BEAUTY,s SPRING GOWNS.
TaIIor-Made Garments Snug in Fit
and Price.

The tailor gowns which are given below
are from Redfern's designs and show what
will probably be prevailing modes for the
early spring and summer. They are of
new fabrics. of light weight and represent
ideas new in this style of gown. In two of
them we see the polonaise, which promises
10 be revived again this season.
The graceful gown of brown Venetian
cloth shown in the first cut has braid deco
ratiOns of mixed brown and gold. The
skirt is quite plain in front. with volumin-
Gus straight folds in the back. The demi-
polOnaise extends to the foot in front. and
has a short position basque in the back.
The front Of the bodice is Tapped in fichu
style, with braided revers upon il. and the
neck is filled in with high plastron. The
front of the polonaise skirt has a similar
revers. and braiding to match is on the
sleeves and front of skirt.
The other gown in this first cut Is a taste
full combination of two materials; it has a
stylish striped summer homespun skirt,
with revers, vest, collar and cuffs of the
same and polonaise OF plain homespun.
Two shades OF gray, blue, green or brown
are used in such suits. The polonaise is
turned forward and backward on the side
and faced with diagonal stripes. The
pointed vest is given pretty
effect by having the stripes sci
in V shapes. The high collar
is also striped and the cuff is pointed.

that is, the tornure will still be worn and
will play more important part in the dress
drapery than formerly.
new model for an early spring toilet
for outdoor wear is shown in our llustra-
ton. and is notable for its graceful drapery
and arabesque band trimming. The cloth
Is dull gray, known as putty color, and
the arabesque Is in wine color on a gray
ground. The cape makes it becoming to
a slender figure, and the little Normandy
bonnet with lace filling in front gives a
piquant touch to the whole, In dark blue,
violet moss green and pale gray this dress
would be equally effective.
Little jackets OF rough pilot cloth made
close fitting and ornsmented with great
fancy oXidized buttons are to be worn dur
ing March by young ladies. Long cloaks
are entirely out of favor and certainly lack
the jaunty grace of a jacket. White and
red wool jackets are in favor and with
these latter little Russian turbans OF the
same material are worn.
Dress sleeves, which have received much
attention during the past few years. are tC
be moderately tight this spring, and iii
smoothly over the upper part of the arm,
although at the elbow there will be plenty
of room. Plain sleeves are still the mos
fashionable. They are left open at the
wrist for a few inches and finished by a
cuff or bow of ribbon.
A Partisan mOdiste says that soft silks,
such as surah, China and foulard, are being
made up for house and carriage toilets.
These are combined with velvet of darker
shade and trimmed with a profusion Of
Spanish or Oriental lace.
A very pretty model being made for g

The laced basque promises to be a feature
of spring toilets. 1t has eyelets worked in

Had we met before around thee
Thou hadst forged the bonds of fate,
Ere the ties that long have bound thee
Proved our meeting thus, too late;
Then, perchance, thy tender wooing
Had not found its answer cold;
But in vain is now thy suing,
And the tale of loving told.
Pledges TO another bind thee,
And no longer thou art free,
At thy post let honor find thee,
Ban.shing all thought of me.
Now, perchance, thy heart refusing
To be stilled by wish of thine,
All its strength and courage losing,
Longs 10 fly and rest on mine.
Yet in time when mists have risen,
And thine eyes have clearer light,
j shall seem but vision
Which hath faded from thy sight.
Be these words the last ones spoken,
With our eyes, perchi nee, tear-wet;
But with heart unsJained. unbroken-
Go your way, dear, and forget.

Twas at a country party
One pleasant night in May;
The hours were swiftly passing
In harmless mirth aud play.
And every one seemed joyous
Save one poor little maid,
Who far from all the others
Her dallying steps had straye6
Her eyes were brightest azure,
Her air like finest silk,
And in her face the roses
Were mingled with the milk.
Her cherry lips were trembling,
And full OF deepest pain
Was her sweet face, as slowly
She wiped a tear again.
Had some one dared to slight her
And cause her this distress?
Or had she seen her lover
Some other lass caressg
Ny heart was torn with pity,
i fastened TO her side.
sob, tell me, beauteous maiden,
What is thy griefy' l cried.
"Has some one, whom thou lovests
Proved to thee unkind,
That on thy face so lovely
The traces of tears i find?"
She raised her eyes TO scan me,
And IN a voice most sweet,
fla, no." she said, and simpered,

YOUNG WIDOWS.
Another Product OF the Glorious
Climate Of California.

The number of youthful widows who
grace the promenades is subject of sur
prise to the stranger in the city. No statis-
tician has ever compiled figures bearing
upon this question of the early bereavement
of California ladies. But that there Is a
surprising frequency of blooming young
women clad in weeds of woe is apparent to
every observer. The same remark does not
apply to the cemeteries. The widows, who,
bearing watering-pots and wreaths Of inn
mortelles, traverse the melancholy high
ways of the city Of the dead, are for the
most part middle-aged women. Occasionally
a young mOurner is seen in the group. but
only occasionally. The great majority of
young relcts appear in the trappings of
grief upon the streets. The fascination
this class of females have for the other sex
Is incomprehensible, but there can be no
doubt of its existence. Men who rarely
turn to look after a pretty maid or
matron will almost dislOcate the neck in
peering along the wake of sable-clad
widow. They are q dangerous class of
persons. because the history of humanity
shows that the woman who buried a hus-
band while she is yet between the ages of
is and 25 will usually plant another to
keep him company before she settles down
to hnal matTimony or final widowhOod.
Maidens have poor chance in the race
with widows. To use sporting phrase,
I'm nine cases out of ten the widow will give
them odds and beat them out. Lean
widows are an exception in this state, and
plumpness the rule. In the East Cali
fornia widow Is the terror of society. be-
cause, added to the attraction Of widow
hoon, is the glamour of mines and
bOnanzas. So the fair maidens of that
chilly cline have to take back seat when
any of our crape-shrouded ladies cross the
continent. They are never too old to marry
and their choice lies almost invariably
among the very young. There are not a
few gentlemen in this town to-day who
wear fine clothes and tread lightly on the
cobbles who would be porting over the
ledger or packing the California codes
about the court for the use of their lawyer
masters but for this trait in the constitu-
ton of our widowS.-San Francisco Wasp.

material may be hemmed round with gar

a band OF carnation petals; white or pale

NOT KNOWN TO FAME.
One Of the ChivaIric Deeds of the Nine
teenth Century-Capt. Jutid's Fate.

THAT order is still In torce,' said an
other lieutenant, ''and, Of course we can
not criticise it. But how much goes on in
the navy of which the outside world
knows nothing. Take the example OF
poor Judd. When prestan became ugly

Galena, sent Judd ashore 90 demand al

that at the arst gun the Galena fired or

kept in the 'calaboose' all night, expect
ing to be shot in The morning. In the
morning Prestan came 10 them and told
Judd that If he would sign an agreement
that the arms on board the Colon would
be delivered up he would let them all go.
"Judd did SO and Prestan released his
prisoners. Judd returned on board the
Galena and told what he had done. But
meantime Capt. Kane had driven the

Col. CllOa came dashing up with the
government troops, and in the fight Judd
escaped and went on board the Galena.

his men, and Judd went with them,
eager for revenge. That day the horrible

place, and all day Judd fought bravely

The old story of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea, gets new illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria. The
story is soon told: My daughter said a
lady, had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was all the time out of
health-p0Or appetite. diSOrdered digestion,
pale earthly color, pain in the head, limbs
and back, and every now and then right
hard chill. followed by fever. Then we
would send for our doctor and he would
prescribe quinine, just as he did from the
frst-and 20 kept doing all alOng-until the
name of quinine sounds like the tOlling of
the bell. Clearly between the two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name ID
varied, and it is called some other inc in
place of quinine, but it is all the same-the
old firm with new sign. In this dilema a
lady friend said: Why not try Humph-
rey'S Homeopathic Specifies, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen tried them. They were sue
cess from the first, and not only cured the
malaria, but restored her to perfect health,
and left no trace of disease or drug pOis-

PAwNING HER Boys CLOTHES FOR MED
ICINE. A poor woman in Wales, whose
boy had been very ill for several years, had
expended all of her means to pay for medi-
cine. At last the doctors gave him up and
said he must die. He suffered so terribly
with rheumatism that he could not be
moved. One day some one told her about
the Mount Lebanon Shakers. The evidence
of the curative powers of their Extract Of
Roots was so convincing that she pawned
the poor boys clothes to buy bottle of the
remedy (Siegers Syrup, but now she feels
proud that size did So for it was the means
of curing her son. The Shakers say that
this is the result of indigestion and that the
medicine cured the dyspepiia, and that the
rheumatism was only symptom of the
real disease.
