BE PATIENT BUT EARNEST AND CAN
DID WITH HONEST DoUBTERs.
In the great struggle for re-
form in which the hosts of par
tisans are being gathered on the
one side and the advocates Of a
change OF condition on the 9TH
er, it must lie expected that
many will be found hating be-
tween the lines. Such men are
generally honest, and their po-
sitioD comes from an earnest de-
sire to understand July the sit
uatiou in order 20 make up their
minds honestly. OF course this
does not apply to the tricky po-
lit.cal time server, but to the
candid and honest donbter. Men
of this character and position
are found on every hand and
should be met in a spirit of
fraDkness and candor that will
tend to draw them closer instead
of driving them away. Their
doubts and queries should be
met and answered fully, careful
lyand intellightly. They being
sincere in their doubts can sci.
dom be convinced by other than
truthful and straightforward
arguments.
1t is unnecessary to exagerate
and much better to be conser-
vative With such a course the
the slow, honest doubter is con-
WINGED. and the quick, eager en-
enemy confused. It is there
fore necessary that such person
engaged in this effort of reform
should be armed with facts, fig.
ures and deductions sufficient tc

WHAT HATS ARE WORN ?

All sorts except those with
straight hrims. Everything in
head-gear must have twist to
it. These hats lend a. charm to
any face. If it be straight,
Grecian-featured, the little
dents soften the lines and
beautify the tout ensemble; if a
piquant, irregular one, the con-
Trajectory indentations and
shell-like twirls in straw give a.
more bewitching en.hontnent.
Wreaths of wild flowers and
ivy vines twined around the
brims are the the favored STYLES

SLEEVE EFFECTS.

A long sleeve makes the hand
look tiny; an elbow sleeve cuts
off the best part of d woman's
arm, shows that which ia usual
ly the worst, and certainly does
not decrease the size of her hand
an extremely short sleeve-the
regular creampuff sleeve that
permits The shoulder to show
above 1t and the entire arm TO
be visible-is, for evening. a
most desirable style, whether
the arm be a plump or slender
one. 1t the arm is slender the
glove can be worn to cover the
elbow, and then the plump part
of the arm would be visible

FASHION NOTES.

Fancy shoes do not find favor
among women of best taste.
Roman pointed shoes have
once more triumphed over the
opposition OF their square-toed
toed rivals. The medium low
Riehelieu shoe is worn, and also
the low-cut slipper, in fine mat
kid, but above all in vanished
leather. Black stockings are still
worn with all toilettes, dark and
iighS, tn 'u;h white stockings
are also very generally used with
light gowns, and with others as
we'll. Stockings to match the
gown are still adopted i'll excep-
tional Instances.
The prettiest feather fans for
full-dress toilettes are Of downy
white marabout, mounted on
sticks of pearl Or of the pale
amber-tinted shell. Cocks fea-
Their fans for use in the after
noon are of pale pink or blue
feathers, placed in fat rows I'M
til they are suddenly curved at
the top. They are studded with
jet nails of graduated sizes.
forming a border along the
curved top. Japanese Grape fans
mounted on fragrant woods are
in pale, delicate tints, and in
white grounds strewu with flow
ers. The handsomeest gauze
fans are delicately painted, and
those OF lace are powdered with
Rine-stones or with diamonds.
Grey snesds gloves have been
brought out with black crochet
backs; four buttons are more
worn than six in the day time,
and in the evening twelve but
tons reach t., the elbow, sixteen
cover it; but / am inclined to
think eight are better worn.
Gannttets are generally adopted
in the country, in 1ndeer and
chevrette, anf now it is possible
to match the most tender color
ings in day or gray, or indeed
any tone. White English doe
skin is gaining in favor, and so
