petition and the great monumental folly
known as the interstate commerce law,
a legislative joke with whiskers on it, a
local gag to get votes and break up bust
ness, have made dividends small What
we are pleased to call politics in America

started out to say, however, that the
new northwest, and especially the Puget
sound country, is the great country.
Half a dozen cities are growing up like
asparagus in the moist London air of the
sound. The prosperity of one does not
hurt the prosperity of another. The more
business there Is for the sound the better it
is for all. Nearly all the transcontinental
roads are already there. Five railways
at least are represented. and Asiatic trade
will soon turn that way. The Northern
Pacific, with its Wisconsin Central,
makes direct connection with Chicago,
and so successfully completes with any
other transcontinental road. The scenery
on either road IS poor enough, think,
and the corporation that banks on its
views is doing a poor business. A tun-
mel especially is a disappointment You

get there, and when you arrive how sad
you are. The kerosene lamps smoke all

is doing her little housewifely duties, for
madame Is very saving, and though our
cooking is proverbially good. we save all
our fine clothes out Of less money than
an American or English woman would
spend on the table or waste.
Then we have our shopping, or early
morning, dress Of dark but serviceable
goods, and our carriage or visiting tot
lets, and lastly. our dinner. opera. recep-
ion and ball dresses. OF course this en-
tails much labor, but does not the re-
suit pay for it2
1t has become quite style with Us to
have our dancing dresses very simple as
compared with those of a season or so
ago. and they are short. Just clearing the

as for us we always prefer to go about
our salons in the morning and dust off
our dainty little bric-a-brac and take a
careful look through our kitchens and
larders before we dress for the prone
made or for the forenoon, and so madame
in her negige is one Of our most COM
mon sights, only it is true no one but
her family sees her. But every French
lady holds it as duty to be as neat and
cOquettish as she can make herself.
Even your washerwoman will be neat
and trim. There is no going about in
slipshod shoes and curl papers for a
French woman; no soiled or untidy gar
ments for her 1t is almost religion to
be neat to the point Of cOquetry, and
am French enough to believe fully in
that religion.
So madame wears a pretty striped
flannel dress, or even it may be calico or
Saline or challis, but it is made prettily.
OF course she wears bracelets and rings,
but she wears a dainty little cap and car
ries her buster, but she never wears an
apron. To her that is badge of service.
Only the bonnes, the flower sellers and

needs reform. It is strange, TO say the
least of it, that the mistress should be
entitled to have a written and formal
character of the servant and that the
servant, to whom the situation is every
thing that is most important in life,
should have no formal opportunity given
h5r, of juding of the situation, of hear
ing of the character of the household.
This, which common justice demands,
could be easily rsmeded without any ex-
ira machinery by the following plan:
Every mistress should choose referee,
or two referees, among her servants.
past or present, who have been with her
not less than two years; she should give
the names and addresses of these two ref
ereeS to the servant whom che is inclined
to engage before she writes for her char
aCter from her last mistress. l cannot
imagine any reasonable objection to this
plan. II carried largely into practice it
could become the test of any theory about
domestic service.
Mistresses could then gather statistics
and make CONGRATULATIONS as to the situa-
tons which were most highly recon-
mended and most sought after by the
best aud most competent servants. 1t
might also put spirit INTO the custom of
character giving, which is SAID by some
to be so formal. Personally, / have
never found it SO. It puts vast amount
of irresponsible power into the hands of
one falIible human being; and, though l
think it may rarely be abused, 1t adds
tremendously to the unnecessary and
injurious dependence of servants. - Mrs.

With no violence to correct rendering
asthetIcism in the domain of woman
might be translated absurdIty. 1t
would be matter of surprise If careful
record was kept of all the fads, and If
all could be done that is persisted by the
preachers of this gospel, and the disci-
pies would find q day of twenty four
hours too short. That, with time spent
with HAIR dresser, manicure, face beau
tifier, form improver, chiropodist, DEL
sarte, etc., etc. there would be no time
between baths and treatment to enjoy
life. Then too, the extremists make
bondsmen of those min!stering in mate
rial things, ana life becomes more of
struggle than comfortable existence
eXacts.
This bit of moralizing hiss been in
duced by reading a sentence in which the
writer says, each woman should adopt q
perfume adapted to her style. There is
no arrangement given, but it is fair to
suppose that the woman OF tlorid COM
plexiou would use "mille fleurs;' she
that Is frail and colorIess, "white lily"
Exactly where Jockey club would fit In
and other odors OF fancy names is not so
clear, but we suppose astheticism is
We will return TO bounets.
Itis approaching the time when sum-
mer bOnnets will disprove that a thing of
beauty is q JOY forever; just three months
ia the limit aud JOY departs. Already
there are hints of autumn and winter
gloves. II is SAID that brown will be q
favorite color and felt a favorite mate
rial. Felts will be principally in light
CnlorS md of shaDes innumerable many
of them bordering on the fantastic. A
heart-sbaped white felt is shown with
wide brim in front arranged in q very
attractive manner, a long ostrich feather
shaded with deep petunia TO palest mauve
filling the flaring brim. Other feathers
in the same lovely coloring soften and
conceal the outline of the crown, and
droop over the hair at the back in q yerv
graceful style. Ostrich feathers are sure
TO be much worn, but ribbon, especially
the velvet-lined, will prove q formida-
BILE rival in hat trimming and will be
wider than the past season. Strings are
not to be worn, as boas and cuffs do not
admit OF their use. The style of neck
wear also necessitates combing the hair
well up on the head, and is now dressed
with very few ornaments.
The styles for dresses thus far shows
little change, fashion seems to be pre-
ferring evolution rather than rapid de-
velopment. In the earlier autumnal
months lace will be still used on every
thing, i'll white as well as black, In skirt
flounces and tichus, forming long point
In front and around the arms in the back
like Figaro jacket.
A form of trimming that is sure to be a
