Spring Hats and Bonnets.

The spring hats remind one irresistibly of
an old-fashioned flower bed, where the rose
and lily grew side by side. surrounded by
bachelors buttons. ladies' slippers and the
modest hearts ease. with here and there an
ox-heart daisy showing its bright face. All
these. with perhaps a few sprays Of lilac
added, make up the posies that adoru many
or the newest specimens of the French
modistes art.
The plateau is still to be used, although
most OF the straw hats are shaped The
ravorite shapes run to extremes, and seem
to be either very large or most diminutive.

back large Alsatian bow of black satin
spread Its loops, pierced by a fancy pin,
above which waved a little bunch of black

bunch of many flowers, placed low and fall

Turquoise-blue is the popular shade for
little bonnets, and is still often combine ed

Silks and Dress Goods.

Taffeta silks with their luster and rustic,
have quite taken the place Of the long-pop-
ular Indias in the shops. A year or two ago
they were only considered good enough for
Innings or petticoats, but now they are quite
the rage. Among the novelties brought
over by house well known for the COM
pleteness and variety always found In its
silk department were a number of narrow
striped taffetas. blue and white. pink and
white. green and white, red and white and
brown and white, the stripes going across
the goods. instead of up and down. Indeed,
all the new stripes are bayadere, a fashion
to make even those inclined to embonpoint
shudder.
Green is still the favorite color, and a
large proportion of the new changeable
silks and satns show q green as vivid as
that of the startled chameleon. The figures
are not distinctly outlined, but shade into
one another in a most artistic fashion.
They-the fgures-are of all sizes, from
tiniest acNrn to quite eight inches in diam
eter, the latter being, perhaps, the greater
novelty. A new silk is called the "jeun-
nesse." 1t Is of the order of liberty silk,
but is closely plated or tucked lengthwise,
the plaits standing out as in accordion
plating.
New sateens come with a border for ruff
fes or double skirts. Imported dimites
show much more color than last year. the
designs being stripes or stripes and figures,
and covering the ground pretty thoroughly.
A novelty in linen sheets has been intro
duced. They have eighteen inches or more
of heavy close embroidery above a scalloped
edge instead Of the broad hemstitched fold
which has been popular for some years
past. Sham sheet ends, embroidered to
match pillow shams, have long been in Use.
some of them being of finest Mexican
drawn work, but now 1t must be the upper

crate one, can be bought for SIS.

The lessons are varied with manual ex-

into playthings. fans. windmills, occupy
the attention for time; and the teachers
have to know a hundred contrivances for
the purpose. With the older children this
paper cutting is utilized in making paper

Ancient Roman Frontier Marks.

From the London Builder.
An Interesting discovery has recently been
made In the Taurus mountains "a few miles
north of Frankfort-on-Main) by the Ger
man imperial commission for the investiga-
ton of antiquities. 1t had been noticed
some years ago, that in those places where
the Lines Trans-Rhenanus IA wall of earth
bordering on a moap was changed in char
acter so as to become similar to the Lines
Rhaeticus "a stone wall without a moaU
there was small trench running alongside
at a distance of about six yards from the
wall. This was also found to be the case at
Hunheiu, In Bavaria, and in other places
where, at MomInsen's instigation, a thor
ough examination had also been made of
the Lines Rhaeticus. AS a result of exca-
vations in this trench, undertaken at the
instance Of Herr Jacobi one of the govern
ment surveyors. what was evidently the
original Roman frontier mark was met
with at about two feet below the surface
The frontier was delineated by a series of
blocks OF stone some distance apart from
one another. Underneath these stones were
found the various marks of the Roman sur
veyors. Elsewhere excavations showed that
the frontier was marked by other means
such as black earth or wooden pegs.

thing in the interest of a clearer understand
Ing II many young ladies used the typewriter
in writing their invitations, but, as matters
now stand, all of these things are required
to be done by hand. At any rate, If a
gentleman takes the trouble to write an
invitation to You, you must take the trouble
to write your reply. If You have no note
paper you may. If a reply is necessary at
once apologize for using business paper,
but you ought to have some note paper by
you. for You may be called upon at any
moment to drop the business side of your
life and take up the social side.
As to the Social Note.
And when you write the social note be
careful, whatever You do. to exclude from
1t any Of the expressions of the shop. The
tendency in social notes has been for some
time to be informal. 1t used to be proper
to address everybody as dear sir. but now
the social note usually begins MY dear
Mr.. Blank Similarly, our grandfathers
signed themselves your obedient servant"
or Your most obedient, humble servant"
but We of the present generation sign.

or something of that sort In official cor
respondence, of course, people have the

man makes the mistake of saying, Il

an honor to him to be himself? Then he,
at any rate, is not the man who ought to

customs used in quarreling notes. Here

1t Is proper before the matter has reached

This means a good deal when it is address

to address without any prefix to his name.

The Japanese Currency.

From the London Times.
An interesting report from the British le-
CATION In Japan, just issued, deals with Jap
anese currency, past and present. The gold
coins now in circulation range from 81 to
so, while the silver coinage includes Stand
the subsidiary coins down to cents. Dur
ing the last fiscal year, which ended on
March 81, 1893, the importation of silver
bullion was unusually large, and the coin
age of 81 pieces was exceptionally heavy.
In August last 100 silver dollars purchased
siXty-one and one-quarter gold dollars. The
sketch of the history of the paper currency
of Japan given in the report is of especial
interest, for it explains the measures by
which the deprecated paper of 1880 was
brought up to par value without resort to a
foreign loan. Between 1871 and 1878 the
gold dollar was the unit and was legal ten
der to any amount. In 1873 this simple
gold standard was abolished and the silver
dollar of 416 grains and 800 fineness was
made universally current in all public and
private transactions without limit. Over
two-thirds of the gold coins struck in the
Japanese mint since 1871 have been export
ed, and st is plain that If the present ra tie
of depletion continues, there will be soon
very little gold left in the country" while
the value of silver coin and bullion has
largely increased. The amount of each in
circulation in August last was officially es-
timated as follows: Gold, S., SSI, So; silver
$40, 4S1 ,301. These amounts, of course, dc
not include the treasury reserve of which
there is about So, OOO, GOO in gold and $6I,
0UO,0O0 in silver.

quently, but never lasts long-and the
children form in line again and march
back, singing some one of the moralities
dear to this people Of generalities.
To come into the classroom,
We must stop our play;
And each one in his own place
Must silent work away.
For never where there's noise
Can good work be;
The child that's brave and sage.
Should listen silently.
This reverence for absolute silence, IN
relieved by scratching or Wheeling or the
slightest whisper, is made the chief virtue
Of these children. To make a noise Is worse
than to give blow. To an American also
IL is curious that such little children should
be called upon to admire their own bra
very" and sagesse.
