vailing style of make is q blouse waist,
balloon sleeves, short skirt to the knee
and full trousers banded i'll at the knee,
made Of the same material as the skirt.
A pretty suit is of brown serge trimmed
with pale blue braid and made with
square yoke and rounded rundown col
lar. White and black alpaca suits are
made in this style, with white braid on
the black and black braid on the white.
So far as the distinctive details of
fashion for dress gowns can be utilized
in these simple suits, it is done with
great effect, says the New York Sun
Wide reyers shaped collars are a note
worthy addition to the simple blouse
waists, while others have a bodice of
some color III decided contrast with the
skirt, like red with white, and are made
with lace trimmed yolles. The wide col
lars are very pretty faced with bright
color.
Pale green cravanette makes pretty
suit, faced and trimmed with white.
Pale blue is used for another, which is
trimmed with white openwork enbroid-
cry. The blouse is ornamented with q
godet basque and collar, both decorated
with embroidery, and the balloon sleeves
are draped and caught up with a bow.

Pears by Many Millions.

savannah news.
The pear crop this year is the
largest on record. 1t is estimated
by those who are in position to
know and to Judge correctly that it
will exceed 100000 barrels The
bulk of the pears are the LIE Conte.
A small proportion are of the Kieffer
aud the Bartlett varieties.
Ii 300, 900 barrels were placed end
to end, they would form a line $50
miles long, reaching through the
whole length of the territory, where
the pear is cultivated on the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western railway.
This number of 100000 barrels is
equal TO 100000 bushels and would
weigh upwards of 10000 tons.
They would load sevea or eight of
the largest tramp steamers coming
to Savannah.
The bulk of this enormous pear
crop has been raised in some six or
seven counties. Thomas county
alone produced $4,000 barrels. In
one day Thomasville shipped 943
barrels by express and 600 barrels
by freight.
Boston and Cairo, nearby points
in the same district, shipped very
nearly as many barrels on the same
day. Seven thousand barrels were
shipped by one steamer to New York.
This, of course, does not include over
land shipments.
In spite of these figures this years
crop is not by any means a full one,
as many orchards have suffered
more or less from blight during the
| last two seasons.

From the Atlanta Constitution,

From the Atlanta Constitution,
If the silver standard has left
Mexico in such a deplorable condi-
ton as some of the goldbugs assert,
why is it that the Democrats of
Texas, who are eye witnesses to the
so-called monetary degradation of
the Mexican republic, should be
almost unanimous in favor of the
restoration of silver, despite the fact
that the members of the cabinet and
other agents of Wall street are going
about the country declaring that the
independent free coinage of silver
will Mexicanize the country?

Distinctive Details Utilized In a Great Va

riety of Costumes.
The subject of bathing suits presents
itself for consideration. These gowns re-
quire less cloth, decoration and atten-
ton as to fit than any other costume on
the list, so they are suggestive simply
of comfort and use Yet, with all the
restrictions as to cut and material and
the limited needs to be supplied, the va
riety of bathing suits produced for in
spection is certainly humble tribute to
human ingenuity.
The most popular materials are served
in various bright and sEbdued colors,
