New YORK, March 13.-AS the weeks
glide swiftly by and there seems to be a
prospect of saying goodbye to wintry
weather, the new fashions become more
decided, and it is easier to speak author
itatively as to the spring styles. And
one of the points that seems settled is
that there will be a great diversity in
the wraps Of the season. The first are,
as usual, the cloth coats. more or less
elaborate Then, as the Easter gaities
begin, there appear at the day weddings
and afternoon receptions all manner of
fancy confections, in
rich in embroidery and lace. These, of
course, are only to be used for SEMI
dress occasiohs-for calling and for car
riage wear-and therefore may be more
snowy than the coats worn for shopping
and for the daily promenade. And one
of the chief novelties sanctioned to the
beau monde by Redfern is the silk coat.
The material thus utilized is brocaded
bengaline, or any of the broche silks.
Our first sketch to-day gives an idea of
these extremely interesting garments.

Home Queen

In the country, trained nurses are ex-
ceedingly scarce, and one may ride from
morning till night and return alone; or,
if he succeeds in finding one who is
willing to do her best" it is with a
sinking heart that he trusts the life OF
his loved one to her keeping.
An ardent advocate of the "cap and
apron service" says:
"My attention was first attracted to
nursing by the half-hectoring PROPOSE
ton OF young medical friend who had
just received his diploma, and was ia
voring US with farewell visit while his
prospective Office was being fitted up.
"'Why do you not take a courSe?"
he said.

Why, there is not money enough in
America to tempt me to spend my life
in the sick roomn
"But something soon happened that
modified my aversion, and made me

something of medicine and nursing.
My mother was attacked by lung
fever; was only comfortably i'll. / gave
her my first thoughts and almost con-
slant attention.

as she was bolStered up enjoying her
daintily prepared meal, felt rewarded
by hearing her say, 1t is almost worth

queen
"But hardly had the words left her
lips, when the spoon dropped from her
hand, and she was convulsed with the
most exquisite agony. The element of
torture was as foreign and unlooked-for
as flash of electricity would be in a
clear sky.
And oh! the miles between US and
the doctor. Could she live in such dis
tress until one could be brought? Could
L endure to stay by, as helpless as a
baby, and see her suffer so? Oh, if |

But the avalanche of horrors and dam
gers that their imagination pictured did
not move me. However, although of
age, could not think it right to brave
their displeasure and bring such dis
grace upon myself and them while they

"They evidently thought it an in

named an age when, if still wished to

''The time passed, and with it many

There Is Still Another Evidence
that royalty is much like common folk

poet queen, has won for herself as many
admirers among princes and princesseS
as any everyday newspaper woman in

Everywhere Carmen SYLVIA goes. and
when she stays at home, she is lauded,

ION, Take This Flower, Dear
LOVe!,
is one of the proper songs of the day
for the young miss who measures her
affection by words, and bestows her
favors like flowers upon the admirers
who flock about her to do homage. At
the afternoon tea, or the evening gath
erlng, it is the pretty caper for
the hostess to strew the piano and
mantels with daffodils, crocus, lily-of-
the-valley and viOletS. A single flower
is given to each gentleman as he de-
parts, and to each lady is presented
corsage bouquet. AS a mark of special
favor, 1t is permissible for a young
woman TO exchange section of her
posy for the blossom given the Young
man whom she deigns TO favor. By this
sign 1t is understood that the Young
woman considers the young man her
FRIEND and admirer, and hopes that her
memory may linger with him after the
scent of the flowers has departed.
Oh, young men of the day. If there
is one among you who IS kind and hon
orable and true, who. is loyal to his
word, faithful to the memory of friends,
regarding women as sacred trust and
not as lawful prey to his destinations

Craig-y-nos. Her latest scheme Is to
build a large theatersr with an immense
seating capacity. The theater is in a
wing recently added to the castle.
When plays are brought out there, they
are to be eXQuiSitely staged and perfectly
provided with all the little appoint
ments which make play society sue
cess. Wilson Barrett's manager is now
in Wales, experimenting the prepare
tons of a new play called Found"
which is shortly to be brought out.
Upon this occasion Craig,y,nos will be
filed with Madame and Signor Nico-
lini's friends, numbering many mem
bers of royalty. These will occupy the
boxes, with which the theater is gen.
erously provided. The orchestra and
balconies will be given up to the neigh
boring people. with whom Madame Patti
is an Immense favorite.
Last winter. when Patti made I'D her
mind that she would not sing to her
New York audience, after every seat in
the house and even every foot of stand
ing room had been sold, the manage
ment went wild with grief and fury, of
fering limitless sums for single trlll.
But the saucy little diva was capricious
and declared that neither money nor
tears should prevail with her. This

and thousand identifying blessings in
its train; all of which is why COM
plexion talks are proverbially among
the most interesting to readers of the
gentler sex. There is a tradition con-
corning the office of a certain woman's
periodical published in this city that
whenever one of the staff lacks inspira-
ton she gets up an article on the com
pleHlon. Undoubtedly the best way to
deal with poor compleXion-a shallow,
muddy skin for instance-is to let it
alone so far as direct applications are
concerned and begin at the physical
causes and conditions which produce
this unpleasant effect.
The most simple and efficaciouscosme-
TIC is rain water. Its advantages have
been urged many times in print, and a
faithful continuous use of the lotion
cannot fail to work good. During the
summer just passed a lady visited a
friend at her country home, which was
quite Isolated and detached from any
town or settlement. The water for
bathing purposes was supplied from
roof tanks of rain water and carried hot
and cold through the house. Every
member of the household, including the
servants, had TO opportunity to use in
bathing drop of water other than this
soft liquid straight from the skies, and
1t was noticed at once how universal
was the effect. A clear, glowing skin
and soft hands were shared alike by
mistress and maids,a the guest at the
end of week, discovered most graft
flying similar condition in her own skin.
An English writer thinks that where
1t is not easy to get rain water in the
cities and other places, any water boiled
and cooled will do as well. The same
writer inveighs against blackheads,
which she calls ''congeaIed perspira-
tion," and which she thinks need not
exist in perfectly clean skin. If these
undesirable spots remain after free
home bathing and friction with soft
towels, course of Turkish baths will
undoubtedly remove them.

day, with the forest races of Borneo, a
gesture as of smelling takes the place

sometimes its drawbacks. We may be
considered lucky that our advanced
