changes so rapidly That, DaSqueS being
out, we must take those basques, which
really are but elongated waists after all,
and drape them around with sort Of
sash in the Louis XIII style, or if it is
preferred we can make the skirt come
UP on the outside of the waist, thus max
ing it round. In that case little sash
drapery is necessary. ~
One dressmalser, who makes for the
very brownest part of the upper crust Of
society, has evolved what she calls the
available gown. The skirt is cut plain
goret and trimmed around the bottom
as suits the owner. 1t is desirable that
it should have some perpendicular trim
ming, which on the sides raises to
let the adjustable train button on and
hide the buttons after. The train is
trimmed in a different manner from the
front. Under the train is a plain full
plated back of the same material, 50
that when the train is off the dress is
walking length. The train fastens just
between the shoulders, so as to hang
Vatican fashion, and has little rosette
under which are two stout hoops, which
fasten to strong eyelets.
The corsage is so arranged that it can
be low or high in the neck, as one may
or may not remove the chiffon gimp.
If this plan were to be developed for a
married lady, it would be better to have
the corsage of the same material as the
skirt and trimmed to correspond. Ad-
Unstable trains have always had a useful
place in a lady's toilet, and it seems to
me that this is a good plan to work by.
1t would require rather rich and stately
looking material to look well for this
costume.
With this gown long wrap Of shot
velvet or velorrs du nord or of brocade
would b, suitable but no jacket, coat
or shory wrap. So taking it all around,
unless the lazy has selection of velvet
OF brocade wraps on hand to choose from,
it wouldn't be such an economy.
Pelerines of cloth bound with hand
some fur on each of their superposcd
capes are very dressy and handsome, and
make a rich and elegant wrap for any one
from grandmother down to little peach
blossom.
There are many varieties of the peler.
inc, One of the most popular is that
style worn by the young girl in the cen.
ter Of the picture. The capes come down
to the waist line, and the collar and lap.
els are of fur, while the rest of the gar.
ment is like an ordinary loose coat
Some call these capelines and some pei
crimes, but ley are equally warm and
stylish, called by either name.
During the past decade mora attention
has been paid to suitable costumes fol
girls from twelve to sixteen than evel
before. For plump little ones there are
hundreds of different fancies, and fol
older ones whose figures are developed
there is no end to the designs, but unit
lately the growing girl was not provided
with raiment designed to hide her lacl
of figure or to make the most of tht
slender grace IF youth.

His Strong Hold.

In the ranks Of q certain company OF
New York volunteers there was IN
lrishman who afforded an immense
amount OF amusement as well as con.
siderable annoyance to all who came In
contact with him. 1t was said that the
reception Of any order, save one to
fall in" for dinner or for pay, always
found him not quite ready.
He was fertile In excuses to an as
tonishing degree. He WAS, perhaps, in
several battles, but that is not Ger.
tain.
One morning, after the war was over,
this lrishman appeared at the house of
his old commander, with a request that
that gentleman would give him a bit
Of paper to git him a pinsion wild"
Net liking fatty TO refuse the request,
which the man had come many miles
TO prefer, the commander put him of
with some evasion; but when the Irish,
man appeared the second time, he said
firmly:

smile, ''it's not so much the wounds

native Cruikshank begins with a pict-
