FLANNEL DRESSES

For tennis, boating or yachting attract
much attention by pretty jauntiness,
while Independent blouse waists of flannel
are to be worn with flannel skirts, thus
forming a combination suit, or with any
kind of thin wool skirt, spare the making of
a special costume. Silk blouses are ex-
tremely tasteful and may replace those of
flannel, while negtgee morning dresses may
be rendered more comfortable by independ-
ent blouses of cross-barred muslin, percale
or linen. Some most attractive flannel
costumes are in preparation for Shelter
Island, that lovely summer resort, where
one looks from green grass trees and hill
sides to notwithstanding salt waters.
Yachting, boating and bathing are recrea-
tions for everyone, while the young people
enjoy evening dances. l hope myself for
sojourn there this season.

THE LANGUAGE OF DECEPTION.

Perhaps it is to atone for the severely
high necks that fancy runs riot in addi-
lions on the fronts of corsages. Folds are
in formal lines or loose, or the fabric may
lie carelessly, the broken outlines running
every way, but adding greatly to the APP
parent development. Vests give unexam-
pied opportunity, and their immense pop
ularity presents room for perpetual varia-
ton. On dresses of every material they
find appropriate display, md are used not
only to afford amplitude to thin figures,
but in fat styles for short persons, often
bring about fine effects Of contrast or har-
mony.
Waistcoats are akin to vests and each
day become more fashionable, the iaunty.
loose coats to which they are adjuncts be-
ing another weapon in the hands of thin
beauties. Elegant waistcoats are of rich
white or pale colored silk, beautifully en-
broidered by hand, the coat being Of fine
black or dark colored cloth; but less ex-
pensive waistcoats are of thick white cloth
covered with metal braid Sometimes the
coat cleeves have a cuff to match, which
gives to the wearer military arr Mixed
cloth coats are not unfrequently worn with
metal-braided waistcoats, but should not

NEW YORK, June %, 1888.
To seem is now as easy as to be-per-
haps easier, since puflings weigh less than
pounds of flesh, and are preferable in loco
motion on warm day. Thin arms grow
more than symmetrical under inflated
sleeves and corsages afford unheard of OBJ
portunities for deception. Pulled out vests
and all manner of kindred bagginess are so
fashionable as to merit a special para
graph. Skirts increase in circumference
as bustles diminish, while pronounced
figured patterns and large plaids 90 to

ammunition, the liberty of to-day admitting

around the face and full dressing about
the neck. Nor should my readers imagine
the above words written in spirit of
satire. The woman to whom addition is
an addition, ought to add, as the woman
who should substract, ought to substract.

Will The Coming Man Take Med

1t is pretty certain that the coming man
will be bald if he continues to wear tig g

eyes upon near objects. But there will be
other changes. easily foreshadowed by the
present drift of events. Faith in revul-

A Mineral District.

The Enterprise, published at Broadway.
Rockingham county. calls attention in
the following article TOT mineral district
which of late years has attracted very little
practical attention. Another article in
the same paper gives cogent reasons why
a basic plant could be made to pay at that
point, as the phosph0retic ores are not
over five or six miles from that depot, and
could be shipped over tramway from
the mines to the suggested furnace at
comparatively little cost. There is no
doubt that the Brooks Gap section con-
tains valuable minerals, and some day,
whether sooner or later, we cannot say,
capital and enterprise will be amply re-
warded in developing and utilizing them.
The Enterprise SAYS:
If a cut of any imaginable depth, was
made from Broadway to the Western base
would cross in the first one and 3 half
miles, the geological formation which
contains the famous Wytheville zinc and
galena mines.
In the next four miles it would en-
counter heavy deposit OF red and green
