A Dream H. Heavy Satin.

New Ymk Sun.
The most expensive corset kept in
stock at the dry goods stores of this
city is usually $50 one. To spend
more than that on corset a woman
must have it made to order. Thirty
five dollars buys a dream in heavy
satin, sprinkled with gold embroid-
cry, or decorated with a clever imita-
ton of hand painting. 1t is lined with
heavy silk and made so that there is
not seam or roughness of any sort to
worry the tender flesh of the wearer,
and the harsh steels where it fastens
in front are covered with down lest
they might accidentally pinch the
flesh. Such corsets are made Ell tirely
by hand in Paris.

his usual haunts, because he is busy
at work on new drama. Mackaye
never buckles down to work until the

and facility are prodigious. He de-
clares he must wait fer inspiration,
and spurred by the demands of the
occasion, he can write, when under
ordinary occasions he can not. For
that reason he does not turn out as
much work as he might or his friends

English Office-Seekers Justas Bad
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
An English newspaper announced
the other day that there were over 100
applicants for appointment as consul
in one of the West African colonies.
This seems strange in view of the fact
that the British agents in the Bights
and Niger delta live, if they
will stick to their posts about
four years on an average.
Still every appointee fondly hopes
that he is the lucky man who
can withstand the climate, and the
salary of S., 900 and travelling expenses
lures him on his fate. A while ago
an applicant for consular honors in
West Africa inquired at the foreign
office in London what amount of pen
sion was paid to supreannuaUed con-
suls in the African service. He was
told that as yet there had been no
superannuated consuls to pension, and
the question would not be decided
until a case presented itself.
