A wool suit is the first need for
autumn wear, and there is an endless
variety of fabrics to choose from; cam
els hair comes in numerous grades
and choice colors. The merits of Kay

ionable tints; it is also well adapted
for children's costume as well as for
ladies. Cashmeres also hold an inn

autumn; they are beautifully fine this

of shades. Cloths of all grades are

Next to a wool suit n black silk is a
necessity for early fall year.. Marvel
Gus bargains are advertised in black
silks, and they really at present are
very moderate. Gros grain is more
popular than it has been, plain silks
being more in favor than brocaded
ones. There are however, many diff
ferent kinds of silks used, but none
with the same plain surface. The
satin-faced goods continue popular,
many persons thinking they make a
richer-looking gown.
Toilets made of the light, supple,
wooden fabrics so fashionable are mod
els of elegant draping, and the many
varieties of these materials render har-
mOnious combinations. Draperies of
all descriptions are adopted with these
materials, and bodices are quite as
varied in arrangements as skirts; they
are made to open over plain waistcoats,
over crossed fichus or plaits, over plain
or pulled plastrons, with or without
rovers. Some have points, others have
plated basques, but these are at the
hack only. and always small and mar

TRAINING YOUNG COLTS

An eastern horseman writes: A good
plan adopted by many breeders is to
break in their colts to the halter when
they are about a week old. When this
is the case the colts should be handled
and treated gently. and when the halt
er is placed upon them they should be
attentively dealt with, and not simply
left tied up in a stall, to a post. or even
to a tree in the meadow. In fact,
horse-training to be successful ought to
be commenced early, if we are TO be-
lieve the theories advanced by many
breeders. One of the most valuable
features In a horse. whether the animal
be required for general farm or draught
work, driving, or riding, is a capacity
to walk at a brisk pace. To many per-
sons there is hardly anything so irri-
tating as to be compelled to ride be-
hind or on o horse which, in ascending
an incline. however slight that incline

made of some supple WOODEN fabric.
Young ladies wear this skirt without
any drapery; those who are a little old

lier and a modest puff at the back; but
the whole is as plain and simple as
possible, without braid or ornament of
any description. The corsage is made
like that of a riding-habit, with slight
points front and back; the sleeve is
plain and buttoned at the wrist like

WASHING WOOL.

The yolk in Il healthy fleece is ma
soapy matter, with a strong potash
base, resembling no other animal Sc
cretion; it is, in fact, Il soap. with lore
or less free oil. 1t preserves the elias
ITCHY of the fiber, and should be left in
the wool until it is wanted for anu
featuring use. Manufacturers well
know that secured wool, i'm time, be-
brittle and loses its elasticity,
while unwashed retains all its good
qualities indefinitely. 1t is doubtful if
anybody ever saw Il moth in unwashed
wool. 1t is, as a rule, free from all
vermin. The percentage of yolk in
healthy tlocks of even grade is quite
uniform, but varying in different breeds
from % per cent in the Leicester and
other coarse breeds to from so to IS
per cent in the very finest Saxon, the
bucks always carrying more than the
ewes. The system of washing in cold
water on a sleeps back never results
in q washed fleece fit for the manufac-
turer, but only the eradication of an
unknown and uncertain part of the
yolk. contained in the fleece, which is
thus changed into IN understandable
commodity, to be sold on its uncertain
merits as to s~hrinkage. The name or
designation of washed wool has ceased
to have any charm, and the sooner the
practice of washing is entirely aband-
Oned the better il will be for the sheep,
their owners and the trade generally.

and she was logged as passenger ship
from Manila to Cadiz The Admiral
was alone in his opinion that all was
not right, remarking that the ladies
waved their pocket handkerchiefs un.

and proved to have been a Spanish
ship from Fernando, Veloso River, in
the Mozambique Channel, full OF slaves

delighted pride his meeting with the
flagship of the Cape. and how, seeing
a large man-ofwar bearing down upon
him with the certainty of capture and
no hope to escape should the ships
character be known, he adopted the
clever eXpedicnt, doubtless not for the
first time, of dressing up a number OF
his men in women's attire, a ruse that
was in this instance entirely successful.
