Dress Sleeves.

1t is absurd for a woman with scraggy
arms to make herself such a slave to fash
ion as to persist in wearing short sleeved
evening dresses. Long sleeves. when made
of some soft, diaphanous stuff, like crepe
de chine, draped or daintily pulled all the
way up, are always nicer TO look upon
than thin arms With the aid of the lovely
Gauzes now used for trimming it is posi-
BILE TO make almost any figure look pretty
Such defects As prominent collar bones and
shoulder blades may be hidden under a
soft cloud of silk muslin without in any
way robbiug a dress of its smart appear
ancc.

Long Jackets and other Wraps.

Long jackets are more prevalent than
any other style of wrap, but the cold
weather has brought out the long cloaks,
some of which seem to be all collars and
fur trimming The fashionable length of
jacket cannot be said to be becoming,
and it is neither one thing nor another.
Those for smart wear are in black velvet
or seal plush, with jet pockets and cuffs,
or with a rich trimming Of jet and no
pockets or cuffs. There is an attempt to
introduce nonfitting jackets in rough
cloth. Astral.ian or seaiskiu. but at present
there is not mach inclination for them.
They only loot: well on tail, slight figures,
and those figures, as Il rule. like to shoTv
themselves in well fitting jackets. The

cut from a large checked Angola shawl.

driving and travelling.

There is no very great difference in dress
ing the hair, except that fringes are fewer
and much lighter than they were, and
some are cut in point on the forehead.
This suits some faces, and must be quite
feathery to look well.

a large and intelligent audience greeted
Prof. Windsor at his opening lecture last
night at Casino hall. For two hours the
Professor spoke on the merits of phrenol-
ogy and illustrated his lecture with lith-
ographs of different prominent men, as
well as with skulls of different shapes,
thus showing the diversity and capabili-
ties of each. Speaking OF the common
mistake made by many people in separat-
log physiognOmy and phrenOlogy, he
explained how one was identical with the
other, one being superiices the other an
anaticial examination
After the lecture he proceeded to exam
inc the heads of DR.. ID. S. Lehman and c.
o. Mcclure, and his remarks occasioned
considerable laughter. The Professor
