EnslIiOn NnteS.

New millinery goods are very bright
with color and metallic effects.
Some Of the new goods have palm
leaf designs six inches or more in
length.
White muslin dresses have the
skirts covered with wide flounces of
embroidery.
Gloves Of silk and Lisle thread come
In all lengths and colors to match the
new goods
The new black grenadines show
Spanish lace effects in the designs on
guipure grounds.
PlaidS in subdued c0lors are made
for travelling dresses or for morning
wear in the house.
A quaint freak Of fashion is to fas-
ten velvet standing collars on the left
side with a bow of ribbon. Bullion or
gilt soutache trim, these velvet collars,
and a figured lace fri edges them at
the Top.
Dress mItles for married ladies are
still Of the visite shape, and will be
worn for the spring and summer of
rich hrocaded silk, trimmed with black
lace, beading, embroidery and jetted
pass menterie.
The handsomest velvet costumes
have plain velvet for the la que, the
front and back draparies Of the skirt
and the sleeves, while the sile panels
covering the whole side breadths are of
the richest brocaled velvet.
Cross-barred muslin. striped dimity
and nansook with twilled stripes are
used for the White aprons that are now
made long enough to almost entirely
conceal the colored Dire ,sts worn by
small girls. The low-necked full
French shape is the favorite for these
aprons, because of its simple pattern,
with strd ght fulIness, to viii n band
of edging IS attached at the top, and
armholes are cut and merely trimmed
around, or else little cap-sleeyes are
added. These brighten up the dark
flannel and cashmere dresses that lit

Tie Bad Boy ON E1rIY Rising.

Wen, that is a picnic Pa said
he wanted breakfast earlier than we
had been in the habit Of having it, and
he said that might SEE to it that the
house was awake early enough. The
other night awoke with the awfulest
pain yOu ever heard of. 1t was the

and | thought | would call the hired
girls, and they got up and got break
fast to going, and then | raped on
pas and mas door and told them the
breakfast was getting cold, and they
got up and came down. We eat
breakfast by gaslight, and pa yawned
and said it made a man feel good to
GIT up and get ready for work be-
fore daylight, the way he used to on
he farm, and ma she yawned and
agreed with pa, cause she has to, or
have a row. After breakfast we sat
around for an hour, and pa said it was
a long time getting daylight, and
bimeby pa looked at his watch. When
he began to pull out his watch | lit
out and hid in the store-room, and
pretty soon l heard pa and ma come
upstairs and go to bed and then the
hired girls they went to bed, and when
it was all still and the pain had stopped
inside of my clothes, | went to bed
and looked to see what time it was
and it was , o'clock in the morning
We got dinner at o'clock in the
morning, and pa said he guessed he
would call up the house after this, SO

on account of that bottle of picked
oysters you gave me. My chum saws
he had collie, too, but he didn't call I'm
his folks. 1t was all he could do get
up hisself. Why don't you sometimes

lavish, a saloon-keeper, of Manayunk, were
matched sometime ago to "purr' for $3.50
side. Purring is known among sporting men
as scientific shin-kicking, ana the contestant
who is most agile and able to stand punish
ment wins. The battle was fought shortly
after midnight Thursday night in Camden, N .
j., and won by McWilliams In the twenty
third round. The men were bare-legged from
knee to ankle, and each wore number seven
brogans. Both were very much exhausted
after an hours kicking. lavish wanted
TO quit, but his friends insisted that
he should go on. McWilliams' shins We're
badly cut and bruised, but they were nothing
when compared TO Tavlshs. The next four
rounds McWilliams went as he liked, and
every time he kicked he inflicted an ugly cut
or bruise. In the twenty.second round
Tavish's seconds could not stop the flow Of
blood They wanted 10 apply bandages, but
were not allowed. McWllllams kicked lavish
Ave times in the twenty-thlrd round, and then
tho latter dropped Ikea log and refused 10 go
on. His legs, from knee 20 ankle, were covered
with cuts and as raw as q beersteak, Tavlsh's
legs were washed in appleIack, and he was
driven TO the ferry. Before the purrers
reached Philadelphia their legs were swelled
out OF all proportion. Taylsh is In bed In n
well-known sporting house, and McWilliams
