Unique Autograph Collection.

A wealthy Tenth street merchant has
a collection of autographs which for
uniqueness has no comparison outside
of the possession of modern Goulds or
Vanderbilts, says the Philadelphia
Record. Everyone of the autographs
is worth at least five dollars, and
there are upward of fifty thousand of
them. He began about five years ago
to collect fivc-Gollar bills containing
the signatures of the different national
bank presidents of the United States.
He has now nearly two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars tied up in this
queer scheme, and declares that his
collection is not complete by many
thousands of dollars yet. He is
willing to give one hundred dollars for
a five-dollar bill bearing the signature
Of Walter Ross Raymond, who was at
one time president of short-lived bank
at Oneko, O. For some reason there
was only five of the bills issued No
trace of them can be found Inquiry

were many sorts of odd trif1es shaped
and colored like autumn leaves.
/ do not mean to trouble you with
more than one more dress, and find it
hard to decide whether that shall be
the maize-colored muslin printed with
cherries-an eccentric gown worn by
wonderfully pretty and vivacious bru-
Meteor the pale gray muslin lowered
with stalks of gladiolus. This was
worn by a very tall, very slender and
very pale woman, and the effect of the
splashes of vivid red and orange color
was pronounced but not unpleasant. l
had curious notion that it was toned
down for every beholder by the quietude
of the woman, who leaned back against
the dark furs that covered her settee
and watched the dancers without seem
ing to see them, unconscious, so far as
anybody could determine, of their
movements, of her surroundings and Of
the gladiolus spikes against the pale
gray.
Do you care for autumn leaves? Up
at Onteora, in the Catskills, where the
Bear and the Fox is still kept open,
and Mrs Cadence Wheeler and her fell
low artists and literary folk will re-
main until quite cold weather, most
homelike sitting-room in one of the cot
tages has been glorified this week by
the first of the maple branches that
have turned yellow and the first of the
oak leaves that have turned red and
bronze. Each leaf has been pressed
| and spread open and attached with a
| little glue to the pale creamy-brown
wall, making frieze that is aglow
with color, and seemed the one thing
that was needed to complete the effect
of the open fireplace, the deep window
seats and the dark oak finish of wood
| work and furniture. The leaves, the
artists say, will last even through the
winter and will not lose life or color or
| turn dull.
But | meant to tell you what we are
to wear. Many of the autumn dress
| goods are very rough in texture. They
show stripes and checks and big, start
| ling patterns. There is cloth that is
called hail and storm" You do not
wonder so much at the title when you
see that the stripes, which take slant
ing direction as if blown by wind, are
contrived to represent alternating
snow-falses and rain. 1t does not seem
to me that personally should care to
venture out from under cover in such a
rough weather gown.
Cheviots and tweeds with broadcloth
facings seem likely to be much worn.
| Fabrics Of fine texture are sprinkled, as
a few seasons ago, with spots of long
camers hair. The color combinations
nSesent some few novelties. For ex

FASHIONS FOR AUTUMN.
Things Seen at a Barn Party and
in the Stores.

We Shall Wear-Facts About Fall
Dresses and Millinery - The
Reign of Brown.


am planning to tell you about a
barn party, and also about the first cos
tunes finished for autumn. The barn
party shall come first, by your leave.
It was given at Lenox, and those of us
who went from New York to enjoy it
found the big, lofty, sweet-smelling
barn full of clover hay piled high on
the mows, and hung with draperies Of
gay print in red and white stripes
caught up with long red ribbons.
Bunches of brown cattails, oats, grasses,
golden rod and cardinal flowers were
placed against the hangings. 1t was a
new barn and the floor was a fine solid
one Of matched pine planks. These
had been waxed and oiled for dancing,
and great parti-colored Chinese lanterns
hung from the rafters. Benches and
settees were ranged against the walls
and covered with fur rugs, buffalo
robes, bright-colored lap robes and gay
shawls.
There were colored fddlers on the
little platform built up in one corner
for the musicians, and the costumes OF
the fresh-faced girls who whirled in the
waltz were notably pretty, perhaps be-
cause almost invariably simple.
One young girl wore a plain full
white muslin skirt. with waist and short
paniers of pink lawn and full white
muslin sleeves. Her straw poke bon
net was lined with pink tulle and
trimmed with pink roses.
Another costume was a skirt of white
linen lawn sprigged with red, with
white null paniers Topped with red rib
bons. The high bodice had full vest
of red crepe de chine.
The most elaborate toilet l saw was
worn by young woman who looked
like Lillian Russell. 1t was a white
muslin printed with fall asters in shades
of pale purple and lilac, and worn over
an underdress of lilac silk. The muslin
was rather oddly founced with a little
guipure lace, and this was caught uI
prettily, if not altogether by necessity
with rosettes of lilac ribbon. The
bodice was made of guipure insertion
and muslin.
There was a german, though ger
man doesn't seem in any way essentia
at barn party, and among the favor:

long gold chains will be worn about the
neck, carried to the left shoulder, then
to the waist and so to the watch pocket,
after the fashion of many years ago.
Millinery is not yet shown in any
quantity, but white felt sailor hats are
out in force, and are trimmed with
brown birds or wings, and with long
wells of white crepe, which come from
the back and fold about the throat most
picturesqucly. It is long since there
was an autumn without turban, and
this autumn sees thousands of turbans,
all with straight brins, pointed in
front and most with dome-shaped
crowns. A brown turban that was
brought out for my benefit this morn
ing was trimmed with nest-like bow Of
brown ribbon over which lowered rare
and many-colored bird-made from the
pickings probably of several sorts of
poor dead warblers-with diamond eyes.
Another shape is a revised and posi-
bly, improved edition of the Toreador

bounce the wide, picturesque brims
there is the Velasquez in white and

plumes.

Brown is the autumn color for ex-
cellence, and next it in favor ranks
orange, flame color and serpent and
emerald greens. I am not sure that
this is just the place to mention the
fact, but have seen walking shoes of
blue morocco with brown soles and
heels
There are going to be paniers. Nom
inally paniers have been in fashion for
six months, but now really and truly
we are going to wear them. There
seems no prospect of getting rid of the
waist hounce, which is longer and
fuller than ever; sometimes it is Topped
| with ribbon straps on the hips and is both
| flounce and paniers; again it falls half
way to the knees and becomes an over
| skirt of most awkward shape and pro-
| portion.
Sleeves remain high on the shoulders,

.pEeORAH'S BROWN HAIR.
A Curious Story from Maine of q Love
Lock and q Stick of Wood.

Curious story from Maine of Love
Lock and Stick of Wood.
Thirty-seven years ago, says the
Boston Traveller, a Yankee fishing
skipper of Vinal Haven, Me-, named
Solomon Marshall was counting Debo-
rah Sholes, of Upper Port La Tour, N.
S. While at her home he had begged
lock of her beautiful golden brown
hair. During the succeeding winter,
which he spent at his home, he received
the news that the young lady of his
heart had turned tickle and was allow
ing another the honor of her company
to village merry-making.
In his despair he and friend named
Colby, who was afterwards killed in
the war, bored a three-quarter inch
hole into a white birch tree then about
five inches through, put the hair in and
drove home after it a pine plug. The
next summer he went back to Nova
Scotia and married the fair Deborah, in
| triumph over his rival, and brought her
| to the states, where he afterwards died.
| He never thought it necessary to re-
| claim the hair, and there it remained
| for year after year, the tree waxing
| large and strong, and covering over
| with it's white wood and paper bark
| the precious token hid in it's bosom.
Last winter Mr.. Edwin Smith, who
now owns the old Marshall farm, cut
| the tree for firewood. In splitting the
wood the ak happened to lay the tree
| open exactly on pine plug, with a lock
| of beautiful hair behind it. The outside
| end of the plug was covered by three
| inches of solid wood which consisted
of thirty-seven annual rings. The hail
and plug are now in possession of Mrs
Margaret Turner, of Isle au Haute, Me.

romance, who is now Mrs. Saunders, OF

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1891-09-16

There was Tom the son of the piper.
Jack Sprat and Merry King Cole,
And the three wise men of Gotham,
Who went to sea in bowl;
The woman who rode on a brOomstick,
And swept the cobwebbed sky,
And the boy who sat in the corner,
Eating his Christmas pie.
These were some of the favorites, but
they have been supplanted by the
'Pansy" and "Chatterbox" stories,
Little Lord Fauntleroy" and Give
Little Peppers" The old fashioned pills
and physics have been superseded, and
wisely too, by Pierce's Purgative Pei
lets, mild, harmless and effective Ca
Jhartic. They are pleasant to take-sC
gentle in their action that the most deli
cate child can take them, yet so effect.
I'VE that they will cure the most obsti-
nate cases of constipation, stomach
liver and bowel troubles. They should
be in every nursery. AS gentle Taxa
tive, only one for dose.
