FRILLS OF FASHION.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
1t is the proper thing this season
to have your hat match your gown,
or the coat you wear with it.
White cloth skirts are considered
very chic TO wear with the fancy
blouse waist for semi evening dress.
Narrow ruches of lace are super
seding the black chiffon frills used to
edge collars, epaulets and revers.
Two new fashionable dress mater
ials are called peau de gazelle and
pluie de sole. One is a fine cloth,
very light in weight and almost az
glossy as silk, and the other is a
plain wool fabric with tiny silk loops
all over it.
Aluminium gray, red plum and alb
hess violet, which is mixture OF
blue and violet, are the fashionable
cOlOrs.
Fancy belts are all the rage, and
| ali kinds of metal, real and imitation
Jewels, make up the glittering array
displayed in the shops. There art
belts of gold canvas which resembles
leather, combinations of jet, silver
and steel, and suede leather and vel

uncertain elements. No track, no course,
no rudder, no certainty that any breeze may
not bring destruction.
SO with the sick man His disordeTed
constitution renders every natural operation
uncertain. No organ can be depended on
to do its normal work. The stomach will
not digest food; the liver will not filter bill
ous poisons from the blood; the kidneys
and skin will not excrete the waste. No
regular nourishing or purifying process IS
going on. There is no certainty except the
certainty of suffering.
In all dyspeptic, bilious, debilitated con-
ditons, what is needed is to change the alb
normal, erratic operations of the system
into a natural, regular, straightforward pro
gress in the right direction. Nothing III the
world will do this 50 rapidly and certainly
as DR. Perce's Golden Medical Discovery.

Hints and Helps In Music.

The following hints from the German
are commended in The Etude:
An excellent practice for musical in
telligence and memory is to learn a
composition or part of it, even if only a
few measures, by heart from the notes
only, without the use of any instrument
whatever. This is on the principle of
intuitive instruction = first fastening
the lesson in the minds eye and then
passing it on to memory.
It is desirable that the pupil learn to
play as soon as possible without con-
stantly keeping the eyes upon the key
board, not only because the continued
nodding of the head is a rather ludi-
crous movement, which reminds one of
the Chinese automatons displayed in
teashops, but also because it is him
drance to rapid sight reading.
Play new piece slowly at first. 1t is
impossible to play anything rapidly and
correctly that one cannot play slowly
with ease. Children learn to walk first
step by step. Only after they have Stun
bled thousand times do they learn to

SMALL SPROCkET WHEELS.
There Is More Pressure Upon Their Teeth
Than Upon Larger Sprockets.

There Is More Pressure Upon Their Teeth
Than Upon Larger Sprockets.
There is strong tendency among BIZ
cycle makers in pandering to the public
taste for lightness of parts to reduce the
size of the sprocket wheel on the rear
axle. That this is a mistake is proved
by an experiment recently made to de-
termine the comparative efficiency of
sprockets of different sizes To carry
out the experiment the bicycle was in
verified and the frame securely attached
to the floor. A thin steel band had one
end attached to the tire and the other
end carrying weight, which was raised
by the band being wound upon the tire
second weight being hung from a
scale pan attached to the pedal, whence
the efficiency of the portion of the mech
anism transmitting the power could be
calculated.
long series of readings was taken
with the same large sprocket and with
seven, eight and nine toothed sprockets
on the rear and with pedal weights va
rying from pounds to so pounds. The
average efficiencies in each case were as
follows: Seven tooth, SO. 8; eight tooth,
91.5; nine tooth, 90. 4 This shows the
eight tooth to have 90.9 per cent of the
efficiency of the nine tooth, and the seven
tooth to have SO per cent of the efficien-
| cy of the nine tooth sproclzet, other COLI
ditions being equal. The result proves
| that there is less chain pressure upor
| the teeth of the larger wheels, and
! hence less wear.-Engineer.

AN ENGAGEM

How 1t Should Be Announced-WhAt IL
Expected of Both Families.
The first duty of the groom elect is to
obtain the consent of his future brides
parents.
1t is correct to see the parents, not to
write to them, unless the latter course
is the only one possible to take. When
consent is given, the engagement Is
looked upon as a settled thing, and the
next thing is to make it known.
This should be done in the very first
instance by the bridegroom expectant,
who announces it to his family. They
should, without delay, call upon his
iancee and her people, or, if the dis
lance prohibits this. they should at once
write to the fiancee, expressing their
pleasure at the news and assuring her
of a welcome among them.
These calls should be returned or the
letters answered with promptitude, and
now the general public is informed OF
the event.
The bridegroom elects first care
should be to provide the engagement
ring. 1t is usual to let the BRIDES taste
select it, and he may either ascertain
her preferences before buying it or send
tray from the jewelers. for her to Sc
lect from.
Friends and acquaintance on hear
ing of the engagement should at once
send their congratulations and good
wishes. This may either be done by
calling in person to deliver them or by
writing. Calls of congratulation should
be returned and letters answered. A
few words of cordial thanks are all that
are required.
During an engagement some OF the
stricter rules of chaperonage are re-
Taxed. Considerate people, where they
dine ont, will often try to send them in
to dinner together, but this is point
which can never be looked upon as a
right, since precedence and convenience
have to be considered.
When an engagement is broken off,
the outside public should at once be in
formed of the fact If there has been 8
a newspaper announcement, another
should now intimate that the marriage
previously arranged will not take place
ALI wedding presents which may have
been received must be sent back. Any
presents or letters received by one of thu
fiances from the other must be returned
and the engagement ring should Away
be returned without delay.
ANY hesitation about these matter
would be in the worst possible taste.

In small drawing rooms where space

accommodation for music in the large
cabinet. This can generally be done
without in any way detracting from
either the dignity or the usefulness of
the cabinet. In fact, in a great many
instances the substitution of printed
music for commonplace bric-a- brac
would be distinct advantage. Thus it
occurs to us that it would enhance the
salableness of many china cabinets if,
say, their center part were made to do
duty as a music cabinet. OF course in
larger rooms an additional piece of fur
niture is necessary.
Happily, in these matters exact con-
formity in design with the larger pieces

Upon Society.
You can tell bicycle riders by their
walk, according to a metropolitan pa
per. Not because of a popularity of
gait, but for the reason that they un
consciously follow the rules of the road
they have learned while riding a bicy
Gle Almost without exception they
pass to the right when meeting other
pedestrians and to the left when pass
ing them from behind When turning
a corner, the pedestrian who has learned
to cycle hugs the wall closely if going
to the right and is almost sure to make
a long turn if bound to the left
If all pedestrians would observe the
rules of the road on the sidewalks as
well as the experienced cyclists observe
them on the highways, there would be
fewer toes trampled upon and fewer
persons nudged in the ribs by protrud-
ing and sharp elbows.
There is nothing more annoying to
the participants and nothing more
laughable to the spectator than to see
two persons dancing up and down and
taking a series of side steps because both
started to pass each other in the wrong
direction.
The bicycle is unconsciously teaching
people how best to keep out of each
others way. Any one who does not
think the result is sure to be beneficial
