unknown reason, has not been generally
adopted in the West. They are particu-
larry convenient for boating and walking.
Tennis costumes are gayer than ever, il
that were possible. One shown was OF
cardinal French flannel. The skirt had
three rows of woven border in white gray
and cardinal stripes. The blouse had a
sailor collar, edged with the same stripe.
1t also formed the sash, which was fur
nished with large pompons of soft car
dinal wool. Suits similar to these were
also shown in dark blue With them are
worn fancy cap and low-cut tan shoes, as
formerly.
Tea gowns for summer wear are of
challie and India silk; one. of white chal-
lie with a blue flower and brown vine and
leaves, and front of pale-llue surah.
An Empire belt of the challie was fast
ened at the left side with n sash, the ends
of which were finished with deep, knotted
white silk fringe. The flowing sleeves
we're lined with surah and edged with
fringe.
One of black cashmere had full front
of black and white figured India silk
shirred at the neck; the close standing
collar was o. the cashmere With the
bell shaped sleeve was pretty, close
fitting undersleeve of the silk. Where
the front breadths of the cashmere joined
the silk there was row of briar stitch
ing IN white silk extending from the neck
to the hem, making pretty and quite
effective finish. Gowns of this style,
costing but Sll, come in other colors.
The vacation suits for children are ex-
tremely pretty, cardinal or navy blue and
white flannel being the colors and
material which lead. The general
style for small children is the short
gathered-not plaited-skirts. with a
jersey waist trimmed 10 match. The
flannel is very soft and fine, so that these
suits are both light end warm. One of
fine striped blue and white flannel was
dotted with small squares, in which was
tiny scarlet anchor. The blouse was of
solid dark blue, with a pointed yoke of the
stripe, pointed turned lover collar of the
blue, embroidered in cardinal, and still
another standing collar of the stripe. The
little coat sleeves were OF blue without
cuffs. A belt of dark blue satin ribbon
had n bow tied in front, with loops and
long ends. Another of flannel had blue
and cardinal stripes in which were small
anchors. The blouse was confined by

an is impossible, madam, for"-the
truth was told with proud reluctance
"for have nothing to wear"
Nothing! Did you not have the
gowns made up that / sent you? Was
there not time? You should have told
me so as soon as you came. / am sur

"Do not blame herl" cried Margaret.
"She would have sold her lace to fit
me out respectfully, but how could L
let her? 2"
"How, indeed, poor soul But sure

What is the meaning of this? Were
You too proud to accept my gifts, or
was your vanity wounded by their sim
plicity? You do not reply. You are
beginning to make me feel ashamed OF
you How can you display such tenn
per-such ingratitude? l bought 70,
you, as | would for my own daughters
and
But now Margaret broke in impetu-
ously:
And would You have had me appear
before your guests tonight in coarse
serge, or n calico gown"
What are you saying?" exclaimed
her aunt, looking positively startled.
Il begin to think there has been
some mistake. / purchased for You
a cream surah and pale blue nuns veil
ing to be made up for evening wear,
dinner-dress of biscuit cashmere. and a
pretty stripe for walking. Did you
not receive Them"
Then Margaret described the con-
tents of the package she had received,
and Mrs. Laurence threw herself into
chair, and laughed long and heartily.
My dear, you must forgive me" she
said, when she could speak, "for it is
not L who have been in fault, but the
shopman, who has evidently put the
wrong addresses on the parcels in
trusted TO him to dispatch. When L
was shopping | bought that serge, etc,
for young girl for whom L had pro-
cured a situation. L knew she was
Eighty and had bad mother. who
would have spent the sum / promised
for her outfit in useless finery; so L
very prudently, as l thought, laid it

thanks L have received, and the assur-
ance that the lovely things that have
sent Sarah Dobbs will make quite
lady of her. What must her mistress
have thought of me? And you too,
poor child Now l can understand
why you have shrunk from me and not
seemed happy here"
Margaret spent the rest of that even
ing in her room, but it was in a very
different state of mind. She had no
more reservations from Aunt Bessie,
and not only stayed willingly at
Brighton till Mrs. Laurence moved to
Torquay, but accompanied her thither.
Only for brief term, however. DIR.
Evrington has won from her promise
to be his, and ere long he will seek his
bmde at the house of her father, Aunt
Bessie having promised, midst laugh
ter and tears. to give her something
suitable" both for her dowry and her
trousseau.

Recovering Lost Articles.

AS we'll look for n needle in bundle
of hay" rs for small article lost in the
city of New York OF course every
well-conducted railway or carrying
company has an Office in which articles
found in their vehicles are stored for
reclamation. But there are 80 many
carrying companies; the article may
have been left In cab or.in some pub
lie place; and if the owner cannot re-
member the exact place, where is he to
make inquiry for it? Would it not be
well TO have a special bureau to which
all lost articles could be sent, just as
they have in Paris, for example? There
If you leave your purse on counter,

Medill of Chicago lost 1 900 franc
bill in Paris few years ago. The
next day he clambered TO the bureau
for lost articles, in the third story OF
the Palace of Justice, and recovered
it. 1t had been found in the straw at
the bottom of cab he had used.
The Paris bureau has just been re-
organized. Articles found are entered
the finder. To claim them all that is
necessary is to properly identify them,
and they are handed over without
charge, a gratuity for the finder usual
~ being left but this is entirely at the
option of the owner. If after fifteen
days the article is not reclaimed, the
finder may claim it for himself In
case he does not il is sent 10 the maya
zine for storage for three months. and
there. if il be clothing or something of
peris liable nature, it is sold. Other.
wise it is kept for three years. An in
stance Is cited in La Repatbti91te Fran
cdiSe where Russian lost 10, 900 francs
in carriage. Eighteen months passed,
and happening to be In Paris again
and hearing for the first time of the
Bureau for Stolen Articles, he went
there aud made inquiry. He was as
tonished to have it handed over to him,
and in his generosity he left half of the
sum for the honest coachman who had
placed it there TO his credit, so to speak.
Now it does seem little unjust that
the articles found in public vehicles,
and left unclaimed, should be sold &c
swell the receipts of the company own
ing them; and the knowledge that the
product of his find will probably GO

tainly no Incentive TO the honesty o.

institution self-supportiDg, but it does
offer an incentive to honesty, about
one-sixth of the total revenues being
awarded in piizes to the policemen,

gated the most valuable finds during
the year. This, of course, in addition

A Talking Pensioner.

A man down in Colerain township,
Lancaster county, lost his pension a
short time ago in a way that he thought
for a time was rather mysterious, but he
now understands. Three or four years
ago he was allowed a pension for total
disability, and he received the sum Of
81 500, which he claimed to be due him.
After that he received $14 a month
About two months ago the pensioner,
who makes posts and rails and sets
fence, was at work near his home, when
a well dressed and pleasant looking
stranger came by and engaged him in
conversation. As the pensioner hewed
the posts. the new conner began talking
about that kind Of work, and asked him
how much he could do In a week. The
pensioner, who is inclined to brag about
himself, said that he could make more
posts and set more fence in q day than
any other man in the neighborhood.
The stranger soon went away, and since
that time the countryman has not re-
ceived a pension. He has since learned
that the stranger was a detective in the
employ Of the government, who had
been sent there to find out whether he
was as badly disabled as he claimed 10

The proposition being urged in South
Dakota that the question of women
suffrage, to be voted on there the COM
ing year. should be left exclusively to
the decision of the the ONE them
selves; will strike most men favorably.
AS the constitution does not make them
votes until the men alone have adopted
the amendment to the constitution, it is
not apparent just how the arrangement
car be made effective, but there may be
expedients that will accomplish the OBJ
ject of determining the wishes Of the
majority of the women in an authori-
tive, if not quite imperative way. The
legislature might provide for a prior
special vote of the on this
question, with the understanding that
the men at the regular election would
ratify the decision of the ladies. They
are too gallant to do otherwise. The es-
sential to women suffrage is to ascertain
de~cisiyaly the wishes of the women. If
a majority wants to vote that will settle
the question in that direction. 1t will
be insisted that the majority shall con.
trol with the ladies, as well as men.-St.
