III, sm.ly BelouSinxs Of Dress,

For wear with untri,nmed bodice
there are shown large, faring collars
and cuffs of dead white embroidery
trimmed with butter colored valen-
ciennes lace. These are pretty, and as
they stand laundering well really give,
in wear, their moneys worth.
A belt and collar Of gold braid caught
with cut jet hooks and eyes are in vogue
and may be worn with any dark colored
or all white bodice. The collar is form
ed of gold braid a little over an inch
wide, while the belt is 2 inches wide
and the clasps are selected to suit the
width Of each. Belts may be of silk,
ribbon or leather. Seal or snake skin
belts with silver buckles are liked for
outing or travelling wear, and very often
have bags to match put upon them, but
for an elaborate waist q leather belt is
not considered in good taste.
The regular betting can be gotten in
any color and is most effective when its
clasp is a small gold buckle deliberately
carved. YOUNG girls fancy silver buc'
kles, upon which are engraved thei,
mOnograms. IN, these can scarcely be
spoken of as new, though they are pop
ular. Ladies' Home Journal.

II Bluestockings.

The ancient belief that b~luestockinSs
were always a%ttenuated, wore blue Cog
giles, and that we'll educated women
were necessarily plain and unattractive,
is receiving many rude shocks wv
days. One English paper notices with
surprise that Miss Grace Chisholm, a
young woman of Britain who was re-
Gently made a Phi. d. by the University
of Gottingen, is remarkably handsome
and artistic. The Figaro of Paris, in
commenting upon Miss Phillippa Faw-
cett, the lady senior wrangler OF Eng
land, declared her to be for a wonder
extremely Chic" while in our own
land such brilliant lights as Mrs. Alice
Freeman Palmer, Mime. Alberti, Miss
Evangeline Hathaway, Miss Katherine
D. Blake, Mrs. Miriam Greedy, Mrs,
Elizabeth Bisland Whetmore and Miss
Grace Gould would be notable for their
physical beauty if they had not already
gained distinction by their intellectual
ity. DIR. Sargent. it is said, remarks
hat the American college women are
the finest specimens of physical beauty
extant, and he probably is as good an
authority on the Subject as we can have.

The Vogue Of the Ready Made.

A woman can now walk into a store
and find skirts IF every description, from
Bingham to satin brocade, well cut,
gracefully hung and tailor made, and in
the same establishment or elsewhere can
easily find any style of waist she likes
best, smart, neat OF elaborate in effect,
which, with little alteration - often
without any-will fit her to perfection,
since great skill is now brought to bear
on high class garments of this descrip-
ton. Black satin or lustrous silk skirts
are first choice, and one may wear half
a dozen different waists with such a
skirt and the effect produced is that of
as many distinct gowns. With large
lace berthas, ribbon braces, fancy sailor
collars and similar accessories one may
still further vary the appearance Of the
waists severally. -Philadelphia Times.

An Appeal to the Fair Sex.

Mrs. Lemon, the honorary secretary Of
the Society For the Protection Of Birds,
asks me to publish a protest against the
wearing of bird Of paradise feathers in
hats and bonnets. Mrs. Lemon urges
that unless a check is placed upon the
ruthless destruction Of this beautiful
tropical bird to pander to the caprices
of fashion it will soon be exterminated.
The society therefore entreats civilized
women to do what they can to prevent
this by refusing to purchase "%anything
purporting to have once belonged to a
bird of paradise" I rather suspect that
the bulk Of the brilliant plumes so de-
scribed by the milliners have never be-
longed to a bird of paradise. Still I
sy'mpathize with the society's efforts to
stop the slaughter of birds for the
adornment of feminine headgear, and
so l commend Mrs. Lemons appeal to
my lady readers. London Truth.

WILL IGNORE THE OPINION.
Governor Culberson Will DO His Best to
Prevent the Fight.

AUSTIN, Tex, Sept. Ex-Governor
Culberson was seen in reference to
Judge Hurts opinion at Dallas favor-
able to prize fighting. He refused to
express himself, but it is evident he will
ignore the opinion and prevent the
fight. To be prepared for an adverse
opinion he has been looking up Governor
Ross action on the Sullivan ilrain
fight, which he prevented from coming
off in Texas, and his order to the sheriff,
wherein he cites the laws still in force
and commands him to enforce them.
Governor Culberson has several copies
of the order and it is certain he intends
to prevent the fight.
Texas has a ranger force controlled
and governed by special laws and they
can be ordered anywhere in the state by
the governor without military red tape
regulations, and their special province
is t. prevent attractions of laws. Gull
berson will probably use this force.
