LADIES' COLUMN.
FASHIONS IN UNpERLrxEx.

The fashion of the moment is trimming
nnderlincn with narrow insertion,
through which baby ribbon is run. The
collars when turned down should reach
% the shoulders and the wide cuffs al
most to the elbow, being tied with
WIDER ribbon to match the narrow at the
aeck and cuffs. These nightgowns open
the entire length Nth lace and have a
(rill of lace at the hem. They are gener-
ally gathered at the waist, so that they
ook like a full bodice, but of course
without in anyway combining the figure.
Sometimes the cuffs of nightgowns arc
made straight, turned upward, with
double hem of silk or batiste or some
positive color joined on to the white
with narrow veining insertion. Occa-
nonally the color is introduced as small
embroidered forets worked in fax
threads. Very full frillings, with but
tonhole of color at the edge, are put on
almost as full as the lisse frills on para
soils. Nightgowns are made with pretty
outside pockets on the left side, and the
monogram or initials are often placed on
a shield-shaped device.-Ne'0 York

Sending Grapes to Market.

Long professions of fruit wagons can
be seen during the grape season in MARI
borough, Highland, Milton, New-Paltz,
and other Southern Ulster villages in
New York on their way to steamboat
landings and railroad stations. They are
loaded with grapes, and many tons Of that
luscious fruit are shipped daily. The
grapes are cut in the vineyards in the
forenoon. They are collected together,
and then comes the packing and prepar-
ing for ma rket The fruit is placed in
wooden baskets, which are said to hold
five, six, eight, ten and fifteen pounds
each. When the fruit is packed the
cluster is denuded of every green and
dried berry, and no one but an experc
packer can put in basket the number Of
pounds Of grapes which the package calls
for, and even they do not always succeed,
as the grape baskets are not unlike berry
cups in the matter of deception as 10
size.
Some of the fruit baskets are male in
Ulster county, but the best packages come
from Western manufacturers, who seem
to employ the toughest wood, and the
packer is put to no loss by the breakage
of handlers, ETC. The baskets are sold to
growers at 1913 per 1000, and $4,000
empty packages can be placed in one
freight car. The handles are not put on
when the packages are made, so that they
fit into one another and can thus be put
into small sp &c. The labor-saving de-
vices save much work in preparing the
fruit for market.
Those growers who invested money in
spraying machines are in good spirits and
see no great piles of rotten grapes in their
vineyards, as was the case last year. Some
of these spraying machines cost the grow
ers $50. They consist of a barrel mounted
on wheels, to which is attached power
full force pump. The driver sits in the
rear Of the barrel and uses one hand to-
work the pump. There arc two sprays on
each side as the horse is driven up and
DOM through the vineyard, and much
work can be accomplished in short time.

Oysters in London.

In a recent interesting article upon oys
tercuture, the marquis of Lorne very
cogently asked why oysters cost 81 OF
ST. a dozen in London while they can
be purchased for about half the price in
Paris The explanation, as Lord Lorne
pointed out, is that our English oyster
beds produce only fraction of the con-
sumption, although our own shores, prop
erly prepared could produce oysters in
enormous quantities. Hitherto British
enterprise has not been directed toward
this remunerative industry, says st.
James Budget, but has left it in the
hands of few fishermen and ancient
corporations on the Essex and Kentish
coasts, who lack both capital and scien-
tifc knowledge. How probable oyster
breeding may become when well man.
aged may be imagined from the fact tina
the only OUTLAY consists in preparing a
a stretch Of suitable foreshore with tiles,
bricks, shells, etc, to provide a resting
place for the spat or baby oyster. 1t is
estimated that one oyster pro luces from
one to three million young, so tn if
only a very small proportion be SCI dred
the labor expended is most beautifully
repaid. The average wholesale price OF
native oysters this year has been So per
100. Taking the value of the product
of one tile at the lowest figure the result
would be 81. 25, and the tiles being laid
one on the other in semblance of an open
wall, 30, 900 tiles per acre is not an exag
gerated number. 1t would thus seem
that with capital and enterprise the
national production of oysters would
largely increase, while the price woul 4
naturally fall.

LINCoLNs MELANCHOLY.
His pathetic Nature and His Early
Tlafor.uuea

Misforfunes.
Those who saw much Of Abraham Lincoln
during the later years Of hts life, were greatly
impressed with tho expression OF profound
melancholy his face always wore in repose
Mr.. Lincoln was OF peculiarly sympathe-
tic and kindly nature. These strong charac-
teristics influenced, very happily, rs Il proved,
his entire political career. They would not
seem, at frst glance, to be efficient aids 10
political SUCCESS; but in tho peculiar emer-
gency which Lincoln, in the providence of
God wss called to meet, no vessel Of COM
mon clay could possibly have become the
chosen Of the Lord"
Those acquainted with him from boyhood
knew that early griefs tinged his whole life
with sadness. His partner In the grocery
business at Salem, was "Uncle" Billy Green,
OF Tsllula, ILL.,, who used at night when the
customers wsro few, to hold the grammar
while lincoln recited his lessons.
1t was to sympathetic ear Lincoln told
the story OF his love for sweet Ann Rutlidgs;
and he, In return, offered what comfort he
could when poor Ann died, AMI Lucoln's
great heart nearly broke.
After Ann died" says "Unclen Billy, ION
stormy nights, when the wind blew tie rain
against the roof, Abe would set thar in the
grocery his elbows on bis knees, his face in
his hands, and the tears 'runnin' through his
myers. 4 nRled 10 see nun feel DAD, an III
say, Abe don't cry;' and he'd look up an
say, 4 can't help it, Bill, the rains a falIin'
on her."
There are many who can sympathizs With
this overpowering grief, as they think of a
lost loved one when the rains falin' on
her." What aids poignancy to the grief
sometimes Is the thought that the lost one
might have been saved
Fortunate, indeed, is William johnson, OF
Corona L. l., a builder, who writes June %,
$780, Last February, on returning from
church one night, my daughter complained
Of having pain in her ankle. The pain
gradually extended until her entire limb was

ination, pronounced 1t disease Of the XII ineys

Punched hands went out Of fashion with
cramped feet.
Shade hats of colored horse hair are
trimmed with ribbon bows, long pins and
a feather pompon.
For shoes there is a soft kind OF leather
called "velvet calf, which comes in a
number of shades.
Spots and dots will be in high favor
this fall. They are universally liked.
The dots are in wide intervals and larger
than polka dots.
New riding boots there are, the foot
part made in patent leather, and the up
pers and leg in a soft kind Of morocco,
which is very cool and flexible.

battle charges and sufTerings as intense as
the world ever saw. Saladin in Jerusalem,
hearing Of the sickness of King Richard, his
chief enemy, sends him his own physician,
and from the walls OF Jerusalem. seeing King
Richard afoot, sends him a horse. With all
the world looking on the armies OF Europe

At the first glimpse of the city they fall on

Through its gates may we all enter when our

wnMEN's FOOT WEAR.

Dancing slippers that make the ice'
look small are of black kid, with a
beaded bow, and ankle-strap having 8
buckle.
Moliere shoes, with high flap and
s,uare toes, are much worn in both tan
and black leather, and always matched
in color by the silken lacy stockings
worn. Another pretty shoe for evening
wear is called the Charles TX, and comes
only in black satin, to be worn With
black silk stockings with lace fronts.
The street shoe par excellence has q
cloth top, kid vamp, patent leather tip
and trimming, an extension sole and
opera toe and heel.
The ooze leather which enters into 3
large proportion of the fashionable foot
wear is a heavier quality of the same ma.
terial of which undressed kid gloves are
made.
At present the most fashionable fad in
shoes is an oxford tic of ooze leather Of
the color which prevails either in the
gown or its trimming. These shoes
have ribbon a quarter OF an inch in
width, a shade lighter than the shoe,
stitched at half-inch intervals, strap
fashion, across the vamp. These shoes
are alike fashionable for house, carriage
or street wear.
The latest wrinkle which has attached
itself to shoes is to have them of per-
fumed leather, which, when warmed by
the weerer's feet, exhales delicious,
spicy odor.
Cloth foxings of various cOlors, with
patent leather vamps, arc male both in
high and low shoes. Oozc leather tops,
in different colors, with patent leather
vamps, are also much used.

Pineapple Culture in Florida.

The pineapple thrives in southern
Florida, and it is reported that its cul-
tivation is being extended very rapidly,
and will soon become an important in
dustry, especially in the region known
as southeastern Florida. Where the
climate and soil are both favorable the
pineapple is said to be very profitable.
There are limited areas in southern Cal
ifornia where the pineapple will thrive,
but we have no report Of its extended
cultivation in that state. The plants
will not bear frosts, although few cool
nights will not hurt them, provided they
do not freeze. New York Sun.

SHAMPOO PARTIES.

A new form of morning entertainment
made its appearance at Bar Harbor' Me-,
this season, and, having gained foot
ing at that place, it will probably not be
long in becoming popular at the other
resorts of fashion and wealth. Men see
and appreciate the hairdresser's work
when it is we'll done upon the head OF
beautiful girl, but they do not stop to
think what an lawful bore it must be
to the girl to sit for an hour With no as
sociate other than prating professional
bair-dresser or a feather-brained ladys
maid. Girls of to-day do net like that
sort of thing and the intention OF the
shampoo party or hair-dressing party is
the immediate result. Cards for this new
sort of social function read about as fol-
lows:
