Some Of the beautiful tiuts IN canary,
tea roses, houcysurklc and corn-yrllow
are even more becoming 20 blondes
than To brunettcs, which is saying
great deal.
The costume d'intericur is of mouse
gray Sicilicnne The cor.agc has n
blouse cut. and is fastened at the waist
by three buttons. The vest is made OF
gold lace.
A French Feashore dress which came
over with one OF our American women,
who went 10 London for the season
and has now returned, was OF most I'M
prctentious homcspun, in shade light
tan color.
Chiffon cannot possibly be in greater
favor. II is now produced in shot eff
fects, one pattern, for instance, being
Of pink shot with pale yellow, with
rather wide selyege of yellow silk,
thus acccntuating that color.
Among the extravagauces Of the
hour Is n necklace OF pierced diamonds,
each stone being strung like bead on
fine wire. The necklace is worn close
at the throat or is twisted as an orna.
ment in the hair.
Dress collars arc worn either very.
very high or they are not worn at all.
There Is really no medium. OF the
high ones, the lowest are two inches
The highest are nine inches in the back
and as high in front as a woman's chin
will permit.
Low-throated dresses are everywhere
worn and large share are collnrless,
with sometimes q bit of passementerie
in points, or band OF ribbon as Il sub.
stitute. Sometimes the void Is lace
filled but many corsagcs are left empty
and unrelieved.
Green and white are much used to
relieve black for day wear, and mauve
and yellow arc the colors chosen for
combining with black net or lace even
ing dresses. Only certain shades of
green, however, unite with black in an
artistic manner for day wear.
IL has become the style TO trim hats
in front underneath the crown brim.
The pancake sailors are all provided
with little crown piece underneath
the brim, and this little false crown Is
used as n vehicle for Displaying fruit,
flowers and folds of br ght material.
AT the present time when metal
trimmings are fashionable, it should
be remembered that it Is difficult to
find any white wool goods on which
gold or liver trimmings may be used
without their becoming furnished.
This is due TO the use Of sulphur In
bleach ng white goods.
New silks delightfully."- cool for gen.

horn hat of generous size, trimmed
with punches and loops OF white gauze
ribbon, was worn with the gown, as
also was large parasol of the yellow
spotted silk, trimmed with .festooned
yellow frills.
Another china silk that had every
thing ats own way, as far as oddity was
concerned, was of u brilliant magenta
color, which, as every one well knows,
makes all colors about 1t appear hid
eous. The girl who wore 1t evidently
knew what she was about, like JOSE
phine Of old. when she sat on that
traditional green sofa in her snowy
gown beside the lrnsuspecting woman
in blue.
She looked very lovely in her'intense"
costume, tulle being wound around
her face and neck in fantastic fashion
of her own that suited her TO perfee-
ton.

A SMART BOY.
How He Saved His Employers Some
Money

How He Saved His Employers Some
Money.
There is a good story going the
rounds about man who has become
q successful merchant. A few years
ago he was employed as an office boy
and messenger for a large firm. He
was sent to collect an account from O
firm which was considered very
"shalSy," and was told to get the
money at all hazards. The debtors
gave the lad cheque for ESQ. He
went to the bank at once to cash it.,
and was told by the cashier that there
were not enough funds to meet it.
Chow much short" asked the lad j.
"Thirty shilings," was the answer.
1t lacked but n minute or two of
the time for the bank to close. The
boy felt in his pockets, took out thirty
shillings, and, pushing it through the
window, said, "Put that to the credit
OF Blank Il Co.
The cashier did SO, whereupon the
boy presented the cheque and got the
money. Blank & Co., failed the next
day, and their chagrin can be better
imagined than described when they
found out the trick that had been
played upon them.

Reciprocity WITH MEXICO.

The appointment Of special Minister Pleni-
notentiary by Mexico to negotiate treaty Oh
Reciprocity with the United States justliies
strong hope that an arrangement can now DO
made which will be mutually advantageous
No other treaty ought to be approved, either by
Mexico or the United States, and it may be as
sumed that no other is desired by the people
Of either country. Whenever one nation gets
the better of another in negotiation OF this
character the results are sure to be unsatis-
factory; within comparatively short time such
q compact is rescinded or radically altered, and
the belief that it will not stand long deprlVes
it of much of the usefulness it might otherwise
possess 1t is to the interest of both nations
that treaties affecting the industries and com
merce of both should be as nearly permanent
as possible, because change of itself always In
wolves evil.
The treaty which was negotiated with Mexico
under President ArthuTs Administration Dy
many was not considered one OF mutual benent
or of such a character that it would be perma-
nent Some of its provisions were regarded as
inconsistent with the National policy OF Pro-
lection. 1t may be fairly said that the ncgotia-
ton will now be reopened under much more
favorable auspices. A deliberate act OF Con
greSs has authorized the Executive in advance
to assent to certain definite arrangements, ana
there will be no necessity for delay, and no
uncertainty as to the action Of Congress, with
respect to any treaty of the nature thus pre-
scribed At the same time, the power OF the
Executive Department in negotiation Is writ
ually limited by the terms of the Act OF 1891, so
that the Mexican Government is advised In ad-
vance that free admission to this country OF
various products which will enter into competi-
ton with products of,American industries cannot
be expected.
Unquestionably important advantages can be
secured for Mexico by Reciprocity Treaty
1t should be one of such mutual benefit that
both countries would be disposed to make it
permanent. The essential prerequisite is that
provisions not in harmony with the policy OF
Protection shall not be considered by either
Government as admissible. A great number OF
the products of this country can be admitted
free of duty by Mexico with advantage to her
people, and nearly all the products which
Mexico has to export are already thus admitted
by the United States. 1t will be brilliant
triumph for the Administration if it succeeds in
completing treaty of this character thus
terminating matter of difference between the
two countries which, ever since the failure Of
the former treaty, has caused some irritation OF

THE BROADWAY MYTH.

It is an interesting controversy which has arisen
,ecently concerning the alleged early street Of
broadway. The curious thing about it, however,
: that the question not taken up earlier:
While we were dcmOshing William Tell and
;uch pauper,myths Of Europe, more interesting
subject of inquiry lay much nearer home. 1t is
,asv for the people Of the old school, who have
lived long in the belief that there was formerly a
street in this city called Broadway to scoh at the
whole question: and say that of course there was
once a Broadway. But this is not argument.
partlsans of William Tell used to scott at the
notion that Tell was myth, but now they are
forced TO admit their error. We believe on the
whole. that the Broadway myth ranks with the
Tell myth Careful inquiry fails to bring to
light any trustworthy historical proof that there
over was thoroughfare in the city called Broad
way.
The believers IN the Broadway myth point TO
tbe great Broadway trench which now extends
longitudinally through the city, as proof that
street OF the same name once extended along the
line of the trench. This is no proof at all. 1t
would be equally logical TO point 10 the Erie Canal
and say that was proof that a great Erie River
once existed along the canal site The
hardest Broadway enthusiast does not do
This The idea that there must have been street
AZ one time along the ditch. ocau5e the buildings
ON either side face it may perhaps be given a
Ii;tle weight, but not much. IL is certainly
far from being direct proof Besides, the build
ngs do not all front on the trench. as witness
