Buttons have not for years assumed
the prominence which is to be given
them this season. Not only are those
of smoked pearl and bone considered
indispensable, but others in which
stones of every hue are blended with
silver, gold or jet To such degree
of beauty are the buttons carried that
it is often difficult to distinguish the
real from the semi-precious gems
which are usen in their manufacture.
This is especially true of the recent
importations from Vienna and Paris.
Rhinestones are perhaps the most
common, for combinations with them
are easily produced and very effective
Roman pearls of pink, black and
white surrounded by small rhinestones
form some of the handsomest and
most expensive buttons, but these are
not larger than dime. Others of
opals, rubies, emeralds and mosaics,
most of which are finished by n rhine
stone setting are very popular, they are
rich in effect and are seen as large as
a half dollar. Miniatures set in
circle of flashing stones are very fash
ionable, particularly those Marie An
toinette which are worn in crayat of
null la Potter. Large buttons of
Russian enamel, cameo and others of
fligrce gold and silver will all figure
conspicuously on the winter garments,
vests and house gowns. There are
daisies made of gilt, thickly studded
with rhinestones or pearls, that are
also very beautiful. jewelers. are
making many buttons of precious
stones, and those who are fortunate
enough to possess gems that have been
lying idle in jewel boxes are now hav.
ing them reset for this use. This
fashion was revived in Paris, and it is
difficult to know how long this lux
urious fad viii continue.

woMAN's HAIR AND CURLING roNos.


The face of woman, it has been
stated, "burned the topless towers of
Hum" The statement however, is
poetic, aud the towers that were fired
were, after all, only Ilium's affair.
But the head, which means, of course,
the hair of woman,i is now roundly de-
clnred, has very nearly fired one ship,
and may, for aught we know have
fired thousand. For it seems that
when woman goes down to sea in ships
she IS apt to secrete about her II poten-
tial conhagration in the shape of II
spirit lamp. She wants this appara-
tus to heat the tongs with which she
communicates those artless undula-
tions to her hair that the ocean air
does not agree with. SO, in the pri-
vacy of her statcroom, she fills her
lamp continuously with the contra
band fusel, strikes the careless match,
and lights the irresponsible flame.
Her things are disposed conveniently
all around. The stateroom wabbles
more or less--and something hap
pens, not in Ilium, that is quite pro-
snic, and concerns us all. There does
not seem any help for it either. She
needs must curl her hair. The only
way to stop her that appears to have
suggested itself to anybody is, that
stewardesses should be straightway
charged to confiscatc her lamp? And
what then? A stewardess, after all, is
II woman too. Is it to be supposed
that she doesn't curl her hair, or that
she hasn't a curling apparatus of her
own. We trow not.-Pall Mall Ga

Butter and Wheat.

Some one having a bent for statis-
ties has figured out that the people of
this country eat about four pounds of
butter for each bushel of wheat, con-
sumed. 1t is not to be supposed that
this amount is all eaten in the form
of "bread and butter" but the ratio
between these two articles is not dis
turbed by any variation in the way
they are used. Taking the four
pounds of butter as proper balance
for a bushel of wheat, our farmers are,
at the present prices of tho two ar
ticles, getting more for the former
than the latter; and il we look back
over the market reports for the past
fifty years we find that the four-to-
one rule has not deviated to any con-
siderable extent during any one entire
decade. AS consumers of butter wo
probably lead all other nations, and
if we could only say that we led in
quality as we'll as quantity it would be
something to be proud Of, but, unfor-
tunstely, we must forego that honor.

The curious fact is reported in the
New York Times that large section
of Burgundy, has given up grape cul-
ture altogether and gone in for hops
instead. 1t is true that the phylloxera,
which wrought special mischief in
parts, is now pretty well under con-
troll, but the Burgundians have de-
cided that it is not worth the trouble
and expense of replanting with Cali
fornian stocks, especially as France is
becoming yearly n greater beer con-
sumer, and so the uprooted vines by
wholesale are planted with hops in

FASHION NOTES.

Buttons are conspicuous on every
gown of fashion this fall.
Toques of braided felt make useful
little hats for everyday wear.
A pretty little imported bonnet has
tiny round crown, made of basket
braid, with full rosettes made of straw
at each side.
A wide brimmed hat OF felt has
thinning OF wide ribbon in Alsatian
bow fashion. There is no other finish
except jeweled ornament.
Silk or velvet of light shade of
geranium pink, turquoise OF delicate
mauve may be worn with the useful
and economical silk lined black shirt.
For elegant dress garnitures are
shown expensive passementeries,
buckles and buttons made to match,
the buttons, in various sizes, to be
used on different PORTIONS of the cos
tune.
A noted French designer uses very
pretty basket.woven silks in little
checks OF rose-color, cream and green,

youthful-looking gowns.
A handsome jacket of velvet is lined
with ermine. The sleeves are in leg
o'-mutton shape, and the fur extends
Just below the material to give finish
at the wrists. An edging of the fur is
placed all around the garment, and
the pocketlids are lined with the

A fur collar and vest is novelty.
The collar is high and wide and slight

waist-line, and ribbon tied around
the waist holds it in place. The cape
or cloak is put on over this, and with
the lapels turned back, makesa pretty

Child-life insurance was condemned

has been introduced from the United
States into the Dominion, and has
grown to large dimensions. The
Montreal Witness claims that its re-
suits have been unfortunate and sup
poses that tho business was suggested
by the old burial clubs in vogue for
many years among the poorer classes
in the great European cities. These
not infrequently led to the murder OF
their children by parents who were
anxious for the small insurance fee.
The New York Observer says; There
are at least three large companies in
the United States which have made
great profits out OF child life insur-
ance, but we have yet to learn that
the practice has been attended with
evil results. Perhaps the worst feat
ure of the case is the high rates
charged by these companies, although
there are other features that might
well evoke criticism.

1t takes down our pride to call to
mind that there are lost arts that no
inventive genius of the Nineteenth
century has been able to recover,
admits Farm and Field and Freside.
One of these is that of tempering steel
30 as to produce again the famous
Damascus blade; another has been
the art of welding copper to iron or
steel. But il is now claimed that three
steel workers in Pittsburg have lately
discovered the lost art. They show
several samples of the metal nicely
welded. The last record history gives
of these metals having been welded
was in Scandavia, 500 b. G. The value
OF the discovery comes in the fact that
copper offers greater resistance to the
action of salt water than any other
metal. The Carnegie Company has
offered the men a fixed price for the
secret A shop has been fitted up for
the men at the Homestead plant, where
the men propose to weld plate of
copper to an ingot of nickel steel
