My sister learned TO make pictures, too,
when she was TO Brooklyn last winter, said
the daughter Of Long Island farmer to the
Ne" York Tribune writer, floating out 10
a loose Mother Hubbard gown and sun
bonnet to inspect the work of one of Mr.
C-s 'pleln air" students, but she doesn't
do them like yon bit; it's ever so much
quicker. Why she Jest lays a paper on any
thing and srnears it off with u wet rag and
there 1t Is oil done in colOrs, and it's real
beautiful. And you kin tell just what it is
TOO" she added, looking at the impress
slonist" style OF the sketch with evident dis
favor, while the amused artist realized that
the fair Phyllis was describing decalco-
mania.
Another good lady who took i'm board
ers, and who, with her daughter, cooked
and waited at the table and did the rooms
of dozen or more OF city folk" said sym
pathetically to an enthusiastic young artist:
at must be real hard worx to hev to sit in
them dirty fields all day said to Mr. Hay

Apropos of autumn weddings, saws the
New Y ork Times, here are q few hints: 1t
is simply vulgar to wear an engagement
ring or, indeed, any other ring on the first
finger the third and fourth alone being the
ring fingers. The engagement ring should
be placed on the third finger of the lett
hand until just before the marriage cere-
mony, when it should be transferred to the
corresponding finger on the right hand, the
wedding ring taking its place on the left.
l an engsg enent bracelet is presented it
is TO be worn on the left wrist; but as this
form Of betrothal is merely passing fad
the woman of moderate means will hardly
care to adopt it, since the bracelet will soon
be hopelessly out of date, while ring can
always be worn.
There is no reason las some appear to
think why a country bride should not wear
"a trained dress and veil. GAdeed, as q girls
wedding is the most note worthy happening
in her life, the possible extravaganza of q
long white gown and veil should surely lie
forgiven her.
The wedding dress should not be changed
for the travelling costume until just before
the brides departure; and she who is duly
cOnsiderate of her newly made husbands
feelings will not choose a "going away"
g lwn that proclaims to oil beholders by its
faultlessly new Appearance, that its wearer
is bride
The bridegroom supplies the flowers car
ried by the bridal party, and congratula-
tions are only offered to him, the bride
being wished all happiness instead. If a
toast is offered the bride at the wedding
breakfast a smile and bow from her are all
the response necessary.
A wedding present should be sent to the
bride at leas: day before the wedding.
The giver's card should, of course, be in
closed.
1t is not necessary to acknowledges we'd
ding invitation. If the reception is in the
evening it is not good form to attend in
street attire.
A young woman may attend a wedding
without au escort if acc )mpanied by her
chaperon.
There are some handsome designs Just
now in silk hosiery. One pair recently ex-
hibited was of pink silk with vertical stripes
of silver. Another was of black silk, with
All intricate design worked in cut steel beads
upon them. Almost all the finest hosiery is
now being embroidered or finished with
some kind of raised work, as the fancy for
plain ones has been given up long ago.
A caprice of the minute. says the Repub
Tic, that may or NAV no5 last is to have the
two sides ot the hat entirely unlike as, for
instance, on ole-half a close covering of
wavy ostrich feathers. on the other huge
bow Of rich ribbon.
Scotch twee1s, like the poor, we have
always y ith u.s. There is an unusual beauty
in those got ready for this season. The
flv3rite cream grounds, with neat broken
checks. are in full force. Besides, there are
beige grounds, with narrow red and blue
lines. and large, almost invisible, plaids upon
ldlIlll1I ilGutIdA RIOuuuo.
Much red is seen, 700. in the soft, warm,
woody homespuns. Many, also. are well
mixed with blue. Some fanciful patterns
of both stuffs are touched with coral and
yellow. They are neither so smart nor 50
tasteful as the qu.eter sorts. " omen of
limited income should religiously eschew
them, as, indeed, they should ali stuffs
that make bizarre or noted garments. The
pleasant people who keep long memories
for the torment of their friends" will be
apt lough to recognize your goAn or
your ulster as an old familiar friend with
out help of spots or streaks or splsshes or
or snowfiakes that recall Joseph's many
colored coat or Jacobs ring-streaked cattle.
Among the best new woolers are the shot
reps in two colors-as blue and red. red and
green. They are very soft, fine of rib, and
wear wonderfully. Wooden corduroy is
also shot. A new weave, very fine and
firm, has lengthwise cords, with a crepey
sur ace over them. In another the lines
form chevrons all over. Very striking
dagona.s have weaved silk lines OF color
contrasting with the ground, as, for in
stance, green with heiiosrope or electric
blue with black or chestnut. Another new
wool has a smooth sateen surface powdered
ali over with hearts or darts or interaced
rings in a color strongly contrasting with
the ground.
The newest silk is brocade Of very large
pattern, thick and rich enough to stand
alone. 1t Is mostly made up into princess
WINS, either half or full-tralned, and
smothered il lace. Partisan Rranddames.
though, now and again venture upon deep
pointed tabliers, with small PAINTERS over
the hips.
Jackets are either close or half-fitting.
