the upper portions deeply ribbed anC

the waist sharply defined by means o.
the belt. Maroon, dark blue, garnet
black and white are the colors seen. Ii
many cases the sweaters are to be chosen
for bicycling on account of their flexi

but they are not very dressy or feminine
With these sweaters and with shirt

we see worn English grain leather belti

Other of the English leather belts have
bicycle pockets attached to them. There
are belts for both women and men Of
alligator and seal, lined with leather
and finished very simply, but strongly.
There are suede finish silk gloves fol

1t is said they hold as firmly as the kid
ones, are more porous and consequently
cooler, while the cost is hardly more
than fourth as great.

DIV at one side, with stiff feather above
it. A red parasol, with doubled red
ruff1e edged with narrow white lace,
was one very important part of the cos
tune. The chief beauty of this costume
as one made particularly for tennis is
that it is compact, dainty and graceful,
while the most active movements can
not put a particle of it out of place or
make the wearer look frouzy. Another
very novel and fetching costume for
tennis was shown. This would have
been rank heresy few years ago. There
was first light taffeta wrap reaching
to the bottom of the dress. This had a
yoke and sort of cape of accordion
plated silk done ON the selvage. There
were no sleeves, and it was probably
designed to hide the glory of the gown
beneath until exactly the right moment.
/ should have said this wrap was in
changeable tints of violet and green.
The hat was sailor shape, with plaid
ribbons in green violet and red. The
parasol was tartan taffeta without or
nament Indeed, ornament would have
been superfiuous ON this, as it could
easily assert itself. So when the right
moment comes, and the pretty tennis girl
slips off the long wrap and stands con-
fessed in a pearl white tamise dress
made with three skirts, each edged
with canary colored scalloped stripe
of brocade, she becomes the object of
interest Her waist is made with
loosely gathered lower portion, which
is drawn in slightly with harness belt
of tanned leather. The yoke is pointed
deeply and is of the brocade. The
sleeves have loose puffs az the top,
while the fore part has deep pointed
cuffs.
A young married lady whose taste is
considered perfect has just had coach
ing costume made that is remarkably
handsome. The skirt was of the rich
black armure silk which is noncrush
able and always in fashion. There was
a shirt waist of black and white striped
silk, with a fold of the silk OVERLAND
with fine white lace insertion and
stock finished with frill of the white
lace at the top and cravat bow at the
throat. There was jacket Of blood red
broadcloth, tailor stitched and with
binding of black silk braid on the revers
and sleeve caps. The hat matched the
costume, having a red velvet brim and
a black straw crown, with black lace
and ostrich tips to finish. The parasol
was of red silk with full ruffles of black
silk null OVERLAND with fine white lace.
Such costume, while really elegant,
would make the wearer the central
point of observation almost anywhere.

A baby's cheeks may be too waxen-white
and its body too puny, and when that's the
case, baby's cheeks won't dimple or its lips
laugh, and death is in its eyes.
Above all things woman wants healthy
baby and she may have one if she will but
use the right remedy for weakness and dis
ease of the delicate and important organs
that make baby possibility. DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is the best of all med
icines for prospective or would-be mothers.
1t makes woman's distinctive organism
strong, healthy and vigorous. 1t allays in
fammation, soothes pain and heals ulcera
ton. 1t banishes the discomforts of the
waiting time and makes the little new
comer's entree to the world easy and almost
painless. 1t insures baby's health. In
writing for advice to DR.. r. w. Pierce, for
thirty years chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
at Buffalo, N. ", mother, wife or maid
writes to one of the most eminent and skill
full specialists in the world, at the head of a
staff of physicians that has treated over
10000 women.

the names of three ladies who were sterile, -
writes Mrs. NJ A. Scott, of Park Rapids, Hubbard
and had no children, and after taking DR. Pierce s
Favorite Prescription she gave birth to big girl
inside of year. The other one was confined
within year and half after going six years
without having any children. ! do not know
how the third one came out, for we moved away"
Torpid liver and constipation are surely
and speedily cured by DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. They never gripe. They regulate,
tone up and invigorate the liver, stomach
and bowels. No substitute urged by mer-
cenary dealers is as good.

Pretty fanoies are wrought out on
many dresses by the use of braids and
velvet ribbons, which have a popularity
due, we are told, to the queens jubilee.
There are some of them with thick
corded silk edges in different colors,
but probably the most striking are those
with white edges. These velvets are
employed in any and every way. Bay
adere stripes are made by several rows
set ON straight around a skirt in gradu-
ated widths. Blue and white in combi-
nation for dressy toilets are as popular
as ever and are certainly very hand
some. One has full vest front of white
taffeta and an eton jacket of dark blue
cravanette. This has false figaro above
it, and all the space left on the eton
front is covered by lines of white braid,
though in one case the eton was OF
striped silk, with crush belt and bow
of the same, but the whole was blue
and white in each case. Brown and
white and green and white treated in
the same way are. used together with
pleasing effect.
Basques and jackets Of every style
and shape are fashionable, and boleros,
etons and fgaros are all seen hourly.
Some of them bear very small family
resemblance to the originals. There was
very dainty tan taffeta for young
lady, the skirt laid in folds all around,
save in front. By the way, may NEIL
tion that all sorts of upright plaits and
folds are very popular just now for all
but wash dresses. Bias folds are also
seen often on fine gowns. The waist to
this tan gown was draped in full sur
plice in front and was brought down to
rounded point in the back in three or
four small plaits and there held with a
small shirred bow of the silk. The sur
plice ended in stirring held by jew
eled buckle. The sleeves had stingy
little puff at the top, with pointed tabs
as caps. The yoke was cut in long points
all around, and these, as we'll as the caps,
were bordered with ivory lace. This
| yoke was mentioned as q figaro, but it
! requires practiced eye and grain of
salt to accept it as such.
Among what one may call novelties
one finds the sweaters for ladies for
cycling. They reach but little below the
| waist line and may be worn with the
| belt outside or vice versa, as one pre-
| fers. They button up on the shoulders

Braids and Velvet Ribbons-New Styles
In Basques and Jackets.
copyright. 1897. by the Author.l
Coaching trips and all the outdoor
sports for women call for garments de-
signed expressly for each special one.
For several seasons tennis gowns were
made loose, rather short and in some
cases of remarkable colors in stripes or
plaids. Next came light flannels, with
odd embroidery to form rackets and
balls. This had the outlines made of
white rope and the crossings done with
thick cord overhanded on. In fact,
there have been few like this shown
this season, but think that the day for
croquet mallets and tennis rackets and
foul anchors has gone, and / hope for
ever. They have made way for new
style Of pretty and picturesque dresses
that ornament the wearer and make the
waste places of the earth beautiful.
There was a dainty dress, pretty
enough for any occasion, made for ten
mis- party. 1t was cream colored pique
with fine black dots. Down each front
breadth seam there was row of black
lace insertion sewed ON fat. This also
extended around the hips, just below
the lowest of three black velvet ribbons
in form of swiss girdle. Each of
these ribbons was held in point by an
imitation sapphire button. The sleeves
were loose but not too large gigots and
were trimmed with one row of the lace
insertion set ON line with another row
sewed across the bust in zigzag shape.
Below this was very pretty ar
rangement of cross tucks of the mate.
rial, and above it three velvet ribbons
met in loops on the shoulders. The
plain stock had three pointed rows OF
ribbon, with sapphire buttons. on the
points. To wear with this gown was
made and provided rough straw hat
with high crown. Around the brim
there was trimming of white lace
and black velvet, with double red pop.

Mrs Maybrick 8 Hard Fate.

| WASHINGTON, September lit is
maintained that both officially and per-
sonally, within the bounds by which
he was limited by diplomatic usage,
ex-Ambussador Bayard did everything
| in his power in behalf of the alleged
| murderess, Mrs. Maybrick, aud the
| archives of the state department it is
declared contain abundant evidence in
support of this assertion. The friends
of MIR. Bayard point to the fact tn at
even Lord Chief Justice Russell, who
is a firm believer in the innocence of
the American woman, has, even with
his great social prestige and official
influence, been unable to secure even
a mitigation of the prison routine to
which the unfortunate woman is
subject. The facts known here
n relation to the Mayb-ick
case baar out the positive assert
ions that have been made from time to
ime by people who are on the inside of
official affairs in London that it is
Queen Victoria herself who stands be-
tween the prisoner and the exercise of
clemency, that both the present home
secretary and his two predecessors
have vainly endeavored to induce her
majesty to recognize by the exercise of
mercy the strong sentiment on this
question that exists in the United
States, ard that SO long rs the queen
remains in her present mind upon the
subject, all effort to bring about
Mrs. May bricks release will be futile.
1t can be further added that the re-
pots that the Prince and Princess of
Wales are sympathetically disposed
toward the woman are founded on
fact.
