IT'LL STAND ALONE.
w. IL. Meech's Invaluable Improvement
on the Helpless Bike.

city ticket agent of the Great Northern.
is possessed of as great good fortune as
is at present indicated, he will soon be
able TO retire from in front OF the ticket
case and enjoy life on a princely income
from his inventive genius. Mr.. Mech has
just secured a patent on a bicycle sup
port, which has already met with great
favor in the East, and which promises
big returns.
1t is well understood that the inability
of the bicycle to stand alone makes a
great deal of trouble and very often leads
to falls which call for repairs or to dam
aged walls. where IL is leaned up against
them.
Mr.. Meech's invention, by which a
wheel can be kept in perpendicular po-
sition anywhere. consists of a pair of
bent tubes which are fitted TO slide verti-
cally in supports secured TO the front
fork In such a position that the move
ment of a single hand lever will rotate
both of the tubes quarter way around
BY means OF this small lever the tubes
are simultaneously rotated and pushed
down in their guides as far as they will
go. in which position they project out
ward to the ground and form a firm sup
port for the wheel. When the supports
are not in use they shut up like a but
terny's wings, close to the wheel rim
though they cannot be made to touch the
wheel, where they remain entirely out of
the way. The attachment weighs only
about half a pound. Mr. Mech has re-
ceived several flatterng offers of royal
ties on his invention, but has so far re-
fused all of them.

OELRICH'S FASHIONS.
Another man who follows the fash
ions closely and even sets them for the
swells Of the town is Hermann Oelrich.
This gentleman divides his time be-
tween New York. London and San
Francisco. At present he is IN the last
named place. His appearances In pub
lie are numerous without beng sensa-
tional. and his description admirably
fits his clothes.
When Mr.. OelriChs appeared in court
the other day as the claimant TO repre-
sent his sons interests in the Fair Will
case. his appearance was that OF a gem
rleman who had just stepped out OF q

New York tailOrS early in the fall. II

build. he should wear a dark coat, deep
brown or dull blue. But if large a
light coat sets off his bulk best.

Tailors say that men must not dress

TIC is said that c.. oliver Iseln CORE

He too. IS fond of a dress suit. and
wears one upon occasions that do not
strictly demand them. For example, at

The reason for this is that the investi-

the white satin plainly. 1t was prob
ably intended 10 do this, as her inl-
tiaIs were upon the front flap. They
were carefully lettered in orange upon
the outside Of one OF the White SILK

dresses. They are set in the tails Oh
coats. as men have pockets, and they
are let into Sits cut in the white Satin
Innings of bodices at front and sides.
Wherever a scrap of lining flies up in
your face look for a little pocket. This
skating girl had them in her cuffs. l
noticed that she slipped the key Of her
skates into a small pocket in her cuff
and that she drew on tiny mouchoire
therefrom.
SKATERS BELTS.
The belt Of this gown was novel
thing to my American eye. At home it
would have been OF white leather or
white enamel, but here it was the
smoOthesb shiniest, white satin, spot
less and as Immaculate as though it
had never before been worn. l fancy
that the little seamstress who is a part
OF every Partisan household spOnges it
daily with one of the self-made prepar-
atiOns with which the French are so
clever. 1t had certainly never appeared
before this outing in its present i'm
maculate state. The buckle was silver.
Paris has the silver craze worse than
New York ever had it. In New York
You mingle gold and silver and the oXi-
died things in rare profusion, as you
happen TO own handsome pieces of
them, but here you see only silver, and
the whitest shade of it at that.
Little beaver hats are certainly be-
coming to pretty young women. An
elderly woman is not at her best in
them unless she lays many flowers
around their brim and softens its hard
ness with yelling and tips. But the
girls wear them constantly, tipped at
almost any angle, and trimmed with

Skating GIRLS OF PARIS.
Pretty and Ezhilarating in Skating
Suits En- Route for the Seine.
Little Toques and Beavers-Rough
Cloth Suits Padded at Shoulders
and Hips, and Reticules for
Standardization Of Skating
Boots.

Paris, January 12.-It amazes me to
see how much the girls Of Paris are like
the girls Of New York. Is it that girls
are girls for a that, the same as men?
1 think so.
At home the sight Of young women
troOping to Central Park upon a WIN
ter's day is a common and ever-exhila-
rating sight. I used to watch them, as
all others do. In Paris the skating girl
is seen the same as in New York, but
here She is more numerous. Older girls
skate, and they make more a business
of it. They do not golf over frozen
links, but they skate daily and for long
hours.
The prettiest, most democratic place
to skate is upon the Seine. To the river
from the fashionable thoroughfares
come the girls, some in carriages, more
on foot. Some in very Frenchy crea-
tons Of lace and velvet, those two ma
terials that the French place together,

ones have been invented for the pur-
pose. Satin is the favorite material,
and to strengthen it there Is a lining
of linen. The bag IS in the same con-
ception as the skating suit. The Scotch
looked quite white beside the dress,
but carried out it's tone. Several skate
bags are made in the pattern OF old
fashioned reticuleS and have the same
quaint appearance.
The most amazing thing about the
fashions Of the street, as one now sees
them here. is the way the gowns ana
cloaks are planned so as to increase the
APPARENT size of the wearer. There Is
not a sylph in all Paris to-day, Judg-
ing from her evident avordupois. Some
of the devices are funny when shorn OF
their exterior, but all are becoming
for the plump girl is coming IN style
again. Aestheticism has lost its favor
here.
The hips of all the skating gowns
are made to fare This is one in sew"
eral ways. I noticed one pretty skater
had a ripping basque, the ripples be-
ing lined with pink silk. Another had
a ripping coat of boucle, the ripples IN
the tail of this lined with white silk.
There are many hip bustes. These
are like the sleeve pads. They may be
of crinoline. or the same springs that
hold out heavy sleeves may be there.
They have the effect Of making the
wearer have a small waist and Volup-
tuous figure. With the full sleeves, the
small Partisan waist and the large hips,
the Paris girl of January, 1896, is a
model Of feminine beauty as It is count
ed in these days. In defense of these
wonderfully stylish figures it may be
stated that the French women do not
lace. They bring around by artifice
what other women martyr themselves
to accomplish.

THE REAL SKATRESS.
The real skatress of France q use
the term as one would speak of a hunt
ress ,of the Alps studiOusly avoids
heavy effects in her clothing and tries
to look as light as in summer.

This very capable skater was dressed
more for her business than the others,
vet quite as comfortably. She Wore a
gown of very heavy striped boucle cloth.
The bOucle was not too rough, but had
a warm look that added 10 its value as
a winter material. The skirt was a full

faring at the feet. The bodice was OIL

ionable winter material I should unhes-
itadngly pronounce it to be the heav-
lest one. If the boucles run heavy, then
it is a boucle; if not, then a matelasse
is chosen. As the materials are laid up
on the counters the coarsegt and weight
lest is the favor.te.
SKATING BOOTS.
Skating boots are three ply. There
are three sOles to them. The sole that
touches the pavement is a small one,
very heavy. and apparently as stout as
a mans. 1t is fully a size, l should say,
smaller than the upper of the sole This
lower sole is what shows when the
French girl skates, and Il gives her a
reputation for a small foot. Above this
small thick sole there IS a sole Of cork.
This is the ordinary cork sole used
everywhere. But above this there is a
very thick felt sole. THIS makes the
boot warm. The felt sole is the size of
the foot and the cork sole fits It. All
are puc together very fancifully, and
the skating boat IS a handsome thing.
1t IS expensive, but wears a very long
time.
Skating here is the fashionable sport
There is good fun wherever q pond ex-
lists. In the Jarden des Plantes, which
in summer is an admirable floral spot
there 5 skating in the winter. and
wherever a spot freezes over the city
cleans t, puts Il N shape, ereSs a little
skats-house and proclaims a spon. fol
the young people.
There are other winter sports beside:
that Of skating in Paris and other chic
winter dresses besides those for skating
but Of that YOU shall hear some other
tine.

there is q flower upon them. Whoever
saw a French womans hat without a
flower on it. winter or summer?
Skaters upon the Seine are fond of the
pockets that were in the skirt of the
bodice.
These little pockets are much to be

putting on hat trimming Unexpectedly.
You do not suspect it until she turns
around. From the front the hat may
be simple and quite plain. you say. But
let the wearer turn her head and
startling bit Of brightness meets your
eye.

The skirt underneath this extrava-

ne more like a hybrid plaid invented
more for its beauty than in accordance
