The Tendency IN New Dress Goods.

The indications afforded by advance samples Of Dress
Fabrics from the European designers, that this would be a plain
goods season in Dress Goods, are borne out BY later develop
ments. Serges will undoubtedly lead as the favorite fabrics Of
the season. Changeable effects and glaze weayes will be
shown in great variety and ingenious variations are introduced
~ the new weaves, BY the combination Of plain and pile
weaves, and the introduction Of several colors ia both warp and
flllng, by which means the changeableness of the surface is
enhanced. From these combinations result fabrics with plain
grounds and more or less pronounced pile stripes Stimulating
plaits. Especially notable are the Velours phosphorescent.
Phosphorescent is . name that well expresses their quality and
color. This changeable Velour effect will be largely used not
only for fabrics with an unbroken pile surface Of changeable
hue, but as changeable stripes on epinglnes o. twill grounds.

two grains of wheat, taken from the
middle of the ear, or head, and well
dried, should make a pennyweight,
twenty of which should make an

An Earthquake at Sea.

Two distinct quakings of the earth
and consequent disturbances of the
sea were felt by the schooner Charles
l.. Mitchell on Monday night, three
miles southeast of Cape Henlopen.
The Mitchell arrived at South street
wharf from Cuba with n cargo of
sugar, and Captain Frost told the
story of his experience. His vessel
was slowly beating her way up the
coast under easy sail, when she fell
in with the tug Mum and was taken
in tow for Philadelphia. The wind
at the time was light from the north
east and the atmosphere hazy. but
clear overhead. Captain Frost had
taken in all but few light sails and
the vessel was heading north, with
both canvas and steam, toward her
port of destination.
Suddenly two terrific reports, like
explosions were heard, then a rum
bling sound, as if the vessel was
grinding her bottom out ON a shoal.
She trembled and spun about on her
keel as if about to be lifted bodily out
of the water by an unseen power 1t
was first thought she was fast on Il
rocky shore, but it was found that
the observations were correct, the
vessel being well off shore and in the
deepest water. Those ON the tug
Mum thought that one of the bulk
oil carriers had exploded, but the
rumbling noise and the period of
time through which it extended after
the first explosion proved conclusive
ly that the report was of n different
character, doubtless from earth

\ Possible mcln for Women.

Darning stockings, with the at
tendant horrors of mending and sew
ing on buttons, represents batch OF
work which comes regularly every
week to be done, gld is a sore trial
to the woman who longs for the time
it takes that she may give it to better
things. Yet she knows these tasks
are necessary, and that they must be
accomplished for the comfort and
well being of the family in her
charge.
Now there must surely be plenty
of women who cannot do finished or
high class work, yet to whom mend
ing and stocking darning, clearing
up of rooms and dusting would be
light and agreeable work, women
who, having ample time, would be
willing to do such important yet
trivial housework for the small sum
of money the service is worth. They
need not be highly ,ducated or very
young women; they need only be
willing. quick and ready to do well
any and every trifie which comes ur
for somebody to do. There are GER.
tainly plenty of places waiting for
just such workers.
We hear much of the women who
are starving in making shirts al
three cents apiece and trousers at
five cents pair The tales are toe
well authenticated to be doubted.
But surely the work above suggested
would be easier. pleasanter and more
profitable to the women who are
keeping soul and body together on
