FASHION AND FABRIC.

aathing suits In patriotic color nelanges
~ set forth for tho summer season.
The gray gowns this year arc extremely
dainty and handsome, and they appear In
every sort Of material.
Knife plated frills appear once again
among the fluffy trimmings Of tho airy
summer gowns both for day and evening
wear.
There arc no surprising novelties In
parasols This year. Chiffon is almost ON
niprescnt, and when this is absent lace Is
found.
A very large portion Of the diaphnnous
silks and muslins this year arc trimmed
with loops, bowknots bands and floating
ends of velvet ribbon Of medium width.
The now "drcsdcn" challies aro manu-
:actured in Lyons, and they show many
of the very attractive designs popular in
tho silks and small patterned satins Of lost
winter.
It seems quite likely that tho rev re-
trousso hats, turning abruptly off tho face,
will be very strong rivals this season to
those worn very far forward or tilted up
at one side and down on tho other.
The navy and army blue serges, foulards,
,nohairs and lightweight costume cloths
are made into stylish tailor costumes for
travelling and general wear, that hold
their own against all tho endless smart
and novel gowns which tho present season
has produced.
The most elegant black gowns just now
shown at The "nloerting houses arc OF very
lustrous watcrcd silk, made in princess
style and trimmed very clnborately on tho
bodice portion and front Of tho gown with
black lace, with girtlle and yoke, bretellc
or vest piece Of the finest cut jet.
Bright colorcd capes Of plated silk mus
lin, lissc, chiffon and transparent silk arc
one Of tho fancies of the season. The ma
tcrial is accordion plated, and pillows and
yards of it are used for each cape, which
is pointed front and back, short over tho
sleeves. 1t is sometimes finished with very
long scarf ends.-New York Post.

Minneapolis Lumberman: The

foreign trade of the Uuited States.
In the total value Of expectations

any previous year, AVID for the first
time in the history of the country
the exports were twice as great as
the imports, and the exports Of
manufactures exceeded the imports

,portations Of the year was twenty
per cent in excess of that Of tho
graf CONNIE c,al year of 1892, and
$50, 10000 greater than the
! greatest previous year Of our ex.

Minneapolis Lumberman: From
all the numbering districts Of the
north comes the word that labor ia
scarce. Over in the Wisconsin, valley
a number of the mills have been
handicapped BY the shortage Of Ia
Dor, and Ia the woods the firms who
are doing summer logging are ALEC
short of men. One day last week
the Howe Lumber company, ol
Tower, Mimi. had t" shut down
their mill while their mill hands were
taken to Two Harbors to assist in
loading boats with lumber. The
harvest field and the war have
drawn off a large part Of the surplus
population. and there now appears
to be work for everyone who wants
to work.

Pioneer Pr. IS: On All estimat.
ed population at Is, $4,000, the
per capita circulation of the coun.
try was $24.74 July l, 1893,
against $22.57 in July. 1897.
This IS high water mark. The
virtues Of per capita circu'
lation are somewhat overrated, as
the rapidity of circulation has
quite as much to do with tine
matter as its volume and the vol.
ume of credits is nine times more
important than either. But,
nevertheless, wasn't it the
Bryanites who used to go up and
down the land telling how the
per capita had contracted and was
bound to contract under the gold
standard? Events have added ono
more to the stock of exploded
fallacies-that's all.
