NIDE TULLE STRINGS.

"HE bonnet with strings is again in
wv fashion. But the strings are no
longer narrow velvet affairs. The
newest bonnet strings are OF tuiie
or chiffon. and are SO becoming that
their popularity is sassurcd. One OF the most
charming OF the new bonuetsis made almost
entirely of tulle. The foundation Of the
bonnet is white satin and over it white and
green tulle is arranged in cioud-like loops.
One white feaihering aigrette is the only
trimming. 1t is caught at the left side near
the front. The strings. which fasten in
careless knot at the back. are of the tullc.
one in faint green and one in white.
Another fetching little bonnet with strings
was made all of violets. with wide violet
tullc strings. The flowers were arranged
IN punches and the stems Were braided to
form a crown.

GENTLENANLY GIRLS.

" LUFFY bangs, and even the CO.
- quetttsh waves that so graciously
conceal the imperfections of an
L ugly forehead, are, as well as the
girl that wears them, out Of date.
The mannish girl is at the height of
fashion, and she is astonishing thousands
Of her primmer sisters by parting her hair
at the side.
A ABSOLUTE severity and simplicity is the
the motto OF the new hair dressing. Twist
or coil or braid or do whatever you will
with your back hair. so long as the re-
suit is modest and inconspicuous. but
under no circumstances must you venture
TO inpart a feminine curl to the front
locks.
Lady Helen Stewart has set the fashion
over in England. and her titled friends
who are trying 10 look as well as Lady
Helen does are renouncing all connection
with the stereotyped frizzes that serve as
the badge of English royalty. American
women are beginning to take up the fad
and the tailor-made girl of the coming
summer promises to be model of con-
gruity. with the addition of her mannish
little hats and her hair newly parted at
the side.
The new fashion may not be positively
becoming To those who are afflicted with
stra ight locks. but when the hair has a
natural wave the effect is rather grace
full. TIE girl who knows the secret OF
looking well rises superior to the most
eXaCting fashion. and even transforms a
purely mannish coiffure SO as to call forth
admira tion.

Of the way to the ankles. Covering the

besques of brown soutacbe, sewed on TO
bring the braid on edge. The bonne t for this
cloak is of white satin. made with many
shirrings, but instead of falling in Mother
Hubbard frill over the face. it comes down
IN Napoleonic point over the ears and is
trimmed with bows and tiny tassels of otter

Small wonder, then, that even the man
Of fashion has taken hold OF the pipe with
vengeance. 1t is no recent fad with him,
but the pipe smoking habit in the walks OF

custom which promises TO expand to all
grades OF pipe-smokers. 1t is simply this:
a young man gives IN order to some famous
maker OF mcerschaum pipes for pipe with
the image OF his sweetheart or wife carved

money, and big money, too. but that is re-

Diffusion of Powerful odors,

1t is said that grain of musk is ca
pable of pertaining for several years a
chamber would contain 2,9S5,084 cubic
without sustaining any sensible dimi-
mutton of its volume or weight. Such a
chamber would contain 2,0S5,9S4 cubic
inches of space, each cubic inch con-
tanning 1000 cubic tenths of inches,
making in all ,OOO,OOO,OOO tenths of
inches. Now, it is probable, indeed, al
most certain, that each cubic tenth of
an inch of the air of each room contains
one or more particles of the musk, and
that this air has been changed during the
series of years an inconceivable number
of times. This being the case, 1t is only
natural that the imagination should re-
coil before attempting to compute the
number of particles which must have
composed that single grain of perfume!
Numerous as they must have been,
taken all together, they have no appre-
ciable weight or magnitude. True 1t
is that the human mind cannot con-
ceive of such "infinitesimal ittleness.

A CHRISTMAS TIP.

The thousands of Texans who came
from the South Atlantic states find
much pleasure in reverting to the hap
py days of long ago when they were
children, and often they awake at
night to recall those scenes of yore,
which gave to life a charm, and which
now come in later years as visions of
joy. There is a tender spot in ev-
cry heart for the old home, and the
memories which cluster about the
dear old spot are solaces in the weary
weary struggle we make day by day
to build in our new Eldorado a home
to which our children in future time
will turn, as we turn now to the old
place where our loved ones in the ev-
ening of life await the final summons.

oriental design and can be purchased

red frame. Bamboo footstools or has.
socks in Japanese styles still hold their
own. Though they are rather frail for
common use, they have beauty which
will last for some time if carefully
guarded. Carpet hassocks are better
made than formerly, and considering
the work given to their manufacture,
they sell for almost nothing.-N. Y,
