White wells are the mode. They are
worn at all hours of the day, and are
frequently accompanied by white gloves
and shoes. They are embroidered all

oped edges.
One of the fads of the late summer is
a rolling chamois collar In the natural
color pinked about the edge. With this
is worn gloves to match. Both collar

are drawn from all sources, artistic al

very best ideas of the past, modified by
the cultivated and advanced tastes as
well as the practical demands of the
present. 1t is now almost impossible
that this or that is the fashion in any
sense of limitation. because there is
hardly limit to the boundary lines
now under the vast dominion of la
mode.-Chicago Post.

Divide Musin's exquisite performances on
the violin. As easily could we paint the

effort of words the delicate notes Of the
knocking bird as heard in its native grove.
At one moment the eves of his audience are
almost illed with tears, at another the
pulse of all present seemed to tingle with
delight.
From the soothing, gentle lullaby OF a
gentle mother over her infants cradle down
to the deep diapason of old ocean as the
surf beats wildly on the beach, all possible
sounds were represented. At one
the instrument used by this great artist
seemed to Shrek with agony, n then
again in soft. delicious. gentle strains
reminded one of n soul unstnined by sin
