fected.

Some new jet lace and beaded

She is courageous bride who is
content to discard the conventional
wedding veil and wear an ornamental
hat.
Table lamps of crystal with white
lace shades are o craze among people
who have sufficient money to buy
them.
Rests for carving knife aud fork
are now made of heavy cut glass in
several pretty and ornamental de-
signs.
Some of the new bodices are made
with a double pulled sleeve. which
can not be admitted either petty or
graceful.
Milliners are introducing fruits as
trimming on some of the new bounets.
Grapes and cherries are apparently in
highest favor.
Heavy trained skirts are said to
make the girl of the period walk more
erect and to give her the present pecu-
liar locomotion.
The newest thing in scents consists
of smelling-salts perfumed with tho
scents Of different flowers, roses, car.
nations, violets, lilacs, etc.

BEWARE OF THE WHITE VEIL.

Never be inveigled into wearing n
white veil, though, unless your face is
as smooth as roses heart, for a
white veil is much more malevolent
than the most glaring and unshieldcd
sums rays. Nice now wells are of
very clear fine net. with small chenille
dots placed at wide intervals and a
close zigzagging pattern like an edge
Of chenille round the lower part. An
other novelty in wells Is made of two
different thickncsscs Of net, the upper
part coming to just above the tip Of
the nose, being of rather heavy net,
and the lower portion being of very
thin, clear gauze with a lacy edge.
This style Is perhaps rather too start
ling, but it is chick aud might safely
be tried as an experiment from the
safe haven of q carriage. These wells
can only be worn with small bonnet,
though, as the proper mask-like effect
is only produced when brought in
close contact with the face. --[Chicago

Poney Mountain for that day. But then
we had to get back without losing any
time, and when we formed In line
again for tile last time that day, about
mile east Of Brandy Station, just
north of the railroad, Capt. Corrigan
was in command of my squadron, and
as there was not more than ts or 90
men left to form of both Co.'s q and I,
the captain gave the command In
loud tone Of voice, while the tears ran
down his cheeks, "By fours, from this
little squsd-March," and we started
for Rappshanock Station, or, in fact
more for the bridge. And the night
put an end to that long aud tedious
and bloody October day of 1868.

GOURD BRIC-A-RRAC.

Gourd decoration is one of the
fashionable fads of the season. The
designs are traced with pen and ink,
done in the poker work, or washed in
with water colors. A fanciful design,
indicating the use for which the
gourd is intended, Is appropriate |;
for instance, a receptacle for sweet
meats is ornamented with q huge
gadfy holding large spoon with
which he is supposed to be stirring
boiling sugar in saucepan. A swarm
Of flies, scenting the sweet odor, are
lowering about. A water bottle has
an appropriate idea Of sesweeds and
feathery ferna Japanese designs are
also used. A sketchy design Of Re-
becca at the we'll is pretty for water
bottle or drinking cup. This should
first be traced on the surface with a
pen aud India ink, filled In with oil
colors and covered with q coat OF
French varnish. Another way Of

WOMEN OPENING NEW FIELDS.

Some Of the most fascinating and

minor arts, such as woodcarving. de-
signing and house decoration are al
ready taught with singular success by
women, and the demand of the county
councils for lady instructors in house,

tiflc dairy work has already outstrip-
ped the available supply. Here, then,
Is fresh opening for womcn's intel
lects when the literary field becomes
too crowded, which has in its favor
that it tends to place women once
more in control of the comforts and
conveniences as well as of the social
elegance Of daily life. -CLondon

With regard to his family history he

system of granting leaves to naval Of

low the beneficiaries to engage in pri-

Inconvenience to the service, but no
secretary has yet found himself in q
position to deny the influential back
ing that always accompanies requests
for leave of this character. Another
illustration of the disadvantage of in
dulging officers in this respect was af-
forded in tho granting of leave for one
year to Naval Constructor Armistead,
who is on duty at the South Boston
iron works. Armistead will enter the
employ of the assignees of Harrison
Loring, thea proprietor of the South
Boston iron works. Meanwhile the
duty OF Armistead as government in
spector at yard where government
work is being carried on must be per-
formed by another. For this purpose
the secretary has designated Naval
Constructor j. B. Hoover, ut present
on duty at the Portsmouth naval yard,
and VINO, in addition to that work,
must also inspect the government work
In progress at Bath. Me, and South
Boston. All this entails extra expense
on the department besides losing to
itself the services of an officer at q
time when every officer counts for
something. Armistcad, it is unneces-
sary to state, will receive $500 from
the government during the year he is
in the employ of the Loring nssignees.
