogue There are, however, many
who do not understand arranging these in
tricate draperies and there are flat figures
that need a small hustle in addition to any
dress, no matter how full. For these slight
figures the newest bustles are made of eight
narrow frills OF barred muslin or hair-cloth
very fully pleated on V-shaped foundation
piece of the same muslin, 5that is curved into
shape by strings tied across it-not by the
Objectionable bones or steel hoops. If any,
thing more is needed, one or two steels are
put in castings across the back breadths
of the dress skirt. There is also what is
called hustle skirt combining a
tournure and petticoat in one, and this
when trimmed across the foot with
fiounces is worn by stout ladies' and made to
serve as the only skirt. This has some hoops
across the back that stop on the Sides and
there are one or two muslin 1ouuces around
the feet; tapes attached to the sides are tied
underneath the hoops to give them the de-
sired curve. Another skirt that gives good
size, dispenses with hoops, and may be easily
made at home and laundried there at small
cost, is also a hustle skirt made of corded
muslin. The muslin with the cords in
stripes will do very we'll. These skirts are
about two yards wide and an eighth in width
at the foot, with the front and side cores
slightly sloped to the top, and the back
breadth sloped up the middle, thus cutting
it in two pieces to make a shapely founda-
ton for fiounces that are placed across it.
There are five of these founces that cover it
from few inches below the belt to the foot,
and the lowest founce goes around the
skirt. These gathered founces are very full,
and, after being stiffly starched. they are
worn trough dried"-that is, without ironing.
Instead of straight belt they have French
waistband shaped to a point in front, and
made quite large, with a drawing-striDg il.
the top.
Shoulder-straps similar to gentlemen's sus-
penders are furnished to hold up heavily
trimmed dress-skirts and keep them in their
proper place just below the waist line These
may be merely elastic ribbons sewed perma-
nently to the skirt back, to be passed over
the shoulders and hooked or buttoned to the
belt in front. There are also separate sus-
penders that may be attached to any dress
by the hooks that finish each end. These
straps transfer the weight of the dress from
the hips to the shoulders, and the wearer
must decide for herself where she can best
endure this weight.

Evening Costumes.

New York Evening Post.
A glance at a throng of ladies at any FASH
ionable evening party will show how very
largely rich colored jackets are still worn
over skirts of lace tule yelling, and other
light fabrics. The skirts are invariably short
when worn with these jackets, and are also
very bouf1ant. The most approved shape
for the spencer is that known as the
Newmarket, but unlike the Newmarket
proper, it is cut with elbow sleeves, and
usually fashioned heart-shape in the neck. i
Embossed velvet, plain Lyons velvet heavy
satin brocade, or rich Oriental embossed
materials are all appropriate. handsome
imported toilet of this kind has short skirt
made of white lace over primrose faiHe-
Four hounces of the lace completely cover
the skirt. and above this are draped Cleo
patra' paniers of brocaded net, edged with a
deep lace ruffie, headed by a wide band of
white marabout. To be worn over this skirt
is Newmarket of magnificent brocade with
ground of primrose satin, on which are
raised velvet roses of a pale pink hue, and
of natural size. The elbow-sleeves and
square opening in the neck are adorned with
ruffles of lace matching those upon the
skirt, and at the left side of the opening Of
the corsage is set a large bouquet of blush
roses and daffodils.
