AnA AOseS are massed outside on the crown.
Many street gloves are made with small
shallow gauntlets, as being especially con-
venlentfor wear with the present make of
sleeve. The sweet-scented Russia kid is
seen quite often. and if imitation be the sim

than mediocre copies.
There are new silk gloves that are a bit
startling. The fourchettes, that is the pieces
at the sides OF the fingers, are in contrasting
colors, SO that black glove may have yell
low fourchettes, or vice versa. The stitch
ing on the back OF the glove is in the
second tone. Black aud red, gray and
white and fawn and white are snowy.
There are legions of cravat styles. Lawn.

and fall as sashes. Their width admits of
much variety of adjustment, a few orna-
mental pins converting them into elegant
corselets, or again into graceful capes. The
long capes reaching to the knee make ex-

A white wool, lined with pale-green silk,
had a jabot trimming made by sewing six
inch lengths OF narrow white MORE ribbon
crosswlse upon supporting strip of crino-
line. teach end of the ribbon hung a tiny
white silk ball. This trimming ran ali

idea, and also gauze fichus, edged with

The latter are warm, and what the children

and ribbon ruches.
A woman Of this city. says the New York
Times, has recently had several interesting
leaves OF the book of human nature turned
for her. Having plenty of leisure, she has
endeavored to do philanthropic work as op-
portunities presented. Not long ago one
seemed to be in the case of young woman
confined in jail and accused of the doing
away with an Legitimate child. She was
said to be friendless, penniless, and almost
without clothes. So this amateur philan-
thropist visited her, finding a weak, frivo-
lous, rather pretty girl, not out of her teens.
She promised her some clothes at once, and
left her IS to use as occasion required
The girl thanked her and asked her In
making the purchases to please send pair
of corsets, size 20, and pair of shoes, No.
70. Fancy 30 corsets going with the No.
shoesl The history of the misguided girl
is in the combination. The things asked
for were sent, however, and a few DAYS
later the girl wrote a letter to her bene-
factress, asking that certain food delicacies.
coffee. white sugar, and the like, be ordered
for her and sent to the jail, to be paid for
out of the money she had left herl This
experience has had rather a depressing
effect upon one woman's budding philan>
thropy.
A Paris correspondent of London Jour
nal, says the New York Herald, is having
his fling at what he terms San American
parvenu," who has ''had the bad taste to
wear the diamond necklace once owned by
Empress Eugene to recent ball given by
Princess Bonaparte"-a proceeding which
the correspondent seems to think was an eff
fort to demonstrate that she, "the Ameri-
can parvenu,n had gold galore, while the
Bonapartes had lost throne and power.
This was probably not at all true. 1t is
doubtful if the woman who thus thought
lessly offended had any intention beyond
doing honor to her hostess fete by wearing
her richest and Frenchiest jewels. These
throne worshippers are too sensitive.
1t is seldom, indeed, SAYS the New York
Sun, that even the plainest woman has not
one physical charm, which, carefully cults
waited, will make her attractive. The expert
ence of certain very plain New York girl
is case in point. This girl used to look at
herself in mirror and frankly acknowledge
that she was far from lovely. No feature
was delicate, and her coloring was common

whole season when one night man said to
her that she had an original and graceful
gait. She was thrilled 1t was really the
first honest compliment she had ever
received. She thought it over and then
went to work TO discover what it
was in her walk that called forth
the admiration of the man. She soon
learned that it was a slight swagger, an in

The girl with the crumpled hair ia very

Press. And nine times out of ten she is
