Mrs. Catherine Christine Mcdonald of

who owns and personally manages a large
mercantile business. She is dealer in
pianos, organs and other musical instru-
ments, owns her stock, and is her own
business manager.
In appearance Mrs. Mcdonald Is a we'll
preserved woman of about so. Her hair
Is iron gray and she wears smoked spec.
taclos. One meeting her on the street
would never think her blind. For, though
she carries a slender walking cane, she has
not the appearance OF feeling her way. but

It seems strange for a woman to invade
the dissecting room, and through art to lend
a helping hand to science, yet this is the call

followed successfully. The work is in charts,
color plates process and half-toned drawings
which she makes from objections photo
graphs, and from sketches or books. She is
familiar with the use of the opthalmoecope,
larnygoscope, otoscope, microscope, and
camera-lucda, and has frequent use for all
of them. She also models and colors patho-
logical specimens, in hard plaster or papier
macha with equal facility. In her studio
she has a long table, on which she makes
casts of any part of the human anatomy de-

Yellow in all its glory. in ito varied tones

Tie fashionable woman wears iewele gallo e
this season, not alone with evening dress
but with day gowns as well,
Lace applique Is one of the popular and
rather expensive dress decorations since il
must be arranged to sIit each gown.
Short fur jackets in mink, chinchilla as
trakhan, seal, etc, are very fashionable in
bolero, Eton, Russian, and similar styles
Suits in silver-blue cloth have bolero
jackets of mink fur with centuries of
Persian satin that show color mixtures of
blue, red, fawn, brown and gold.
One of Worth's latest gems in cloth Is
trimmed round the skirt to the knee with
two-inch bias bands of velvet in q contrast
ing color, and an inch and half space be-
tween each one.
Satin, serge and tweed knickerbockers
made with a removable flannel lining, are a
good substitute for the short flannel skirt,
and are worn with street costumes in cold
weather.
Tucks are still used on skirts, bodices and
sleeves in many ways, and these can be made
with far more effect than the simple style of
decoration might be deemed capable of.
Not a few of the gray wool astrakhan,

is also fashionable for the same purpose, and
both white and black fox are very much
worn.
Standard and fancy materials in black are
in high vogue this season, and Will continue
In favor all winter. They are brought out in
silk, satin, wool and silk and wool mixtures
in designs most novel and attractive
Chinchllla tcques are worn with gowns and
coats oTnamented with the same fur, and
they are trimmed with rOsettes of bright
ribbon, cream lace and gray or black ostrich
feathers. Sable toques with yiolets are
another fancy,
Shirt waists OF French flannel in plain
