pretticr than ever.
The velvet ribbons and ribbons are to
be used for trimming in every possible
way.
That black batistes with all over silk
embroidery in colors and deep rich Dor.

That batistes of oil colors, richly EN-.
broidered, are seen everywhere.
- That early spring cloths are still mod,
erately rough.
That gowns are to be slightly fulle,
and more draped than heretofore.
That close fiat trimmings arc still pre-.

That summer hats will be veritable

The word necromancy, for long time
called the black art, was once and is still
by some pronounced negro-mancy.
For this there was some reason, since in
the old French the word was nigromance,
and in middle Latin nigromantia; but the
word is from the Greek nekros dead
and manteia (divination). The buttery in
old fashioned houses was not place 10,
