Take the case OF one of this season 9

of tulle gowns and you have the approxi-

rule for the de- utante. Yes, aud white

But to each tulle gown goes silk slip
and skirt upon skirt OF tulle, one outside
another, ballet dress fashion. until the re.
quisite airy delicate butterfly appearances

two everage dances. three small affairs

beginning. Reckon for other more or
less formal occasions three or four other
white gowns.
There has been probably ON embr0id-
cred India muslin, a gown of ivory cloth
with delicate tracery OF gold, soft white
silk of some description, and maybe .
dotted net over silk. These came TO from
5000 to $700 more The debutante has

The Story Of a Rare Plant.

Years ago Dr.. Asa Gray was studying
in Paris, and in hcrbarium there came
across small, broken and imperfect
specimen marked simply "From Amer
ica," which interested him much. From
tho fragments before him he recon-
structed the whole plant. His work
was approved by tho botanists about him,
and he named tho little plant 'Shortia
Galacifolia" in honor of DR.. Charles w.
Short, tho distinguished botanist. But
no live specimens of tn, plant could be
found. Years passed on aud it had
never been seen. At last botanist at
work in Japan found and named a plant
which seemed to be of a genus closely
allied to tho Shoriia. DR.. Gray CORE
sponded with the botanist, and it was
concluded that the doctor had been in
error and had mistaken specimen OF
the japanese genus. So tho Shortia
was generally left out of the list OF
plants by systematic botanists.
But twenty years after this,
as Dr. Goodale and Professor
Watson were one day in the library of
the University, they heard shout of
triumph from the herbarium and rushed
in to tild DR.. Gray waving a small plant
about in the widest enthusiasm. "Look
at it! What is it2 he cried. The two
botanists examined it as directed and
recognized the characteristics of the
much-discussed plant 'It is the
Shortia," they exclaimed. Tho spcci.
men had been sent by house in the
South which made business of nuttiae Q
up medicinal herbs. 1t had been
brought in from some hitherto unex-
plorcd nook in the mountains by one ol
their collectors, and sent to tho pro-
fessor for Identification. 1t proved in.
deed to be the Shortia, which was there
fore once more reinstatel in the flora
family, greatly to Dr.. Gray's delight
DR.. Gray afterward visited the locality
in which the plant was found, and pro
cured living specimen for the botani
cal garden. Il New York Tribune.

The American Mule.

No monument has yet been erected to
honor the memory of the American
mule. He is not bad subject for treat
ment in bronze. His colossal ears,
hugo frame and expr essive countenance
would make up extremely we'll for---let
us say---a pedestal in front of tho War
Dept; nay, why should not at least
oae coin of the Republic bear his image
and superscription, as was suggested in
the following eloquent passage from tho
Fourth of July Grafton of Mr.. George
w. Peck, delivered at La Crosse, Wis
consin, in 1878:
''The bird that should have been
selected as the emblem of our country:
the bird of patience, forbearance, and
perseverance, and the bird of terror
when aroused, is the mule. There is no
bird that combines more virtues to tho
square foot than tho mule. With the
mule emblazoncd on our banners, we
should be terror to the foe. We are
nation OF accomplishing hard workers.
We mean to do tho fair thing by every
body. We plod along, doing as we
would be done by. So doe, tho mule.
We, as nation, arc slow to anger. So
is the mule. As nation, VIC can occa-
sionally stick our ears forward and fan
flies off our forhcad. So does the mule.
We allow parties to get on and rilo as

filled by a large, low glass receptacle
some eight feet long, which was i'm
bedded in moss aud ferns, and in which
swan gold fish and tcrrapin. In tho
middle rose a fountain whose spray
reached almost to the chandelier. At
each lady's plate was uniquely beauti-
full bouquet palm fern forming the
background for a splendid bunch of La
France roses. Each place was dcsig-
mated as belonging to guest by al ivory
tablet, on which the name was en-
bossed in silver. The table was orna-
mented with many rare treasure, OF sill
ver and china. Each salt cellar was a
silver swan, and in each was al apostle
spoon,' Mrs. ---- being the fortunate
possessor OF set of those beautiful
examples of the skill of silversmiths of
the middle ages. Tankards three or
four hundred years old ornamented the
occasion, and Nuremburg drinking

pealed to a more hardy thirst than
gentlemen at New York dinner parties
are in the habit of exhibiting"
