Fancy dress goods are losing caats So
quickly that those who bought them
carly IA the season stand aghast. Yet
very pleasant II IS to welcome once.

vorites, and are exactly suited "a q per-
SON who can AFFORD but b Cows asea-
son.
At present ladyR cloth IS the material
which is in greatest favor. It is used
most effectively in a charming gown.
that is purple in color. Four and a half
yards Of the cloth were bought to make
a skirt and bolero. The side seams 81
the skirt and the Jacket were trimmed
with gold embroidery while the loose
bodice was Of pale yellow silk.
The design is exceedingly pretty, and
may easily be carried out in other ma
terials.
The purple cloth costs one dollar a
yard, and is both too costly and too
striking in color to be suitable ordi-
narily. The color, however, may be
changed to dark blue or green. BY
treating the cloth carefully after it is
bought, q 50-cent material mai easily
be made to look as well as one twice that
price.
The cloth should be rolled between
wet sheets and laid away to dry. When
it is nearly dry it should be pressed on
the wrong side, and lined with a thin
canton flannel, which gives il q more
elegant appearance.
To replace the silk waist what could
be prettier than asbodice of Shaker
flannel. say IN one Of those fine checks
that come in such dainty colors? Some
that I saw to-day, in a soft fawn and
white, would be simply Irresistible with
a green skirt.
Over it should be worn the jacket of
green. That and the skirt might be
braided with a fine white cord, and as
pretty a costume as possible would be
the result. And, if made at home, its
cost would not rise above six dollars, in
Guiding a margin for those innumerable
nothings that do make a gown cost so
much.
The collars Of this years coat are
novel and exceedingly chic. They stand
high upon the back, then flare outward.

nc T-umbleweed.

Tumbleweeds spread themselves in a
wholesale fashion. Instead OF sending
the separate seeds out into the world
with the wings or hairs to carry them,
the whole plant breaks off near the
root, when these are ripe, and goes roll
ing along the grouhd before the wind.
The bare s~un-scorched deserts of the
great west produce tt1mbleweeds, and
there are some in the prairie region.
It is natural that they should be most
abundant where there are no hills nor
trees to stop them in their course. Tut
we have one tumbleweed in the east
the old witch grass, so-called, maybe,
because it rides the wind like an old
beldame. In September this grass
spreads its head, or p~anicle, with hair
like, purple branches, in every sandy
field. When the seeds are ripe the
plants are blown across the field, often
piling up in masses along the fences
and h~edgerows. AS might be expected,
the hair grass, which has. so effective
a way Of spreading itself, is found
throughout the United States, from
ocean to ocean.-Thomas III. Kearney,
Jr., in st. Nicholas.

similar effect, in cheaper materials, is
aimed at.
This is secured by the use Of heavy
boucle, or astrakhan. Gray astrakhan
makes a pretty, Inexpensive coat, but
n would soon tire of it If it had to be
worn continually, For the vest OF q
coat designed in this way, velvet, prefer
ably gray. or green, should be used.
Or, if that is too expensive, veiveteen
Tuay easily be substituted by who
understands the proper use Of that ma
terial-which is to have The nap run the
wrong way. Try it, and see what a
beautiful luster IS acquiredRnd how ex.
actly like al velvet itlooks.
Aba6d Of ribbon crossing the belt and
tying at the side adds a pretty finish.
In this, however. it is essential that
quality be considered. The great lesson
to be learned about gowning is, that
while very cheap materials can be made
TO look well. it is absolutely necessary
that ribbons or laces be of good quality.
Little tots are particularly bewitch-
ing Just now. They toddle about in
fairy clothes-like tiny travellers from
another land.
Poke bonnets, with wide brims tied
under the chin, will be worn. They are
of the. heavier materials, velvet, benz
galine, felt, or the material used in the
cloak, and are trimmed with feathers.
lace, ribbon D fur.
Although one would suppose thecon-
trary, children's cloaks should be care
fully fitted, especially over the Shout
ders and back. The eloaks are all cut
alike-tight-ftting in the back, with
loose fronts.
Small bishop sleeves are required, and
the collar may be either round OF
pointed. If pointed, it may be edged
with a ruche of the material, or fur; II
round, a founce sof lace, or null edgec
with lace, should cover it.
Bengaline, smooth-fnished cloths
and velvets, are the best materials
More s~erviceable cloaks, not quite Sc
dainty. may be made of rough-haired
materials. The lighter colors should
be chosen. such a. soft pink, gray blue
or a light brown. When a darker colol
is used, it is well to introduce pink il
the bonnet strings, and also ION tbs
collar.
L~ight-colored cashmeres make in
expensive cloaks that are exceedingly
pretty. This material may now b,
bought for about 25 cents q yard. I
has not any great degree Of warmth
but by lining it With fiber chamois i
can be made as snug as a fur cloak.
Cloaks are ankle length, and ft clos
around the neck. To make the necl
still warmer, many bonGets tie with
great bow of ribbons under the chin
and have a small cape around tbs back

their construction. For jacketed gowns,
a small leg-o-mutton puff is worn, but
it must not be stiffened at all. To Sc
cure the proper droop it is allowable to
lay the puff in plaits around the arm
hole. They should be laid and fastened
properly on the tight lining before the
sleeve is sewed in the bodice.
All sleeves + made with tight lin

fitted on the arm and made as tight as
consistent with its use. Then. after all
unnecessary material is trimmed away,
it should be ripped apart and covered

For wrist adornment. lace,i is largely

lined with some bright bit of ribbon

Much more s~erviceable. however. is a

three inches long. They should be
lined, and are pretty if of velvet or

should be slip-stitched to the edge Of the

Cuffs Of this style are the very newest
