Millinery Memoranda.

~ gather that birds will be the popular
trimming for bonnets again this winter, u
Says Miss Mantalini in The Pail Mall Bud
get "The milliners are piling them on
with their old recklessneSs."
Hats are worn in any direction now, ac-
sording to the wearer's fancy. Some wom-
TN will wear their hats perched right at the
back, others will go to the opposite ex-
treme and wear them low on the face, like
a burglars cap. Another style is to wear
the hat slightly on one side
A rather smart kind of hat for travel
ling, in blue felt, has a moderate brim
slightly curved all round, and low crown
bound by velvet band and sharpened with
bow of velvet on one side and paste
buckle.
Quilts and wings will be popular trim
mings this autumn.
The toreadOr hat promises to be fashion
able again. Il is trimmed in various ways
One'of the most attractive trimmings for
this particular hat is couple of ropes Of
velvet and a bird or two. The velvet is
twisted round the base and top edge of the
crown, the birds finding a resting place at
the side.
Bonnets are assuming sensible proper
tions again. A bonnet now is really a
head cover, and worthy the name. Those
ponsensical things consisting simply of
butterfly, scrap of lace, or half a dozen
leaves, that did duty as bonnets the early
part of the year, have vanished.

Good Ideas About Choosing Wall Paper

Good Ideas About Choosing Wall Papers.
FavOrite ColOrs and New Designs.
Women frequently choose the wall paper
for their sitting rooms to 60 with their
compilations, it is said. A good idea Some
papers, yellowish greens for example,
throw sickly hues over room. These pa
pers are of course destructive to the COM
pleXion. Women who are in the habit Of
consulting their appearance in the glass
know very well that they look much nicer
In some rooms than in others. a celebrated
painter who goes in for wall decoration has
told that lady visitors were often puzzled
TO know why they always looked their best
in his drawing room. They never thought
of tracing the improvement to the walls.
A successful room is in pink of soft, pale
tint Blue is a more popular color and
also more trying Pale greens are expected
TO be in demand shortly. Some very pretty
papers are self colored. These are more
convenient than the highly colored papers,
for you can hang anything against a self
cclored ground. The designs Of the new
papers are many Of them conventional.
For bedrooms chintz effects take best.
The designs of some of these are natural
esque. Unique designs for childrens' rooms
are Alice in Wonderland" Dick Whit
tington" and The House That Jack Built"
with the fable in each case complete.
One of the newest papers for a staircase
or vestibule is taken from an old oriental
design. II has cream colored ground
covered with bold pattern of birds and
flowers. The peacock is the most con-
spicuous figure in the design saw some
fine tapestry papers for the same purpose
that were not gloomy. Red is still the
favorite color for dining room walls. Il IS
warm certainty, but not always restful.
Papers with metal tints are not being used
so freely now. They have reputation for
furnishing. In decorating. the color
icheme Is thought ont beforehand, so that
instead Of getting violent contrasts. the
decoration Of one room only heightens the
Ifect Of another.

The Strong Point. of Vaccination.

The London Lancet sums up the latest
aspects Of the vaccination controversy az
follows: THE one thing we do know il
that vaccine lymph, whatever its origin,
mas been proved TO grant TO people coming
into the closest contact with smallpox pa-
tients an almost immediate immunity
from the disease, and that its incubation
into the arms Of infants has succeeded in
doing away with smallpox among chill
dren- precisely according to the extern TO
which the prophylactic has been used. As
yet these pieces Of overwhelming proof in
favor Of vaccination have not been dealt
with BY the Observation-Disclosures. Indeed.
the points have been almost studiousIy
avoided"

FashionnbIa CoIora.

Rich dahlia tints and reddish heliotropes
are shown in French color cards in six
shades, ranging up to the pale tint of Per
sian hlacs. The best violet shades are very
rich. Clear dark browns are in otter
bronze and coffee brown. More yellowish
browns are tabac and the light bison, castor
and beige shades. The grays are metallic
tlnts-pale silver gray and steel, clear
nickel and dark platinum gray. Bluet
blue and pale turquoise are excellent colors
for millinery; royal blue, the bleu de
France and dark marine are winter colors,
and the gray blues are almost steel color.
A pale china blue is named after Palsy.
and this, with turquoise, viii be much used
to tighten black and the dark brown
shades. Bright Spanish yellow is also
much combined with black. The new
greens are those with blue tints.

Latest Styles in Ribbons.

Plain double faced satin ribbons are the
fashionable trimming for autumn bonnets
and with velvet ribbons will be used
throughout the winter Uncut velvet rib
bons with satin stripes, and large velvet
spots on satin stripes, are very stylish.
Narrow velvet ribbons will remain in favor
Tor strings, and two inch widths for trim
mings. Shot glace velvet ribbons are much
used in Paris. High stiff loops, pointed
ends, long looped bows, and torsades OF
soft folds of piece velvet are on the new
hats. Metal ribbons especially gold and
silver, are used alone or in com bination
with velvet or satin ribbons.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
The Proper Exposure, Air Space. Tenn

Professor Tyson, Of the University Of
Pennsylvania, in lecture delivered re-
Gently before the nurses of the university
hospital, said that no room should be oc-
cupied by a sick person which does not
have an area Of at least LOO cubic feet.
1t should have southern exposure, and
even in summer should receive as much
sunlight as possible Excepting in GER
tain diseases, about which the physicians
should give directions. there should be
plenty OF sunlight admitted to the room all
day.
The furniture and hangings Of the room
should be OF such a nature that they
could be easily cleaned and washed, and
they should be kept in perfectly clean
condition. The constant circulation Of air
IN the room should be prime requirement,
but this should be secured without

No Seizures Were Made.

The Corwin Overhauled No Poachers, and
No Seizures Were Made.
SAN Francisco September 15th-News
has been received in this city that the
United States revenue cutter Corwin has
arrived at Sitka from Behring Sea, with a
report that no poachers were overhauled
and no seizures made.
The Corwin has gained in speed since
going TO Alaskan waters, and now averages
eleven knots an hour. The Corwin will
probably remain in Alaska all this winter.
She will shortly proceed on a cruise
among the various bays and inletS of
Alaska for the purpose of heading off
British whisky smugglers.
Private advices from the northern head
quarters of the poachers give the catches of
several sealers that put in at Victoria with
their skins prior to coming to this port.
The w. L. Rich arrived with 633 skins,
most of which were taken in Behring Sea.
The Rich has the same complaint to
make that other sealers have, namely, that
seals were much scarcer this year than ever
before.
Captain Leary of the Rich reports sight
ing other sealing schooners, as follows: On
August 18th the Pathfinder. which had
1000 skins on board; schooner Ariel, with
oOV ohius, ncdilf Oil CdptureU III DeuIlug
Sea. The Fayorite was seen, and reported
having l. 200 skins. This latter catch is
one of the largest made this season.
Considerable anxiety is felt for the fate of
the sealing schooner Lily. None of the
sealers that have arrived in this city know
anything about her, and did not see her in
the northern waters during the entire sea-
son. The Lily is an American schooner,
and was built in the East in 1851 Though
old, she was considered stanch vessel

His Mind Engrossed Considering Con-
gressional Measures.
CREssoN SPRINGS, September 15th.-li
has been arranged that the river and har-
Dor appropriation bill will be forwarded to
the President Immediately on its being
signed by the Speaker. 1t is not likely
that the public will be kept in ignorance
for many more days in regard to that
measure. Speculation is about evenly
divided as to its prospects, those who are
sure of a veto being about as numerous as
those who are confident of approval.
The President said this morning that if
the weather continues favorable and public
business does not prevent, ne will remain
at Cresson until the end of next week.
There is every reason 10 believe that the
President is seriously considering the ad-
visibility OF calling an extra session of
Congress. 1t is known that several promi-
nent Republicans have advised such a
course, with a view to an earlier cOnsldera-
ton of the Federal election bill Persons
who have talked with the President say be
will certainly reconvene Congress if certain
pending measures in which ne takes great
interest are not disposed of at this session.
These include the nti-lottery bill. the Su-
preme Court bill, the land bill, now in the
Senate, and the postal shipping bill. now
awaiting action in the House.
The President is known to be specially
interested in the passage of the election
bill, and would probably feel justified in
calling an extra session for the considera-
ton of it and such other important meas
ures now pending as may not be disposed
of at this session.
