be used great deal as trimming. Ribbon
and feathers are at present the prevailing
favorites found upon hats.
All the bOnnets on show in the windows
have strings. Milliners prefer to sell hats
with strings upon them, and to most
women, the dainty little strings are becom-
ing. Number II width is the favored for
strings, and satin is much preferred to
any other kind. A few of the hats are
tied In the back with bows which are de-
signed to be punched in old-fashioned
style just under the couture. Prettier hats,
however, have bows in front which are
composed of very thick loops These
loops are made up before and are fastened
by means of friendly hook and eye
Gems, the real articles, are not very
often seen upon hats. In their places,
though, there are cut glass limitations
which are used in combination with gold
for decorating autumn hats. Big spangles
of the most fashionable kind are seen all
over the loops and bows and ends of rib
bon which are decorating the most fashion,
able hats of the season.
Green is the favorite color-there is no
doubt about it. There is the bronze green,
which is becoming to blondes. And then
there is a bewildering variety of other
green's from which both blondes and
brunettes may take their choice There
are the light shades, besides emerald
green, maize green, linden green, cream
green and Nile green. Green is natures
own color, and my dear woman, be you
blonde or brunette, you will be sure to
find something that is becoming to you, if
you study carefully the dictionary of

Mr. Stockton for many years derived the
largest part of his support as a reader for
publishing houses, and it was not until he
was well on in the prime of life that he
caught the public fancy with the story
of ''Rudder Grange" and the shorter
tale entitled ''The Lady or the Tiger2"
Mr.. Howells, whose repute is perhaps
greater than his popularity with the mass
es, would be unable to live upon the re-
ceipts from any of his books If he was not
able to dispose of them to Harper's, to be
first printed serially in the magazine of
that house. Even then his income would
be small for a man of his tastes and social
necessities So he was very glad to accept
a proposition for journalistic work as one
of the sub-editors of Harper's, and for this
service he receives larger annual sum
than any of his books has ever brought
him. 80

NEW YORK, Jan. lat has been recent
ly announced in public prints that Mr..
Frank r. Stockton is the only American
writer of fiction who is able to live entirely
upon the income from his stories. This
statement is not quite true. For some
years Edward Eggleston has earned from
his stories a sufficient income to support
him, and enable him to devote his leisure
to historical studies. Mrs Burnett would
be able to live handsomely on what shs
receives for her stories, although she has
added largely to her income by some jour
nalistic work and by her dramatic vent
ures. Gen. Lew Wallace could have sup
ported himself nicely on the income he has
received from the sale of "Ben-Hr." But
as rule nearly all of the writer's of fictio4
would make a scant living if they were de-
pendent upon their receipts from maya,
zines or royalties on the sale of their books.
