SOME NEW EVENING SLEEVES.
The sleeve on the left of the dia-
gram is intended for gauze or chiffon,
TWO PRETTY DESIGNS.

and it takes two whole widths of
forty-three inch chiffon, or one and
one-half widths Of gauze. This is gath
cred up very fnll all round the arm
hole, and left nearly double the length
of the sleeves. The lower edge is
gathered along and sewn to the bot
tom of the sleeve, and ribbon strap
collects and holds some of the fulness
about two-thirds of the length from
the top.
The short sleeve on the right of the
same diagram is suitable for two ma
terials, such as satin and brocade, or
satin and velvet, the epaulette being
always of the heavier fabric. The full
puff is first arranged on foundation
of less size, and over this comes the
epaulette edged with trimming, and
left loose at the edge and ends. Broad
bands, covered with jewels or bordered
with passementerie, are equally as
fashionable as frills, but require a
well shaped and full arm to prove be-
coming.

A Still Hunt for Ancestors.

It is remarked in New York that
Judge Pryor's wife has written for the
Century Magazine a paper that she
calls "a Search for an Ancestor" and
it is said the topic is timely, for ever
since Ward McAllister's first social ad-
vent the Four Hundred have contained
mary family units who have been
hunting up ancestors, pedigrees and
coats of arms. There is, socially, O
veritable craze for the latter, and the
pedestrian who may linger at book
sellers windows can view display OF
crests and notices from which coats
of arms may be made up by many OF
the newly rich, whose ancestors really
had no arms to their coats. Hunting
up ancestors may yet become a prom
inent social sport among the city
swells. Any sort of an ancestor will
do when man is in hurry for a ped
igree. New Orleans Picayune.

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 gfenadine.
The yoke is cut square across the front
and back, and at the corners OF the
front next to the sleeves there are ro-
settes 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
point in front. These are fastened un-
der the sash. This makes m excee d.
ingly pretty and stylish trimming for
an otherwise simple dress.

make when the cloth is thick enough
to dispense with lining, and then one
length of silk will be sufficient, if cut
down the centre, to face the fronts
and make o nice, neat finish. Some
times the fullness at the back is set in
two box. pleats, cut in one length with
the coat, as in the double-column
illustration. The sleeves are of mod
crate size, with the fullness collected
we'll round the top of the arm, and not
spreading all down the armhole, as
this gives a broad effect and shortens
the figure. The cuffs are mounted on
stiff canvas, and the lapels are also
stihfened and lined with silk.
A large Dumber of the new jackets
and coats display bishop sleeves and
very large revers. In most of these it
is noticeable that therevers are double,
the upper one being made Of cloth,
and the under one of lighter silk or
cloth, white being used to a very large
extent. The object of these double
revers is, of course, obvious; for should
the light ones become dirty, as they
probably will, they can be easily re-
moved to be cleaned, for they are made
separately and buttoned on under
meath.
Jackets are short, and while,the skirt
part of the backs are almost invariably
in flutes, the fronts vary to a wonder
full degree. A great many have loose
fronts, either single or double breasted,
with pockets inserted in the sides, with
or without lapels, and another grace
full shape is slightly fitted in to the
figure at the underarm seams, and is
caught together at the breast with q
single button.
For this seasons wear, coat and
skirt en- suite is surely invaluable IN
every wardrobe, and as the warmer
days approach, the skirt is Of the great
est service TO wear with shirt waists
and blouse bodices. All kinds Of
faced cloth are largely used for these
costumes, as we'll as Amazons and habit
cloths, coarse-ribbed serge, and the
delightfully."- soft zibelines, with silky
hairs strewn over the surface. These
are all sown in the new tints, which
are dull and artistic, and simply re-
peat old colorings in softer and more
subdued tones. Tweeds are also popu-
lar, but covert coatings will not en-
Joy that extreme popularity which was
bestowed upon them last season.

"Father of American Matchmaking. "

The late Aaron Dennison, who has
been styled "the father of American
Matchmaking" was man of an un-
usually sweet spirit. He was inter

worked late into the night, so late that
his loving wife would 60 and beg

the contrary, in the present headgear
