FASHION NOTES.
Sleeves That Suggest slenderness.

Sleeves That Suggest Slenderness.
The stoutsst advocates Of tight dress
sleeves leave bit of looseness at the
shoulders, and many of the current
sleeves patterns resemble the lately de-
parted big sleeves very closely, the diff
ference being that the proportions have
been reduced But now and then one
sees a sleeve that is so radical a de-
parture as to make its wearer seem
awkward. 1t is one of this sort that is
shown here, and it gave to the wearer
an unpleasantly slim and thin chested
appearance Yet the dress was new
one. and the sleeve one that will have
many duplicates before long, the un-
pleasant impression the latter at first
created being due to the fact that it
was well in advance of existing styles.
This dress was intended as a travelling
gown, and was made of gray mohair.

A new invention which may In time
become great aid to the modern
housekeeper, is the pneumatic sweeper.
All that Is necessary to fit it to hotel
or private house is a pipe connection
for compressed air, such as is now car
ried into every house for gas and water.
1t consists simply of a long nozzle,
the size of a broom handle, attached to
the end Of a rubber hose. The outer
extremity of the nozzle carries brass
arrangement about a foot in width
across the face, with a narrow slit, not
more than 1872 OF an inch in width,
running from side to side. Through
this narrow aperture the compressed
air is forced at the rate of rs cubic feet
a minute. The house maid using the
pneumatic sweeper passes 1t back and
forth over the surface of the carpet.
1T can also be applied to busting fur
niture.

There are said to be many persons
even yet, in Talbot county, Maryland,
who believe that Bryan has been elect
ed to the Presidency, because a woman
fortune-teller says so. About two
months ago she planted two beans. She
went through the necessary incanta
tons in such performances. One of
the beans was named Mckinley and the
other Bryan. They were tended care
fully, and the fortune-teller declared
that whichever came up first represent
ed the successful presidential candi-
date. A day or two before election both
beans came to the surface, the Bryan
bean outstripping the other three
hours and twenty-six minutes. There
fore she declared Bryan would be elect
ed by a small majority. But even
beans and rabbits feet couldn't elect
him.

The notion that France, because of
the free use of light wines, Is land of
exceptional sobriety, is rudely disturb
ed by some figures put forward by Pro-
lessor Jules Denis, of Geneva. Assun-
ing that beer contains, on the average,
per cent, cider 9 per cent, and wine 10
per cent of alcohol, and reckoning suit
able percentages of alcohol in brandy,
rum, whiskey and other spirits, he finds
that France consumes each year the
appalling total of thirteen quarts of
pure alcohol for each individual of the
popuia ton. Switzerland comes next
with ten quarts, Belgium, Italy and
Germany following in order, down to
England, with nine quarts. Sweden.
where the Gothenburg system has
greatly modified the liquor trade, con-
sumes only four quarts, and Norway
three. Moreover, drinking is on the in
crease in France and Belgium, station
airy in Switzerland and Italy, and de-
creasing in Scandinavia, Germany and
England.

Yesterday morning Joseph S. Kicker,
Symonds, Snow & Cook, filed in the clerk
of courts office, an appeal to the Supreme
court from the decision of the county
commissioners in awarding damage on
his land in connection with the widening
OF Forest avenue. The damages were
$214O.
This appeal is returnable at the October
term. Since the widening cannot take
place until a year after all proceeding
are closed, therefore because of the filing
of this appeal, the widening cannot, I'm
der any circumstances, take place until a
year from next October.
If at that time the Supreme court sus-
tains the award Of the commiss toner's,
Mr.. Rioker can take exceptions and carry
the matter up to the Law court. This
will delay any consideration until July.
1897. II then the Law court decides in
favor of the award Of damages by the
commissioners, the widening cannot be-
gin till u year from that time. OF course
there is no telling when that decision
would be made. At the least. Mr.. Rockers
appeal will delay the widening Of the
avenue till year from July. '97, or two
years from next July.
But this is not oil. Suppose next
October that the Supreme court decides
in favor of Mr.. Kicker and awards him
greater damages Then the commission
ers have the right to stop all proceedings
entirely, and therefore the entire matter
would have to be begun all over again.
But suppose, next October that the Su-
preme court decides in favor or the
present damages and Mr.. Kicker does no,
take exceptions. Then the matter goes to
the commissioners. They can settle it
then or delay action till the end of the
year

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. Jan. IL
a case OF peculiar interest was decided
IN the supreme court yesterday. Philip
sherman, ciothier. has pretty young
daughter, Lena, whose plump, rosy
face and curly hair attracted the atten-
ton of photographer. He offered to
photograph the girl free of charge. and
made very handsome cabinet for his
showcase as an advertisement for his
work. The picture attracted consider
able attention, and when removed from
the window the Grand Rapids Engrav-
ing company asked for and received it
from the artist. A half tone cut was
made from it and the, cut used in the
ccmpany's advertising circular. A
short time ago the girl, returning from
Sabbath school, saw her picture upon
tobacco pail in a downtown win
dow. Her enraged father at once
brought suit for damages and before
trial yesterday the parties agreed that
If the court decided for the plaintiff the
damages were to be fixed at $50. After
hearing the proofs. Judge Burlingame
promptly gave judgment to the girl and
took occasion to define, in very strong
language,the rights of people as against
photographers He declared that pho
toSraphers have no right whatever to
give or sell to any person a copy Of any
photograph taken for customer, and
their use by any other party is cause
for prosecution. The picture upon the
tobacco pail in this case was attached
to calendar issued by the engraving
company. and the court denounced the
action as an outrage. The attorneys
in the case could find no precedent in the
legal records of any state
