The New Shoulder Capes.

A noticeable feature of the new shout
der capes and fichulike wraps is their
extreme shortness and excessive full
ness, carried so far in some instances as
to make them look most ridiculous ar
tiCles of dress, number of French
styles having row after row of immense
plated ruches set upon the little circu-
lar foundation. These models more than
ever give the wearer thereof bisonlike
appearance from the fact that from the
broad, distended, befrilled cape down
she is made to look by fashions latest
within as svelte and willowy as possible.
Laces of every rich description, accord
ion plated lisse, muslin and chiffon,
grenadine, china silk, etamine, faille
and taffeta, with elegant jet ornaments
and ribbons for gaTniture, compose the
majority of black capes. The white lace
and lisse models for very special wear
are garnished with guipure sprays and
incrustations Ell applique. These numer-
Gus capes are rivaled by pretty little
summerlike garments which have a
short jacket effect front and back. I'm
der the arms it reaches nearly to the
waist, but slopes upward to form long
V. This opening unites little above
the shoulder blades. The wing sleeves,
which do not reach the elbows, are COM
posed of wide fiounces of plated lisse,
with rich lace epaulets on the shoulders.

The English Patent ONCE Library.

IL the poor inventor is not entirely
ignorant of patent procedure, he knows
that the patent office makes no search to
test the validity of his invention, and
so he comes to undertake it himself. If
he finds that his invention appears in
no previous patent, he is confirmed in
his belief that he will at last see his
dreams realized and that he will in a
short time possess great wealth. IT, on
the other hand, he finds his ideas have
been anticipated, his dreams of fortune
fade away like mist before a morning
sun, and life, as he has known it for so
many weary years-hard, toilsome, pit
Hess to those who, like himself, lack
money-lies painfully clear before his
view.
A short three hours-or even less
spent in this library may plunge the
man who entered it hopeful and bright
into deepest despair, and 1t is certain
that within its walls many silent TRACE.
dies of this kind are enacted week by
week and noticed by only few if any of
those around. But inventors are hope
full race, and though some who suffer
such disappointment of all their hopes
may never recover from it there is no
doubt many recommence their expert
ments and elaborate other inventions
from which they expect the same, OF
even greater, realities of wealth and
happiness. -Chamber Journal
