Cheap Cow and Hog Feed.

The Pine Bluff Mill < Elevator Co has on hand large quantity of corn bran which it will sell at wholesale or retail at at very low price. Corn bran makes an excellent feed for hogs when soured and fed as swill. It is equally effective for cattle and cen be bought for half the prices of corn. The low price of cattle and hogs this season make it imperative for stock raisera to obtain feed at the lowest values, and all parties engaged in this line will do well to call upon or write the Mill & Elevator Company for prices. 1215 swtf

social rank and eonneeted with various philanthropie educational and eharita- ble organizations. This fraternizing of talent is productive of much good, the amateurs being just the kind of friends required by young women employed in newspaper work, for, while many of the latter have never lowered their standard of refined expression, others cannot resist the temptation to write smart things at any cest,
 Such club as the Scribblers' gives an opportunity for tho women of leisure and wealth and the women who have taken high rank in authorship to com bine their influence and provide a safe- guard, by their friendship, for those who may need it. A noteworthy fact of this fellowship is the grateful affection shown by the younger members toward these whose influence has been helpful to them, some of the most successful re- ferriug their achievements rather to the guidance of some friendly and eminent literary woman than to the possession of native talent
 The Scribblers are not without aims other than that of mutual advancement. They have founded an art scholarship. providing funds to educate a young girl for this profession, and as their mem- bership increases they expect to find larger field for work. They have no per manent quarters, and need none, for they have a standing invitation to use a private parlor in any of the leading city hotels Their meetings are held fort nightly, and their programmes cover most interesting variety of subjects, amusing as well as instructive.

Many such have been established by churches and charitable societies, de- signed to eounteraet the dangerous in- fiuenees of the street by offering resorts at once attractive and refining, and such efforts are worthy of all eommendation. But the new boys club is different. It is not dependent on charity, public or private. for it's maintenance. It is run by tho boys themselves.
 This club is composed of number of ambitious working boys who desire pleasant and elevating surroundings for their leisure hours They have made their moral requirements just as high as those which obtain at the St. Nicholas and the Knickerbooker, and their mem- bership list is already full.
 Their rooms are located in the base ment of 200 Eldridge street, ill one of the most crowded quarters of the city of

Two Pretty vIsIting costumes.

"A handsome costume saw recently, worn by visitor who was calling at the house of friend, was of mixed brown and white oheviot. The skirt was quite plain. The bodice showed short Eton jacket of the oheviot, square and fitted in the back as we'll as in the front, D writes Isabel A. Mallon in The Ladies' Home Journal. "The vest had a full front of white chiffon and about the waist was broad, fitted belt of green velvet, the belt fastened in front under large cut steel buttons. The sleeves were fitted ones of the cheviot, with two far ing caps of green velvet above each at the shoulder. A white satin stock was the neck finish. The hat had brim of pli- able brown felt, puffed crown of green velvet, and a cluster of brown feathers was caught at one side under steel or nament. The gloves were light tan dressed kid, and the huff was of mink lined with dark green satin. The cape was of mink. It had a square back, high medioi collar and long, square ends.
 "Another handsome visiting costume showed fiaring skirt of black moire, with broeaded globes upon it of the same hue The bodice was really mar duise coat of black velvet, with waist coat of striped black and white silk, soft and full, showing between thssfar- ing fronts The sleeves of the velvet were somewhat full at the top; then they dropped and shaped into the arm, fitting closely at the wrists, faring over the hands sufficiently to permit the sleeve to be turned back, and faced in cuff fashion with the black and white striped silk. The collar was folded one of white chiffon with three overlapping points of black velvet, each caught with a tiny jet ornament. To wear with it there was a short ripple cape of black astrakhan and huff to match, while the elese fitting bonnet was of black vel vet with bunch of white tips on one side and two or three astrakhan heads and an elaborate jet ornament on the other. Heavy white gloves, closing with two buttons, were wern ]"

A nebutants.a reoentlon.

AS Tn the gay wiiAer months befofe Lent there will be many dances and dinners and an opera season, besides all the other social doings in which our debutante is to take her part, her intro duotion must not be delayed too long after things are fairly started. Saturday is now the day invariably chosen. Then men, who are of course always a desir able adjunct to any such occasion, have leisure and will for this particular event perhaps waive their prejudice to after noon affairs ill general. So about two weeks before the day all the friends and aequaintanees on the visiting list of the debutante's s mother who live in the same place, and also those who live in the suburbs or near enough to be able to exchange calls with her, receive cards of invitation. These cards are q little larger than an ordinary visiting card, and, engraved in fine running script, read as follows:
 Mrs. Charles Moulton Johnson,
 Miss Johnson,
 At homo
 Saturday, December the seventh,
 From four until seven. Fridays, 834 St. Nicholas avenue. Friday being the hostess customary receiving day, her daughter will hence forth be at home then also, and it is at that time that guests invited to the re- eeption are expected to make their after call. These cards are inclosed in envel- opes which fit them exactly, and are ad. dressed and sent by mail. Two or more cards sent to the same family may be inolosed ill one outside envelope, the names only being written on the inside envelopes and the address with the names of the heads of the household on the outside one Or the cards may be sent separately, as preferred. -Harper's Bazaar.
