Some one has truthfully remarked. says
the New York San, that there is no prettier
sight on the dancing floor than that pre-
sented by children, especially girls, as they
gracefully trip through the evolutions ofthe
dance. For all that it makes great differ
ence in their looks whether they are attired
becomingly or not, and the obtaining of ap-
propriate dancing costumes for children has
narrowed many a mothers soul.

The Wire Work Display.

The interest in this exhibit on main floor
seems never to flag, yet greater interest is
shown in the solid iron work shown by the
firm at 201-3-5 Market street, where Taylor
& Dean prove that notwithstanding the
great strength and durability of their fire
escapes, staircases, iron shutters, cellar
doors, and fenc1ngs, they are neither cum
brous nor ugly.

The crepon finish that has grown to be
somewhat familiar in the summer woolens
is now given to heavier wools that
are suitable for winter gowns These
are crinkled in stripes, with plain
or puckered stripes between, or else
they are crepe all over, in the way seen
in English grapes. Chevron, or V stripes
of bias lines coming from the selvedges to
meet in points in the middle of the breadth,
remain in as great favor as when first intro
duced. Narrow zigzag stripes in. the
wool fabric are seen again in all serviceable
colors.

teachers, doctors, writers and other profess
sional workers. The first rainy day in Oc-

in stormy weather costume, consisting of a
killed skirt in waterproof cloth reaching a
little way below the knees and revealing
CATERS of waterproof cloth or riding boots.
A REFER coat will cover the upper part of

The ribbed goods are very much in favor
this season, and those patterned after the
Bedford cords are among the very hand
soonest of the seasons woolens, and will
fairly rival the finest habit cloths. This
autumn figured and striped Bedford cords
are added to the plain ribbed fabrics of last
winter Narrow satin stripes two inches
apart and of light color are on the darkest
ribbed woods, as, for instance, salmon
stripes on dark chestnut brown, light blue
stripes on dark blue ground, and coral or
pale blue stripes of dark Bedford cord
Cross-barred cords are in similar bright
satin coloring on dark grounds. Another
fancy is for broche effects in large feathery
designs in Bedford cord in two shades of
peach color or chrvsanthemum red, of
bronze blue or gray. These are for the en-
tire dress, or they may be used for the skirt
and sleeves of bodice of plain wool.

The Duchess OF FUe. up tightly around
the throat, such cloak isa beautiful street
garment, showing, as it does, only band of
feather trimming around the neck and down
the front. But let it be thrown open,
to disclose a ball or dinner toilet,
and the vision is charming one.
Fancy cloak of this description worn by
no less parsonage than Her Royal High
ness, the Duchess of Fife. 1t was pur-
chased in London and was designed to be
taken to Scotland for the cool days which
the Duchess is experiencing during her
months sojourn there. The material was
of dark red Bedford cord, and the lining
was entirely of black ostrich feathers. At
a dinner which the Duchess attended she
wore this cloke over an exquisite black net
dress, beautifully wrought out in jets and
turquoise. The embroidery, which was of
these two decorations, extended in dou-
BILE row down the front of the bodice,
and a single row of jets and turquoise bor-
dered its lower edge.

81 had been troubled for four or five years
with severe case of catarrh. My head
ached, my nose was stopped up and the
mucus would drop back into my throat. NV
eyes were sore and weak; my ears were af-
fected and kept con tinuaIly ringing and
buzzing. My throat became sore and in
famed and my stomach was in such a con-
dition that food did me little good. There
was always heavinesS and bloa ted feeling
after eating. Dizzy spells would come over
me so that could hardly stand, walk or at
tend to my duty. This scared me. 1 went
to Drs. Copeland & Hall, at 66 Sixth avenue,
placing my case IN their hands and began to
improve at once. l have been treating but
