To Prevent a Cock From Growing at Dawn.
 The bird cannot crow unless he is able to stand erect and raise his head to the fullest extent. Now, if plank, or even a lath, be placed above his perch so that he cannot gain an upright position, he cannot possibly lift up his voice, but, on the contrary, must remain dumb.

Fashion Notes.

Walking dress skirts are usually made quite plain, frequently only finished with few rows of stitching above the hem, but many rows of plain, fancy or waved braid are often seen, also small gathered or plaited f1ounces or bands of velvet.
 The newest thing in underwear is nuns yelling, which shows off lace trim mings to great advantage.
 Dimity or firmly woven percale is the material much used in some of the new wash skirts.
 Chemises for slight women have quite replaced the close fitting silk vest and are much more convenient, as they can be used as 9 cover for corset also, in which case the silk vest continues to be used.
 A very fashionable trimming consists in carrying the braid or fur or jet passe- menterie lengthwise of the seam of the skirt, finishing with a narrow band around the bottom.
 In Paris hats and bonnets are gradual ly growing larger. The Amazone hat is worn with tailor gowns and walking toilets generally.
 Bonnets are trimmed with bouquets of Parma violets on the front and sides and finished high in the back with the Virot bow, which rests on the coiffure.
 The shoehorn, with buttoner attached, is great scheme.
 The new silver buckles are round and oblong, with sides curving inward. a graceful shape.
