And the third smiling maiden was
robed in heavy white satin; and the
satin was embroidered somewhat like
the first, except that il was all creamy
white, leaves as well as blossoms. Her
bodice was folded and crossed in front,
fastening at the side. An overpow-
ering train fell about her feet in heavy
folds.
Listen to this description of a new
street dress dark green camel's hair,
of a very fine quality, is the material,
and the skirt has three rufiles Of velvet
to match, standing very far apart. The
plain tight-fitting corsage is covered by
a loosely-gathered green silk fchu,
crossing in front, and caught down a
triflc below the waist line by a velvet
bow. Where the fichu stands apart at
the neck one can see a plain velvet
yoke. headed by velvet collar. The
leg-of-mutton sleeves are also velvet,
and so is the rather short, full cape
hanging over the gown, which has a
short collar cape also, edged with
sable. The high rolling collar is lined
with sable which comes down the
front a little way, giving a soft, warm
effect. EVA A. SCHUBERT.

clare such positive war against the EN-.
pirc that il was relegated to the domain
of the ballroom and the parlor only and

The ~drapings are caught with big velvet
bows and in each bow nestles a bird,
with beautiful green and red plumage.
The gauze drapes itself over the shout
ders as well, and among the full folds
we see two more of the birds. The idea
will. no doubt, be taken up. and may
bring back the bird craze as strong as
ever.
The purple fad is still on us. We are
completely carried away with il. In
fact, If il keeps on the storekeepers will
be IN despair, for there will be no way
of disposing of all the materials that
were unfortunately dyed in some other
color. Violets are everywhere again,
On hats, gowns and mufs. 1t is a pity
they cost SO much, but this fact seems
TO count for .ttle, and to diminish their
prevalence no whit. Great fat felt hats
twisted in fantastic shapes, with purple
felt beneath and black above, are cov
cred with nothing but large, dropping
clusters of the pretty blossoms. The
velvet ones are most graceful aud have
sach a genuine droop TO them that they
are often mistaken for the real. No
matter that the cold weather has
brought the real mp to six cents each,
we see them pinned on muffs and velvet
capes. There's nothing like the effect
of a bunch of violets on sealskin or any
rich, dark fur. Even though lilies of
the valley and fne white blossoms have
been declared the order of the day, the
violet is just as beloved as ever.

An Amusing story That Is Circulated
Concerning Nine. Patti.


An anecdote has been travelling round
the circles of the Black Bay which has
created ripples of merriment whenever
1t was told. 1t appears while Nine.
Patti was over here and was suffering
from the bereavement of her lear dog,
at the same hotel there sojourned Mrs.
Iyasagi and her little daughter, who
had just returned from a trip to Cali
fornia, and who were waiting for their
house to be put in order. The great
diva was nervous and anxious, the loss
Of her favorite having played havoc
with her nerves, and she thought hat
the romping and merriment of the lit
tie girl in the next suite OF rooms was
particularly trying on her sensitive
temperament.
Accordingly her maid presented her
self at Mrs. lyasagi's door, and, present
ing madame's compliments, requested,
if possible, to restrain the young lady
from being more lively than necessary.
Madame says" she added, 1.-The death
of her dog is a very great sorrow TO
her; she has not gotten over il yet. and
IL ST. gets too excited she could not
sing"
The message was received with all
the grace such neighborly messages are
usually received with, and was subse-
queutly related TO the young lady per-
~sonally concerned in the matter. She
listened, pouted prettily and then said:
"Oh, mamma! will you send up and tell
Nine. Patti not to sing so much, be-
cause my alligator is sick. and IL he
dies I'll he ever so much worried over
IT," IL has not transpired whether the
appeal ever reached the diva.-Boston
