Embroidered galloon. The front portion
Of the skirt is in very finely pleated silk
crepe of the same delicate gray tone.
The hat is early French in shape, and
serves to accentuate the delicate contour
Of face and head. 1t will be noted that
the SLEEVES of this dress, as in fact of
each Of the three costumes worn by Miss
Papillon, are not very bouffant or set
very high on the shoulders. It is point
to be borne in mind, and may be con-
6dently accepted as hint from one who
knows, that the days of the exaggerated

CHAPTER xxx.
pREpARING ZOE rHE rRAGEnY.

PREPARING FOR THE TRAGEDY.
Mildred Lester and her devoted friend
and constant companion, Clara Denton,
did not spend all their time in New
York. Scarcely a week passed during
which they did not visit Claras home in
Roxbury, for a day, at least, and often
times when they returned to the city,
Edith Denton, who was rapidly develop
ing into lovely young woman, would
accompany them.
The great specialist was assiduous in
his attentions on Mildred. and almost at
every visit emphatieally declared that the
time was now close at hand when all
that she had ever lost would be restored
to her.
Thus far the past had come back to her
gradually, but in the doctors opinion
the complete restoration of her faculties
would be instantaneous, and probably
brought about by some great and sudden
shock.
Warren Leland, who had now attained
the object of his ambition and was a
member of Congress, was interchangeable
in his attentions to the two ladies.
Whether they were in New York or Rox-
bury, he too was there, and at last the
devoted Clara had the desire of her soul
gratifed, his affections were wholly trans
ferred to Mildred, and abruptly, one even
ing, he asked her to be his wife, and was
accepted
>
retained the warmest regard for Clara
Denton, he almost idoliZed Mi1dred-felt
for her a love, a passion, which even the
beautiful and royal Clara had never in
spired, and he could not bear to be absent
from her side even for day.
Under these circumstances he urged
that the marriage should take place with
the least possible delay, and after some
deliberation an early day was set, and
preparations for the interesting event
were begun in earnest.
And now Edith became a very impor-
tant parsonage. Her services were re-
/ quired by her mother and Mildred from
early dawn till latest eve. Everybody
called upon her for assistance. She be-
came female Mercury, and her face was
soon as we'll known in the great dry goods
establishments as those of the proprietors
themselves.
More than once in her excursions she
had met a lovely young lady, several
years her senior, but with the sweetest
! yet sadest face, she thought she had ever
seen.
One day, in Marcey's she saw this lady
in conversation with the physician who
attended Mildred, and at once intimated
! to him that she should like an introduce
ton.
He responded promptly.
Miss Fielding" he said, permit me to
| make you acquainted with my charming
| young friend, Miss Edith Denton. Miss
| Denton, this is Miss Fielding. She will
tell you presently that her name is Mets
Fielding. I am really pleased, young
ladies, that through me you two should
/ become known to each other"
No more pleased than am, exclaimed
Edith, heartily. Il have wanted to make
her acquaintance ever since first saw
her, and am glad you were the medium
through which my desire has been
gratified.
SO you really wanted to know me
dear2" asked Meta, In pleased tone.
Yes, indeed, I did, answered Edith
emphatically.
And was most anxious to make you

woman never indClges In tricks with
color even to save herself from being OBJ
liberated for the moment by some gaudy
creature in crimson and gold, buzzing
about like Hamlet's- gilded waterfiy.
"Do you know the lady in that crimson
jacket heavily embroidered in gold?" I
inquired of a certain cynical male friend
of mine at the Newport Casino.
mo. I don't know the lady, was his
reply, "but l met the jacket last winter
in Paris, at the Chat Noir-"
So far as l can learn, Queen Fashion
intends to take leaf from the book of
nature this autumn. She Queen FASH
ion, not Dame Nature) has made a great
discovery, discovery which is almost as
startling as that of the bourgeois, gem
tilhomme who was so astonished to learn
that he had been talking prose all his
life. Well this discovery of Queen Fash
ion is that animals wear their fur all the
year round, and now she is asking her
self why shouldn't we do as they do
Hence, you may look out for an early
appearance of all kinds of fur trimming.
1t will no longer be question of weather,
but simply OF taste as TO, the kind and
manner of using it. Several early au-
tumn dresses have a narrow strip of
fur at the bottom and neckband
Of fur. The only objection to
this early use of fur about the throat is
that it will render that already dread
fully impressionahle part of the body
still more susceptible to, draughts and
changes in the atmosphere; but such. g.
little matter as that must not be per-
mitted to stand in the way of our follow
ing the fashions. Said celebrated
Grecian statesman lawgiver: "If men
would conform to my statutes with the
same blind obedience with which women
follow the fashions of the day, 1 could
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1890-10-23
govern the whole world as easily as now

govern the whole world as easily as I now
govern Athens"
It is predicted that costumes of velvet
and plush trimmed with fur are to be
very popular the coming season. The
plain tight skirt calls loudly for fur bor-
ders, just as it did for frills, founces and
pleatings during the summer. Fur, too,
will no doubt be a favorite garniture
for cloaks and wraps this fall. The
Medicis collar has already made it's ap-
pearance on fur capes and it imparts q
great deal of style to these garments.
Long wraps will be much affected, and
these will have the overcape, which adds
so much to such garments.
Turning for moment to headgear, I
may say that the small capote is to
maintain its vogue this coming season.
Gray and dark-blue will be favorite col
ors for these tiny head-coverings, made
up in velvet with the indispensable pOuf
set off by small birds in piQuant and
bizarre attitudes. The domed capotes,
covered smoothly with velvet, are very
becoming to some heads. These are also
made of cut jet beads, of the olive shape,
arranged In squares and lined with black
lace, little bouillonne of pink,
turquoise-blue velvet running around
the edge, and a blackbird Or sheaf
of black aigrette in front The
dull pinks, citron yellow, Pompeian
brown, jay-blue and nickel-gray will be
modish colors for headgear. The Wig
orous protests of the Audubon Society
only seem to whet the taste for birds on
our hats. Even the wise and solemn
owl has been pressed into service and
will glare from the heads of our women
at such men as may exceed the limits OF
discretion in their attentions to ladies in:
public places. The owl ought to become
very great favorite with the Boston
girl, being the chosen bird of Minerva,
goddess of wisdom, whereas the vain and
frivolous New York woman might adopt

A SERIOUS 0UEsTION,


A Methodist Episcopal church in Lowell
(MassachusettS has decided to use water
instead of wine in the communion service
hereafter. The impulse toward the change
was given by one of the members, who said
that before his conversion he had been a
drunkard and had twice fallen into his old
habits through the temptation placed in his
way at the communion table. The minister
who heard this statement said he could never
pass the wine to that brother and was inclined
to use water instead for the service. Other
members approved that course and it was
adopted by unanimous consent.
This action will be approved by many who
hear or read about 1t. Many man who has
been striving to be sober Christian has been
much troubled by the church wine cup. If
We are not mistaken John B. Cough used to
keep away from the communion service, and
many an honest man has found 1t danger.
The Worcester Spy we'll says: All Protestant
churches agree that the substance used in the
sacrament of the Lords supper is a symbol
only, of no Importance in itself. A depart
ure from ancient custom as to the character
of the liquid used as symbol may well
seem less Objectionable than by sdhering tc
It to make Christian sacrament an over.

WORTH THINKING OF.

P. T. Barnum is a man of ideas, and he
understands "the show business" thorough
ly. Therefore suggestions from him con-
cerning the attractions" of the worlds fair
at Chicago are valuable. He would have q
congress of American races with specimens
of the peculiar dwellings of each among the
attractions. The display at the late French
exposition of the habitations of all races was
among the most interesting, instructive and
If to the habitations be added the people
themselves, of course the exhibit would be
much more complete and valuable in every
sense. The two continents of North and
South America furniah great number of
curious and peculiar races, and at~such an
exposition as this is to be a collection repre-
senting them all would be peculiarly appro-
pirate. Professor Putnam of Harvard seconds
the old showman's motion as follows:
In many cases a hsbitation and all
It contained could be secured aud
brought away, to be re-erected
would have TO be made; and In many cases,
where the change of civilized conditions has
taken place, the older inhabitants of the
tribe would have to be induced to build such
habita.ion as their fathers lived In, while
from all, by study and much hard labor,
there would have to be secured all things
possible relating to the customs and arts of Q
people before contact with the white race
had changed their ways of life. With large
proportion of the American tribes the pres

when 1t was possible.
The idea Is good one. No more interest
