TIE NEW SKIRT.

Elsp

Nero Like An Umbrella Than Anything
Else.
The most striking midwinter novelty
in skirts to be worn on the promenade
is the genuine umbrella skirt. This
skirt, as it is sent over from Paris, il
composed of from six to nine pointed
cores of even size. This makes a skirt
that is quite full at the bottom, but i:
narrowed at the top so that it fits the
hips smoothly with no apparent full
ness, the gathers necessary to TT the
skirt gracefully at the back being care
fully concealed. A modification of thi:
skirt is being quite generally adopted
by our best dressmalers for walking
gowns. 1t consists of six cores and is
little fuller at the back than is the
Partisan skirt Every seam in the um.

therefore it is necessary to introduce q
piping cord or some other trimming al

occur. All skirts are cut with as pro-
nounccd o flare at the bottom as it is
possible to give them. They are
trimmed up considerably higher thar
they were ut the beginning of the sea.
son, the trimming reaching to the knees
or above. AS many as seven rows Of
fur separated by space are seen on some
of the new skirts. AS single row o.
mink-tails, the fashionable trimming,
now costs twenty dollars in a good
quality of fur, as matter of economy
the rows are sometimes limited to
three.
Bands of fancy galloon, ribbons and
folds of black satin will be used in rows
in the same way us fur on spring gowns.
Small bows are dotted on at intervals
sometimes Where the material per-
mits, rutfles of the dress goods may be
used. A new rufile which reaches tc
the knees, like the old-fashioned Span
ish flounce, is cut in a circular fashion
somewhat after the manner of bell
skirt. This rutfle is quite full around
the bottom and scant at the top, giving
the fashionable flare of the season. II

stripes Let it be acknowledged here
that these full skirts are lovely They

everything that women of artistic taste
and knowledge of their own capacity
for beauty can demand.
The dress here illustrated is of black
gauze with narrow satin stripes in rose
color, pale blue, empire green and vel
low. The skirt of the striped gauze is
simply bordered with three overlapping
ruffles of the material. The huge 1880
revers and puffed sleeves are of black
beaver satin of long nap, and are lined
with rose color. The little empire bon.
net, which is pointed over the forehead
to form the becoming Marie Stuart
curve, is of black satin and is finished
with an aigrette and feathers of rose
color and black satin strings-N. Y.

BEES IN WINTER.
A Frame of Honey Is the Best Food
Them.

n Frame of Honey Is the Best Food for
Them.
The best method of feeding bees in
winter is, according to u writer in the
American Bee journal, to give them a
frame of honey. If all of the honey is
in the hives, look over all of the col
onies or sufficient number of them to
find combs of honey to give the starry
ing colonies. 1t is we'll known that al |
the colonies do not consume the same
amount of stores, and the variation is
so great that it often happens that
enough combs of honey may be spared
from those who have plenty to supply
the needy.
If no honey is available, and some
colonies must be fed, candy made of
granulated sugar is the best substi-
tute. 1t may be calsed in shallow
dishes, and the thin cake laid over the
bees and covered with enamel cloth
and two or three thiclnesses of old
carpet, or the candy may be run" di-
rectly into the frames and the frames
hung in the hives adjoining the clusters
of bees. Good" candy is also recon.
mended for this purpose Thin boards
ARE tackled to one side of an empty
brood frame, thus forming shallow
tray. 1t is then filled with candy and
the other side covered with boards, ex-
cept small space at the top, which is
left for the bees to enter.

An Indian bear story.

Along Grislcy Bear river, in the L, *
les, there are many bear haunts or
wintering dens which the Indian guides
point out to travellers. According to In
dian stories n bear will lie in IL dark and
secluded retreat all winter without food
or nourishment, sucking its paws. The
bear does not burrow in the ground,
but covers himself with fallen leaves.
Over the den the snow is often many
feet deep, and the bears hiding place is
only discovered by an air hole so small
that nothing but the keen eye of a saw
age could find it, The Indians say that
the Rocky mountain bears lie thus in a
torpid state from December until March

Homemade Rabbit Trnp.

Make a,square hole in a barrel about
three-fourths of the way from the bot

the runways of the rabbits so the lower
side of the square hole is just above

ty inches long, with both ends open, to
work easily in the hole in the barrel.
Balance the box in the hole in the bar
rel so that the outside end rests lightly
on the ground, Cover the top ofs the

\ Cooperative clubs for the purchase
of good stallion or a thoroughbred
bull, could be easily formed and be
productive of great good in many
neighborhoods. There are many farm
ersN who honestly desire to improve
theiv stock, but who do not feel that
thcylean afford the outlay required for
the purchase of n good animal or for
the constant payment of large service
fees. BY purchasing and owning an
animal Jointly their expense could be
greatly \ lessened Each man should
take stock in proportion to the service
that he requires, and the matter of
care and feeding can be easily arranged.
