Attention was called recently to the ire,

wearing feather boas. Every LADY, mar
ried aud single, seemed to be Determined u
have a boa of her own, and the result has
been that the demand has exceeded the
snnplv. with the direst consequences. Tie
rnanufacturers, driven to extreme meas
ures resorted to all kinds of eXpedients to
turn out boas enough to Keep hea'hy
street in constant futter.
The most expeditions method OF manu-,
featuring the boas IS to take piece oi
ordinary hay rope dipped in mucilage and
roll il 10 a heap of newly picked chicken
fenthers. The feathers adhere to the rope
in the required disorder, and after being
dinned in a thin solution of shoe blacking
and shellac to give them the necessary lus-
fer are ready to adorn the neck OF fashion.
Unfortunately, just as the rage for These
boas was ut it's height it rained somewhat
brisklv. and the results have been most
disastrous. .-..u,,
Vhe iniured dresses are sufficient source
of anguish, but a worse calamity is the al
most permanent discoloration OF alaDas5er

fashionable leaders both north and south
of Market street have had their cutlcle
rasped so hard in the effort to restore them
to the Caucasian race again that they can
not wear low necked dresses for the next
