CHAT ON FASHION.

Crabbe, quaint writer of .poesy, who
lived in the latter half of the Eighteenth
century, discoursed on many topics and did
not omit from the list that one to which
this space is usually devoted. He causticly
says:
Fashion. though folly child and guide of fools
Rules cen the wisest. and in learning rules
From crowds and courts to wisdom 5 seat she
goes
And reigns triumphant DER her mother foes.
If the poets estimate of the extent of
fashions sway is correct, there is no occa-
sion for apology if the readers of this de-
partment look in fashions glass and seek
TO know what 2ew conceptions are reflected
there, for if the ''wisest" are ruled by
folly child then ordinary mortals must
expect to be her subjects and to concede
that science, philosophy and reform oftener
gain hearing and converts when garments

NOTES..

Black satin is used for high full sleeves
in lace gown.
\ novelty in coats is black blazer with
rolled collar and scalloped edges all around.
Big rosettes on opera slippers are again
in style. and they make the feet smaller by
contrast.
Spanish jackets. real or simulated by an
outline of galloon or embroidery, are as
popular as ever.
This season a fancy crops out for long
chains worn about the neck and hanging
loosely over the bust.
The newest long frocks for babies are
made all in one-simply gathered into 4
square yoke, without any attempt At detln-
ing the waist
Slender garlands of flowers are placed
around the upper edge of half open bodices
for dresSy evening wear, or are set Gla9on-
ally across the chest and bordering the ex-
IRENE edge of the sheath skirt.
The Recamier waist crossed upon the left
side is generally made up in wash dresses,
and sometimes the entire gown is shirred
upon tight-fitting lining. at least six mar
row shirrs shaping the waist, the shoulders
being fitted in the same manner.
The fabrics most used for blouses and
shirt waists are made of fancy surahs, wash
silks, French flannel and percale, but for
midsummer wear they are also being made
of finest linen lawn. embroidered muslin,
crepe de chine and India silk daintily but
tonholed and embroidered on the fronts,
collar and cuffs.
Many OF the bodices for slender, youthful
wearers are sharply pointed. and fasten
under the arm, or else in the back folds, or
passementerie trimmings cover the darts,
or else the bodice lining alone has darts,
with the outside laid in close surplice
pleats. The sleeves are full, but not so
high in effect as in the early spring.
The number of different sleeves worn this
year is marvellous. They are almost as
varied as the dress materials, yet when
studied they are found to be the outgrowths
of the Valois sleeve familiarized to us by
portraits of Catherine de Medici, and seen
also quite as often in masculine as in femi-
nine portraits of that effeminate epoch.
This style of sleeve. close on the lower arm
and wide and high at the top, is used on
any and all costumes, and for jackets,
wraps, tea gowns and even night-dresses.

A FASHIONABLE RIDING HABIT.
ing collar and lapels, disclosing scarf at
the neck and cut away at the waist to show
light waistcoat, is another popular style.
A completely new habit bodice is double
breasted, with low revers, showing a tie,
and in lieu of the ordinary short basque an
elongated one, like a mans dress coat,
dividing up the center. so that it falls easily
in place on the saddle. This has found
much favor with English equestriennes.
Whatever the style of habit bodice may be
the riding skirt remains scant, closely fit
ted at the top and barely long enough %
touch the floor when the wearer is on her
feet
Ladies are permitted choice between the
silk riding hat and a Derby hat of felt. The
silk hat this season has a slightly bell
shaped crown, with the brim curving mar
row at the sides. The gloves are of goat or
doe skin and fasten with four buttons.
New York women for the most part ride
in top boots of patent leather, the riding
trousers being made in form of knicker-
bockers. Long trousers may, however, be
worn with ordinary walking shoes, when
it is desired to economic, as the boots es-
pecially made for equestrians are expensive.
In this connection it may be well to ex-
plain that the question Of cross saddle
riding for women, which was agitated some
months ago, was settled by the Princess of
Wales, who considered it immodest.

HOUSEWIFE HINTS.

The fashionable way to eat an orange at
table is to cut it in half and dig out with
a spoon"
Strawberries, like ice cream. so fashion
DEGREES, should be eaten with fork never
with spoon.
New tins should be set over the fire with
boiling water in them for several hours be-
fore food is put into them.
To remove rust from knives cover the
blades with sweet on for 4 day or two and
then rub with lump of fresh lime
The unpleasant smell in newly painted
apartments may be lesSened by setting
pals of fresh water around on the floors.
After cleaning closets sprinkle bOrax
around the edges of the shelves and floor
and you will rot be troubled with reaches
there.
To melt chocolate. break it in few
pieces, then melt it in a small dish set in the
top of the teakettle; it is not necessary to
CRATE 1t.
a cheap disinfectant is made by dissolv-
ing pound of copperas in two gallons of
boiling water, and sprinkling it whenever
required
Hot cakes, pies. etc, need not be re
moved from the pans in which they are
baked. if precaution is taken to set them up
on small supports, so that the air can circu-
late under them. This effectually prevents
the moisture from steam of the bottom of
the pan.
Not all may know that a hot iron-poller,
if nothing better-run around a window
glass will loosen the putty, when it may be
easily scraped and the broken pane re-
moved. The new pane may be inserted,
putty neatly and carefully laid on and the
work is done.
Sandwiches made with grated ham,
which may be potted and kept on hand, are
easier to digest than when made of the
sliced meats. The lean part of the ham
should be grated like cheese and favored
with mustard. pepper and little vinegar.
A little olive oil or cream mixed through at
the last will be found a great Improvement

Riding Habits.

Horseback riding, as taught in the New
York schools and practiced in the east, fol-
lows English methods, notably the rising
trot," which is almost unknown at the
south and west. The eastern women also
borrow the English women's fashions in
the matter Of small, fat saddle and short
stirups and in the riding habit
Many of the habits are being made in
rough, hairy cloths, though smooth cloths,
diaSonals and corkserew cloths are also en-
ployed The colors most favored are black
and dark blues. The most popular bodice
is closely buttoned in front and finished
with square position back. The coat bod

Tea a la Tarlatan.

The charming literary wife of cele-
brated New York artist has introduced the
prettiest sort of a new wrinkle in the serv-
ing of her afternoon tea. When first she
handed round the steaming cups, each
with a white, fiower-like fragment float
ing on top, her guests were greatly inter
ested over the innovation. Then she eX-
planned, and, while adding Il slice of lemon
and cube of sugar to the fragrant beverage
coached the women present as to how they
might go and do likewise. 1t appears she
bought crisp, coarse tallatan, cut it up in
squares of five by five inches, pinked the
edges in sharp. deep scallops, and then,
putting u spoonful of Russian caravan tea
in the center, tied the leaves into Il ting
sack by means of bit Of heavy thread. BY
ruffiing out the loose portions she obtained
L blossomy look for her new fashioned tea
balls, and not only added immensely to the
daintiness of her table and cups, but made
ii possible for each guest TO suit his or her
particular taste. Some choose to let the tea
lilly remain until strength is attained, while
those liking the weaker drink soon remove

IN THE FlRELIGHT.


The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere.
Like troubled spirits here and there
The freight shadows fittering go:
And as the shadows round me creep
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from further room
Comes, Now lay me down 10 sleep"
And somehow. with that little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears
My thought goes back to distant years,
And fingers with the dear one there:
And as hear me child amen
My mothers faith comes back 10 me,
Crouched at her side | seem to be,
And mother holds my hands again.
Oh. for an hour in that dear place,
Oh, for the peace OF that dear time!
Oh, for that childish trust Sublimei
Oh, for glimpse Of mOther'S face.
Yet, as the shadows rOnud me creep.
do not seem TO be alone
Sweet magic OF that trembling tone.
And, NOW lay me down TO sleep"

THE MODES OF THE DAY.

Styles Adopted with Wooden Fabrics in
the Tailor Made Gowns.
The severe style adopted with .tweeds
and other wooden materials suggests the
idea that tailor made gowns have it all
their own way at present, and dresses man
ipulated by women's hands are confined to
evening wear. Many = she light wooden
fabrics have large diamonds or looped rings
in couples scattered over them, while others
have what are ironically called London
snow1akes, being of very doubtful white.
Many of the striped materials are SO made

The advanced price of whalebone is the
result of scarcity of whales and not of a
corner on bones. The whale has been so
valuable that, like the buffalo of the plains
it is likely to disappear and be reckoned
with the extinct monsters of previous ages.
Women will have to learn to make their
own bones do their duty or invent 4 substi-
tute. The decadence OF whale fishing may
lead to the universal adoption of Greek
STYLES.

If the terminus of the trip is to be any
one of the numerous lake resorts or some
one OF the attractive seashores, there are
essentials in preparation that may be sug-
gested to the inexperienced traveller. The
first of these is gray of blue flannel boat
ing suit. These colorS are suggested because
they are not apt to fade spot; in addition TO
one or two nice dresses and party dress or
two, it is better not 10 overstock oneself
in the matter OF dresses. For service have
a hat wide brimmed with ties, carry this
from home, as fancy prices are asked for
such hats at the resorts. A good supply of
Isle or cotton gloves will not come amiss
aud for the comfort of the feet have tennis
shoes, pair of stout boots and also pair of
rubbers. As the glare Of sky and water is
apt to affect the eyes pair of blue glasses
is wiss provision, and to preserve hands
and face from the effects of exposure it is
well to carry a supply of cold cream, and n
mixture of glycerine and rose water. If
bathing is to be a part Of the summers
pleasure. it IS better 10 have an individual
suit, and it is also wise to carry plenty of
underwear unAss laundry bills are a matter
of no consequence for laundry work at
watering places is by no means ill-paid
labor.
For morning wear in quiet retreats or at
home, the pretty ginghams of the season
are usually made with plain skirt full at
the back, attached to waist, the fronts OF
which are gathered on the shoulder. The
waist is made over fitted lining opening
over long slender V of embroidery that
extends to the waist line; the back is SIM
narly made. A little frill of embroidery

The recent patent centennial has given a
new impetus to inventors. Particularly is
tbs true of women. who are in 4 fair way
to disprOve the theory that they never in
