After supper music and conversation were indulged in till II o'clock, when the gay party broke up, all voting the evening to be most enjoyable one indeed.

COLD STANDARD

GOLD STANDARD
 FACTS.
 The production of gold, both in the Unit ed States and the world at large, is steadily increasing. The total value of the worlds yield of gold last year was over s200, GOO, 600. a far greater amount than ever before in history.
 Our present money system Is that of all the great commercial nations and gives no fayors to lenders aa against borrowers. The money gatherers of the old world can only get our money by giving us goods in ex- change. If we use the goods, we have no cause for complaint because we part with our money.
 Lower prices mean cheapened production that is. goods pro duced by less toil ot the workers. Instead of being 0 national curse this is a bless Ing. for it enables the masses to get the nee essaries of life easier than if prices wers high.
 The price of cotton. one of our great sta. ples, advanced last year over 50 per cent under the gold stand ard. This proves that 1t is not the measure of3yalues which fixes prices.
 The adoption of free coinage at l6 to 1, which is what the Tellerites declare to be =sab i'm 6 t ia l lism, would put this coun- try at once on the sil- yer standard and cut down the basis of our money one-half by driving out of circula- tion s625, 900, 600 in gold.
 The United States ia the greatest consum- ing tion in the world in proportion to it's population. We inn port every year con sumable merchandise of the average value of $500, OO0. 0o0, all of which is used by the people of this country. The talk of one set of people as consumers only and another set as merely producers l. nonsense. All men and all nations both produce and consume goods.
 The price of human production means the wages of labor whether the Iaborer works for himself as s farmer or for an employer as 8 work man It is not true that the returns to la bor have "deereased with appalling rapid ity," for every official investigation of the subject shows that while the price of farm products has fallen the price of goods the farmer buys has fallen in still grea ter propor- tion. Labor gets high CT wages now than z years ago, and these wages buy far more manufactured goods. Not more toll. but less, Is now required to meet a given demand.
 The eyes Of the American people are not so blind that they cannot see through tine sophistries and misrepresentations oi the silver mining camps. The men who believe in justice are not likely to unite with agitators who are striving for the unjust robbery of creditors of one-half of their property. Pretenses of fairness come with

black hats are in great demand, and the
newest have transparent net or sequin
crowns, and frequently a ruche of chiffon
is placed round the brim.
A bright girl here he's truly dis
tractingly lovely collection of chapeaux,
al trimmed by her own deft fingers,
among which l admired large brown one
adorned with another and darker shade
OF tulle. Violets appeared here and there,
and bunch rested on her hair. An
aigrette of wild oats completed 1t. One OF
her black hats has net crown and great
bow OF pom padour ribbon in front, which
is black, with most unusual figures in
green. A cachepeigne of pink roses
gives the finishing touch. One reason this
youthful maiden makes such success of
her headgear is because she thoroughly
understands her own style, and compare
lively few women seem to comprehend
what is and what is not suitable to their
style. | have in my minds eye at present
sweet, meek-looking little woman, q
Quakerish bit of mother, who seems to
fairly delight in the most aggressive and
pronounced hats, which never look as
though they could by any possibility be-
long to her. Poor little thing, believe
purchase their most hideous and unsal-
able monstrosities. 1t is well to note that
all extravaganza and overloaded hats are
entirely out of style, the most SIMPLE If
in perfect taste. being greatly in vogue.
Not long ago l saw young woman in
most satisfactory tailor dress, with which
she wore really absurd bonnet, one only
suitable for the theater, being combina-
ton of tulle lace and seouins with flower
aigrette. Besides, fancy bonnet with
tailor dress! Why, it is just as
ridiculous almost as it would be to wear q
sailor hat when in full evening dress at
the opera. There are hats to be had for
all ages, excepting for our grandmothers,
so bonnets are less worn than ever before.
Panama or one of the new sailors, with
bow at one side. and some quilts, are
good hats for morning wear as well as for
travelling. Little girls are fetching NOR
tails in chapeaux merely adorned with
ribbon and roses, as tulle is too perishable
for such purposes.
The Vienna style of having a snow-white

back. where there is often battlemented
basque" Even our favorite full bodices
are pointed and for about two inches
above the waist line the center seam opens
and the material is let in to form sost
folds. which extend to the throat. For
evening bodices the tulle or mousseline de
sole sleeve is generally used. They are
usually formed of number of ruff1es or
fiounces and these give a delightful effect.
Sometimes, however, foundation of silk
or satin is used for the ethereal fabrics.
Louis XIV bodices are beginning to come
into favor and some have and some have
not the familiar basque back, which is
narrow and slightly pointed in front,
having a distinct embroidered stomacher,
always of a different color and generally
of a different material" This style de-
mands longer sleeves, so not infrequently
they extend TO the elbow in tiny puffs.
Nothing is quite so charming for the short
sleeves as real old cobwebby lace.
How frequently do we miss the graceful
movement which is one of the results pro-
duced by true artist and gives distinc-
tive air to the sim plest garment.
The very stylish gown which is given
this week, of light fawn colored alpaca,
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-05-17

has pipings of green gIace silk. The un-
der sleeves are tight fitting and terminate
in Venetian cuffs. The over sleeves are of
pale green glace silk, finished with a
ruche of chiffon, edged with silk. These
sleeves are very peculiar, and start from
the armhole seam and not from the collar,
thus leaving the pretty outline from neck
to shoulder, and are carried round the
back un der strap. The vest is of the
chiffon, further ornamented with an ap-
plique of lace. The bodice is com rleted
with ornaments of buttons and Jet passe-
menrerie, which trimming occurs again in
each of the front seams of the skirt.
The cape illustrated is of a gray glace
silk shot with pink. 1t has q border of ex-
quisItely embroidered mousseline de sole.
The EN- broidery is one of the latest novel
ties-silver and gold, pink and gray silken
threads being used to produce the truly
lovely result which appears again on the
cape in points. The ruche and scarf are
edged with embroidery. The lining is of
black lace, with ruche of the same. The
butterflies are of sequins, beautifully
shaded. Roses peep from under the brim,
and black ostrich tips complete it.
The wedding gown of the Princess Alex
andra is given, for its perfect and elegant
simplicity makes it of special interest. 1t
is of a white moire W hich has a silyery
sheen, and falls like the richest velvet, so
its name of MORE velours is most appro-
pirate. The skirt has a long rounded train,
and is embroidered all round in silk and
silver with conventional myrtle and orange
blossoms in little clusters, and the eye is
carried from one to the other by sweeping
chains and pearls set on long disks of
frosted silver, which gives a sparkling
effect. The bodice is pointed and edged
with two rows of silver-sewn pearls. The
berthe is most effective, being of white
silk muslin embroidered with orange bios
SONS, and has dainty little sprays and
clusters of the typical flowers laid in and
falling below it so that the result is
uniquely beautiful and natural. The
small puff sleeves ere of the same fabric
as the ruche and some sprays of the
natural flowers fell over them. At the
left side the bride wore at the waist a
cluster of blossoms and from it fell three
trails Of flowers of different lengths and
they extended halfway down the skirt.
In concluding the d scription, l quote
the remarks of a correspondent who was
present at the wedding: From small
wreath of orange blossoms and myrtle on
the Princess shapely head fell long
transparent tulle veil in graceful folds.
The shoes were white satin, embroidered

with real pearls in thistle design, and
the pettlcoat worn under the Gress was Of
gleamlng white satin, with two deep lace
nounces set on with satin bows. An ex-
qulslte little mantle made for the bride to
wear as she walked through the great
rooms and corridors on her way to and
from the chapel was made of the same
white MORE velours as the gown, and
treated with pearls and silver in similar
fashion. AT the back there was Vatican
pleat and on either side of it pointed bands,
enriched with pearls and frosted silver,
while the full wings that protected and
covered the arms had several waYy rows

tiny parallel lines run. The lines are of an
