A WOMAN'S BARGAIN.

She Who Hesitates Is Not Always Lost
A Not Obscure Moral.
Last Christmas one of our rich mems
wives saw vase in shop which delighted
her heart and she at once asked its price
Of the obliging salesman who had been
following her about for an hour or two.
''Thirty dollars, madame" go, that is too
much. Wen, Pll call again." with lin
gering look at the vase. Some time after
Christmas, when goods are always marked
down, she went in again and saw her be-
loved vase still unsold. Another clerk this
time was at her elbow. 'How much is this
vase?" asks the lady. remembering very
well it was thirty dollars. The man looked
Twenty dollars" 80, that is too much!
Well, never mind, I'll call again." Later
in the spring she had other household arti-
eles to purchase at the store, and after they
were made she proceeded to the department.

take it? Well, no! But she went home
and told her husband of the chance, and he
replied, as men generally do under such
circumstances, that she was a goose; IL
she wanted the thing, why hadn't she
bought it in the first place. Well, she
would 60 back at once and get it The

vase she found it had been broken! where

said, with tears in her voice. Well, no, it
was not very much smashed, and then this
persistent bargain-hunter asked the price
of the blessed fragments and obtained them
for two dollars! After being mended 1t

room originally intended for its reception,

Jackets Of Lace and Velvet.

Lace jackets lined with silk are re-
vived by Parisiennes. Some OF these
are of the lace wrought in shape. while
others are made up of alternate rows
of insertion and velvet such as thread
insertion with black or copper red or
yellow velvet, or Valenciennes inser-
ton with stripes of mauve. pink or
blue velvet ribbon. Sleeveless velvet
Jackets are also worn over striped lace
corsages. Some of the new velvet
Jackets cross in front and are fastened
by single gold jeweled button at the
waist line. A lace plastron fills in the
upper part of the jacket. and the skirt
is of piece lace draped to represent a
double skirt, and finished on the left
side with a velvet panel which extends
from the belt to the foot. This is very

ficelle or Irvine colored lace; the wool
laces are also used in this way.-Har-

Nothing Tin the Way of Exceptional

In health. Paris is on level with
hundred other places. 1t has nothing
of its own to offer. Its climate pre-
sents fair average of the qualities and
faults of the central Continental wealth
err: the ar is drier and more vivfving
than that of En- gland; extremes of heat
and cold are sometimes felt, but they
are unfrequent; strong winds are rare.
and though fogs have become some
what acclimatized of late years. the air
is on the whole fairly bright and pleas
ant. But the same atmosphere may be
found almost everywhere along the
same parallel of latitude. The SAM
tary conditions are good; the sew
erage is excellent; the water is
abundant and pure, and the pre-
cautions against infection in all its
forms are minute and well applied.
The material conditions of life are,
however, growing so much alike in

ever, where under more and more
similar influences, and it may be said
without much inexactness that. so far
as Europe is concerned. what used to
be called especially a healthy or I'M

Paris as they do in other centers OF
population, but they are seldom

ally assume general character.
But all these qualities are merely
negative; they imply the absence OF
objections. not the presence of recon-
mendat'ons; Paris possesses no posi-
tive advantages in climate or health;
