Napoleon,s Counting DAYS.

OF late years royalty has not seemed
inclined to pay much attention to the
detail of dress. The first Napoleon was
great stickler for handsome toilets.
He insisted that Josephine should on
all occasions be splendidly arrayed, and
the two never quarreled except whsn
the empress begged the privilege of lay
ing aside her costly robes for simpler
and more comfortable attire The third
Napoleon was quite as exacting He de-
tested high-cut bodices and short skirts.
His favorite material was red velvet,
and he urged his consort to wear that
material on every appropriate occasion.
Eugenie's courting days were by no
means her happiest. Her feminine as
sociates at Versailles were inordinately
jealous of her and employed every
means to mako her unhappy. One day
the emperor surprised her in tears In
the garden. Questioned closely, the girl
confessed why she was so wretched. Ma
poleon led her gently to where the other
ladies were sitting, and then breaking
spray from bush at hand he fashioned
it into wreath and placed it on her
brow, saying in tones loud enough for
all to hear: "Wear this until place the
other there" The ladies of the court
were shrewd enough to take this royal
hint, and ever after that they were as
gracious as could be.-Eugene Field, in
Chicago News.

A Fashion Writer'S Predictions.

Hoopskirts and one-button gloves are
imminent, says London writer. A
strong fight will be made against the
incoming of the hoop, and as for the
long-wristed mousquetaire or buttoned
Swedish kid glove, it bids fair, spite OF
all opposition, to retain its popularity
throughout this generation. The re-
Election that even the most subservient
followers Of style, in obedience TO the
changes and caprices of fashion, will
ever again consent to the dire and ex-
treme limitations of single-button
glove, after enjoying the comfort and
luxury and grace OF a six or eight-but-
ton, would seem quite impossible; yet
over and over again has history repeated
Itself in this very matter of short and
long gloves, the long-wristed glove and
the gauntlet having been favored and
then discarded by both Kings and
Queens Of centuries past. Z. Post

Pawnbrokers and ssashors.

"This is one of the busiest seasons for
u.s." said a pawnbroker. "You see, the
impecunious young men are now about
to go to the seashore, and they leave with
us all they can dispense with in order to
help defray their expenses while mas
querading down there as wealthy young
men, and angling for young women with
good bank accounts. Just now we have
on hand a very large stock of overcoats,
listers and watches, the advances on
which will find their way in short order
to the tills of the seashore hotel keepers.
Some of these men have been customers
of mine for years, and when see them
come in with their bundles I know that
the season at the seashore has been
opened. When the weather cools up in
the fall they will raise the money in
some manner, and then come in and re-
deem their pledges. ."-Philadelphia In
