Forsalsing theory us having missed the

some noticeable toilets yesterday at q

of which there is picture, had bell

with long, straight brocade coat in
silvery gray lowered with cinnamon,
coming within foot or two of the
ground, plated in the back and finished
with a pointed veAet girdle; at the
throat was double ruff of velvet and
the sleeves had velvet cuffs and loose
baggy cloth tops. Feather trimming
edged the bodice and the top of the
coat, and the general effect was ex-
trcmely smart and not unsuited to the
tall chestnut-haired woman who wore
it, though on your honor you could not
call it graceful, especially in conjunc-

UMBRELLA SNAKE.
a Novelty Much Affected by Dudes and
Their Followers

Novelty Much Affected by Dudes ana
Their Followers.
An interesting novelty in the form of
an umbrella snake has been brought
out and is described by Invention as
follows: The snake consists essentially
of circular metal spring covered with
black silk which can be arranged to en-
circle any umbrella, and which dis
penses with the use of the elastic band
and button. In using this appliance
the snake is simply slipped up the UNI
brclla, which. being given a turn or two
at the same time. is thus firmly rolled
up. The snake is then left on as fast
ening in place of the usual band which
generally gets loose or breaks off.
When the umbrella is to be opened the
snake is slipped on to the handle and
