Bar0peAn Attire Disp,acing the PsessS
esque Nstive Dress for the Worse
Il is q shame that many . japanese
woman of the better classes has nov
discarded her neat, picturesque nation
dress of foreign make. Dress the pref
test Japanese woman in European
style, and, do not know why, but she
generally looks an awful sight Partly.
! suppose, it is because they do not
know how to put on the dress properly;
but mainly. think. it is because their
physique does not lend itself to wear
ing our style OF clothing. Many 4
wicked story is current in Japan OF
comical mistakes made by japanese
ladies in m;splacirg tae different items
o. wearing apparel.
The story goes ot . certain marchion-
ess who. having ordered a dress and
underclothing in Paris. wrote to the
mi,liner requesting her TO pack the
different articles in the order in which
they were to be worn. The case
reached its destination in safety, but
was unfortunately opened at the wrong
end. sr6 the noble lady was seer at .
garden PARTY wearing her chemise.
which shc had put or t.p of everything
else, ss sort Of U.s.illa, as IL was
the las, tang see foun4 at the bottom
of the case: myself have seen, with
ny ovl eyes LADY, occupying one of
the highest positions in Toxic. nearly
sufocate0 through having put on her
corset tAe wrong way up.
IL is an everyday occurrence. especi-
ally IN the streets of Toxic, to see men
wearing European boots and bowler
hat, while the rest of the body is only
clad in what we generally use as under
clothing; yet those men think them.
selves dressed just like Europeans.
One of the great sights in Toxic is to
witness one of the emperor's garden
parties. No one is allowed in the i'm
perial garden unles he is wearing a
frock coat and tall hat. Sticks and
umbrellas are deposited at the gate.
BY "a great sight" do not mean that
the garden is the center of attraction.
for, as gardens go, there are many
private gardens that are infinitely more
beautiful than the imperial one; but
! mean the extraordinary collection OF
tall hats that one sees on that occasion.
From the earliest known examples of
chimney pots" down to the present
fashion specimens of all shapes, height
and condition can be seen on that mem
orable day. There is custom in Japan
to wear around the head or around the
neck a pretty Japanese towel, q pictur-
esque slip of painted cotton, much re-
sem bling long and narrow handker-
chief. 1t is used to prevent the perspi-
ration from greasing the collar of their
silk kimonos, and SO far SO good, but,
in their intention to be "9uite Euro
pean," when the picturesque native
kimono is discarded for foreign out
of-dste frock coat or dilapidated even
ing dress, the native towel is also
abandoned and replaced by a foreign
Turkish towel which is artistically
wound around the neck like a fchu.
Add to this a battered silk hat that
was probably in fashion about forty
years ago and has been neither brushed
nor ironed since, and you may imagi ne
what guys these once so pictur esquely
attired people make of themselves in

WAITING FOR NEWS
STOCK MARKET ANXIOUS TO HEAR
MORE BOND NEWS.
Hitch In the Negotiations with the Foreign
Bankers Is Reported-Belief General,
However, that All Arrangements are
Made and that the Administration Only
Waits the Final Action of Congress
Upward-Rumors of an Atchison Assess
ment--Railway Mortgages Higher.

New York, Feb. 6-Share speculation
on the stock exchange today was in
light volume, the aggregate Of the trans
actions being only about 1906 shares.
1t was a waiting market which seemed
to hang back for news from Washing
ton touching the proposed bond issue.
Rumors were in circulation purporting
to give reasons for delay in issuing the
call for proposals for the loan and there
was talk Of an alleged hitch in the
negotiations with the foreign banks.
But despite this street gossip, the gen.
eral conviction is that the government
has made all its arrangements for the
placing Of bonds and that when 1t is
made certain that congress will not
give immediate relief to the treasury,
public announcement will be made Of
the action taken by the administration.
A sustaining influence of the market
was the improvement shown by Ameri-
cans on the London stock exchange.
The foreign buying here was also good
and to some extent counteracted the de-
pressing influence Of realizing sales
which were about the only factors of
weakness except as to a few stocks
which fell off on local influences, and
Cordage guaranteed, which declined q
per cent to 16 per cent, the lowest price
ever touched, on reports OF unfaVorable
prospects of the company. The general
market was irregular during the great
er part of the day, but in the main the
tendency was upward and considering
the light demand for stocks, the specu-
lation was not unhealthy in character.

opened steady with prices from unchang-

ket Renorts from the street said that
spot coffee was easier on cheaper firm
offers from Brazil, but the future market
was little steadier on the stability shown
by Havre. The increase of 30, 80 bags in
the worlds visible supply was about as ex-
pected, previous estimates having pointed
to an increase of $1,000 bags. Warehouse
deliveries are fair but the market is prac-
tically destitute of speculative interest.

MR.. CUMso,s PIPE.
His Wife Wanted to Help Him Color
It and Hit on a Scheme.


"Wheres my meerschaum pipe? y
thought left it on the mantel, back of
the clock, when L quit smoking last
night"
'Didn't 1 hear you say that it would
take you long time to color that pipe,
dear?" asked Mrs. Cunlso.
SIT is quite likely you did. The opera
tion cannot be performed all at once. But
where is the pipe?"
You know how anxious I am to save
you all the work l can, dear?"
''Yes, just like the precious little wo-
man you are, but what has that to do
with the pipe?"
Just this, love. L got to worrying
over the long time it would take you to
get it colorod and L wondered if l could
not help you Bit"
what! You don't mean to say that
you have been smoking the pipe your
self?''
"Oh, no! but a poor tramp came to the
house this morning. He was smoking
the forlornist little bit OF a pipe, and
go on" commanded Mr.. Cumso, III a
constrained voice, trying to keep. calm.
you made him present of my new
meerschaum, suppose 2"
"Oh. no! Your little wife isn't quite
that foOlish.n
"Then what has the tramp to do with
the pipe?"
Don't be impatient, dear, and I'll tell
you. L remember what you said about
the long time it would take you to color
1t, and so L asked the man if he could
smoke 1t all day for dollar. He said no;
that dollar and quarter was the lowest
he could do it for. So told him I'd pay
him that. He's out i'll the back yard now
hard at work, and he really seems to en-
JOY it. Yet some people say that tramps
can't be induced TO work. But where
are you going, love? Not down town so
early, are you? Now, l wonder what's
made the man so cross" she added, as
her husband slammed the door.-Puck.
