NOT ALTOGETHER TRUE.

A paragraph is gong the rounds o
the newspaper press 10 the effect tina
nearly all the notable gold and silver
discoveries Of our time have been Gu
riously connected with the figure .
the following Instances being cited ia
support Of this theory Gold was dis
covered in California in 1919, and in
British Columbia in 1859, the Com.
stock silver mines having been dis
covered the same year. The rich
placers about Pixies Peak were found
1869 and the Leadville bonanza IN
1879, it not being claimed by the sup-
porters Of this theory that any notable
mineral discovery occurred in 1889,
though they confidently expect one
will materialize at the close OF the
present decade.
Now. while the above events occur
red in the order stated, our chroniclers
would seem 10 be somewhat at fault in
their chronology, says the Mining Re
view. The grand gold discovery in
California happened in lS4S, not dur
ing the ,ear following. while the Brit
ish Columbia (the Frazier River) and
the Comstock discoveries in like man
ner occurred one year earlier than
these chroniclcrs have it. IL would
appear TO be the figure s, then, rather
than the figure ., That is entitled TO |
the distinc ion by these writers claimed
for the latter. But the truth is, that
in this connection neither Of these
figures has any special significance.
As regards the Pixies Peak and the
Leadville finds, while they really oc-
Cured in the years mentioned, ii is to
be remembered that they were by no
means so far-reaching and sweeping
in their effects as either tue discovery
OF gold in California, or of silver in
Western Utah, now Nevada. They
were, in fact, OF secondary importance.
The discovery OF gold in Australia,
which, in Importance, ranks next To
that in California, took place in 1850,
while the discovery of that metal in
Idaho occurred in 1850, followed the
next year by u lie discovery in Mon
lana, the great rush of immigration
having in every instance set in the
year following the grand discovery
made, and, as a general thing. cul.
within the next three or four
years, and in some cases much sooner.

aside, the books have to be removed
from their hiding places every night
and are usually pinned to the inner side
of the girls night gowns for safe keep
ing during the night. OF course the
playing of cards is forbidden, but
that doesn't prevent the young
ladies from playing euchre. seven
up. or even a small game
of draw poker when they feel like it.
They are allowed to play the game
called authors, so they get deck for
this game and common deck with like
backs, which can be found in every viii
lage where there is such a school, and
the two decks are placed Upon the table
where the girls are playing. Should one
of the teachers appear, the regular deck
if quickly showed aside and an innocent
game of authors is seen to be in prog
ress; but as soon as she has disappeared
the other cards and the old buttons again
take the field.
1t seems strange, but such school is
just the place for young lady to be-
come an experienced t1irt. The reas on
would seem to be that she sees so few
men and is so closely watched that she
learns to use her eyes or her fan with all
the grace and artlesSnesS OF a college
widow. Notwithstanding the close watch
kept by the teachers, racy novels and
other forbidden things find their way
within the sacred walls of the college,
and it must be dull girl, indeed, who
does not leave the institute with more
worldly wisdom than that with which
she entered it.

AT THE DRAWING ROOM.
Fine Frocks in Which Fair Ladies'
SaIuted the Oueen,

Fine EPOCkS in W Which Fair Ladies
SaIuted the Queen.
There are fine tales told of the toilets
worn at the queens May drawing
room. The assem- blage was most gay
and picturesque with plumes and laces
and much show of pink and apple
green. Many of the trains were at
tached to their fair wearerS' shoulders,
which gave effects that were stately.
Diamonds were the favorite gems,
though emeralds, rubies and turquoiS eS
made brilliant showing.
One of the few high bOdiceS was of
white bengaiine, covered with Brussels
lace. 1t had white velvet paniers aud
train of heliotrope velvet lined with
paler heliotrope satin. The severe make
of skirts brought out ancient treasures
of lace laid aside for years. A petticOat
of bold Louis XIV. brOcade striped with
daisies and other blooms was trimmed
with some of the white silk blonde that
was fashionable for wedding wells in the
first quarter of the century. The bodice
had a coat front with great pockets and
lace panierS. There was lavender vel
vet train that hung from high Medici
collar lined with gold.
a MOnu6I1ul COllDllldllOu VI NGliOW
shot with gold was worn with a Rose Gu
Barri velvet train and ornaments of
Marechal Mel roses. An unusual mix
ture of coloTs was gray and fawn in
| handsome brOcade with front composed
wholly of leweled embroidery; there
were quaint pointed sleeves trimmed
with lace and train of bronze faille
lined with bronze satin.
An empire gown Of yellow satin was
veled with lace, handed down from the
empire period. The lace sleeves were
caught with straps and great buckle,
such as you see in the old pictures. The
train was Nile green. One of the most
| beautiful dresses had train of light
blue satin lined with pink. The sleeves
apparently passed through the train in
| most picturesque and original fashion.
The front of the bodice was of ruffied
| folds of satin, and on either side from
neck to hem were loose side pieces of
antique pink brOcade, powdered with
rosebuds. Roses were worn about the
cOrsage.
There were bodices composed wholly
| of flowers. with flower fTingeS at the
waist. There were skirts. too, with
aprons of daisies or dandelion blow
aways. Altogether. for people who like
that sort of thing, the show was emf
nently satisfactory.

of Prussia, was not more than pretty, to
Judge by her portraits. A good many of
the other ladies have gaZed on, but not
one of them could compare with
the Countess CastigliOne. She was (or
rather she is, for she is still alive the
daughter of the Marquis Oldrim and his
wife, nee LampOrechi. When sixteen
she married Count Castiglione, a Pied
montese, very dressy gentleman. for l
remember drivlug one night from Pisa
TO Spezzia with HIM, and we stopped
three times Oh the way for him to
change his Taiment.
The countess was always somewhat
odd in her mode of life. At Turin she
seldom went out, but used to lie Oh a
sofa, with her bare feet on a cushion
when she received her friends. AZ
Paris the Emperor Napoleon was sup
posed TO be her slave. On one occasion
she went to fancy dress ball with al
most as little clothing on as st. Eliza
beth of Hungary on the altar.
Many protested, Oh which, to punish
them, she appeared attired as nun in
some tableauX at which she promised to
take part. The lady was quite con-
sciOuS of her beauty, but she fancled
that she was even more clever than
beautiful, and aspired to play ap0litical
part, writing so many letters that her
fingers were unusually inky.

HOW TO LACE A CORSET,
And Thereby Make Beauty and
Hygiene Clasp Hands.

"If lace you must" said handsome
and smart actress, "uSe three sets of
laces in your corsets. one starting at the
top and ending two or three holes above
the waist line of the corsets, to tie there;
the second starting at the lower edge of
the corsets, extending up to two or
three holes below the waist line of the
corsets, to tie there; the third lacing the
space left between and tying just at the
waist line.
There is place-isn't there, doc
tors? just about at the waist line, where
pressure can come without tying our
necessary and indispensable viscera
into hard knots. BY the suggested ar
rangement of. cords we can reduce the
size of the waist with less violent
offense to the heart and lungs, and also
without sacrificing entirely harmony of

FASHION NOTES.

The newest and Urettiest thing in
silks is the sprigged merv-a black
ground which is powdered with tiny
blossoms or sprigs in colOrs; with one
covered with little sprays of pink
heather a piquant little bonnet of black
lace and heather might be worn.
The very lightweight basket-braid
hats are very chic and charming, and
their garnitures are likewise ethereal.
Soft-tinted crepes, nets and tulles are
used, as well as chiffOnS and light gren-
adines.
Buckles for belts have lately shown
more novelty of design than has been
the case for long time. The heart
shaped, lotus-shaped and dragons
head are among the handsomest.
Pretty hats for the country are made
in the 'Niniche" shape, turning up in
the back and curving down in front
over the face. They are made of chip
or NeapOlitan braid, or of both these
fabrics in alternating stripes, with
lace straw passementerie at the edge.
New silks delightfully."- cool for gen.
uine hot weather wear are imported
from TuSsan, India. They have gray or
pale cream grounds. decorated with
large dots, cubes. blocks or palms, in
various cOlOrS. The have also stripes
of delicate color OH ecru foundations.
Ladies who are travelling will be glad
to meet with the basket trunk, which is
made of strong wicker, covered with
stont waterproof canvas, and bound
with leather. 1t is fitted with a tray.
The usual length is twenty-four inches.
1t may be had at thirty three inches. 1t
is one of the latest importations.
Bright cherry red comes again to the
fore as the favOrite color for country
dresses made of such material as veil
ing, Indian cashmere and clairette,
plain, polka-dOtted, in black. white or
gray, or striped or checked. Red also
appears in cotton stuffs, especially in
French calico, zephyr ginghams. and
i'll the thicker percaleS with pretty bOr-
derings.
Low-throated dresses are everywhere
worn and large share are cOllarless,
with sometimes bit of paSSementerie
in points or band of ribbon as subSti-
tute. Sometimes the void is lace-flled,
but many corsages are left empty and
unrelieved. Extra pretty women, with
smooth, creamy thrOatS, can endure
this fashion, but at It's best there is
certain loss Of tidiness, and an absolute
loss of style and elegance, with every
inch of neck-coyering taken from the
bodice of street dress.
Russian laces are not much worn By
fashionable women. Thread patterned
French silk laces and Marquise and
Chantilly designs are preferred. Span
ish lace is not the popular variety this
wear, and when adopted it is seen upon
women Of wealth. who have made use
of treasured fiounces and draperies of
the genuine hand-run designs that
stamp the dress trimmed with them as
worth many hundreds of dollars. A
horsechestnut and chestnut horse are
no more different than a real and a

THE KISSABLE WOMAN.
She May Not Always Be Hand

ing.
There is the kissable woman. Her
size, age. tints, features, disposition,
character-one and all have seemingly
nothing to do with her charm. All you
are conscious of in her presence is the
desire to take her in your orms and kiss
her. She may be absolutely devoid of
personal beauty and not young, and yet
nine men and half and seven women
out of each ten will want to kiss her if
they are in her presence five minutes.
Sometimes she is good and kind and un-
selfish and possessed of beauty; and
then she is always breaking hearts with
out meaning to do so, aid winning love
she cannot return, and incurring criti-
cism she does not deserve.
She sees more beautiful women Civ
Ing more encouragement to men than
she gives, and indulging in far more
desperate fiirtatiOns without causing
any such disaster as she causes by one
kind, sweet smile; and she cannot un-
derstand it all, at least not until she
has had all sorts of trouble out of it.
But the fact is that the men who are
quite hardened to f1irtationS with the
merely beautiful women lose their

kissable girl in their arms. Women who
do not possess this charm, and who play
a bold game of Irritation without in
CURING any such risks and dangers,
find it impossible to explain the effect
of the kissable girl upon her admirers.
They think she must be very deep
and adroit siren at heart, while, in
fact. she is often frankness personified d.
She is inclined TO become somewhat self
iSh, however, as time passes, in her love
of admiration, and to take as her natural
right more love than belongs to her.
But she is never malicious or intention
ally unkind. She feels sorry for her
lovers after she has won them. and she
never wounds another woman if she
can help it without a too great sacrifice
of the love and devotion which is her
native element. She is full of love her.

A GIRLS DRESSING TABLE.
1t Is the Pride of Her Own Dear
Little BOudOiP.

A girls dressing table is the pride of
her room. She may have pretty pict-
ures. a collection of photographs of her
best fellows far exceeding in number
that of her envIOus girl friends. she
may have a gum-board of real rosewood,
five dozen sachet bags and a night-gown
case of real Japanese silk, yet with all
these glories to outShine it, the dressing
table is the pride and the piece de re-
Sistance, so to speak, of the room. The
sweetest dressing table is all of glass
and is provided with two shelves, an
upper shelf and lower shelf. These
are of beveleG glass and are held in
place by beautiful gold legs.
Another kind of dressing table, less
expensive, has simply bevelled glass
cover on top. and is just plain table
elsewhere. On top of the table go the
silver manicUring implements, the cellu-
loid brush and comb and the ivory
backed glasses and brushes. Besides
this there must be the dozens of little
fancy boxes. powder and puffs and
bottle of cologne and perfumery. To
make these bottles more ornamental
manufacturers have supplied beautiful
cut-glass pitchers and Odd-shaLed things
filled with perfumery of all colors. One
can thus. if she be dainty miss, and
particular as to the appointments Of her
room, have perfumery to match the
general color of the bOudOir.

FREELY JEWELS.
In the Giddy Whirl With "Lumi-
mons Ladies' -

nous Ladies'"
Electric jewelry usually takes the
form of pins, which are made in various
designs. One such jewel copies daisy,
and has an electric spark flashing from
the center; another is model of Ian
tern in emerald glass, while deaths
head in gold, with ray CLEAN ing from
each eye, bears testimony to the realis-
tic prOclivitieS of the age.
The wearing of electric JeWelry ne ces-
states the carrying about of an accu-
mulator, which resembles spirit flask,
and is generally slowed away in waist
coat pocket. Brooches are made occa-
sionally for ladies' wear, but as women
have no waistcOat pockets, difficulty
arises with regard to the battery.
Electricity has occasionally flashed
from the brOWs of fairy queens in comic
opera, but whether it will ever appear
i'll the ball room is another matter. 1t
would be a new sensation to whirl in
the giddy waltz, emitting electric rays
on every side. And might not ones
partner experience shock in more
ways than one?

Desire for Conventional Life.

A report has been circulated in Brus-
sells that Princess Clementine. the
youngest daughter of the king, has de-
cided to become nun in the elOiSter of
Tette-Saint-Pierre, near the capital, to
which only members of the aristocracy
are admitted. 1t is fact that the young
princess, now nineteen years of age,
makes long and frequent visits to the
famous coister. Princess Clementine
was great favorite with the dead
Prince Baldwin. Grief over his un-
timely end is said to be the cause of her
wish to Withdraw permanently from the
world. Many people, however, do not
believe that King Leopold will permit
his child to carry out her wishes and
plans.

Peculiar Idea of a Memorial.

New York Evening Sun.
A bright and pretty girl in southern
town was one of the victims in an awful
railway disaster ahd no trace of her
body was ever found. There was an
insurance on her life which was paid
over to the mother, who then conceived
the brilliant idea of a memorial of her
dead daughter. With the insurance
money she bought herself magnificent
pair of solitaire diamond earrings
which she wore always thereafter. She
was sure, she explained to her friends,
that her daughter would choose these
for her monument if she could, and that
the stones were like Matte, they were
so bright and sparkling, and they were
something she could always keep near
her. This was her idea of memorial.
