cHIcAGo,s SOCIAL STAR.

Mr.. Chatfield Uhatfield d Taylor, n Useful
and Ornamental Young Msn.
New York ia envious of Chicago on
still another count, the young social
leader, Hobart Chstfield Chatfeld- -Tay-
lor, Spanish consul in Chicago. Having
the first opportunity to impress the ma
tion's foreign guests, the great city on
the eeaboard looked confidently to Ward
McAllister and Ollie Teall or any of lts
other social authorities to look after the
city's honor, but in vain. New York
proved itself socially wanting, and upon
poor Mayor Gilroy devolved all the re-
eponsibility of personiiying the wealth
and culture of New York.
In the meantime Chicago lay low and
said nothing. When arranging for the
exposition, it wac represented to the
Spanish nation thot she needed a cred
liable representative on the scene when
her great people should arrive here, and
Chicago recommended one of her own
natives as being an eminently qualified
person for the important post. In this
way Mr.. Taylor was appointed conaul,
and when the duke of Veragua and the
Infsnts Eulalie arrived in the western
city, they found awaiting them an ex.
ceedingly handsome and agreeable
young man who know all about Chicago
who was unwearied in his efforts tc
make them comfortable, and who
promptly superseded the governments
commanders in the affections of the ma
tion's guests.
Mr.. Hobart IChatfeld Chstfeld-Tay
lor is a native of Chicago, fact o
which he is inordinately proud, and h'
lived there most of his twenty-eigh
years. His father, manufacturer, lef

Whether they are worn by the domes-

unpleasant emusic wherever she goes"
or by the deacon who walks up the aisle
during the solo of the sweet voiced
soprano there is no greater nuisance
than a pair of squeaky shoes. If the
case is SO desperate that oiling thorough
ly around the sole where it joins the
upper and then immersing in hot water
for half an hour does not cure it, with
tiny awl bore two or three small holes
through the lower layer of the sole, and
with an oil can having n very fine nozzle
insert drop or two of oil-in fact, rs
much as the spot will absorb--and you
may go on your way noiseless but re-
jocing.

these satins is almost marvellous when
the price at which they are to be sold is
taken into consideration.
Private advices from the foremost

pect full and rather longer skirts, with
meEely an aocentuation of the trimmings
and shape now worn.
Marrow bands of velvet headed by
beading, fine ruffies and other garniture
will be worn on them, and in the case Of
one magnificent gown now being fin
ished for an American lady there is a
deep applique embroidery of black vel
vet outlined by fine cut jet beads around
the bottom of a superb black satin. Some
few of the new dresses are to be made
with a stomacher point and small pan
piers, at the same time preserving the
general idea of the 1880 styles.
Heavy bengaline and corded silk will
be used for full costumes, and velvet and
plush will be popular garnitures, to be
replaced later with fur.

Directions For Making 1t Appear Cool
During the Sultry Days.
Fishnet drapery or vatican netting is
excellent for summer homes and is much
In use by women who understand the
art of making the home attractive dur
ing the long, warm days. It can be
found In all good colors and is low in
price, so there is no reason for its fail
ing to find general recognition. 1t hides
ugly doorways and uncompromising
window easements under soft folds and
graceful lines without cutting off one
Whit of the summer breeze and is
heartily to be commended even were its
claim to beauty less by far than it real
~ is.
Green shades are once more securing
the patronage they deserve. No better
medium for subduing the glare of sum-
mer has been devised, and no better col
or than that which nature chooses can
well be found
Graceful draperies for the windows
and doors promise to be much used and
to greatly relieve the badness felt when
the heavy hangings are removed. They
are of madras muslin, of silk, of siko-
line or of simple cotton stuffs, as the
case may be, but whether tho material
be rich and costly, or only effective and
low priced, the result is much the same.
A length Of three yards or more, ms the
width of the framework demands, is
draped on and from the pole and forms
a sort of valance or lambrequin which
hides ugly straight lines from view and
yet leaves the passageway quite free.
Chinese and Japanese rugs Of simple,
inexpensive cotton and jute are shown
in fascinating colors and designs. In
the larger sizes they are delightful for
the center of the stained floor or for use
over mating of plain weave, and Of
smaller dimensions they make ideal pi-
azza cushions on which to make ones
self comfortable without the formality
of either a chair or settee.
Really perfect chairs for the cottage
home can be made from the simple, in
expensive shaker models that can be
bought at any shop for an extremely
low price. One clever woman has gone
so far as to paint over the pine frames
of at least a dozen chairs and divans
with delicately tinted enamel paint and
has fitted each with soft cushions of
Grape cloth in corresponding tints till
now her home offers comfort in every
room.
