hardly be becoming worn by fat or short-waisted woman, they are charm ing additions to the costume of a tall or slender one.
 A sash of plaid ribbon in which red and white predominate is edged with a zig-zag insertion of black lace and ruffled with black chiffon.
 Another is of bright canary-tinted taffeta, having ruffies of lace applied at intervals of about two inches from the belt to the ends. The ruff1es are put on in curves and the ends are also curved. The sash is attached to a girdle of softly folded silk, which has a spray of small bows resembling leaves mounting from the waist to the right shoulder.
 A most effective sash is of black satin ribbon, cut into. small. bias stripes, with lace insertion. The girdle is pointed at the sides and caught down in front by a steel buckle.
 Despite all that has been said to the contrary, the hair is as much waved as ever, the only difference being that that the large wave is no longer consid- cred good form, a smaller and much heater one having taken it's place There is some talk of reviving the Greek knot of some years back, and given a well-shaped head, few styles are so becoming.

GOOD THINGS THAT
WOr1EN ARE DOING.

The first two women to cross the Rocky Mountains at South Pass were Mrs. Marcus Whitman, wife of Dr. Whitman, the famous Oregon pioneer, and Mrs. H. H. Spaulding, wife of the Rev. H. H. Spaulding. After their marriage in Angelica, N. Y, in 1886, the quartet started immediately for the West. They made the journey of $500 miles in seven months. crossing the pass six years in advance of Gen eral Fremont.
 Mrs Phebe Hearst gave $250 to pro- vide a Christmas dinner for the in- mates of the San Francisco County Hospital.
 Mrs. J. A. Hayes, one of the daugh- ters of Jefferson Davis, lives at Colo rado Springs. She has two sons, the eldest of whom by an act of the Legis- lature is to bear the name of Jefferson Hayes Davis.
 Miss Lulie A. Little, a negress, 23 years of age, has been admitted to the Memphis bar. Miss Little is a gradu- ate of the Central College of Nash vile, and intends to practice law in Kansas.
 Miss Platt, also a colored woman, is

a successful lawyer in Chicago. She speaks French and German f1uently and is much patroniZed by foreigners, though her practice is confined almost exclusively to the office.
 These two are said to be the only women of their race in America who are entitled to call themselves full f1edged lawyers.
 Mrs. M. $. Fitts of Lynn, Mass, has fulfilled all the requirements for the position of United States pension claim attorney and has been appoint ed to that position by the Secretary of. the Interior. She is. the only woman in New England appointed to that posi- tion.

 of Aosta. This garment is a . long, sleeveless mantle, which com .Pletely covers the dress worn with it. The ground is embroidered all over with large flowers in relief worked in green and black spangles mixed. Over the shoulders is yoke in irregular in dentations and also embroidered with spangles. The indentations are edged with tulle ruches and green mousseline de sOie to match the spangles. The yoke : is extended at the neck into a high :. Aiedicis collar, and beneath it are two :1lounces, one over the other of green .mopsseline de soie, edged with ruches : of the same material. These flounces .qte yelled by a wide nounce of English lace Of yellOwish shade. Round the ;: collar and down the front to the ground : is a broad boa of curled ostrich feath- .. CTS. The large collar over the shoulder is pointed behind and at the sides, and the points are trimmed with spangles and edged with ruches of mousseline de soie The cloak is lined throughout with white satin.
 I notice that some dressmakers are beginning to make certain evening : 1nantles like shawls in the old style, the point being below the waist and :, the arms enveloped with long ends. This style is adopted with all sorts of materials, as well as in fur: For even ing wear Chantilly lace lined with white satin and a large collar are used. Another style for dressy costumes is the pointed mantelet, in embroidered velvet, the point of which is sixteen ;: inches below the waist behind, and the point in front almost down to the knees. This garment is made with a square yoke.
 Another evening garment is a large mantle of ridged heur de velours, mas turtium colored. The upper part is ornamented with a cape of English application lace, mixed with large bouillonnes of nasturtium colored .mousseline de soie.
 A very taking style is the large man. tie Of broadtail, fastening down the side and slightly blouse shaped, con- fined at the waist by a Byzantine buckle and with lapels attached oyer the shoulder.
 Mme Henri Vion, No. r Boulevard de la Madeleine, is the inventor of sev- eraI systems of hygienic stays. One o1 them, called corset -digestion-respi tion," is ingeniously contrived. But a: only notice stylish products, I will de scribe a model that was shown m, there. It is a corset of yellow silk ctripad with bIack and with eyarTapds ds of printed flowers all down at equal dis tances. It is quite tight at the hips and is ornamented around the top witt a ruche of English lace in front, ant with a strip of the same lace laid or flat round the bottom. The petticoat i. also very tight, begins somewhat below the waist and is taken in to make it ii tight. It is trimmed round the bottom

clusters of dahlias. Another novelty in toques is composed entirely of par rot's plumage, and wings in this fash ion and exquisite shade of green.
 Wide bracelets and necklaces that clasp close around the throat, after the fashion of the Duchess of Marl- borough's famous pearls, are really in fashion, as long predicted they would be. But all not being as fortunate as the Duchess in possessing the real ar ticle, strings of imitation pearls fastened with silver clasps are worn about the neck and wrists with even ing gowns. But pearls are trying to the complexion. Gold necklaces and bracelets are more becoming, hence are bound to be most in vogue.
 The violet is the flower of the day. Even the rose must stand aside in it's favor. The bigger the bunch the bet ter-so far as fashion is concerned, but not for the pocket book. As the season advances so does the oopG- larity and the price of the violet.
 Bigger and bigger grow the Victor ian bonnets, but only the very young and slender girls take to them. This is wise. The Victorian bonnet is only at it's best when screening very fair fresh face about which little natural bob curls may cluster. At a recent wedding the maids wore Victorian bonnets. One was of gray beaver, against which was laid plumes of pale blue, cream. lace, pink poppies anI white satin ribbon.
 Primrose and pale-cameo pink crepe de chine is being shown among the new things for debutantes' and brides maids frocks. Trimmed with pearl | and opal beaded passementeries, this | is like the robe of a fairy princess. ! It may also be made very effective | in combination with brocaded fab rics in delicate tints. Its most charm ing effect is when combined with peau | de sole with draperies of silk net ot l the same tint and bodice garnitures of sprays of roses and cascades oi | Venetian lace.
 Many of the long Bernhardt sleeves of gauge, turned out by the best mo- distes, have, I notice, invisible lin ings of soft net. This gives more body to the sleeve, and if the arm is de- fective in roundness it is improved by the addition of the net. In trans parent bodices built over the low sill Things fashion makes the same pro- vision, the net under the shirring ol tucking holding the airy material nice ly in place and at the same time pre- serving its transparency. One of th' prevailing fashions in full dress is tn, wearing of very long wrinkled sleeves with low cut or half-low bodices.
 There is already a hint in the shop' of what will be worn as the sprinl season comes on in tailor-made gowns Oxford suitings in tri-color melanges boucle effects in French camel's hair India cashmere, genuine Scotcl cheviots, English serges and diago nals. and creped cloth in dark anC medium light colors, and in spring weight, are among the newest thing. the shops are showing.
 There are uncounted novelties fl sashes, and, although gay colors would
