A novelty in electric lighting Is
being practically tested in a large
building in New York city. Instead
of arranging the incandescent lamps
on one circuit and feeding them con
tinuously from the same source, they
are arranged on a number OF sepa-
rate circuits. say four and the cur
rent is alternately switched from one
to the other in regular succession,
the idea being that the current. hav-
ing heated each successive circuit of
lamps to incandescence. will be re.
turned again to that series before
the lamp filaments have time to cool
The means by which this is accom-
plished is the employment Of a
special interrIpter or rotary cylinder,
on which the ssegments are so ar
ranged that a system OF brushes.
with which they make contact. car
ries the current alternately to each
series of lamps The periodicity OF
the current in this device is about
seventy per second. Notwithstand :

times as many lamps can be oper-
ated from given source OF energy BY
his system as by any other system

Ing, and it requires careful consideration
for the use of pleasure carriages is as rigid
ly controlled by the dictates of fashion as
dress, and the reasons are as marked.
AS in all of fashions realm something
new Is necessary, and those who keep pace
with the fashionable world buy the latest
styles in pleasure carriages that every sea
son are brought out by the leading makers.
A look through the representative carriage
manufactures shows that there is consid-
cradle change in the standard lines us we'll
as an unusually fine line Of novelties Ina
traps, etc, for this summers use.
In traps are found the distinctly new
styles, for this class admits Of more now
designs than the standard types of brough-
ans, victOrias and similar styles. The
newest ideas, however original in effect,
SO long as they do not outrage good taste,
take the popular fancy.
Within the past few years there has been
strong rivalry among the manufacturers
of these vehicles to attain greater pcrfcc-
ton in the automatic seat arrangements,
and the devices have been innumcrablo for
the easy changing of these traps from four
to two passenger, and vice versa. Pcrfcc-
ton has been SO far reached that now O
child may change the positions of the seats
by the simplest and easiest of movements.

easy tops, are being worn again with out OF
doors gowns.
For smart occasions coats and capes aye
almost invariably made of watered silk
trimmed with lace.
Leghorn hats, plain or with a straw lace
edging at the brim, will be in great favor

The majority of the dressy bonnets for
summer thus far exhibited are more or less
transparent. II of straw lace or plated
rushes, the plait or lace is very open.
A fawn gray serge skirt worn with gray
and violet shot taffeta blouse. charmingly

Mothers, daughters, sisters, cousins and
aunts have all been seized with the blouse
and jacket craze, and all the feminine por-
