tiful goods, couldn't we make lovely
gowns of themw The other girl bega u
to think, and in few days proposed
to her friend 10 form n partnership n
designers of evening and summer
gowns. Together they made several
rough colored sketches of muslin gowns,
which they took to some of their moro
fashionable acquaintance to see what
they thought of them. In almost every
instance they received orders for ono
or more gowns. When these orders
increased sufficiently to make the ven
ture safe, they began work in earnest.
They employed competent Hrench
dressmakers aud filters, and opened
parlors, where their designs aud SAM
pie gowns are shown. Their custom
ers select their designs aud materials
from samples shown by the firm. aud
they guarantee n perfect fit and finish.
As they make only one gown after
design, their patrons are certain that
no one else will have n garment just
like their own. Besides building up n
very fiourishing business in New York
and the vicinity, they have been offered
good salaries by several of the largo
houses which make specially of stylish
ready-made gowns and waists as de-
signers.-

Girls as Church Co,lcc,ors

The Rev. DIR. Thomas, of the Me
thodist Episcopal Church Mt Hillsdale,
N. j., does not preside over congre-
CATION as large as city churches have,
but he has just demonstrated that he
is mp to date in his ideas.
A surprise was in store for the con
gregation when the minister began his
discourse. He said he had decided to
adopt novel method to get good
collection, and when he stated that
young women would pass the collec-
ton boxes there was astonishment.
The young women had been selected.
and to them the pastor said:
81 have known great power in pretty
smiles in collecting money for good
work"
CHANGING significantly Mt the young
men seated in the rear pews, DIR.
Thomas continued: "Now. young
ladies, / want you to smile right into
the generosity of this congregation
aud penetrate their pocketbooks. -
The collection was for the education
of young men who wanted to enter the
ministry, and before the pastor pro-
nounced the benediction he wore n
look Of satisfaction, indicating that the
smiles of the girl collectors had been
triumphant. New York Tribune.

While Justice Hart, of Cleveland,
Ohio, was sitting in his Office late
Tuesday afternoon, he was aroused
from his meditation by n ripple of
laughter ut his Office door. A company
OF three young ladies aud an elderly
gentleman entered The girls each
wore neat bicycle suit, with short
skirts and cap. One of the merry
wheel-women announced that she de-
sired to he launched on the sea of
matrimony, and to have her name
changed from Miss Martha Elber to
Mrs. Charles L. Wilkes. The justice
looked out of the door for the would
be groom, but the young lady pointed
to the elderly gentleman. The bicy-
Gle bride was about seventeen years
old, while the groom appeared to be
thirty years her senior. The bicycle
bridesmaids Riggled, the bicycle bride
blushed and the old gentleman looked
serious, while the justice performed
the ceremony.-Ch Chicago Tribune.

ing, enough will be wasted in few
years to pay for building in which to
store it. The old notion was, that the
barn for storing hay should be open
and that the doors should all be left
open to air the hay, but now people
have learned that the tighter the barn
and the closer it is kept shut, the
greener the hay can be stored with
safety and the better it will keep. In

Her Fine jump.

Six feet and one inch is fine record
for running high jump, and for a
woman it is extraordinary.
1t has been made by seventeen
year-old Brooklyn school girl. The
worlds amateur record is at present
held by NJ. f. Sweeney, with feet
81 inches. Ten years ago the best
man could not beat the jump of 6 feet
i inch made by Miss Louise Brooks.
In 1887 the record for the United
States was held by T.. w. Johnson,
with only feet IL inches.
Miss Brooks is the daughter of
George w. Brooks, and is the cham
pion feminine athlete of AGelphia
Academy. For eight years she has
been n pupil in that school, and IN
enthusiast in athletics and gymnastics.
She easily carries off the palm rs the
best all-around athlete in n large class
Of girl gymnasts, and her powers and
endurance, her grace and agility. are
simply marvellous.
Miss Brooks comes of family Of
athletes. She is the only daughter
among six children Her five brothers
are all athletes and her eldest brother
was n champion of Amherst during his
college life. From n tiny girl Miss
Louise loved outdoor sports better
than the pastimes usually sought by
little maids. Tops, marbles aud ball
were her toys instead Of dolls and
miniature dishes and housekeeping
utensils. She learned TO throw ball
like boy-a clean, strnight throw
instead of in the curiously lame fashion
which most girls adopt. She grew up
n sturdy, straight-limbed maiden with
well-developed muscles When she
went to the Academy she took to the
gymnasium rs n duck takes to water. -

Our rule has been to begin turning

IT is almost obligatory this year that
your gloves match your parasol and
the flowers on your hat, and il they
also match the flowers on your dress,
why you will be so much the better
gowned.
To get this idea fully, imagine a
black and white striped silk, with
roses in Dresden effect scattered over
it. Now fancy this dress trimmed
with white talfeta, on which there are
tiny rose sprays with embroidered
leaves. You will see the Dresden in
all colors, with taffetas to match; and
for every shade there is pair of
gloves.
Now select hat of white chip, with
pink roses upon the front and with
pink roses and green ribbon at the
back, and to this add pink gloves and
n pink parasol.

When Exposed to the Light.

Precious stones are liable to one
common infirmity-that of adding or
losing color when long exposed to the
light. The emerald, the sapphire and
the ruby suffer the least, their colors
being as near permanent as color can
be. In the case of the garnet and to-
.paz the change is more rapid than in
that of the ruby and sapphire, but
there is curious difference in the re-
suit in topaz and garnet, for, while
the latter grows lighter the former APP.
