FASHION u1nERAb As TO WRAPS.
A Variety That Will Permit Every woman t.
Re Ruitod This season.

Fashion is moro liberal this season than ever
before in tho variety of wraps which she offers
for our approval. Apparently there Is some.
thing to suit every style Of figure, every fancy;
and certainly the problem Of selecting a becom'
ing wrap ought to be q simple one with such a
from which to choose. There are long
and short coats. dolmans, pclerines, Russian
blouse Jackets without end, and all sorts and
conditions of capos of any lenEth between a
shoulder cape and the one which reaches to the
finger tips as the arm rests at the side.
Any statements to the effect that capes werc
not to be worn seem to be conclusively refuted
by the multitude of these garments shown In
the shops. They are made Of cloth, silk, mate
lasse, velvet. and fur, and are trimmed elabo-
rately with applique and jet, fur. chiffon, and
lace, much rs they were last season. some Of
the combinations afford q nice opportunity for
using odds and ends OF fur and materials. For
example, one little cape reaching to the bottom
of tho waist is made Of sealskin from the point
of the shoulders down, and above this 10 a
yoke and collar Of Persian lamb. Where tho

HEEs, RUNAWAY, RECONCILIATION.
An Uuusaal Train OF Events at . Country
Funeral In Maine.

MAcnIAs, Me-, oct. l5.-During a funeral in
the town of Cutler n few days ago two lovers
who had been a~lienated from each other for a
month were brought together under peculiar
and painful circumstances, and before the SER
vices were ended n complete reconciliation was
effected. The chief mcdiators in the affair were
honey bees-a whole swarm of them.
After short services at the house the body was
taken to the family tomb in another part of the
town. Willis Smith, the rejected sutton. one of
the pallbearers. rode In a carriage ahead of the
hearse. and Miss Milly Lorlng. the woman in the
case. occupied a top buggy driven by Mr.. Clark.
and brought up the rear OF the procession
among the ~neighbors and friends. As soon as
the tomb was unlocked and the coffin was taken
to it's resting place great crowds of angry bees
swarinod out, singing kindred, friends. and
bearers. until everybody howled with pain.
Mr.. Clark, the man who was escorting
and fed for a stream OF water twenty
rode away, whereupon his horse got up q brisk
runaway right among mo InourneTs. The ami
mai had made one circuit about the cemetery
and was boiling through the gate for q two
mile home run, when IL was caught by, MT;
what he could TO alleviate the distress of Miss
Loring. Meantime the men OF the party, had
built II hre, which scorchcd the wings OF the
bees and caused them TO fall TO the ground.
When Mr.. Clark returned from the stream
he found Mr.. Smith and Miss Loring sitting
stings. Both were eating honey and talking as
II they had always been friends. MIR. Clark
took his hor0e and drove away home without
21klnE any questions.

Tables in which There Is No Percentage for
Sentiment.

Sentiment.
There are few sentimental illusions In any Of
the reports which emanate from the Govern
mont printing Office In Washington under
authority OF tho Commissioner of Labor. 1t
may be no surprise. therefore. to many to know
that the eleventh annual report OF the Commits
sioner of Labor contains in tabulated form. re-
duced to exact percentages. a statement show
ing the occupations OF divorced women.
The bureau of the statistical expert in charge
of tabulation divides tho female population of
the United States of ten years or upward into
four general classes. First there are the mar
ried. who number 1915 per cent. Then there
are the widows, who number 1910 per cent.
Third is the class of tho "single and unknown
these number 1884 per cent. Finally there are
the divorced. who constitute nine-tenths of i per
cent. Of the female population of 10 years Of age
or over in the United States. and they arc dis
tributed throughout various occupations, which
the statistical experts have endeavored to state
with undertaking eXactness. or the total num-
Der OF divorced women employed. 1t seems that
81 per cent. are bookbinders, .9S are shOemakers
and go are A much smaller pro
portion, 40, arc, saleswomen. while 80 are tele-
graph and telephone operators. Stenographers
and tyLo,writers mako up .67 per cont, and .b6
The official statisticians at Washington look
neither to the right nor to the left in their tabu.
lation and II need be no surprise, therefore, to
United states who have any business occupa-
ton are merchants, 1.O4 are carpetmakers. and
40 are hat and cap makers. Milliners come
under a separate division, their percentage of
there are l.35, and OF clerks and copyists 81.
Moreover, 20 are boXmakers. .6S printers, 81
cigarette and tobacco makers, "a in the con
fectionery business, LAB dressmakers. .46 paper
mill operators, and rs in silk mills.
The professions have q considerable number
OF divorced women, LA being music teachers
and lis teachers OF art. There are 3.83 per
cent. described as hotel, restaurant and saloon
keepers and barkeepers and a somewhat larger
proportion as boarding or lodging house keep
ers; / 80 as laundresses: 80 as nurses; and 81
as agricultural laborers.
In one particular, however, the report of the
Commissioner OF Labor seems to BIO pretty
nearly exact, for 3.26 of tho total number of
divorced women are put down as agents and IL
Is n matter OF very general observation that d.
yorced women make excellent agents where
persistence and volubility are required.

Both wide and narrow yokes Of lace, EN-.
broidery. tucked and shirred silk are displayed
among the new gowns, and the bodice which
opens on tho side-so much worn in the sum-
mer-stil has a place among the French models,
the only difference being in the blouse effect in
front. The side is cut out in squares, s~callops,
or points finished with satin bands, braiding. or
embroidery, and q little jabot Of lace finishes
the top where the yoke begins. Some Of the
now Partisan gowns are made with folds
draped across below the yoke in surplice fash

side of the front, or is worn with o fancy Jew

heliotrope cloth has a Russian blouse accordion

frilled vest of cream lace. 1t has n tabled basque
and epaulettes which, like the revers, are edged

black satin fastens with a fancy buckle and the

not much heavier than cashmere.
