Why Women Follow It--Costume of Fuch-
STA Colored Faille.
If woman is asked, especially if it is
with an accent of disapprobation, why she
follows the fashion in the matter of cloth
ing, she will answer because she wants
to look like other people," If she is asked
why she gives so much attention and
thought to the selection and trimming of
her gowns, instead of buying and wearing
whatever it is the easiest to come by, she
will say because she "doesn want to look
like everybody else." TO the masculine
mind this is beautiful example of wom-
ans illogical reasoning but the two an
swers are really not at all Incompatible
A woman wants to look like other people
in respect of not being shabby or out of
date or unpleasantly conspicuous by reason
of the oddity of her ATTIRE but she also
wants her costume to be stamped with her
own individuality, so that 1t will belong
obviously to her and to no one else. Any
one who has ever been in large clothing
establishment where many lay figures are
standing about dressed in more or less
elaborate gowns must have noticed what
an air of sameness these gowns have, even
when they are of different qualities and
materials. This Is because they were made

FAILLE COSTUME,

for no one individual, but, as 1t were,
for woman in the abstract. When woman
in the concrete purchases one of these Co.'S
tunes, the first thing she does Ia to take
something off here, add something there,
change something somewhere else and
generally adapt the gown to her own per-
sonality rendering 1t different from the
others, even those of the same material
and pattern.
The illustration given today shows a
costume of fuchsia colored faille The
skirt is ornamented near the foot by three
wide bands Of galloon, embroidered with
spangles and gold, which stop at either
side of the tablier. The lower edge of the
skirt has frill of gold taffeta ON the in
side. The blouse bodice has very short,
full basque and closes under the arm. 1t
is trimmed with embroidered galloon, sim
ulating a sort of bolero, and has epaulets
of the same trimming. The close sleeves
are slightly bouffant at the top The col
lar and belt are of embroidered galloon.
A frill of lace finishes the neck and sleeves
The hat is composed of fuchsia faille, like
the gown, and is trimmed with bow of

NEW CoIFFuRE

The goods should be squeezed in soapy
water, and the water should be changed
several times until the last water re-
mains clean. The material must then be
folded so that 1T is Of three or four thick
nesses and pulled gently crosswise and
lengthwise 1t can be pressed with hot
iron while still damp, but this ia not de-
sirable, because the iron is apt to push the
threads aside and spoil the ovonness of
the weaving. The best way is to continue
to pull it softly until 1T is perfectly dry,
and as it dries quickly this will not take
long. Washing gauze gives 1t surface
like very fine Grape, but that is no especial
disadvantage

BUSINESS IN the WEST,

President E. P. Ripley, of the Atohison,
Topeka & Santa Fe railroad, is of the
opinion that prosperity has reached the
west. BY reason of Mr.. Ripley's intimate
knowledge of the conditions in the coun-
try on this side of the Missouri river, no
one is better able to state his reasons for
thinking business revival has come, or
to point out wherein the farmers and
business men of vast section of country
are benefcares of that revival. In speak
ing of the marked change that has taken
place within the last SIX months, Mr.. Rip
Icy said:
every one understands that business
throughout the west has, during the past
few months, improved, and improved ma
terially. If there be one doubter left be
must be man blind to facts and deaf to
reason. Railroad earnings have told the
tale of improvement. With positive
proofs of that sort staring him in the face
no man, however pessimistic he may be-
can refuse to recognize the truth. OF
course, this western improvement has
been due largely to the abnormal natural
conditions that have combined to make
1897 year of years. The western farmer,
who represents the basis of all our wealth
and upon whose prosperity depends that
of the whole country, has this year fallen
upon most wonderful fortune. His own
crops of grain are bountiful, while those
of his com mpetitors elsewhere throughout
the world are, taken generally, small and
poor beyond precedent. He suddenly
finds himself in a position where the
whole world must come to him for it's
bresdstuffs-in position to dictate, at
his own will, the prices at which these
breadstpffs will be supplied. He can see
in the near future the worlds consumers
bidding one against another for the cereal
products which he alone has to sell. And
this condition of affairs has developed
just at a time when the American farmer,
his financial resources about at an end
and his patience almost exhausted, was
suffering most acutely. Years of depres-
sion and low prices, one following upon
another, have made him well.nigh hope
less. In fact, his dependency has be-
come 80 deeply rooted that he finds it
hard now to get rid of it. He must be-
lieve perforce that good times have ar
rived--he sees that for himself. But there
is still suspicion as to their durability.
Generally speaking, however, the west is
confident. Men IN positions to see the
trend of affairs and to gauge it's signif.
canoe are talking not only with hope, but
with assurance and positiveness. I'm.
provement once started must 20 on. The
depression has lasted so long that con-
sumption has caught up with production
the demand has caught up with the sup
ply. Stocks Of goods are not only low

IT is reported upon good authority that
the English own two-thirds of the Amer

the action of the governor of the Bank of

that that institution would hold one fifth
of its reserve in silver, despite the pro-
tests of the bankers and other business
men of the tight little island. In most

Silk stockings should be washed in cold

Silk gauze and nousseline de sole are
rather expensive luxuries, not on account
of their original cost, which is not great,
but because they are so delicate and have
to be renewed SO frequently. A great deal
of white gauze has been and will be worn
for vests, full fronts and oravats, and it
may not be generally known that this ma
terial can be washed. OF course the wash
ing has to be done very carefully and can
