sash. With this gown she wears large
hat of creamy straw, on which is cluster
OF blue satin loops and bunch of forget
me-nots.
In the second act a dark blue satin
pellsse is worthy of imitation. 1t fits at
the back as far as the waist perfectly. and
thence expands into voluminous fullness
Inc fronts are loose, and when thrown
oack dress of shot peacock and dark
peau de sole is seen, with blouse bodice
and deep shoulder frills of chiffon OF the
same tint. A pointed collarette OF lace
relieves the gown. Her velvet hat has
many wings of iridescent peacock blues
and green's.
Miss Terry's gown in the third act is said
to be simply exquisite. The skirt is of
mirror gray peau de sole that has the sur
lace OF satin, but falls more softly, and the
podlce matches it, but has full front of
gray gauze with bands of white lace in
sertlon. The gauze sleeves are puffed, and
are met by long gray Suede gloves. The
back OF the bodice is of peau de sole, al
most close-titting, save for a trifing
amount of fullness that loses itself be-
meath shaped belt of Parma violet velvet
The toque worn with this toilette is of
gray velvet with clusters of Parma vioIets
and black osprey aigrette.
The next costume is of pure white satin,
with low-cut bodice. This gown is en-
riched by much beautiful crystal Jewel
work, and the long cloak which is thrown
over this sple:idor is of iime-green velvet
edged down the fronts with sable. 1t is
lined with white satin.
The last clever confection is wonderful

White duck trousers with black Vlcuna

ever seen during the coming season
All the ties for spring will be gay IN
coloring; red and green will probably be
most smart. In adjusting the Ascot, re-
member to first form the center-piece or
knot. and having done this, the two ends
must be well elevated; they are then
pulled moderately taut, so as to prevent
the selyedge from falling away from the
top of the knot, and the result Will Dc

An authority says: 1.-The very best four

for from 81 up to So. These have band
twined in without cutting the silk; the
haberdasher will have this done. When
ordering the band insist that it shall be
good and wide. There is no use in purchas-
ing a handsome de Joinville if it is cut all
to pieces. When the novice becomes pro-
6cient in the tying of de Jolnvllle, he
will cease to buy the made-up or the regu-
latlon and much-worn tleable scarfS OF the
lined and padded school.
"A de Joinville will not only give the
best scarf effect obtainable. but it lnsures
you the enjoyment of a pattern that is not
to be found by the gross in the popular

TYPICAL AMERICAN HUSBAND.
The Business Man Has Little Time to
Cultivate Fireside Amenities.

The Business Man Has Little Time to
Cultivate Fireside Amenities.
The type of American husband most
familiar among US, however, is the man of
busy energies, kindly, affectionate, proud
of his family, with whom he is free handed
and sympathetic in their pleasures, who
might If the stress of making a livelihood
would leave him free to do so, enjoy do
nestle life heartily, and aid in bringing
the married state to be what good old
Dicky Steele described it in the Tattler:
"a complication of all the pleasures OF life
and retreat from its inquietudes." But,
alas! under the conditions of modern
monev-grubbing what opportunity has
the poor man to cultivate tireside amenI-
ties and hang garlands upon the Lares of
his hearth? In New York, for instance,
he hurries away from home directly after
eating hasty breakfast, to return to it
late in the day, tagged from the incessant
and nervous grinding of the mill down
town, and ravening for his dinner.
AT such moment, all the charms and
all the virtues com bined in one wife
often cannot win smiles or playful speech
from any husband so beset; and wise
woman effaces herself until the post-pran-
dial hour gives her a reasonable hope of
claiming his conversation. At this period
OF the evening, unless she is mere
monger OF nursery gossip or a household
drudge, her spirit, braced and expanded
by the idea of independence and response
bility, is eager for the fray of ideas. She
longs for the interchange of sentiment on
current TOPICS while her heart Tan organ
among our wives apt to be fairly well
stored with conjugal affectlon) owns to
little joyous thrill of satisfaction in the
tete-a-tete that has lost nothing by years
of repetition. To it, even the grown chill
dren are an interruption; and she sees
them go their several ways in search of
more active entertainment with almost
sigh of satisfaction What, at this inter
esting juncture, is the attitude of the ideal
husband? What, of the real husband?
These are queries to be answered by obser-
vation or by experience.-North Ameri-

FOR MEN.

The mania for collecting posters has
reached here and many Bachelors dens
are being adorned with odd ones. Not
only the best to be found in San Francisco
are in evidence, but also many from Paris,
some strikingly original.
For men some attractive articles in silver
have lately been put on the market, ch
as TASKS, the silver cups of which are
adorned with spurs, whips, crops and
horseshoes; a cigar-case is to be had on
which is engraved jockey mounted on a
whip.
1t is strange but true that most Ameri-
lean shirtmakers still insist on making
shirts with small, little cuffs that reveal
part of the shirt sleeves every time the
hand is elevated.
Business coats are made like shooting
coats, with three buttons, not abruptly
cutaway, but more like sack coat-the
pockets with flaps, single-breasted and a
notched collar. They may be of mixed
goods or of black vicuna.
