FRESH FASHION NOTES.

Round ball buttons are in better favor
than fiat ones.
Stripes of various shades are in great
favor at the present time.
Chenille fringes in novel effects are
being shown with good results.
For fall wear velvets both plain and
figured have been moving freely
Beaded meateriaIs and an abundance
of jet trimmings amp ornaments combined
with lace are those chiefly employed for
summer mantles. Jet ornaments and
deab trimmings are more beautiful than
ever and considering how duraple they
are when really good are not expensive
in the end although costly to begin with.
Nantes are certainly departing from
their old lines this season as many of
them are dispensing with sleeves and
consist only of back and front and n
decorative epaulett. Those made in brown
beads are exceedingly pretty pIastrons
made of velvet lace gimp etc also do duty
for NANTES They are are all richly trimm-
ed with beads and bugles.
The newest thing for bOnnets is coral
leaf brought from the Bahamas. 1t was
recommended by the English Consul at
the Bahamas. The leaf dyes well and
when artistically used makes a bonnet to
the eye of connoisseurs a perfect poem
in the way of head-dress. 1t can be made
white and pink and in black is lighter
than jet.
Fruit is to be worn on bonnets and
hats as the season advances and as is the
case almost every year red and white
currants black and red cherries are
already mounted en- aigrette and in mixed
sprays but the newest is the little red
pimento berry elegantly mounted in tufts
fruit when solid wears better at the sea
side and IN the country than either
feathers or flowers.

The Romance of a Nickel.
st. Louis Globe-Democrat,

A romantic cOurtship begun in Balti-
more under peculiar circumstances has
ended in a happy marriage in Richmond,
| Va, writes a Baltimore correspondent of
the GlObeDemocrat. The bride is Miss
Blanche Thursfield, and the groom is Mr..
Thomas Bowers. now a merchant in Rich
mond. but at the time this love story
opens a resident of this city. One after
noon last June Mr.. Bowers boarded an
uptown Madison avenue car, and was
soon deeply interested in an afternoon
paper. Presently a handsome young
lady entered and took a seat beside him.
He glanced at the new and pretty pBssen-
ger, and as he looked at the pretty face
and figure beside him he noticed the
young lady draw her hand from her peck
ct and blush mantled her cheek. He saw
that she had forgotten her purse, and as
she was in the act of signaling the con
ductor to stop the car he politely asked
her if he could be OF any service. The
flush again rose to her cheek. and her en-
barrassment increased when she informed
Mr.. Bowers of her situation.
But permit me to pay your face re-
quested the gentleman.
IF you will give me your address so that
l can return the money l will consent"
she replied.
The conductor came along and Mr..
Bowers dropped the additional nickel in
his hand.
Il am ever so much obliged" said the
pretty miss. Now, will you give me your
card?"
Cards were exchanged, and the next
morning a messenger entered Mr.. Bow
ers' office and handed him neat enveI-
ope addressed in q lady's hand 1t con
tanned a nickel and the neatly expressed
thanks of Miss Thursfeld.
Correspondence followed, and the &C
qaintance thus formed soon ripened into
friendship and terminated as above re-
lated, and the bridal couple are now cross
ing the Atlantic on their wedding trip.
Mr.. Bowers is a well-known and success
full merchant of Richmond.

A QUEER TREE.
1t Produces Mosquito Nets and Wedding
Dresses.
st. Nichols.

st. Nichols.
A stranger travelling in Central Ameri-
ca expressed great surprise whea told by
his host that mosquito nets grew on trees
in that country. The host further rssert-
ed that he intended to get a wedding
dress from the same tree TO- a bride who
was to be married on his estate.
You don't mean said the traveller in

bridal dresses grow on trees. do your"

expense, 'let me see you gather the fruit
and / will believe you
Certainly" was the answer, follow the
men and you viii see that / speak the ex-
act truth
Still looking for some jest the stranger
followed the two men who were to pluck
the strange fruit, and stood by when they
stopped at a rather small tree bearing
thick glossy green leaves, but nothing
else which the utmost effort of the i'm
agInation could convert into the netting
or the wedding garment. The tree was
about twenty feet high and six inches in
diameter. and its bark looked much like
that of birch tree.
rs this the trees" asked the strang-
er.
Yes, senior" answered the men, with
smile.
Il don't see mosquito netting nor the
wedding dress" said the stranger.
and l can't see any joke either"
If the senior viii wait a few minutes
he will see all that was was promised and
and more, too" was the reply. He will
see that this tree can bear not only mos
quito netting and wedding dresses, but
fish nets and neck scarfs, mourning Grape
or bridal veils.i
THE tree was without more ado cut
down. Three strips of bark, each about
six inches wide and eight feet long, were
taken from the trunk and thrown into
stream of water. Then each man took
strip while it was still in the water, and
with the point of his knife separated
thin layer of the inner bark from one
end of the strip. The layer was then
taken In the fingers and gently pulled,
whereupon 1t came away IN an even sheet
of the entire width and length of the strip
of bark. Twelve sheets are thus taken
from each strip of bark and thrown into
the water
The men were not through yet, how
ever, for when each strip OF bark had
yielded its twelve sheets was taken from
the water and gradually stretched side
ways The spectator could hardly be-
lleue his eyes. The astonished gentle
man was forced to confess that no hu-
man made loom ever turned out lace
which could surpass IN snowy Vnifeness

waved them a final God speed

to ship away unobserved and III
order to prevent this & number OF
newspaper men stationed themselves near
the south entrance to the grounds, with
carriages convenient TO follew the presi-
dent IN case he should make his exit by

Ident, so he instructed his driver to go out
OF the grounds by another and almost
unused route, and in that way
he avoided the reporters altogether. His
carriage was driven direct to the Balti-
more d Ohio railroad station, where
special train was in waiting to take the
president and his bride to
DEER PARK.
They were escorted through the station
and INTO the car provided for them with
out attracting attention, and at nine
O'Clock the train started off TO its destina-
ton.
The president and his bride were wholly
unaccompanied on this journey. They
will probably remain at Deer Lake about
