forms, SO trying on perfect young form,
on the old merely show off defects. An old
ladv's dress should not, by copying the
young, provoke invidious contrasts. All,
you say, but she wants to make believe she
| is Young. But how much better it would be
to be beautifully old than artiicially, young.
Drop the idea of youth, Madam, and cultl-
vate the one OF beauty.
Biases are for the purpose Of narrowing
the waist below the bust, but If the bust
is gone, and the abdomen grown large they
are an absurbity, and if such waist is tight
and short it only exaggerates these defects
The waist should not decrease, but grow
larger as it decends, and it should be long
enough to reach the widest part of the pro-
file. This will allow the skirt to fall
straight, whereas, with the other waist, the
skirt desribes curve and falls IN at the
feet
The whole d,ess should have amplitude,
full waist, full sleeves The sleeves by
falling in wrlnkled or twisted folds will
add the fe1ibility and grace lost by the
arms. The dropping shoulders should have
high sleeve borders, and the neck lace boas
A dress illustrating this idea is of light
weight soft silk, with a brocaded leaf and
trimmed at neck, sleeves and shoulders with
fringed silk ruchings. The waist and skirt
are plated and sewed together, and soft
cord is knOtteQ around bne WdlSt anu uOluS
up handkerchief bag.
The dressmaker would call this gown
rank heresy, and perhaps the old lady who
wore tight staysin her youth will agree
with her She says that the proper dress is
long pointed basque and good skirt demi-
trained. 1t should be high in the neck and
long on the hands, and should have large
and convenient pocket. The princesse, she
says, is good model, and also the Louise
Quinze jacket
A princesse folded over in surplice fash
ion for a slender woman is of soft, wavy
crepon, with sleeves, neck and petticoat of
velvet One of the illustrations shows a
rich cape of lace and velvet, with yoke of
passementerie. For shoulder wrappings

length capes gathered at the neck, with

very essence of simplicity and beauty.

on a soft blending like that in ancient

about color, and since We none OF us under

 WASHINGTON, Jan. The Presidents retaliatory proclamation under the reel procity section of the tariff act will be issued on March 15. The Attorney Gen. eral has given an opinion that the duties must attach and be collected on and after the date Of the proclamation, and that a future day cannot be named by the President.
 Secretary Blaine yesterday sent notes to the diplomatic representatives of Austria Hungary, Colombia, Huyti, Nicaragua, Honduras, Spain, Philiipine lslands) and Venezuela informing them that on March 15 next the President would issue his proclamation, unless in the mean time some satisfactory reciprocity ar rarGament should be made with the couatrits named, suspending the provis- ions Of the tariff law relating to the free introduction into the United States of sugars, moazses, coffee, ten, and hides exported from such countries, and that on and after that date the duties fixed in section g of the tariff would be imposed.
 The notice to Spain only applies to the Phillipiue Islands. Negotiations with France and some other countries have reached such & stage as, in the opinion of tho President, to warrant the Secretary of State in withholding notice to them of proclamation affecting their pro

That is What Speaker Crisp Is Suffering
 From---Reported Better
 WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-It is impossible to get at the exact truth about the illness of Speaker Crisp. His physician states that Ec is rapidly improving and i' all right but he stated this two weeks ago, and denied the accuracy of the dispatch stating that the Speaker would not pre- side in inc House.
 The physician states that t!lc Speaker has br,u suffering from q mere attack of the pr, vailing grip. It is rUn."rcd, how ever, that nervous exhaustion is be real name Ur the ailmeut, and that ho is in such 2 weak state that his friends are seriously alarmed. Two or three times he has been threatened, and his son does net hesitate to state that his father passsd a very bad night.
 Indeed. on Tuesday his luHSs threat encd to All up, and the coughing spoil brought on by the attempt to clear the passage left the patient utterly ex- hauGted.
 Mr Crisp has now besn in bed for two weeks, and the doctor says he must re- main in the house for at least two weeks more.
 IL is perfectly clear that it is not so much the grip as the shock to the nervous and physical system following he long Speak ership fight and the subsequent work in arranging the committees that has laid the Speaker low, and he will re- ouiru a long time and careful nursing to recover his health and strength. It was stated this morning that Mir Crisp is better than he was, but is still weak.

THE Republican lays the blame for the present condition of affairs in the general assembly, upon the senate, which it says is sullen, mulish and surly. Such is not the fact. The con- stitution commands the general assem- ply to declare the persons having a majority of votes, elected. The framers of the constitution never intended that the general assembly should monkey with the vote as shown by the face of the returns. It prescribes the manner by which the votes shall be counted and the official return made to the 'legisla- turs. It is the clear duty of the house to declare such result, and if the de, feated candidates have grievance quo warranto proceedings may be brought. We hold that the republicans of the house are responsible for blocking the public business for year.

 WASlINGToN, Jan. S.-The apprehen- sicns that the friends of Secretary Blaine have over his sudden attack have been somewhat allayed by the information given to those who called at his resistance that the Secretary had been resting quietly all night and is very much i'm proved. Mrs. Blaine receives nearly all callers and answers cheerfully questions concerning her husbands illness. From her account of the SeCretary's illness, it is only temporary in it's character, and her conversation leads hearers to believe that he will be up and about within day or two.
 The distinguished patient had little medical attendance yesterday. His phy- sician. Dr. Hyatt, paid visit and con cluded that the Secretary needed rest more than medicine. From reliable sources it is learned that the alleged serious nature of the attack seems to be more iinag aginary than real. Mir. Blaine's long illness during last spring and sum mer has made him dread a recurrence of confinement, and this fear has unnerveC him to such an extent that he looks or his present indispo5ition in a much more alarming light than his real condition warrants. The aim of his physician and his family at present is to disabuse his mind of the thought that his illness vii result seriously, and beneficial effects are looked for from the rest which he has hoH

In an interview the Senator said Blaine could have the nomination for President at the coming Republican Convention if he wanted it., but on account of his health it was a question whether he should accept it., Harrisou should be the next choice as he gave the people good, sound Republican administration. In regard to the Demo cratic nominee he thought Carlisle should be the Democratic candidate for Presi- dent.
