Time was when the handkerchief was not

The actual reduction in the number of
women in the department service will not
be known until statement is made up to
June 30 next, showing the number of wonl-
en- employed in each of the departments.
The statement for July 1, 1894, given
above. shows how great the reduction had
been up to that time, and the statement
of the number of appointments to vacan-
cles since July is fair index of the
reduction which has been in progress since

filled since the reduction in the force was
made by reinstating those who were dis
charged as fast as opportunity offered
ana often by reinstating them in one de-
vacancy there. These reinstatements
ana transfers are not made through the
civil service commission. Whether there
mas been discrimination against women
in making these changes will not be shown
until the end of the fiscal year.
Difficult to Understand.
Incidentally it is a source of gratifica-
ton to the commission to find that though
so many places have been abolished the re-
moval of those appointed under civil service
rules is hardly larger in the past year than
in years before, demonstrating that when
sitting occurs the appointees from the
civil service examinations are the least
likely to go through the meshes.
The congratulations extended to women
by the civil service commission in its re-
cent report because of the increased num-

conditions of today could not well have
been foreseen by the members of the COM
mission. Their report stated that 1T was
difficult to account for this change" more
difficult, perhaps, than it is to account for
the present conditions The same unex-
pected change occurred in the matter of
clerks and copyists some years ago, before
these were joined under the classification
of clerk-copyists. The clerks under the
old classification received $1,000 and the
copyists $500 year. There was always a
greater demand for clerks and the COM
mission called attention to this fact in it's
circulars to applicants for examinations.
AS a consequence of this warning more
applicants took the examination for clerk.
Suddenly, without warning and without
any apparent reason, the departments be-
gan to ask for copyists instead of clerks,
and 200 of the despised .copyists were APP
pointed to three clerks. No one has been
able to explain the change. In like man
ner the commission notified applicants
that there was SO great demand for
stenographers that the commission had
dif1culty in filling it, and in the following
year the demand for stenographers was
only one-third as great as the supply.

A few clubmen who are on the INSIDE"
are just at present writing sonnets to and
making close connections with a new
drink, which is said to have sprung I'D in
the trail of the Duke of Veragua, or to
have been given in strict secrecy by him
to one or two of the largest American SUBJ
scribers to his bankruptcy fund. 1t has
been christened a "pomegranate cocktail"
and a man with a deck-load on is warned
against calling for it, lest he should bite
his tongue or take lockjaw in the attempt
One of the oldest Of Spanish fruits, the
pomegranate, is cut in halves, and the
juice squeezed into a glass filed with Ice
Whisky in triple proportion to the juice is
added, and the result, after vigorous stir

this in lace and silk and Jet will fill all re-
Quirements. 1t is very easy to make, too.
If you just want to feel that you have
something around your neck, a dressy
affair of silk and ribbon and lace and a
buckle will help you out. In the long ends,
that TIN eaten to grow longer, one can
foresee the neckgear of season or two ago
with ribbons to the toes, making a woman
in a gale of wind on the avenue look as
though she might be flying signals of dis
tress.
1t Is safe to say that lace will be the
chief characteristic of summer wraps, as
1t will be of the gowns. The hat, parasol
cape and gown trimming will be of lace,
woven especially in widths to suit all four,
and will be the same pattern. OF course
