Plain Black Dresses.

Mohair of demi-lustre. tamise cloth.
aibatross cloth and black flannel are
used for plain dresses. These fabrics
cost from fifty cents to 81 yard double
width. The mohairs, alpacas and
brilliantines have never been given up
by English women for useful mourning
dresses, as their smooth surface sheds
dust and is not injured by moisture.
The tailor styles so popular for winter
dresses are repeated in these service
able fabrics, and such dress may be
worn in the house throughout the au-
tumn and winter. Tucked and pleated
waists that may be worn with or with
out belt are especially liked for fam
nels and mohairs. One pretty way to
make these is to let the fronts lap
plainly for about three inches, button
ing on the left side with small buttons
and holes, and have corresponding
row of buttons on the right side; then
just beyond the buttons have three or
four small tucks third of an inch wide,
and repeat the tucks down the middle
form of the back; these tucks can be
overlapped at the waist line to taper
nicely with the lining. and thus belt
is not needed, though it may be aided
If liked.-Hdrper Bazaar.

You see by the last example the
five-carat stone, which would be worth,
according to Tavernier's formula,
taking the carat standard at 800,
100 X X 5=S2, 500, is now only listed
between Sl,3O0 and Sl.40O."
What is the price of tlawed and of.
colored stones?"
THAT is rather hard conundrum to
answer. There are so many gradua-
tons that each large parcel is taken on
its merits and disposed of at special
price. If we have time to sort them
properly and can strike the right Gus
toners we can often make much larger
profits on these goods than on the finer
varieties But it's risky business. as
after large shipment from Africa they
go down with a rush. have sold stuff
as low as $3.50 carat and up to Si5.
Large stones, from four to ten carats,
always fetch fair price, as there is a
a class of people about who will buy a
big diamond even if it looks like a fragg
ment of soda-water bottle. All they
want is to wear a large genuine dia-
mond; the quality is quite matter Of
Indifference to them.'
WHO are the largest buyers of this
class of goods?"
1--WE generally sell ours to pawnbrok-
ers and small dealers. who have them
set in handsome mount:ngs. either alone
or in combination with fancy stones. for
gamblers or the sporting trade. or
where there is large parcel of almost
uniform size, say from one-quarter to
three-quarter carat, we sell them to
settlers, who mount them in common
gold in snowy manner. sometimes a
gross or more of one pattern, and they
are distributed broadcast throughout
the country and worked off at holiday
times. There is large profit in these
goods; they average from $50 to zoe
per cent. - Chicago Tribune.

SELLING FOR PROFIT.
The Hebrew Clothing Gentleman Who "
Cured of Selling Goods Below Cost.

The Hebrew Clothing Gentleman Who was
Cured of Selling Goods Below Cost.
There is . Hebrew dealer in clothing
in Bloomington who has recently been
cured Of selling goods for less than
cost. During the very hot weather he
was visited by Wallace Backward, who
wished to buy seersucker coat and
vest.
..Dere wash youst der ardicle you wash
need" said Moses, ..und he wash so
sheap like dirt
'.How much are they worth?" asked
Backward.
..Vell. I tole you dot" Moses replied,
speaking very confidentially, He vas
wort five tollar-"
Great horned spoon!" snorted Black
wart, Il can buy the same goods at a
half dozen places for three dollars
"Vell, you see wash not tole you all
apoud dot. He vas wort five tollar. but
l wash sold him NIT you NIT thri tollar.
Dot was less than he wash cosht NIT der
wholesale.
so you will lose money on it, if buy
it?" asked Backward
Yah, dot wash how vas!" Moses re-
piled.
"Well. then, will buy one around at
Spreckers place"
IVY you do dot?" asked Moses. great
ly amazed.
.'Well. Moses. l am warm friend of
yours and don't want to see you lose
money. | will go around to Spreckel's and
buy a coat and vest from him. l don t
like him very well, and here is chance
to get even," and Backward was gone
before Moses caught his breath. The
Hebrew clothier would not offer Gus
toner anything at figure pretending
to be less than cost now for forty-threc
cents cash in hand and promise of a
life interest in the land that is fairer
than day. He thinks the public has
penetrated the gauzy swindle he has
practiced so long and successfully

Flax.

A remarkable instance of the waste
of a valuable product is afforded by the
fact that out of s.. .32O tons of flax fibre
grown last year in the United States
only 500 tons were utilized for manu-.
facture. At the same time 5000 tons
of fibre are imported yearly. This
waste, no doubt. occurs because farm
ers have given more attention to grow
ing seed than to the fibre. Seed and
fibre cannot be grown together. Fol
seed. thin sowing and stout stalks are
required, and this produces coarse fibre;
for fine fibre. thick sowing and slender
stalks with few side shoots are desired:
moreover. for the fine silky fibre the
stalks are cut before the seed is ripe.
The ripe stalks. however. are exceed
ingly valuable for twine. but unfortu.
nately this fibre is driven out of use by
q substitute made out of paper.-MsY
