Fashions Fan ies.

Green and white is the combination
most fancied for outdoor wear on hot
DAYS, green OF the tint Of the foliage in
sashes and shoulder knots, and sheer
fine lawn, as purely white and thin as
a bishops sleeve, for the frock make
the prettiest afternoon gowns for young
ladies, or older matrons who retain the
much-to-be-d desired slenderness OF tgure
and delcacy Of skin common to young
women.
Yellow is a particularly favorite color
this summer, and, II carefully chosen,
suits blondes and brunettes alike.
There is one tone of clear pale, prim-
rose yellow, especially becoming to a
dark complexion, which will take the
delicacy out Of fair one. A peculiar
greenish tint Of yellow, we'll suited to
the sweet pea tinting OF blondes, no
brunette should attempt.
Ubiquity is fatal to any fashion, con-
seuuently the shoulder frtlls OF lace
which have decorated every sort OF
gown, from zephyr to velvet, are being
replaced in some dresses by chemisetts
of exouisitely fine India lawn drawn up
on baby ribbon, and in others by hchus
OF India muslin, edged with tiny gath
cred frills and worn with their ends
tucked in the belt.
The distinguishing mark OF a real
Partisan toilet is touch Of black, deft-
ly added. A favorite method OF its ar
rapQemept with slight women is to
make a belt with loops Of ribbon hang
ing about the waist, which gives a
pleasing fulness to the slight figure and
is suggestive of Venetian slashings.
Striking among the novelties for
| country wear are the toilets OF pure
white, from the tip OF the snowy para
sol 10 the shoes OF white linen or ooze
leather, which are worn with white silk
stockings and peep out from the lace
edged ruffles Of white surah petticoats.
The accordIou-plaited blouses is a
new and popular factor in the field.
There is no lining except IN the little
round yoke, from which the plated
fitness falls longer than the waist line,
and Is caught up beneath folded belt
| finished with rosette on one side.
Some of the newest gowns desis ned
/ for women who are weary OF the mo-
notony OF sheath skirts have deep Span
ish sounces added to the bell-shaped
/ skirts, which are not lined, and are
made WITHOUT petticoat.
Delicately figured bengaline silks are
among the dainty novelties for the
coming season. For church. visiting,
reception and high teas bengaline Is the
! favorite material, and il supplants cloth
and even crepon in popularity.
The height of fashion in Paris Is dark
blue used in combination with emerald
green: so we may be prepared for the
appearance of this somewhat incongru'
Gus combination in autumn fabrics.
Velvet sleeves have come into favor
/ again and, oddly enough, are seen 10
tea gowns and dressy home toilets oil
delicately tinted lawn. The sleeves are
cut in fancifully flowing shapes.
Russian coIors promise to be the pop
alar tints for early autumn, and they are
emerald, a dull blue, deep red and
! black.
Many modish white wool gowns dis
play sleeves of green velvet, that being
the only bit Of color in the toilet.

Little FemInInlties.

The Council Of the Royal Geographi-
cal Society in England has determined
to admit women as members. Two
medals have been granted by this soci-
ETY. to women, one to Lady Franklin in
commemoration OF her husbands dis

Women as Composers.

It is gratifying to read the frequent
notices OF. woman's progress in the COM
position of music, field in which she
mas gained little distinction heretofore.
Among the successful and original
woman composers OF the day is Mrs.
II. A. Beach, who has completed her
FESTIVAL Jubiate" for orchestra and
chorus to be presented at the dedica-
ton of the exposition in october. She
has also nearly completed her aria and
recitative from Schiller's marie Stu
art" and is engaged on an oratorio.
The young Italian composer and plan

mite, and Is TO be performed By this

She Owns . stage Line.

Mrs. 81. j. Langdon, Of Lassen coun-
ty, the woman stage driver of the
Sierras, owns a stage line that extends
several hundred miles through the
mountains, employs scores Of horses and
vehicles, and carries the United States
mail, merchandise and passengers. She
is an excellent whip, and, seated on the
box of her wagon, manipulates the lines,
controlling four or more horses, as
gracefully as the famous Hank Monk.
Mrs. Langdon has other kinds OF active
business to manage besides her stage
line, and sees nothing Incompatible in a
womans succeeding in this field, in
which even experienced men frequently
find difficulties.

mining woman Know.

Herr Schaffmeyer, of Germany, pro-
nounces the American husband "a beast
of burden, always at work and trying to
make money, without a thought OF rest
ing or enjoying the fruits OF his labors
in his old age. The woman knows how
to enjoy; she pays much attention to her
dress, and even in straitened circum-
stances she can appear to greater ad-
vantage than the women Of any other
nation" The compliment in the last
phrase is doubtless intended to sugar
coat the pill, but how the writer can
pronounce our women as ''cool and cal
culating, rather than OF passionate and
OVERLOOKING heart" is not easy to under
stand. Another phase which seems to
disturb the phlegmatic serenity of our
German friend is that ''the darning OF
stockings is an unknown art to the
American woman, and that their lack OF
thrift speedily communicates the careful
German house frau who takes up her
residence in this country"

and on their style and shapeliness often
depends the whole success and distinc-

Runs = Daily Paper.

Few women have aspired to the man
agement and control a daily political
paper, but Mrs. Frank 7. Lynch, wife
Of the recently deceased editor OF the
Leavenworth Standard, has taken the
active business and editorial manage
ment of the paper which her husband
built up and edited. She is young
woman, with two children, the daugh-
ter of family OF journalists, from
which she seems to have in
herited instincts OF the true, refined
newspaper character, together with a
keen insight into passing affairs and
fine perceptions as TO the obligations OF
her new Office.

rha Frenoh presLdent,s wIfe.

Few women have more care or are
more adversely gifted with capability
than Nine. Carnot, wife OF the French
President. Her work begins at O'Clock
each morning, however late the social
functions at which she must appear
have kept her the night before. Hun
dreds Of letters are brought to her each
morning, and examined with the aid OF
her secretaries, and appeals for relief
are inquired into and answered. She
draws up the menus for each days serv-
ing, attends personally to the comfort
of her guests, keeps all her accounts,
pays the tradespeople, and disburses
her own and her husbands charities.
In addition to all this she glsnces
through the London dailies, marking
such articles as she deems advisable for
her husband to read, and during his a6-
sences transacts his routine business
with the aid of his secretaries.

The Care of Clothing.

Bear in mind that traces of mud spots
may be banished by rubbing with a raw
potato cut in half. Spots Of grease dis
appear from silk il covered with dry
magnesia, or gently rubbed with water
and the white of egg. White brocades
may be lightly cleaned with very hne
dry bread crumbs. White silks should
be shaken aboutin lather OF white soap,
rinsed in luke warm water and stretched
over linen to dry as rapidly as possible.
White satin slippers should be folded in
blue paper and carefully put away. All
materials Of clothing not In use require
airing from time to time, preferably on
sunshiny days. Laces not in wear
should be dabbled in clear, cold water
to remove all trace Of starch; dried in
the sun and wrapped In dark blue pa
per. Black silks OF every description
are much benefited by having the dust
removed by rubbing with aclean towel,
and then sponged on the wrong side
with the following mixture: teaspoon
full of soft water, and seven or eight
drops Of liquid ammonia. Black serge
or cashmere dresses are improved and
cleansed by being sponged with
this mixture-a tablespoonful OF am
monia, and another spirits o. wine, to
three OF boiling water. Velvets should
be held over the steam Of boiling water
and kept we'll stretched until the mois-
ture has evaporated. Eau de cologne
may be safely employed to remove spots
from light silken and WOODEN materials.
Ribbons may be washed first in thin
fronnd nndnr fnnGlin
Black crepe is improved by being sprin-
killed. with brandy and stretched over
wooden rollers. Black cotton stockings
should be washed in strong bran water,
pressed and dried before the fire.

He says, ''parties having silver dol

gold dollars at par, export the gold
and pocket the difference and thus
amass fortunes merely by sending gold
out of the country" This is some
''gold bugs sophism, surely not broth

ual experience. Suppose the owner OF
silver with free coinage can get one
dollar for 371l grains of fine silver and
can exchange it for one dollar in gold:
his gold will still be worth as much
here as it is in Europe, and any trans
ocean trader will prefer to exchange
his silver or gold, either one, for bill
of lading which he can sell for a profit
rather than a bill of exchange without
profit. Then his bill OF lading, and
