THE FASHION PLATE.

Gray dresses With black lace are much
liked; also gray with bright yellow.
Tan color and black, tan and pale
blue and tan and heliotrope are among
the popular combinations of color.
The hustle is again in evidence, and
some of the new dresses are quite heav-
lily padded at the sides and back of the
skirt.
Skirt and blazer suits of denim are
much liked, They have facings of white
duck and are trimmed with white braids
and galloons of various sorts. With a
washable garniture they are among the
most comfortable and durable of dresses.
A trimming every way desirable fer
thin dresses is made from ribbon from
l inch to IE inches wide. This is
trimmed on either 6Gge with lace and
is put in rows around the skirt. 1t is
also used as waist trimming from tho
collar to the belt,
Bathing suits have departed entirely
from their old fashioned simplicity, and
novelties are prepared that are not only
impractical in appearance and effect.
but positively ridiculous. It is not at
all unusual to see them trimmed with
ribbons, laces, embroideries and frills.
The Elton jacket and skirt are a desir-
able model for wool dresses OF medium
weight. Linen duck, denim and various
cotton fabrics may be made up in the
same way. Great care is necessary in
fashioning these jackets if they are to
be washed otherwise they will get bad
ly out OF shape. and nothing will restore
them,

Perhaps some one can now inform us
how the word Jenny came to be

the language and is no longer a thieves

use with which 1 am acquainted occurs
in "Neil Cook" in 1.-THE Ingoldsby

FIREMEN'S MEETING.

At last nights meeting Of the
fire department to elect the next
chief, the vote was 2I for Car
michael and 22 for Carlisle. The
other officers elected were:
First Assistant Chief-R. T..
Yonge, ST.
Second Assistant Chief-Joh
DeVane.
Secretary and Treasurer Carl
DieffenbaCh.
Of course, the final appointment
of the fire chief rests with the
council. but it is hardly likely that
they will appoint against the vote
of the department. Outside of
the department itself the town is
very much in favor of Carlisle, and
his appointment will meet the ap-
prova. of the majority of the prop
erty owners. The meeting went
off very pleasantly.
