Variety the Word.

The chief characteristics OF fashions
present charming show are its infinite
variety, its designs, colorings and end
less phases, afording an almost unlim-
tied choice o. models suited to special
popularity Of face, form or feature.
Liberty reigns supreme. and the great
dictator in dress is no longer a despot.
On the contrary, the fats OF fashion
are now very often vetoed. and per-
sonal choice and individuality in gown
ing are everywhere apparent. This
was notably shown in the putting
down OF crinoline proper two years
ago. IT is, however, again making
very unmistakable bids for favor. and
ii is to be hoped that it will again meet
It's former fate. Consistency is another
characteristic that Is receiving especial
attention, and gowns and garnitures,
Jewels and laces appropriate to theii
own particular time and place appear,
the entire costume in perfect accord
both with the hour, the occasion ant
its wearer's surroundings in life. 1t II
also perfect in small details, from thu
crown Of the wearer's bonnet to th'
tin Of her dainty shoe. N. Y. Post.

Familiarity Of Drapery.

Drapery has seemingly become quite
a disease, and like most evils the fault
is not In the use, but in the abuse. Ono
hears a great deal of artistic draping,
and the extent to which it is carried In
some houses is quite pitiable to see, the
lack Of artistic perception being only
too palpablc-legs Of tables, arms OF
chairs and every stand and flower-pot
are tied up with silk and ribbon bows,
and the effect Is anything but artistic.
DO not drape for the sake Of draping,
but when a suitable place seems TO re-
quire it--for instance window or door
or an archway between two rooms
then will the draping enhance and not
detract from the general appearance.
There Is plenty Of scope for originality
Of design in the way Of hanging, but
do not seek for out-of-the-way sub
jects, and do not carry the draping
fever to excess II the best results are
TO be obtained.--Albany Argus.
