THE CRAZE FOR OF FICE.
what the OTcial Reoor at the Executive
Mansion shows.

MANSON SHOWS.
A Washington correspondent gives
some interesting statistics dealing
with the distribution Of offices by the
president and the number of persons
who seek them. The information is
compiled from the official records at
the executive mansion, and is there
lore accurate. 1t is shown that 49,
93S individuals have, since March 4th
last, gone to Warrington in person in
quest of Office. Of this number it is
Inquired that one in eighty is rewarded.
This of course does not include the
vast army of offiCe-seekers who send
their applications in by mail, through
a congressman or otherwise.
During the first four months of the
present administration applications
for positions came through the mails
at the rate of 600 per day. The number
has since been somewhat reduced, but
at present more than 300 cOmmunica-
tionS come daily. There are never less
than six and often as Hgh as twenty
applications for each place within the
gift OF the president.
Strictly speaking, the president has
at bis disposal 500 offices not includ-
ing the n0n-presidential postoltices.
OF this number ,J65 have already been
allotted, lie wing 1902 to be DISTRIBUTE
ed. There are now on file an average
Of thirteen applications for each of
these offices, making a total of 60, sos
applications stored away and awaiting
action The endorsements attached to
each application range from five to
we'll M in the hundreds.

ed with quilting of lace. Ruffling by
the yard in gauze, satin and crinkled
chiffon will absorb all your pocket
money this coming summer and spring.
Crepe lisse ruching by the yard for
the neck will appear again, only much
wider that IT used to be and costing
a great deal more.
OVER HEAD AND FACE.
1t is very easy in selecting a SNOWY
hat to choose a too conspicuous one,
but black velvet with wide pleating
of white satin about the crown and
rich trimming of white and black
plumes is a stylish design and seems
to be always in good taste. A few
hats entirely OF white velvet with a
trimming or great ruching of white
muslin have appeared and are dazz-
lingly becoming to the glossy brunettes
of whom We seem to have so many
now that smooth hair list he fashion.
Then green is a color that is often chos-
en- for the large velvet hat and it is
one of these that is shown here. Its
shade was almond green. Its crown
was high and it's brim was very wide,
turning up at the left side, the whole
hat tipping forward slightly. 1t was
edged with black ostrich feather gall
DON, which was also put around the
edge of the crown. The latter was en-
circled by wide band of black MORE
ribbon, and the same ribbon was used
for the large bow that held up the
brim. In the centre of the bow was a
large paste ornament, and above all
were several large black ostrich
plumes.
Wells are just a matter of serious eX-
pense. The very SWEETEST veil, double
width, every thread silk, and sprinkled
closely with large chenille dots, is put
at a price that is discouraging. But
the veil is becoming, and behind it you
can risk a long walk in the flying wind,
certain that your complexion. while it
may appear TO brighten, will not be-
tray itself as SplotChy. To adjust
veil, run drawing string at the upper
edge, not all the way, but just at the
portion which will come above the
forehead. Secure the ends of the
thread after drawing the veil into a
few folds. These folds do not show
as such when the veil is in place, but
the fullness there prevents the veil
from caving in towards the nose, or

An outfit of headwear for a really
we'll dressed woman should include
several hats, and among them should
be one of a SNOWY sort and as pro-
nounced as her station in life, the rest
of her clothes and well, her pocket
book, permit. She will have a little
toque, not so severe but that she can
wear it on the street with tailormade
rig, and she will also have an elaborate
toque or small hat, with bird of para
disc plumes, lovely quilts or beautiful
fiowers-something that will serve for
the theatre or even for a reception.
Then she will have a meretOuch of dis
traction for her official theatre head
dress, and this will serve for receptions
and carriage affairs also. She may
have more than one of this sort of
thing, but one she must have. Then
she will have a demure hat of felt,
one that is carefully conventional, usu-
ally in tourist shape, well made and
of the best material, but very carefully
without too much style. This will
be suitable for afternoon and with
simple and unassuming street gown
that is not too exactly tailormade.
All these make a pretty full list,
and are rather discouraging to the
woman who has only two or three
hats. But even she will want a thea
tire hat, and it is for her that the ac-
cOmpanying picture is intended. 1t
shows hat of pleated chiffon attach
ed to narrow spangled crown, both
being wired to keep their shape. On
either side of the hair were two lace
cascades over which fell sprays of pink
camilias. Two small ostrich tips, one
black, the other white, and a tiny
aigrette compelled the trimming. At
no stage of the recent revivals of favor
for black and white combinations were
the two cOlors more generally put to-
gether than they are now in the tiny
plumes of theatre hats. and besides be-
ing fashionable, they are very pretty.
At about this time she who is very
partiular about her headgear, is send

ing her hats. one after another, to the
milliner to have the backs turned up
and a lift" put in, to tip the hat
forward, or if the hat has already been
so planned, she has the tip renewed.
Now, you will find a lot of hats of the
very best style selling very cheap, and
all because they are not lifted in the
back. You can get such a one have
it lifted, and the result will be an en-
tirely stylish hat at a surprisingly low
cost. 1t may seem very easy to have
a hat lifted at home, but milliner's
assistance is desirable. Your hat should
be lifted somehow.

carried by its middle, and the walk
was as good an imitation of his DELHI
crate stride as skirts would permit.
To look at such woman is to become
sure that if she opened her mouth she
would talk with a drawl, and punctu-
ate her speech with "deah boys and
don't We knows" and that was doubt
less just the appearance after which
she was striving. This style of car
riage, of course, is but a whimsical no
ton that will die out entirely before it
has many adopters, but it is a noticea-
BILE item of the acknowledgement
picturesqueness. The dress shown is
the thing that is worthy of lasting,
and probably will outlast the current
mannerisms of it's wearer. 1t was
gray broadcloth, the skirt trimmed
with eight rows of gray velvet folds
and with a band Of lace. The plain
bodice had a jaunty bolero of the goods
edged with narrow lace and ornament
ed with chased steel buttons. Sailor
collar and revers were trimmed with
velvet folds, and the high corselet belt
was made to match, folds extending
from il on to the skirt. Collar and
sleeves were deged with frills of white
chiffon, and white satin lined the bo-
lerO.
Ribbons of solid color edged with a
contrasting color are no longer a now
city. They are now being sold so low
that it may be as well to invest, be-
cause though gone by as a novelty,
they will still be pretty for a season.
Gauze ribbons will be one thing this
season, and quilted ribbon is another

\ HANDSOME TAILORMADE.

Skaters that have a costume eXclus-
lively for the chilly sport, or that put
a dress to that use first and then use
it as a walking gown, are much TAX
en- with huzzar braiding on cloth. The
bodice is usually lined with chamois,
although champions Of this sport in
sist that fine skater keeps herself
warm by the vigor Of her graceful eX-
ercise. Some artful skaters do make
a point of wearing a bodice that does
not in the least bundle up the figure,

A velvet-edged ruffle of the goods
almond green silk-was attached to
the yoke, which was also velvet ap-
plique trimming.
Silk striped gazine is one of the pref
ty new materials. 1t is intended for
summer wear. though it is already be-
ing made up for dancing class parties
The silk stripes are narrow or wide
though the former give rather the pref
tier effect. and the gauze between is so
delicate that the silk seems almost to
hang free. Grenadines are shown in
all sorts of notifications, and are used
over silk contrasting color with very
dressy effect. Challies are especially
pretty, silky and in exquisite designs
and cOlOring. All sorts OF effects are
secured in silk stripping and insertion
stripes of open work. Indeed, this no.
ton of open work insertion is a feature
of the new goods, and adds much to
the daintiness of the transparent eff
feet so valuable a part of the beauty
Of summer goods.
Berage is to be worn a great deal,
and it's quaint old time look, especially
in the printed varieties, is proving
very attractive. Quaintness of effect
is still to be woed by the girl who is
just sick to death of the stack of mod
ern dresses she has. AS for the girl
who hasn't so many dresses, the little
quaint affair is perhaps a little more
easily managed than a distinctly and
Enthusiastically up-to-date rig, and when
managed seems to disarm instead OF
invite criticism. That is reason enough
for her liking the style, too.

AN EXCELLENT COUNTERFEIT.

AN EXCELLENT COUNTERFEIT.
While the furriers have been delight
ing their customers by the richness
and beauty of their devices, they have
at the same time stimulated the ma
kcrs of imitation furs. and several
copies of peltry have appeared this
winter that certainly make a fine APP
pearance on the shop counter. The
bodice and skirt trimming of this pic
tured dress were from one of these
new material and excellent imitation of
mink, and if the dealer was to be be-
lieved, the stuff was all that could be
desired for durability. The price, of
course, was away below the cost of
real mink, so there was temptation in
it even if the enthusiastic promoter of
it was not altogether convincing. The
skirt and sleeves of this gown were
brown cloth, the sleeves widening into
funnel cuffs lined with white satin.
The belt was white leather secured by
a gold buckle, and the collar was fin
ished with a bow of fine lace, the eX-
elusive combination of lace and real
fur being thus reproduced.
Brown or tanh hose with black shoes
or the reverse, is inadmissible. There
is a tendency to push the wearer Of
russell leather for all street occasions,
and russell shoes and stockings are
seen with all-black costumes. Usu-
ally, however, the idea is supported by
a touch Of brown in the hat, by the
gloves or belt. When black shoes are
worn for the street they should be dull
finish, heavy soled and of general dur
able effect. Patent leather delicate

a touch of fur at the throat, a little
muff, a trimming of fur, making pic
turesuue concession to the require
ments. The hat should always be I'll
ny and on the toque order. Depend
upon it, the women who go skating in
big hats, spend most of their time
watching, for swift skating makes a
big hat most uncomfortable.
Military braiding is plentiful enough
in other than skating rigs, and braid
applied in form or another is now a
characteristic trimming. 1t takes all
manner of elaborate and fanciful de-
signs and is frequently used quite as
freely as it was on the gown sketched
for this picture. In this instance
il was black mohair braid, put on a
wide black diagonal cloth. The sin
gle rever was white cloth, and the
whole gown had tailor finish.
French underwear with it's delicate
material, dainty embroidery, beautiful
cut and it's dainty simplicity is taking
the place of the vulgar lace-burdened
undergarments that used to be pre-
scented for our bewilderment as what
they are wearing" Washable COrsets
are now offered as a solution of the
corset question. They are made with
the bones easily removable, and the
corset goes into the wash, steels and
bones all out, of course, as often as
does any other article of underwear.
\ corset so treated lasts well, because
it is always possible 20 put the bones
back turned the other way, so that the
steels, bent one week one way, and
the next week the opposite way, retain
their spring and straightness.

YOU MUST HAVE LACES.

Lace is quite as much necessity as
a luxury now in dress matters, and the
woman is lucky who has lot of it.
If she hasn't any, she should save up
and buy, coax from her grandmother,
beg or borrow, but she can get along
a lot better without jewels than with
out lace. You cannot have too much,
and the least little bit is worth having,
since it may take the most effective

from stretching across the eyes. A
black veil with colored dots is very be-
coming and in good taste when worn
with the right hat. For instance, if
bright green suits your complexion, a
hat that in it's trimming shows touch
of bright green may be worn under a
veil with bright green chenille dots
on black ground with excellent eff
feet. Violet dots and brown dots on
black ground are equally happy il we'll

bit on the new dress. A glance at
this picture shows how essential to its
beauty lace was, and yet there wasn't
a great deal Of it. A handsome lace
jabot finished the front, and frills were
put at the wrists; that was all of the
lace, but there are stripes of dark green
velvet on the skirt, sleeves and yoke,
and the collarette of braid and velvet
was finished by a huge velvet collar.
