In bodices the prevailing style is 8
long pointed front. Many have the fall
ness put in at the shoulder and crossed
over the bust, while in others this full
ness follows the Slope to the point, leav-
ing Y shaped opening to be filled in
with small pleatiugs or tulle.
The shape of the collar, where the neck
Of the basque is high, has much to do
with the appearance of the dress, and q
few hints as to the correct way OF making
these may not be amiss. Long necks re-
quire wider collars, some are from two
to two and half inches wide, but ordi-
narily an inch and three-qusrters is suf-
t1cient. The higher the collar the lower
the neck of the basque must be cut, and
the bottom edge Of tn collar must be
shaped to At, the front edges are straight
and the back bias, and those are best
fitting that have q seam in the back. For
lining use buckram or wiggin. The Grim
oline wrinkles. Cut the interlining first,
allowing q seam on the lower edge
only, then bssSe 1t on
the material, cutting this wide
enough to turn over on the top and edge,
cut a bliss facing, haste is on and blind
stitch the top and end, then haste the
material and wiggin to the neck of the
basque holding the basque next to you,
then hem down the lining. The collars
of many dresses are made Of velvet, as
there is nothing that so fiatters the COM
plexion. Those who have pretty throats
or are stout, Still wear turned over COL
lars. They are cut narrow in the back
and deeper in the front, or are regular
coat collars with revers. The rolled col
lars are lined and faced like the others,
and they 1T better if the seam is on the
right side OF the basque. To hollow
chested women revers are most
becoming, as they fll-up and
give rounded effect. These and other
accessories of bodice trimming, when St
tempted by an amateur, should be cut
first in paper and pinned on so that any
defect may be easily remedied. Bias
folds often take the place OF revers, some
times crossing each other tchu fashion,
or one end carried round to the left side,
the other terminating at the bust.
Cotton gowns for morning, that do not
go to the washtub, are much sought after
Just at present. A csprice Of the hour Is
one of coarse cotton stuff. The under
skirt has high scant plating, and the out.
side one Is shirred from four to six
inches deep around the waist, and
has wide trimming of lace or en-
broidery around the edge. Move
ment can be given to plain skirt II more
becoming to the figure, but the extreme
style is to let 1t fall straight down. The

4 charming gown for the evening or
summer is of white mousseline de sole,
the back of the skirt long, full and
straight with front resembling aprons,
one over the other, edged with
wide lace. There were two waists
for this skirt, each to be trimmed
differently. A bengaline silk costume of
delicate maize colors is combined with
lace embroidered in the same delicate
shade. The skirt is most artistically
draped and the corssge trimmed with net
OF the same color. A black MORE striped
and combined with jetted lace and looped
with Jets is very handsome. A Gobelin
blue cashmere combined with shot silk is
finished with Irish point, and made with
Marie Stuart sleeve and is striking nov
city. A Chins silk of dark navy blue
white is trimmed with Irish
point and loops of wstered rib
bons snd rosettes; the corsage, lovely
with its little tucks On the shoulder. A
very choice dress shows skirt Of blue
silk, brocaded in pink spray and daisies.
Over this is q stylish drape.y in the finest
of French cashmere in new blue, the edge
OF the drapery finished by the selvedge.
The waist of cashmere has sleeves Of silk
and one side of the waist is also draped
with the silk. The skirt is looped in the
the whole is superb.

of scarlet surah, Of pale green or of black.
The majoritU of dresses seen on Easter
Sunday in the large cities were Of silk,
cut princess, the drapery in almost every
instance following out the long, straight
effect. There were many black costumes,
some very handsome in black and white,
the trimming Of corsage being the mar
roWest possible alternate pleats Of black
and white silk and the gsrniture white
lace.
Untrimmed sleeves are thing of the
past. Puffs are used at shoulder, elbow
and cuff, others have the material laid in
fine pleats nearly to the waist, leaving a
puff at the cuff, some have what is known
as the Vandyke cas that is familiar to al
who have seen the portraits Of the time
of Charles 1. The cuts in to-day's paper
show some of the newest designs adapted
to thick and thin material.

rlcs Tor costuming, green IN various
shades and in new combinations prevails;
its popularity has not, however, wholly
banished grey. 1t may be the memory OF
penitentisl day is yet too fresh, but the
color is sucn q favorite and is DOW Of
such c shade as to admit OF such
q wonderful variety Of tones that there
seems to be good reason to expect 1t Will
continue to be worn. One OF the latest
hues is shade approximating brown that
combines prettily with that color IN form
ing costume; then there are Russian
steel snd silver greys that have blush
tint, limiting of morning skies cleaning
through thin, grey clouds; others, again,
have s phosphorescent brightness Just
hidden by the sshen surface. These
shades OF grey come in all fabrics, and
are made into brilliant suits by sparkling
trimmings of beads, cut Jet and crystals.
In fabrics there is nothing shown for
spring wesr more desirable than chstlies.
These come in lovely colors and designs,
and combined with surah silk and crepe

noon and evening wear. These have,
however, grown so elaborate that only the
Initiated can discern wherein lies the
difference in the two gowns. One OF the
late features in the tea gown is the long,
pointed sleeves. These add grace to the
garment and are usually lined with satia
or silk Of different color.
In the arrangement Of skirts the great
object seems to preserve 9 straight line
without giving an appearance of stiffness
or rigidity that is generally involved in q
straight line. This tries the skill OF dress
makers as 1t is no easy matter to secure
The two effects Of straight folds and
drsperies. The usual way issto have the
dress more or less in redingote form

with draperies. Striped materials have

An Authors supcrstitution.

Howard Secly, the Texas writer, who
has been attracting attention for
several years past by his clever sketches
and stories of frontier life, and whose
recent novel, "A Nymph of the West
has been receiving favorable comment,
has some curious supcrstitions about
literary composition and is unique in
his methods of work.
The most unique feature of his study
is a human skull and fcmorl sur
mounting a bookcase. The thigh bones
are those of a man, but the skull is Il
woman's, said to have formerly apper-
tanned to a Mexican senoritu of great
beauty. There is some mystery about
this relic, for the author is reiiccnt
about talking of it.
The brain cavity is lined with black
velvet, and the top of the skull opens
with Il hinge; for this CHASTITY box is q
receptacle for pens add the names of
his Eeroines inscribed on bits of ivory.
1t is his custom when the name of Il
heroine has been selected and her
character aud physical attractions are
in process of development to put this
title III the head of tie skull and let il
remain there until the storyis finished.
The eyes of the skull are provided with
silver fonts TO contain ink-tilc left red
and the right black. Whom in the
throcs of composition this skill is used,
and his fiction may, therefore. be said
to emanate from the left eye. and con
s%c4uentiy from the hemisphere, of the
skull of the Mexican scnorita.
Readers of Poe's Cold Bug may
smile at this singular analogy between
the finding of material and mental
treasures by this scpuichral process,
but in Mr.. Secly's case, oddly enough,
the result is neither morbid nor gluc-
some. His fiction is eminently whole
some, natural, and even of humorous
turn. Cynthia Dallas. the heroine of
"a Nymph OF the Vest is said to
have been after a prominent braAty in
New York society. In this respect
Mr.. Seely follows the tradition Of Sir
Walter Scott in ~..lvanhoe.m for Re-
becra is currently believed have been
the portrait of a Jewish lady OF Phila-
delphia. -NcW York. GrGgAic.

Lucky John Harrington.

like the substantial matter, of,fect ma,
tfat he is, he continues in his old posi.

company's stamp mill, not having taken
a single day from his duties to celebrate
a's good fortune. His ticket, which wns

drew the second capital prize of $50, 900,
was the second that he had bought from
the Louisiana State Lottery. He has
therefore sent that institution but 50
His prize of $4,000 was collected far him
