the Past Week.
OTHER VARIED NOTE AND COMMENT.
The sweetest songs ever sing
Are those sing to you,
The deepest thoughts that can bring
Are thoughts never knew
Until your soft eyes questioning
Had made me question, too.
My soul lies open to your sight,
When ali the worlds away,
Like that pale flower that at night,
As ancient legends say,
Unfolds beneath the moons clear light
And dies at dawn Of day.
Women, especially of the younger kind,
who want to be Gin the style" and who
have no other way Of keeping posted than
an occasional peep at fashion magazine,
had better look out or they will get left. "
The present autumn and coming winter
will see one of the most radical all round
changes and departures in womsn's dress
that has taken place since crinoline went
out. There will be changes not only in
materials and designs, but also in the cut
and make Of dresses, and in the style OF
hats and the shape Of hats that will be al
most radical, so that it will be hard work
to make last winters wardrobe fill the bill.
Dame Fashion has got in her work well
this time, and dressmakers and dry goods
merchants will have plenty to do and
dear papas and fond ''hubbys" may as
well face the music.
Dress skirts are gradually becoming
longer. Last year the skirt was long
enough to show the whole foot, now only
the tip of the same is visible. White
cloth skirts with Oriental embroidery are
much worn, draped with Bengaline Eoli-
epne wolfe, or some such light material.
The bodice is made of white cloth, and o
tunic of the same material, held on the
shoulder with an agrsffe and fastened ut
the waist with metal or fancy belt, gives
ouite an Oriental finish to the costume.
Autumn hats for ladies will, as a rule,
be low in the crowns and ribbons will
take the place of flowers. Striped ribbons
will be popular.
Here are some pointers from the Pbils-
delphia Times that the boys should keep
pasted in their hats: "a lady who has
given the matter much attention is author
ity for the declaration that in kissing all
men kiss with too much force. A kiss to
he appreciated by a girl, she Gays, must be
gentle and not rough, and under no cir-
eumstances should have any suggestions OF
tobacco or John Bsrleyc0ip. As the result
of comparing notes with many lady friends,
married aud engaged, she asserts that the
kisses of three-fourtbs of mankind, hus
bands, lovers and brothers, are smoky"
OF late there has been violent recur-
renee Of the gum chewing habit among the
sccieiy bellies, so prevalent early in the
spring. Indeed, it is quite fad, and ev-
erybndy chews 1t Ii very amusing 10
watch the various motions of the organs OF
speech in the seeming anxiety Of the fair
maiden to reduce her dyspsptic tendency.
The parlor, the street, the family carriage,
the street car, everywhere can be seen the
gums of the young ladies violently chew
L. tho haifar--In
fact, haDitusl users of gam are hardly sat
isfied with one stick, but have to use sev-
eral to crafty themselves. Those OF the
male sex who, q short time ago, were
much addicted to the gum habit, which
gradually died out, are again acquiring a
taste for il, and the craze will doubtless
again be prevalent for short while.
Society people will be treated with de-
liphtful entertainment on the evening Of
Tuesday, October 2, the occasion being a
Shakespearean recital given by Mr.. Han
nibal williams. an accomplished and tai
ented elocutionist of New York. The affair

Der of prominent citizens, each Of whom

the play given on this occasion, the recital
to bt Gin at 8 and end at 10 O'Clock. By
the kindness Of Rev. Bonnheim the en-
tertainment will be held in the Jewish
Synagogue.
Social events have been quite scarce the
past week, aside from the usual several
weddings that occur each week now. With
commendable regularity. The early Octo.
Der weeks promise to bring forth several
wedding events in which prominent young
society people will be the high contract
