SPENT ENOUGH MONEY, II THINKS.

Central Railroad VIII Not Improve the
Greenvilie Station.
Secretary Baldwin of the Sixth District
Citizens Improvement Association has
received a letter from Superintendent
Ohlhausen of the Central Railroad Of New
Jersey, in which the superintendent says
that the improvements that the ~citizsns
requested to be made at the small station
which the company erected at the east
side of the tracks. will be made as soon as
possible. A ticket Office Will be erected
and more lights will be placed about the
station. The superintendent says that It
is doubtful whether the company will
erect a new station this year.

1t would be telling over the names of the
wholeof the Four Hundred tomention those
of the Sunday afternoon professions on up
per Fifth avenue. Mrs. Ogden Goelet walks
along with gentle humility with her young
daughters, now almost old enough to take
their places in the social whirl. She wears
gown of pearl gray cloth with a white
Grape vest and revers of thick white vel
vet, the corsage outlined by the narrowest
possible gold braid. On her dainty, dark
head she wears a small bonnet of gray
straw with growing flowers of pale straw
color. Her young daughters are all dressed
alike in twilled cashmere of lavender and
with heliotrope trimmings. Their hats are
large, of white straw, with spikes of laven-
der flowers and heliotrope among the white
ribbons. The gowns are exceedingly SIM
pie in shape, being princess, with berthas
of the material bordered with. two COWS of
narrow soutache.
Miss Iselin was lovely on a recent Sunday
in pale blue heviot with diagonal lines of
a darker shade of blue. This was made in
plain circle skirt, slashed, and each slash
outlined with wide old gold castle braid,
and it was trimmed the same front n
back. The waist was drawn smooth over
the front without visible darts or opening,
and a sort Of pelerine was made of bias
goods. The sleeves were double puffs. The
hat was a cream colored satin straw, with
pink velvet trimming and old gold plumes.
A small pink vefvetbeg was carried to hold
her prayer book, etc. Altogether her COS
tune was much admired.
Another gown hat set off the handsome
face of Miss MaudeBanks was stu6s d very
closely. 1t was a pale rose china silk, with
blue flowers scattered sparingly over it.
The skirt was quite close at the top in
front, but gathered at the back. On this
was set a Spanish founce, with a crushed
puff of the same at the top and bosom of
the flounce.
The corsage was a plain French waist,
with a narrow resada green velvet belt and
with sash ends held in by a windmill ro-
settle. The pelerine at the neck was of
white Spanish lace, with a resada heading.
and the sleeves were double balloon puff.
The forearm part reaches the back OF the
hand, where it flares a trifle and is double
piped with blue.

The bole-o Jacket is made to wear over
light or heavy dresses indifferently. 1t is
of black velvet or very dark velvet braided
richly with gold, though it is sometimes
made of fine broadcloth or satin, but moth
ing throws up the braiding as well as The
velvet. The bolero or figaro jacket has been
patodied this season in every way, so that
on so;ne gowns there is just enough of it to
show what it is meant for, but however it
is done it always remains chic. Its range
ofusefulness is unusually large and reaches
from the ballroom to the promenade, and
it is n capital thing to wear over a gown
that has lost it's first freshness.
In lingerie for warmer days the very
daintiest thing will be the turn down col
lars and turn up cuffs with flnted ruffies.
Nothing looks SO neat and attractive as to
see the crisp freshness of such lingerie. The
cravats that will be worn with the standing
collar and chemisette will be of lawn or
satin, as pleases better, butthe ends, instead
of being made pointed, as heretofore, will
be cut square off and stitched. There will
be no ruf1ed tempers, as the ties buckle
around the neck and are already tied.
Beef blood soft surah scarfs or blue with
polka dots or rings are to be worn, as well
as striped, checked, figured or black, for
both men and women. This is as it should
be.
The newest shoes show that comfort has
been the first consideration, and they are
wide, rounding on the bottom, or, SO to
speak, slip tilted" which rests the toes in
stead of crowding them all down to a
point. The present shape throws the
weight on the ball of the foot.
There are four distinct kinds of low
shoes, aside from the 'fancies." There are
the oxford and the newport, both as pop
ular as ever, the tan colored shoes and the
suedes, besides the new ones where the foot
slides in through a cleft that closes of it
self after. But the oxford. with it's i'm

COSTUMES WORN BY MRS. GOULD AND FRIEND.
The bonnet worn with this was of two
shades of resada and myrtle green. with
five little gold pins stuck about at different
angles. The costume was quite in the 1880
style, with the exception of the bonnet,
which is really not what / should like to
see, for the rest suggests a scoop or cottage,
or at least a poke, to be in exact keeping.
This Spanish founce is quite a favorite,
particularly for light goods. For such the
founce should be superposed. For others
it can fall from the joining without any
underdress at all.
Without doubt the hoop scare has died
out, and no woman is obliged to stiffen the
bottom of her skirt just now. Even Mrs.
Cleveland would not have her skirts Lined
with crinoline when it would have been be-
coming. Mrs. George Gould is another lady
who has determined1y set against them,
and her street gowns are modelled on the
tailor system, neat and fine, and her house
dresses are left to fall as nature would sug-
gest. At the flower show she wore a gown
OF blue striped wool, very fine and flexible.
It was in two shades Of blue. The back of
the skirt was simply gathered all the way
around. The front breadth and vest were
of corded silk to match the lighter shade,
and at the foot was a puff of velvet of the
darker shade heading a white lace hounce.
There were a dainty lace jabot, revers oflace
and G sash Of velvet ribbon. The sleeves
were plain gigot.
When she started home, she hadsa dark
blue straw hat, with pink roses inside the
brim and on the outside also, and q jaunty
little wrap made of black velvet and a lit

Shayes Her Husband.

"There is a society woman in this city
who shaves her husband three times a
week" said smooth faced man at desk
In the corner Of the Office. 1T is SO, and
I know it. ought to know it, for I'm
the man. The way of it is this: Last
summer we lived in the country, and in
the evening, three times week, I used
to come into town TO get shaved. Of
course would meet somebody knew
and often would go home late. Madam
didn't say anything, but she no doubt
kept up a diligent thinking, and one day
she said: 'Dearie, hate to have you go
In town to get shaved; it keeps you up
late and gives You such headaches. Cring
me out q razor, and I'll wager can shave
you
"Of course booted at the idea, but she
persisted and claimed she was far more
intelligent than the average barber, be-
sides being equally talkative, so finally
humored her by getting nice case OF
razors. Well, sir, she cut me slightly
only once or twice and can now shave
me like an expert. Did you ever see a
cleaner face than mine? I pay her a
fancy price, of course, but she promises
to take me to Europe some day on her
barber shop perquisites." = Chicago

HIr. Bryant's Books and the TiIden Trust.
Miss Julia S. Bryant, the younger
daughter of the poet, has presented to
the trustees OF the Tilden trust nearly
1000 volumes selected from her fathers
library at Roslyn To the books We're
added some interesting old pamphlets
and several medalhons taken from the
same collection. In reply 70 their reso-
lutions gratefully acknowledging this do
nation the trustees have received the fol-
lowing letter from Miss Bryant, dated
Paris, Nov. "a, and addressed TO the Hon.
John Bigelow, president of the trust:
was much gratified by receiving yes
terday your very kind letter, and with it
the copy Of the resolutions Of thanks
from the Tilden trust for my gifts TO the
Tilden library 1t is indeed source of
pleasure 20 me to know that these works
are where they will be especially valued
as having formed q part of my father 8
library at Roslyn; that they will be well
cared for, and that they will belong to
an institution which has my warmest
sympathies.
Should the trustees desire it, l may
later be able to make very considerable
additions TO my gift from the books and
articles collected by my father and left
to me. He had a great regard for Mr..
Tilden, who was one of his Oldest and
most trusted friends, and am sure that
he would have been glad to have his
name associated, even In this modest
way, with Mr.. Tilden's in such noble
enterprise.-Critic.

Home for Liberal Men.

A Texas paper lately assured its read
ers that ''a man might possibly favor
woman suffrage and yet at last find a
welcome at the gate Of heaven" This
assurance relieves US of any doubts as to
the fate Of our friends Charles Kingsley,
Henry Ward Beecher, George William
Curtis, J. G. Whittier and many others.
The Texan editor was born too late. He
should have lived in the time Of Boswell,
that abject admirer of DR.. Johnson, who
was present on the occasion Of a discus
sion as to our prospects after death. A
Quaker lady present ventured to express
the hope "that in another world the sexes
would be equal" and was put down by
Boswell with the retort: "That Is being
too ambitious, madam. We might a.
well desire to be equal with the angels.

then went on her way home, not even
telling her name, is a genuine heroine.

that rail had been removed on high
trestle, and thereupon she procured a
lantern and signaled the approaching
train just in time. Having done heroic
deed and saved many travellers from a
horrible death, she modestly went on her
way without waiting for thanks or re-
ward and without mentioning her name"

Society superstitions.

One Of our society girls who was mar
ried recently had her wedding gown
made by swell" modiste in the empire
style. One of her dearest friends told
her that it would be an i'll omen to wear
it, as it was SO closely allied to the great
Napoleon's divorced wife. This was too
much for the superstitious bride elect,
and she ordered an entirely new bodice
to be made.
In these days Of uncertainty things
which bring i'll luck are not desirable,
and, like being married in black and
turning back after you have once started
on your honeymoon, are best avoided
