AUTUMN NOVELTIES.
Winter Costumex-Black Vet
vet Gowns.

One OF the attractive novelties of the
autumn is 4 little jacket of peau de
suede in gray or the natural color.
This is some times a bolero, or is cut
with short skirts and doubie-breasted
front. 1t is worn With plaid cravat
and plain skirt Of black or ~hite. The
tailors also make kid vests for cloth
suits and kid appears in millinery as
we'll.
If one is getting tired of the becom-
ing square bow under the chin, a nov
city is broad ribbon that tics in two
short loops, and ends that fall almost
to the hem of the skirt. Another
CHECKER is a velvet band and two stiff
loops, between which the chin rests.
So many coat and skirt suits are
worn this season that a number of
fancy or separate blouses are neces-
sary. 1t would seem difficult to find
anything new in fancy top, but
the Rue de la Paix places that make Il
speciality of these bodices manage to
keep us supplied with novelties. Silk
waists made with tiny corded tuclls
will be fashionable for the autumn,
but there is always an attempt to ar
range the tucks in some novel fashion.
\ waist made with three box plaits in
front may have the plaits Of The corded
silk and the rest of the garment plain
a pretty top has yoke and tops of
sleeves of tucked silk and the rest
plain. This top may be made more
dressy by covering the plain part with
lace. Another fancy silk waist has n
yoke of lace with box plaits over it,
front and back. The sleeves have three
circular plaits above the elbows. with
lace between. The close sleeves give
all the waists severe look. and ore
realizes how much of the success of
the fancy bodice was due to the bal
loon sleeves.
We see good many perforated
cloths. A bolero jacket of perforated
cloth is nice when made with plain
skirt and when the apron Of the skirt
is perforated to match it.
dressy costume for the winter will
be Louis XIV. jacket of heavy black
lace, worn with fancy silk skirt.
Fringes of silk and chenille, especial
~ the latter, will be used to trim sill;
costumes. There is a chenille net
shown as a novelty, and this will be
used mounted over silk in the manner
Of lace. This appears in smart call
ing gown. The skirt is of green silk,
covered by the black chenille ret. The
coat is of black velvet. cut with the
round Louis XIV. coattails that show
the green lining. The front of the coat
is short. and is closed by ornaments
made of twisted ropes of green velvet
The dressmalters say that they will
make entire gowns of black velvet
This is fashion always popular, and
the revival of it will be welcomed
However, the black velvet coat and
silk skirt is the style we expect to see
the most of for calling purposcs.-N

that she might know if you had found

Her voice was husky with emotion,
and it touched him. He turned to the
hatrack to hang up his overcoat, but it
slipped from his fingers and the Bible

The two visitors rose, and taking their

Reaching the outside, they walked side

reached the vehicle, Lamplzin suddenly

OLD NEW BULLS.
Some Odd Sayings Which Have Beer
Revived and Put to the Light
Once More.

hibiting revived interest in Irish
bulls" The London Telegraph seems
to have opened its columns to CORE
spondents, who send it the achieve
ments of various Hibernian minds. A
| great many of those printed are older
than any 1rishman now living, but
some of them are-tc us, a t least-neW.
Perhaps the best of them is merely
variation of the old bull, but it is
amusing:
IL saw some funny things in England
when was over there" said Cork
man. "The tops of some of the houses
were copperbottomed wild lead"
A gentleman talking of seasickness
remarked that nothing on this earth
would make him seasick." This must
be very old BULL for the confusion il
suggested by the fact that carsck.
ness is the same malady under a diff
ferent name.
Here is another bull which is an old
friend with a new face:
The foreman of grand jury in the
west had been presented for some pub
lie service with gold watch. of which
he was very proud; and as he dis
played it at dinner of the grand
jury bets were. made by members as
to whose watch was the most accu-
rate. At last some one suggested that
it was impossible to decide. ''Oh,"
said the foreman, there's no difficulty
about that. There's a sun-dial in the
garden, and We'll take lantern and
decide the bets that way"
There were no gold watches in Ath-
ems in the age of the literary glory
of Greece; but an extremely ancient
Greek joke reports the same sugges-
ton of inspecting sun-dial at night
