blue and green is the favorite mixture of
colors. 1t is seen in all the newest -na-
terials, and it forms a feature of the new
millinery as we'll as of dress. Canvas,
terials of the moment.
Skirts differ very little in appearance
from those of last year, but they are never
theless somewhat modified in reality.
There is reasonably wide choice in cut,
some skirts being very close about the hips
and flaring at the foot in decided bell
shape, while others are composed of seven
or nine breadths, according to the size of
the person who is to wear them. The reg
ulation skirt is even around the foot and
reaches just to the ground. In a few cases
circular trimming is applied in the form
of narrow bands of material, galloon, rib
bons, narrow ruffles or puffs, extending up
to the hips, but in the majority of cases
the skirt is plain. Lengthwise trimming
is also employed and is usually fat.
The illustration shows a costume of
violine peau de sole. The godet skirt is
adorned with fat bands of violine velvet
extending the full length. The bodice of
violine velvet is pointed in front and has
a short ripple basque at the hips and back.
A large collar of white faille comes down
to the waist in a point in front. The col
lar is enriched by embroidery and opens
in front over small plastron of violine
silk gauze framed by velvet revers. The
point of the collar is edged by plating
of violine gauze. The sleeves are Of peau

limited in its correct use to deInitoilet the
theater and house wear. It Is not used for

Louis Quinze coat of fine brOcade or brOche
silk. This may very properly accompany

may be of different material, but 1t Is
usually of the same tint as the skirt even

Among the new trimmings seen this
summer are an immense assortment of ap
plications of white cream or yellow lace on
black mousseline de sole, Grape, tulle and
similar fabrics, while, inversely, incrusta-
lions of black jet and brilliant spangles
appear on heavy white and tinted gnipure.

The draped collar is of the same material.
The chemisette is framed by revers of light

Ways OF the Moose,

Ambrose seemed to know great deal
about moose, after all. He told the boys
how, back from the narrow valley and
the swift, winding stream, the country
was all wilderness, hillsides clad
with birchss, naples and evergreens,
and resting at their feet little lakes, so
numerous that no man knew how many
there were. Often, where these lakes
were shallow, the yellow pond lily
with its oval leaves crowded the sur
face. At other seasons the tender bark Of
mountain ashes and moosewoods are the
favorite food OF the moose, but now
there is nothing he likes so we'll as the
long tubular roots Of the lily. In the very
early mornings, and in the evenings,
about the time of the harvest moon
the full moon nearest Sept 21-a hol-
low sound, not unlike the sound of dis
tant chopping, may be heard. 1t is the
sound Of moose calling to their mates
or the angry challenge Of fierce rivals.
1t is this sound which the hunter imi-
tates to attract the moose. But there
are only few places where the moose
will answer, shallow spots in certain
we'll known lakes, and it is said to be
nearly useless to call anywhere else

There is poem beginning

abandoned the attempt, but Lucy pro-

BODlCES AND TRIMMINGS.

Cream Lace Applique ON Black Ground.
In spite OF the great vogue of the Louis
Quinze coat bodice, with it's full basques,
round bodioes are much worn and will

The sleeves are decidedly more moderate,
the fullness being confined to the upper
quarter of the arm and the amount of ma
terial contained in the balloon being much
diminished as a consequence.
The bodice differing from the skirt in
color and material seems to have come to
stay in spite of the efforts of manufacture

from the general affections. 1t is no longer

Only to keep them So
Soft, warm and young
The wee. feeble fingers y
The babbling tongue.
Tears that we kiss away,
Smiles that we win.
Careless of knowledge.
AS guiltless of sin.
Only to keep them so,
Frank, true and pure.
OF our full wisdom
So lovingly sure.
Our frown all they shrink from.
Our fiat their law,
Our store whence all gladness
They fearlessly draw.
Only to keep them So
Sweet hands that cling,
Sweet lips that laugh for US,
Sweet tones that ring:
Curls that we train to wave,
Feet that we guide,
Each fresh step a wonder,
Each new word pride.
Only to keep them SO.

why. She told most blood curdling

I've found that out since. She was only

found that a particular fame of hers

General Alexander r. Lawton was
born in Beaufort District, S. c., in 1889
He entered West Point in 1885, having
for classmates Generals Halleck, Stew
ems, Candy and Gilmer. After gradual
ton he served on frontier duty In the
First Artillery for eighteen months,
when he resigned from the army and
studied law, beginning practice at Sa-
vannah. In 1850 he became president
Of the Augusta and Savannah railroad
In 1855 he was elected to the Georgia
assembly, and in 1859 was returned to
the state senate.
He was colonel of the First regiment
of Georgia Volunteers, when in Janu-
airy. 1861, he took possession of the Fort
Pulaski under state authority. At the
commencement Of fostilities in the fol-
lowing April, he received a commission
as brigadier general in the Confederate
army, and he was from that time up
to the close of the rebellion in constant
military service. At the battle of
Chantilly, General Lawton was the
ranking officer, and the Federal divi-
sion opposed to him was commanded by
his old classmate at West Point, Cen
eral Stevens, who was killed.
After the fall of Richmond, General
Lawton returned to Savannah and re-
engaged in the practice of law. In
1875 he was again elected to the state
assembly, and in 1877 he was a member
and vice president of the constitutional
convention which framed the present
constitution of Georgia. In 1880 he I'M
successfully contested with Joseph E.
Brown the succession to the United
States senate for the unexpired term
of General Gordon, resigned-receiving
GA votes to Browns 146. Soon after
President Cleveland's Inauguration, he
was rendered the appointment of min
lister to Russia, but finally requested
the president to withdraw his name,
in consequence of his eligibility to civil
office under the federal government be-
ing called in question. This objection
having been overruled by the attorney
general he was appointed minister to
Austria in 1885 in the place of Mr..
Kelley, to whom Austria had objected
on the score Of religious difficulties.
