One Of the two greatest pipe collectors
who ever lived was the Marquis de Wa
treville, whose smoking room in Paris had
the walls covered with costly types, some
of them worth, II is claimed as much as
$4,000, and all arranged with great beauty
OF design. The other was the well known
Capt. Bragge OF London whose collection
was valued at $4,000, who had agents In
every part of the known world. ana
whose collection was deemed worthy in
1889 of being made a special exhibit dur
ing the summer season at the Crystal
Palace. Prince Bismarck is a great pipe
collector, and the gem OF his collection
has a curious history. Many years ago.
as Bismarck was strolling in the suburbs
of Friederichsruhe with his two hounds
he was accosted by a Bohemian peddler
and asked 10 buy a plain meerschaunn
pipe Of the type that Bismarck most ar
fected. At first Bismarck declined but
the peddler claimed for the pipe the power
of forecast, and told him he would serve
three emperors as minister and that three
important changes in his life would be
foretold by accidents Detailing the pine
Laughing, Bismarck bought the pipe He
has since served three emperors Two
days before the historic moment when he
was refused an audience the stem of his
pipe separated and came to pieces. Later
he Clipped a piece from the side of the
bowl, and within a month he was prac-
tically dismissed by the present emperor.
The third sign has yet to come.

FASHIONABLE FLOWERS.

Now that society has begun to dance,
attend the opera, and regale itself with
theater parties and dim crs galore,
flowers occupy not a little of their at
tentiOn
In the social world the fashions in
flowers must be observed just as carefully
as the fashions in gowns. If a rose is out
OF fashion it must be summed, no matter
what its fragrance or its beauty Of color
ing. only the fashionable flowers receiv.
the smiles OF society.
The newest idea in opera bouquets,
whether for maid or matron, is TO have
them made of flowers matching in color
the gown with which they are carried.
They are tied with broad sashes of
watered ribbon. Satin ribbons are 20
longer considered the proper thing. With
deep red gown Jacqueminot roses are
carried, with pink frock La France
roses, and huge punches OF violets with
violet and mauve costumes. The sash
ribbons must always match in color the
flowers around which they are tied This
produces beautiful harmony of color.
There is a new rose in town, and ii bids
fair to rival all its predecess ors 1t bears
President Carnot. 1t is a ToSe of ex-
quisitely delicate coIoring, and its petals
shade from pink into salmon. With the
exception of the quecnly American Beauty,
it stands straighter than any ether rose.
The fact that its stem is large and free
from tEorns is much in its favor. Fleisch-
man, the fashionable florist, believes there
is a great future for the President Canot
ceiyes for it daily.
But there is no rose in the land which
can supplant the violet in the affections
OF the society woman. Its coloring, its
fragrance, its refinement, give it the first
place of honor. Then the fact that a
bunch of yiolets may be worn on almost
any occasion and not be out OF place is an
advantage which it has over many other
flowers. Violets should always be worn
so that their stems are covered. This may
be done by lace frill or the lapel Of the
coat.
Violets for the opera cost from So to $40
bunch, for evening wear from So to So,
but for 81 a bunch can he bought which
is quite large enough to wear in the
street
Chrysanthemums are not so fashionable
this season as they have been other years
Though effective for decorative PURPOSES
they are too conspicuous for street or
evening wear
Almost as much care is expended on
the selection of the boxes in which the
flowers are sent this season as on the
flowers themselves. The very latest box
for flowers is a French paper box in a
faint color and stamped with a flower
design. The flowers which decorate the
box are frequently as large as the reai
ones beneath the cover. To add to their
beauty, these boxes are tied with broad
ribbons.
Boutonnieres are growing larger. The
newest is formed of three white carnations
