EXTREME BELLIES WHO REVIVE FASHIONS
There are degrees in the fashionabIenes,
OF fashionable women in New York. A
comparatively small contingent of very
wealthy and enterprising bellies keep well
ahead of the mass of modish women. Let
us illustrate this point. Here comes two
girls dressed fashionably. Their hats are
June shapes, their bodices are in the latest
Developments Of the familiar Jersey. their
skirts are draped high behind, and take
them all III all, they are excellent expou-
ents OF approved garments. You will
Ind them subsequently duplicated all
through promenade in Fifth avenue or
| Broadway. There is nothing singular or
individual in their aspect They are ex
hlblts OF the general tendency of fashion
Tor the ensuing season. But look further
along and you will find an essentially DIFF
ferent figure, and it is that of what NAV be
termed an extreme belle. She probably
belongs to one of "our best families and
her allowance of clothes money is like
that of a Princess. She can command the
services of an original designer. or of one
who gets ideas fresh from the foreign CEN
tiers of dressmaking. Therefore she is
able to wear this June what the majority
OF stylish women will not get or even de-
sire, before August or September She
has gained her distinction principally by
being pioneer in the revival of lace
fringe as toilet establishment. That
material has not been in vogue for a long
time, but it is coming, and she is among
the first to bring it in. Her shoulders and
bosom are draped with it and it extends
down the front of her skirts. She has al
most discarded the hustle for the tournure
is formed by the drapery of the skirt itself
rather than by interior support.-Ner

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT COFFEE.
To prepare coffee you must take the
green seed, using your Judgment to make
sure that 1t is new. You must then roast
1t In rotary cylinder, or even in small
frying pan, over a charcoal fire. 1t will |
change Its color from light sage-green to
dark brown, and will at the same time be-
gin to sweat. Drops of brown oil will !
stand out upon it and will give out an I'M
mlstakable aroma. This aroma consists of
a delicate essential oil, so volatile in its
nature that coffee roasted the day before
yesterday-not to say coffee that had been
roasted and ground and kept in tin foil for !
a month-has no more left of its virtue !
than rose week cut The seed thus
should stain your fingers or leave
a perceptible greasy brown trace on white |
blotting paper. From this point all is !
easy. Break your seeds, for the kernel of |
the nut Is always the sweetest. Tie the frag-
ments in muslin. Then, if you are an ep |
lcure, pour small quantity of actually |
boiling water upon a large allowance of |
them. But you can get admirable coffee
for large number of guests if you boil
the muslin bag for minute and a half or
two minutes, and not longer Coffee is am
and not decoction. Coffee thus
is beverage within the reach of
every man who will make it or see it made
for himself; and it can be made by any
woman who condescends to be taught.

GooD-BY TO TAILoR-MADE COSTUMES.
Another thing that you may bid good
by to is the tailor-made costume. Not
that man tailors will not continue to make
robes for women, but the distinctly man
nish garment, with its pronounced mascu-
line seams, Is going out of favor. The
newest walking suits of wooden, or mixed
silk and wool, are now often made up with
the selvage edges showing. That may be
more than passing within, but one sees
of it during a saunter on the
avenue. The seamless and enduring Jersey
still remains in sight, but it has undergone
so many changes that it is no longer the
plain knitted revealing thing that it was
at the outset. At first it was a skin-tight
basque, with no seams, and general sng-
sestion of underwear. Now it is an ele-
CANT bodice, with as many boned seams as
full dress corsage, and finished with a
vest, gathered to pointed yoke that may be
all over with beads of gold or
steel.-Neau York Sun.
