sageis of cashmere, very light gray, and
the lower part is braided in gold cord.
The upper part is completely covered
with ruffles made of pearl gray NOUS
seine de sole. At the back of the neck
is tied narrow black velvet ribbon in
long loops and ends.
This style of dress is particularly
pretty for slight, youthful figures, and
can be made in any light material, being
of such simple design. Itwould be very
delicate and girlish made of white or
pearl gray yelling, and a soft ruffie
around the bottom would be an improve
ment. The hat and parasol should
match in lightness, and the whole effect
would be that supposed to belong the
often Wanted summer girl
The delicate crepons and sateens, as
well as organdie lawns, would make up
daintily in this design.
| was at a garden party yesterday
where l was the only person not in a
thin, light gown, and perhaps that is
why appreciated those saw so well.
The first, which is represented on the
right hand of the double illustration,
| was of cream organdie with violets
printed sparsely over the surface.
Around the bottom were several rows of
violet ribbon, very narrow and with
rosettes at intervals. The skirt was
| slightly draped at the hips, and the vio-
let ribbon belt fell to the ground in two
long loops and two long ends, the loops
falling backward and the ends forward.
The corsage had two rows of double
shirring and an opening bordered by two
rows of violet silk buttons. The upper
sleeves were pulled and the lower with
bracelet bands of ribbon and rosettes.
The straw hat was in Directoire shape,
trimmed with red feathers and narrow
velvet To my taste it should have been
more in keeping with the colors of the
dress, but the wearer looked pretty, and
what more do you want?
The other dainty gown was of salmon
pink cashmere, the first breadth being
slightly gathered at the waist under the
belt, and with two plaits at the sides.
The back was laid in deep plaits, puff
ing of cream colored Grape was laid at
the foot and around it twisted narrow
moss green velvet. The yoke was of
white lace crossed by green velvet, which
ends in rosettes on each side. The sleeves
are particularly pretty. The large straw
hat has pale pink bows and green and
pink shaded plunes. A parasol of pink
silk covered with oriental lace ruffies
completes an exquisite costume.
The design Of this dress is one that
could be followed in the pretty zephyr

deed any of the pretty summer cottons,
and if neatly made it would look as well
as the original If Of wash goods it
should have narrow ruffle or two in
stead of the puff. White would make
up we'll in this design.
For wear with these dresses Oxford
ties in gray or tan suede are very much
liked, but they grow shabby SO soon
that they are not economical at all. The
cloth ties and the black pebble kid are
preferable, but if girl is careful not to

Bright, Clean Baif- Dollars to Be Given
Them for Old worn-Out Bills.
WASHINGTON, Sept 12-An order was
issued a few days ago by Director of the
Mint Leech to Colonel Bosbyshell, Superin-
tendent of the Philadelphia Mint to have
coined at once 100000 silver half-dollars,
for use in Washington during the Grand
Army encampment This is supplemental
order to others given for large amount
of dimes and fve-cent pieces to be minted
for the same purpose Treasurer Nebeker
has ordered an unusually large amount of
small notes, such as one, two and fye-dol-
lar bills, to be prepared by the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing. The purpose of
having the great supply of new coins and
Treasury, notes on hand is to enable the Wis.,
itors in the city at the time of the Grand
Army encampment to exchange the worn
out and filthy small change and bills they
are likely to bring with them tor something
clean and handsome.
The merchants aud others of the city have
been notified that they can get new money
with which to make change while the veter-
ans are here, 10 that the latter can take
home with them some practical souvenir of
the Capital City. The idea is not only to
benefit the veteran, but to get In lot of
worn-out bills that In the natural course of
circulation would not reach the Treasury
for months and years to come, and in the
place of them to get into circulation all
over the country new, clean money.

whatever of religion. 1t is not, therefore,
to be wondered at that when at length q
temptation strong enough to be worthy of
the name came in his way, Reggie not only
fell to it, but rose greedIly to meet it, like
a salmon rising at fly that he is deter
mined to have, no matter if to intercept it
he may run the risk of being hurried helter
skelter down an adjacent waterfall
Well, Reggie and his wife had been stay
ing for some time in the magnificent
''Hotel Nothing" situated as everybody
knows amid the beautiful scenery in the
mountains of Noman's Land, and here he
had met the two Miss Vavasours, the elder
of whom was raveling for her health and
the v ounger, Edith, travelling apparently
simply to undergo the whims and fances Of
her sister, whom perpetual illness had
turned into something of tyrant,
Edith was about 6 and 20, but though
thus completely a woman in years, and an
intelligent woman too, she had retained all
the lissome gracefulness of Young girl of
IL. She was in fact one of the most elegant
of young, well-bred English woman 1t is
possible to meet She was not q striking
beauty in any other sense Of the word, al
though her rather large, but by no means
sensual mouth, was perfect in shape, and
hen teeth beautiful in whiteness and regu-
larity. But her dark brown almost black
vivacious eyes, her silky dark brown hair,
aud the healthy tint of her skin, all COM
bined to make her more than usually at-
tractive looking brunette.
So thought Reggie Gascoigne, and he fell
in love with her from the first moment he
set eyes upon her.
They were very soon au mieux, but she
was young. lady with religious principles,
one who always called morning church
'mstins, and believed also In the direct

SAVED BY A SHAVE.
WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH BY
LIEUT-COL. ANDREW HAGGARD, D. S. o.

Reggie Gascoigne and his wife were
travelling throughout the winter and spring
one year while he was on leave from his
regiment, stationed at the other end of
Nowhere.
He was a eood-looking fellow, with face
which used once to be sunny and bright,
but which was now always more or less
clouded with shade of melancholy, caused
by the fact which more and more impressed
itself upon him, that his wife, an estimable
woman in her way, was totally unsuIted to
him.
He had made the mistake of imagining
liking was love, and, years ago, of marry
ing in haste, between two campaigns, an
empty headed little noodle who had not
even good looks or money to recommend
her. And he, an ambitious man at the out
set, good soldier and an intellectual fellow,
became as the years rolled on more and
more disgusted as he found his wife ever
far more interested in learning that Mrs. A
was related to the Marquis of B. than if his
regiment was likely to be again ordered off
on active service, or far too much wrapped up
in her yellow backed French novels, ever to
have time to listen 20 him, if he wished to
discuss nationally the prospects of an ap-
preaching European war, or some other
momentous question of the day.
So although he went about with her, and
did his duty by her too, like gentleman,
he drifted by degrees farther and farther
away form her in his heart, and sought In
the society of other women the solace which
he failed TO find in his wife. He was not an
unprincipled fellow, but he had no sense
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-09-13

concerns. So at first his lovemaking pro-
gressed but slowly. She was, however, ex-
ceedingly good natured, and took him out.
In consequence, sometimes for walks through
the pretty pine woods which pleased him
greatly, notwithstanding the fact that she
never omitted to reprove him for his
wickedness and misbehavior, if when to-
gether reposing undsr the grateful shade of
the sweet, scented syringa bushes, he some-
times forgot himself so far as to take hold
OF her hand and gently press it with a
pressure that spoke volumes even in the
short time he was able to retain it within
his grasp. But the more the lady resisted.
the more Reggie became pique au jeu, es-
pecially as the resistance although no
doubt genuine, yet was, owing to her mani
fest liking for him, somewhat of the "pet-
away-nearer" type in its general features.
But the night before he was going away,
Reggie felt wild; Edith had told him not to
compromise her, and said that it was wrong
of him to pretend to like her, and asked
him not to come and sit with her all the
evening as he usually did; she had more
over been particularly careful OF les con-
venances all day.
This had annoyed him. He therefore
went, and by way of taking little revenge
talked throughout the evening to a parsons

very agreeably in her society. At the same
time he had the satisfaction of feeling that
