A Kind Hearted Waiter.

A surprising experience was that of a
lady who received bit of advice on
table etiquette. She is sufficiently free
from vanity TO tell the story herself.
She says:
know that am not person of i'm
pressive appearance. I am inclined to
be short and stout. and to dress plainly;
still had hoped that had an air of ac-
quaintance with polite society. But
now shall be more modest than ever in
my idea of the impression make upon
strangers.
At my first meal at the hotel where
passed last summer was pleased with
the face of my waiter. 1t was radiant
with kindness and good nature. I be-
gan NV dinner with soup and fish. AS
the waiter set them in front of me he
glanced at the persons of fashionable
appearance who were my neighbors at
table. His kind heart was suddenly
struck with the fear that I might make
an unfortunate impression on them.
He bent down and whispered in my
ear:
"Eat your soup first. Youths Com

settles or choux or windmill bows with
floating ends. Indeed the floating ends
should never be omitted, as they add so
materially to the ightness of the dane
ing dress.
The particular trend of the present
styles seems to be to make the shoulders
appear broad, and the bust is held in as
tightly as possible. Perhaps hundred
or two years ago pictures show us there
was similar style, and it must be con-
fessed that it is not very graceful, but
somehow the wearers manage to look
pretty in them after all.

maker shows as the only proper thing to
wear. AS a rule these pictures are mis-
leading, for to make pretty picture the
costume has great deal Of elaborate
trimming, which always overloads a
dress if made exactly like it. The palmer
apicture looks the safer it is to copy after.
These new Elton jackets and the cor
sages where the waist is apparently cut
in two, stretched as if to fit a growing
girl and then filled in by some other ma
terial, look very well in pictures, but
they fail lamentably when put upon a
real live person. True, it is fashionable
Just now to have the waists of gowns
made in sections, but it is not a pretty
way, and I believe that every person
who wears one has to brace herself up
with the reflection that it is better to be
out of the world than out of the fashion
before she puts it on.
A handsome though rather patched
up style I noticed in one of our largest
houses Saturday which had the merit
of oddity. 1t was a gray twilled soft
wool, with snowfakes all over in irreg-
ular spots. The corsage was of rich
dark green velvet, fastened with three
buttons covered with the same. This
corsage was cut out in the neck in front
and straight across in the back, leaving
the undercorsage and sleeves of the wool
visible. Around the edges of the velvet
corsage and sleeve caps was a roll OF
plaid velvet, which was made over a
half inch MANILA rope. The velvet was
sewn over the rope, and then fastened
to the edge. Two rolls of the same ex-
tended around the bottom of the skirt.
The velvet was in bright tartan plaid,
with white and bright red and yellow
plentifully interspersed. 1t was really
very handsome, but | do not envy the
one who makes and sews on this kind of
trimming. The velvet should be on the
bias.
Narrow ribbons in several colors, laid
in shirred ruffles close over each other,
make one of the prettiest trimmings of
the season. The colors should be well
chosen, to match colors or threads in
the goods or to be an artistic contrast or
combination. Rose plating is still a
high favorite-too high when its cost is
considered. A very beautiful new tri1l-
ming in Persian and Russian embroidery
can now be purchased ready to go on
any dress, and being in threads of
mixed colors it will adapt itself to any
color and any material. It has usually
bordering of some kind Of fur and can
be obtained in several widths from one
to ten inches deep. It is quite expensive.
Hercules braids laid on fiat and the diff
ferent castle braids are to be worn on

THE PLATFORM.

Sioux City Journal:-The platform
adopted by the Minneapolis convention is
a declaration of principles which, upon
the whole, will be satisfactory to the par
ty. 1t is not extreme in its statements
on any OF the three or four principal
! points, yet it is sufficiently comprehen-
| sive.
The principal points, of course, are pro :
lection and reciprocity. finance and fair
ballot. In the platform the first place is
properly given to protection and reciproc-
ity. 1t is probable, and there has been
universal expectation, that the tariff issue
will be the pivotal one OF the contest, al
thought is not impossible that the finan-
cial question may, under certain circum-
stances, come uppermost.
In terms the tariff statement seems TO
be more moderate and more carefully
qualified than the one Of -four years ago.
1t will likely be so construed by that large
element OF the republican party which,
while abating not one jot or little of its
iaitu III pIotSCiioh 40 pohSS anu au CA
pedient. still is inclined to be moderate
and conseryative-the element which pre-
pondentes in the western and in the mid =
die states. Especially will this interpIe
tation be emphasized in view Of the prom
inence which given to reciprocity or the
conditional free listing of articles.
The tariff statement is profitable in its
candor and moderation, affording a sound
basis for the union OF all republicans.
Moreover. it actually contains the sincere
conviction of large and growing elemen,
OF the democracy in all sections of the
country.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

On the inland waterways, which Traverse
the Worlds fair grounds from one end to
another, there will be plying three kinds
OF boats for public use. These will be
the omnibus, express and cab boats or
launches. The omnibus boats will make
regular trips around the waterways, stop
ping at each building. The express boats
VIII make round trips without stopping,
while the cab boats, with carrying capaci-
ty OF four persons, may be hailed at any
point and engaged for the trip or by the
hour, as is O hanson cab.
Baroness Burdett- Coutts. the celebrat.
ed Philanthropist, who is at the head of
the Philanthropic section of the English
womeu's department in the worlds fair,
according to the London press. will cross
the Atlantic to attend the fair. and will
read an original paper on the subject of
women's institutions conducted by wo-
men.
Mrs. French. Sheldon. the intrepid Af-
rican traveller, has applied for space for
exhibiting at the worlds fair the fine col
lection OF curios and trophies she has
gathered.
Through the department of state at
Washington an official communication
has been conveyed to the board of lady
managero of the worlds fair from the
Queen Of the Sandwich Islands. Queen
Liliuokalani expresses the most cordial
sympathy with the aims Of the board OF
lady managers and announces her atten-

FARMERS AT THE FAIR

The agricultural exhibit at the worlds
far, 1t is believed. will be studied with
greater interest and by more people than
will almost any other division of the
great Exposition. Millions are engaged
in raising or dealing in agricultural pro-
ducts, and every one is a consumer of
them. Recognizing this, the Exposition
management has provided Accommodations
and facilities for this exhibit which dwarf
such provision made at any previous
worlds fair.
The Agricultural building, an imposing
and beautiful structure, situated across
great Manufactures building. is rapidly
approaching completion, and will be
finished even 70 all details of ornamental
ton, before October 1st, 1t measures
500 by 800 feet, and has an Annex 800 by
$50 feet, and q connected Assembly Hall,
which has seating capacity OF 1900.
Close by on the south is the Dairy build
ing, measuring 100 by 300 feet.
ne uOTtuCtu pOILiOu VI Tue LldlH uOOr
of the building will be occupied by the
agricultural and other food exhibits of
foreign nations, which, it Is already as
sured, will be extensive. Great Britain,
Germany, France, Mexico, Austria, Den
mark, Sweden, Japan. Paraguay, Canada,
and number Of other countries have
already been assigned space, ranging from
l 900 to $4,000 square feet each. 1t is ex-
pected that the agricultural exhibits by
these countries will be as comprehensive
as those OF our own country, and will
show some features which will be exceed.
ingly instructive to Americans.
Occupying nearly all of the remainder
Of the main floor will be the exhibit of
cereals and other farm products from the
states of the Union. Every state and ter
ritory, it is expected, will be represented
By its products. Thus, upon this one
vast floor, covering nearly ten acres. will
be displayed in all their variety and per-
fection the pick Of the farm products Of
the world. 1t is believed that the exhibit
made by this country, naturally exceed
ing that OF any other in extent, will at
tract great attention, also, by reason OF
its exceptional merit, and the comprehen-
siye information that will accompany 1t.
