Manhattan /" In Chicago Journal
Mr.. Vanderbilt was passing o group of
brokers one afternoon, whom one Of them
asked him II his horses were here yet. "No,"
he said; "they are not here-rll have good
team here tomorrow. I'm lonely without
them" He passed on, and the broker turned
to his friends and said: II rode with him

FASHIONlETS.

The gold jewelry worn by ladies nowadays
owes its popularity to the fact OF its being
IN art production.
Queen Victoria is addressed by her house
hold and members Of the aristocracy as
simply ''ma'am."
Chamois leather gloves are exceedingly
popular. They are useful in warding Off
TAM and durable, as little ammonia water
will cleanse them effectively. They must
be washed and dried upon the hands, or
they will shrink.
A very pretty wall ornament may be
made by taking three fans, with picture,
and bright colors upon them, spreading
them out and tacsing them upon the wall
with their centers together They will then
form a circle. Where the centers come to-
gether bow of ribbon or other device may
be fastened to conceal the ends.

Rain. Thunder and Lightning.

An advanced thinker has a very fine
theory as TO the cause Of the above pie
nomena. Electricity explains all Briefly:
Hydrogen is the lightest Of all known gases
1t must therefore constitute the top layer of
our atmosphere. Hydrogen is being con-
tinually generated by decomposition, and is
constantly passing up through the atmos-
phere. The union OF hydrogen AMI oxygen
produces an explosion, Of which the result
is water. Electrical disturbance produced
by the friction of the earth's revolution or
otherwise, causes explosion between the
layers Of hydrogen and oxygen, and their
union and descent as hail, rain, or snow

1t has been long time since laiies have de-
sired q neck pin with earrings to match, but
the beautiful short pins Of irregular forms,
so fashionable Of late, appear to have created
adisposition for earrings that harmonize in
pattern or finish. Thess sets, it must be
understood, are as unlike the prosaic and
clumsy brooch and earrings of twenty years
ago a. arc the bracelets to-day worn unlike
the broad, massive styles Of old times. Oc-
casionally ball earrings and the ball worn at

Winter Wraph

Wrappinys this winter will be either very
long or very sbort-ro intermediate lengths.
The former will be worn about on foot, the
latter for dress occasions. But between
now and that distant day when protection
against cold will be needed, for the first cool
autumn days numbers Of small mantles Of
various shapes will be worm Those made
with plastrons or vests were SO well re-
ceived that almost all the new small wraps
in pelerine or short mantle shapes are made
with plastron at the front that is repeated
at the back, unless a hood is placed on the
back instead. Many short jackets Of all
kinds are in preparation for the winter,

Fashionable Female Employment.

The fashionable amusement this season Is
to be knitting silk stockings-men's half
hose, girls. The days Of macrame laces are
in the past The crazy quilt has fulfilled its
mission and gone; but knittins-beautiful,
useful and gracious employmen.-is just tho
toniest thing out. l. has a practical side
which appeals to the grosser instincts Of
men. Hand-knittsd stockings are the very
acme Of elegance. Neither the Prince Of
Wales nor yet Barry Wall can have any
thing more truly refined and dainty than
hand-knit stockings. But they cost from
"a to $6 pair. The raw material, however,
for pair only costs 81, and IL the charming
fingers Of lovely woman supply the IS %
worth Of labor, they are only that much
