Spring Novelties for Ladies'.

Novelties lnnumerable greet the shop
per this season at every step of her
journeyings from shop to salon, from
bazaar to emporium. Never was the
variety greater or the materials more
beautiful in texture, c%oloring, and de-
vice. The wooden textiles of today-if
one confne her attention to that alone
have reached such a degree of rich
beauty that it would be an easy matter
to design an entire outfit, or indeed, a
whole trousseau with them. Among
other elegant frabrics are grenadine
rayee, and miroir, ombre, cameleon
aud nacre velvet to use in combination
with handsome silk orwool tissues. Ben
gaIine ondine is very effective. Eglan-
tine royale is another handsome textile,
likewise French taffeta in delicate tint
ings, brocaded with Pompadour bou-
q1ets in natural c%olors. The Oriental
dyes also are noted in many of these
fabrics, the gay mixture catching the
eye of the shopper at once. Indeed
one would lose her way in this laby-
rinth of novelties unless she possesses a
reliable guide. The Mcdowell Fashion
Journals are precisely a sure companion
for they contain the best and the most
practical information. ala Mode de
Paris" and "Paris Album of Fashion
are unique in taste and style, and cost
So. so per year. or 80 cents per copy.
"The French Dressmaker," $500 per
annum, or 30 cents per copy. ought to
please every practical dressmaker. They
contain beside invaluable lessons on
dressmaking. "La Mode'i is only $3.50
per annum, or Is cents a copy. If you
do not find them at your newsdealers'
you car be supplied with them by ap-
plying directly to Messrs. A. Mcdowell
& Co., 4 West 18th Street, New York
An exchange truthfuly remarks that
many a good item of news is lost to the
world in general, and slips through the
fingers Of the news gatherer entirely be-
cause so many people believe they appear
to be thrusting themselves on the public
notice when they volunteer information
to a reporter-upon mattevs relating to
themselves. It is not that they objectto
its publication-they prefer to see it
printed infact-but they will not inform
the reporter themselves, for the reasons
above stated. From the reportorial
standpoint such people are wrong. The
man who stops the reporter on the street
to tell him that he has been to Wash
ington or Nova Scotia, he contemplates
building, thathe is going to get married,
that his wife has company, entertained
friends last night, or presented him with
a son and heir, is considered the salt of
the earth, and he is too. May that class
of men increase. on the earth is the prayer
of all ws-gathers.
