sunshadss and parasals.

A yellow silk sunshade which was decor
ated with frillings Of two shades Of yellow
silk had the effect of daffodil and was very
pretty as an accompaniment to rich black
costume OF lace and silk.
A new and stylish handle for an umbrella,
which is to do double duty Of keeping off both
rain and sun, is an alligator's tooth set in
silver. 1t is awkward to hold but it is '.chic.'
Parasols are now made of finely plated
silk or muslin, edged with a tule embroidered
lace, and having neither flowers nor bows to
complete their ornamentation; but couple
of swallows or dove are placed on the side
For seaside and country wear they are of
bise cambria, covered with Swiss embroid-
cry, in white, deep red, or dark blue. The
handles are of plain bamboo with old silver
KNOBS, or of horsey fantasia with horseshoes
and q jockey cap and whip, or a horses
head, or again small carved negro in ebony

sidered dubious as to taste, but as we are told

THE LADY RAMBLER
Overheard q Remark That the BOYS
EEade After the %aIL.

| - tsS AoShAls
A gallant lieutenant lay sleeping in his
ent. he was thoroughly fatigued and
worn by the arduous duties of camp life, a
sense Of his own responsibilities and the in
ceSsant warfare with the hostile mosquitoes.
He was dreaming of home and loved ones,
for it was the witching hour of morn, when
man, mindful of the fate of the early worm,
most loves to hug his couch and sweetly
slumber. But bark. What sound breaks
upon the still air? The foe They come!
| He springs to his feet, girds on his sword,
and. forgetting to exchange his robe de mutt
for garments more suitable for every day
wear, rusheS forth, eager fer the fray.
Alas and alas! 1t was only the reveille.
and the brave soldier is brought to realiz-
ing sense of his condition by the laughter
Of his comrades in arms.
-
But it gives one such a feeling of calm
security to know that the militia are on
guard at ones very doors, and one almost
wishes that there might be some occasion
for them to show their mettle.
-
The combination costume is becoming
something of a bore, and it is positive re-
| lief to contemplate gown that is composed
of single color and material, and not con-
structed on the principle Of crazy quilt.
~
But in jewelry it's the odd and fantastic
that takes. In particularly dainty little
set, the pin is slender bar upon which is
perched dragon fly with body of rnbies
and out spread wings of turquoise, while a
pair of similar flies make the ear rings.
The fly, indeed, seems to be favorite i'm
ornaments; particularly handsome scarf
pin consists of one of these creatures, whose
body is cats eye and whose wings are
diamonds. A smaller fly is composed en-
tlrely OF pearls and this pin, entirely too
dainty Tor horrid man, will doubtless
adorn the mannish cravat of some dear girl.
Peculiarly groteSque is lace pin that rep
resents an animal with the body of dragon
and the head of tiger; the beasts eyes are
of cleaning rubles, and in its mouth is a
flashing diamond. Less odd, but equally
attractive, is pin that consists of a
crescent of hammered gold, within whose
arc are three pansies with diamond dew
drops nesting among their petals.
Really, you know, I particularly hate
eaveSdropperS, but I had settled myself
with book in sheltered nook by the
shore, and when they stopped so near me.

said? Well, Freddy was telling Jack some
of his last nights hop experience.

1tlvely new sensation, and do not consider

one hugs the average girl, you know, he is
pretty certain that he has somewhere within
his grasp bit of real flesh and blood, and
consequently he enthuses, but for ali the
yield and elasticity there is about her. she

THE SILENT AZTEC,
The silence of dead centuries

line silence OF dead centuries
That lie entombed on yonder hills,
Is his. These dreamful poppy seas
Wave on; he listsl His silence fills
The land. He leans, as if he heard
God speak through some still gorgeous bird.
His babes about: the golden morn
Strikes godlike on yon holy hill;
His wife and daughter grinding corn,
1.-TWO women grinding st a MILL
oh, mystery! Yon sun of old
Was god, was god and ample gold.
Yon golden hills had focks of snow;
These valley fields had far increase.
He saw his white sails fill and blow
By poppy isles in flower seas.
The wood dove sang for him his loves,
His harshest note the soft wood doves.
The Spaniard's hand is laid upon
his fields, his focks, hard, fast and tight.
But, oh! this glorious, golden dawn,
The golden doors that close at night.
His gold-hued babes, her russell breast
Are his! The world may have the rest.

Dame Rumor says that the irrepressible
George Gould, the dashing young financier
of Wall street, has captured the heart of
Miss Edith Kingdom of Days company,
now playing in England. Miss Kingdom is
one of the leading women of Days troupe,
and is as pleasing as Ada Rehan. Miss
Kingdom portrays the affectionate daugh-
ter, the fond and clinging sweetheart, and
the faithful wife to perfection. Her smiles
turned upon the audience are perfectly en-
trancing, and her manner irresistible. For
some time past Mr. Gould has been paying
her marked attention. They drove in
Central Park and Toasted at Delmonico's in
most approved stage lover-like style. Be-
fore joining Days company, Miss Kingdom
was a teacher of elocution in New Eng
land.

any ordinary female under similar circum-

the ordinary embrace what Veuve Cncquet is
to Sundey school picnic lemonade. She in

sisted upon going In, though I did my best to
persuade her to sit through the storm. But
she couldn't take that embrace with her; it

must have felt kind of sloppy and funny.

But can't for the life of me imagine
where some OF the girls tuck away their
corsets. I saw sweet damsel on the street
yesterday who fairly took away my breath
She had on blue gown with yoke and
sleeves Of a transparent white ma
terial that fitted like glove, and, bless
your heart! there was precious little to the
waist out yoke. It came within two inches
Of the belt at the back and pair of sharp
shoulder blades was perfectly defined,

suppose she did have some sort of garment
underneath the thing, but it must have
been microscopic in its proportions.

The gay procession Of flowers is as no.
ticeable upon our dusty streets as in the
greenest Of country lanes. Observe the
passersby. Even with calendar mislaid
you would know the month. At present,
great, dreamy water lilies bloom at every
belt and wither in every button hole; a
little later you will see the oX-eyed daisies
and then will come the asters and golden
rod. From violets and marsh marigolds
through apple blossoms and lilacs have we
passed to the height of midsummer, and
till the last leaf of autumn has withered we
shall not lack reminders Of natures lavish
outpourlng OF beauty.

What Can be Done.

By trying again and keeping up
courage many things seemingly i'm
possible may be attained. Hundreds
of hopeless cases of Kidney and Liver
Complaint have been cured by Elec-
trio Bitters, after everything else had
been tried in vain. So, don't think
there is no cure for yon, but try Elec-
trio Bitters. There is no medicine so
safe, so pure, and so perfect Blood
Purifier. Electric 8ittefs will cure
Dyspepsia, Diabetes and all Diseases
of the Kidneys. Invaluable in affec-
