garniture of bodices almost always
 consist of the airy material put on with
 good deal of original effect,
 The cream, ecru and yellow tints of l the laces are used with and form a striking contrast to the silvery white
 ness of the silk gauges and muslins
 which so often give the guimpes, chemisettes or plastrons, In addition to
 crossed fichus and all manner of dra- peries. The showy garniture of this
 pictured dress is ecru lace, and the dress-stuff is a cream tinted silk chal-
 lie. The gored skirt has thin silk lin-
 ing ard short overskirt in the back
 which extends over the hips and is bor-
 dered with a band of ecru lace. The
 bodice is side pleated and fastens at the side. It's back is ornamented with square lace yoke which comes over the shoulder in two ends and holds in place two long cornet pleats bordered with lace at the bottom. A wide belt of lace comes around the waist and the sleeves have long lace puffs.
 Besides lace, embroideries of all kinds, from the simplest to the most ornate are lavishly employed, but with due regard to the stuff they are to trim. Silk or openwork stripes and bands are best used for the thinner ma terials, and heavy gold and silver tin sel for the toilets of ceremonious occa- sions. Light fabrics seem in rather better taste when lace trimmed. Mus. lins are ornamented with dozens and l dozens of frills, each one edged with very narrow white or black lace. But ter colored guipure Is still in vogue and the fashion of using black net edged with narrow butter oolored guipure still holds its own. This shade of guipure is used for yokes and yoke collars as much as ever; insertions retain their style and wash nets are much liked in place of lace, whole, gowns being planned of ribbon alternating with in- [ sertions of such net.

Some of the labor leaders are demand.
 ing good deal of sympathy nowadays
 and We really think that one of them
 should have some. He is tho man of
 royal name, the Sovereign of the
 Knights Of Labor. In spite of his royal
 name and his royal place he Ia about as
 big fizzle as anything or anybody that
 has been seen lately. From the first he
 las evidently ached to got into the
 great sympathetic strike. He has blown
 his horn as faithfully us if he were
 selling clans. Nobody paid much
 attention to him for awhile, but finally
 Debs, who had discovered that he wns
 In very tight place, honored sover-
 eign by making tool of him. soyer-
 eign, inflated with the exuberance of
 his own vanity and verbosity, issued a
 proclamation which for solidity of
 thought and sublimity of diction hes
 had no equal during this crisis. It has
 not even been approximated in weight
 and splendor except by the mani- festo of the Chicago Typographical union. Some of the germs of thought and expression dug by Sovereign out of the deep mine of his intellect will be long contemplated with pleasure by appreciative people. For instance: "The arrogant lash of superiority is being applied by the corporations with relentless fury" or, Hike the brigands of old, they rob the laboring masses and l employ the sword and the bludgeon and | set up throne on the bones of the van- pushed and declare their divine right | to rule over the remainder of mankind A man who can think of and say these things is entitled to the respect and the obedience of those of whom he is the ostensible ruler. Consequently when he begged his subjects to strike in sympathy with Debs it was expected that they would strike. But they didn't strike to any extent. Instead of strik- ing they hung tenaciously on to their jobs, and they make Sovereign ridiou- lous by their action. He has been try
 ing hard to make the country under stand that his name correctly describes lim, but the country can't see it. He seems to be without honor or influence even in his own gang. He is not able , % pose as a labor leader, because he ( las not followers enough to entitle him ( o place among labor leaders. He ant make trouble enough by his "say 7 10" to give him the rank he wants and | 'laims. Ii
 Therefore let us sympathize a little with Sovereign. He has blown his horn |, without being able to sell any clans. t ie hasn't been able to live up to his a and impressive name. He asn't been able to pull Debs out of the " itch. He hasn't been able to show an o we-struck country that he is great s ian. He must be much disgusted with !. imself and those whom he claimed as n is loyal subjects. There is something " uite sad in the deposition of sovereigns. u nd though these are cruel and 'oublous times there are tender s earted ones who will not omit to drop s tear of sympathy on the fiat t;failure b this fiabbergasted Sovereign to make ;, pod his claim to 8 seat on a throne To- V ated on the bones of vanquished oapi- tt .lists. u

MEDICAL PROGRESS.

A recent invoice dealt with at the
 Chicago custom house has called attep-
 tion to medicine as she is praoticed bv the yellow Chinese doctors. It appears that among the tonios prescribed by the Chinese practitioners are dried lizard,
 tortoise shell, bones and teeth of drag ons, shavings of rhinooeros' horns and
 other little things. Part of the medici- nal code is comparatively simple. A standard authority proclaims that there
 are sixteen vital spots on the front of
 the body and six on the back, and in
 order to find out whether there are in-
 ternal injuries these spots should be
 covered with onions, red pep-
 per, salt, white prunes. grain or
 vinegar. Then an oi, oloth umbrella
 ii held open between the suspected part and the sun, will reveal the whole truth. As to bones, the standard al- leges that the common man has 8eO
 but that, while from the nape of a oom- mon mans neck to tho top of his head there are only eight pieces of bone, in the case of Ts'ai Chow men there are nine. The most expert treatment of bones suspected not to be in good health Is to run steel needle in them, which, perhaps, though we may affeot to despise it, may be quite as effeotual to the recovery of patients as our more complicated methods of modern The rhinoceros horn and the skin of the animal are believed to be of the highest hygienio value, Horns alone bring e80o apiece. The horn is to possess powerful antidote to poison. Tho horns of deer and other cornigerous animals are commonly used as nerve tonics. A frequent ingredient n Chinese doctors prescriptions is something known as dragons blood. however, of being drawn from , dragon, 1t A only the solution of try, resinous substance which covers he root of the rattan.

The enthusiasts who predict that the storage battery will supersede steam engines on ocean steamers probably don't know that the Cnmpania's 26, 900 horsepower cannot be furnished by batteries weighing less than 77,T5O tons of 2,240 pounds, or more than four times the entire displacement of the ship. These figures from the Electrical World show that electricians are not expecting to drive the steam engine builders out of business.
