of grenadine has fringe of black cord
silk with alternate strands of very fine
jet tipped with arrow-shaped beads.
With this sash is worn an adjustable
yoke of black velvet and grenadine.
The yoke is cut square across the front
and back, and at the corners of the
front next to the sleeves there are ro-
settles of the grenadine with long tas-
sells of silk and Jet to match the fringe
of the sash. From beneath these tas-
sells there are velvet straps that ex-
tend to the waist line, meeting in a
point in front. These are fastened un-
der the sash. This makes an exceed
ingly pretty and stylish trimming for
an otherwise simple dress.

QUEER ADVERTISEMENTS

Some of the Remarkable Announcements
That Appear In Austrian Papers.
Austrian matrimonial advertisements
according to contemporary CORE
spondent at Vienna, are marked by an ac-
eeptable humorous audacity. Here, for
instance, is one that ran for six or seven
days: "Wanted. rich lady, no mat
ter how old, who will finance a stu
dent of medicine until such time as he
obtains his degree, when he engages to
marry his benefactress.
And another is quoted wherein a
young prince seeks a handsome girl with
a dowry of not less than e250, 900.
When the desired mate is obtained,
all ones needs are apparently satisfied,
Judging from this advertisement for a
purchaser for "a we'll trained monkey.
q talkative parrot and a beautiful SYM
pathetic cat, which belongs to lady,
who, owing to her approaching mar
riage, has no further use for them.
The most amusing of the ADVERTISE
ments quoted by our contemporary is,
however, that of the very Irish peru
quier, who makes wigs for 'smen Of ill.,
tellect, philosophers, scholars and poll
ticians, whose severe mental labor in
the cause of humanity has filed their
