LATE STYLES.
Excerpts from the Book Most Diligently
Read by Fashionable Women.


Read by Fashionable Women.
Short skirts are very fashionable.
Black grenadine dresses broche with
velvet remain in vogue and rival those
of etamine and lace.
Lace tlounces are worn on grenadine
dresses, the trimmings of the corsage
being also of lace.
The Marquise Catogan style of couture
rs much in favor in Paris. 1t is worn
low in the nape of the neck and formed
of light fluffy loops of hair.
Lace iiounces on grenadine dresses
are very wide, laid flat, and are only
slightly felled, or not at all, and form
the tablier and pouf in the back, some
times panels and side robes.
White mohairs figured with small de
signs in color are among the pretty, in
expensive dress fabrics that make up
taStefully with trimmings and com
binations of velyeteen of the color of
the patterns.
Some Questionable ones, too
wear their dresses long enough to
touch the ground in the back. This is
a graceful fashion for the house, but in
the street it is ineXcusablc, or worse
it is disgusting.
Women with small and pretty feet,
especially the women Of st. Louis and
along the Mississippi River to New Or
leans and Baton Rouge, will rejoice
over the present style Of very short,
coulisse skirts; but the Chicago girls
need not despair, for the English women
are rejecting this style, and are even
trying to introduce the skirt that touches
the pavement in the back for street as
well as house wear.
A pretty combination for dressy

Beaupre yelling and a small quantity of
the same kind of yelling and in stripes

coulisse skirt opening ON both sides
with panels of the stripes for borders

A GLORIOUS WARFARE.

Victory Which Brings BIessedness and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Recitation for
Boys.
Friends: 1t is my pleasant duty to
explain to you the object Of our coming
together and banding ourselves into a
society called The Band of Hope"
First of all, we are volunteers, and they
are always the happiest and readiest
soldiers. One brave, willing recruit is
worth ten pressed men. We do not
wear any uniform, except the uniform
desire to do good. Our bands are not
often of brass, but always of hope
Our music is not particularly martial.
but when we stand to sing in martial
order the melodies are more heartily
and earnestly rendered than those per-
formed at military reviews and sham
fights. The oath of allegiance is our
pledge. We have no regulations about
height or age. Nothing disqualiiies for
service except desertion.
Our warfare is against no man, but
for the benefit OF all men. We fight
the foes of disease and crime, of poverty
and wretchedness. The only arms we
use are the weapons of facts and truth,
and arguments for sobriety, economy,
health and happiness. We neither XII
nor wound any; we only seek to ami
hilate the foes that Stay our countrymen
by thousands and fill our hospitals with
the sick and wounded. We contend for
peace. Our victory brings blessedness
and prosperity as surely as the morning
sunshine banishes the darkness of night.
Is not ours glorious warfare? VIII
You enlist with us to carry it still fur
thcr On?- Christian al Work.

to employ one additional worker for
about every thirty-twO farmers, or more
than 239, 900 workers in the country.
What this means may be inferred from
the fact that the number of operators
in 1880 employed in making agricult.
ural implements was 80, in boots
and shoes, 1871, 967 in carriages and
wagons, 40, 304. For the farmers to
stop drink and tobacco would liberate
money enough to double these indus
tries and still have enough left over to
add half to the present production OF
wooden goods.

Thus we see that this class is the only
one that comes out of the comparison
i'll a solvent condition.
The burden which drink LAYS upon
the third class is even greater than
here shown, owing to the larger num-
Der Of women and children belonging
to it While in the whole country the
proportion of women and children
among wage-earners is %, in trade
and transportation it is only 1.22 but
in professional and personal service it
is 40 or nearly three-fourths of the
whole. 1t follows therefore that if this
class drinks anything like the aggre-
gate we have computed the results of
it must be well nigh totally destructive
to the men who belong to it.
Thus all the considerations together
point to the conclusion that the drink
and tobacco wastes diSarrange eX-
changes, cut off the manufacturers
markets and condemn one-siXth of the
wage-earners of the country to Il condi-
ton of absolute misery, and another
sixth to a condition but little better
through the unfair diversion of their
earnings for buying food and fuel fol

NO MORE TO ME.

Alone and silent / sit in my room,
When the garish light has fed,
And wait to hear, through the gathering
gloom,
The footsteps of the dead.
But no sound hear, and no sight see,
For my love comes back no more to me.
How soft the light of her tender eyes,
As she smiled in her sad. sweet way:
As we stood beneath the glowing skies
AT the close of that blissful day!
That smile, when | close my eyes, | see,
But my love comes back no more to me.
Too fond for kisses or warm embrace,
What could Wc do but stand,
And give and take, with tender grace,
The thrill of Il clasping hand?
That hand no more in mine shall he,
For my love comes back no more to me.
If love and pity go hand in hand,
How quickly they may learn
what grief remains for those who stand,
And wait their loves return.
That grief in my heart must always he,
For my love comes back no more to me.

WlNTERING VEGETABLES.
How to Preserve Vegetables In the Bes
Condition.

How to Preserve Vegetables In the Best
Condition.
Only a few vegetables can be win.
tered outdoors in the North without
protection. Parsnips are among the
exceptional vegetables which the winter
does not destroy, and except for use
while the ground is frozen, may be left
in the soil. Satisfy or vegetable oyster
is of similar nature, but beets, turnips
and carrots will not stand excessive
cold; to retain the fresh, crisp flavor
they should be taken up as late as pos
sible, and placed in q cool cellar or in
pits with earth and straw enough over
them to prevent freezing. The latter is
the method most in vogue with market
gardeners. who usually know how best
to present their vegetables in the finest
condition. Artificial heat in any form
spells the flavor of vegetables gener.
ally. The sweet potato is an exception,
and will rot in a temperature below
fifty degrees, while dryness does not
injure it. Cabbages may be pulled up
roots and all, turned upside down, the
heads packed together in beds six feet
in width and the ground between the
rows thrown over the heads. In ex-
tremely frosty weather they can not be
reached, and enough must be left in the
cold root cellar for winter use. Onions
require a dry barn or stable loft, and
should not be packed more than eight
or ten inches deep, with a foot of straw
over them to keep out frost. In the ex-
IRENE North some fire protection may
be necessary. For family use a string
can be kept hung up in any part of the
cellar. Onions will stand twenty de-
grees OF frost without injury If dry.
Celery is best when taken from the
open ground, but should be taken IN
and placed close together in beds with
earth and litter over all to keep from
freezing. Winter squashos require a
dry place, free from frost. Prairie
