United States. They are contemplating
the formation of a pool to buy up S0,-
600, 900 gallons of whisky now in bond

The plan necessarily means an adj

the other reasons urged is the statement
that the banks which have loaned
money on the liquor held in bond are
afraid of a decline in price which will

very charming style for morning
blouses in flannel or cashmere is to
make them with Follower collars and
turn-back cuffs edged with soft frills
of lighter silk. Nothing simpler OF
prettier for young girls could be de-
sired.
Chenille spotted veilings unquestion-
ably have the preference. Cream and
black bordered goods are also popular,
the efghteen-inch width being the most
generally worn. In some instances
there is an extra fullness OF velhng
beneath the chin, and for persons with
the English feminine cast Of counte-
nance this is rather becoming. Be
yond, question. the fashionable colors
in wells this coming season, as at pres
ent, will be black, medium brown,
cream and black on white.
In neckWear, I notice that crinkled
tissues, in many effects and widely d.
yergent colors form the basis OF style.
There is almost endless variety, ana
those who know tell me there does nos
as yet seem to be any decided prefer
ence for any particular style or color.
Sashes of MORE, liberty gauze and
India silk are very popular. The ma
iority are tucked in clusters, while
bands of lace and tiny frills In rows
make them very attractive. The SASH

nearly reach the hem Of the skirt.

The taste for the flash and glitter OF
jeweling and jewels has abated, but
not died down. It is now at q more
refined stage, when the sparkle of a few
ornaments amid the softness of velvet,

subject for q future article-but from
the richness of the materials I have
seen, and from the prevalence of jewel
ing as an adornment for the past two
seasons, I look forward to finding
distinct change for this winter.
The jeweled ornament in neckbow,
fur, and toque is feature of present
fashion, and jeweled hat and bonnet
pins are more popular than ever. 1t is
truism to state that when these
are good they are charming, and when
they are bad they are tawdry and Vul-
gar. Everyone cannot afford to have
them real, therefore 1 used the word
good" advisedly, for some of the Pari-
sian diamond ornaments, with which
are combined other wonderful initiated
stones, and always in the very latest
groupings and the most refined set
tings, look as well, used for this pur-
pose, as real gems of the very best
description. A black velvet toque, with
high black feathers at one side, rising
from a big knot of emerald green rib
bon, would look twice as stylish If fas-
tened on with pins having pearl-shaped
cabochon emerald heads set in little
diamond cups. These are not costly

look expensive and ,up-to-date, while
the cost is not great, and the ornament

Among the new materials we meet
such old friends as terry velvet. In
it's absence it has acquired new and
improved face. 1t is as soft and rich
as silk velvet now, with the added at

not long before the supply of chamols tails
ran out and for a week they were in dis
may. without the gemsbart the hat would
be a commonplace alpine. Then some IN
genious and enterprising manufacturer dis
covered that a very good imitation OF the
chamois brush could be made of silk. This
relieved the pressure and will probably save
the life Of many channels.
Prince Alexander of Teck, who Is soon 70
VISIT this country, has a Marienbad hat and
wears it wherever he rides, shoots or drives.
The hat has become popular craze and may
be seen at every English country house gath

Lenox and before the winter Is over we may
expect to see them quite commonly worn.

and give elasticity and grace to the
movement After a few months weak
and delicate children become strong
and sound in health and BODY, ana
heavy, indolent boys and girls become
light and supple. Experience teaches
us that one organ Of the BODY snouio

the others. We see a proof Of this
every day Look at dancers, for IN
stance-how pronounced their legs
are and how thin and uniformed are
their arms: and that, because only
their legs have been duly exercised.
A healthy woman's gymnastics
should have in view only the perIec-
ton of her organism, by developing
the beauty of her form and the grace
Of her movements. Walking, running
and jumping are natural gymnastics.
The hoop and skipping rope are ex-
cellent gymnastics for children. But
to give grace there is nothing so good
as dancing, and dancing cannot be
taught too soon to children. They
learn how to sit. stand, move ana
walk gracefully, and these gracelul
habits once acquired nothing can
destroy. =,

WALES SETS THE FASHION.
Albert Edward FOpuIarizes n Most
Amazing Hat.

If you wish to be strictly up to date in
the matter of your outing heaGgear, you will
import d Tyroiese felt hat and have it Orna-
mented with a gemsbart. Perhaps you don't
know a gemsbart when you meet one? Well.
gemsbart is Tyrolean for chamos tail and 1t
is the brush of that much sought mountain
goat. 1t must not be stuck in the side OF
the band or yet in the front, although those
are the positions in which hat decorations ton
be fastened to the band in the back and
stick up like paint brush above the crown.
When you get one of these hats, people may
think you have got it on the wrong way,
but you may be satisfied to know that 1t is
exactly ike the one which the Prince Of
Wales has adopted and like those which are
being worn by British swells all over the
United Kingdom. 1t is Albert Edwards own
fancy. He invented it while staying at Ma
rienbad, a hitherto obscure but now famous
German watering place, famous because the
new Prince of Wales hat is known as the
Marienbad and advertised as such by all the
fashionable hatters of London.
The prince is said to have been SO p-eased
with the sensation which he created when ne
first appeared in his new hat that he i'm
mediateiy ordered six more. His first ones

The Queen of sweden,s Bed Room.

The bed room OF the queen of Sweden is
large and airy, but is furnished with the
greatest simplicity. The walls are papered
with a cream-colored paper with a small gilt
design and the hangings are of royal blue
rep, with border of gold, and blue. The
bed is q huge one of mahogany, and the
carpet is blue. The walls are covered with
photographs of members of the queens
family. The book shelves contain many re-
lIgious works. as the queen is a good and
