black gauze, gathered in horizontal puffs
A narrow jet passementerie bordered the
edge of the vest. An enormous gauze but
lerfiy was appliqued to the front of the
eorsage in such way that the lower part
| of the wings came over the skirt. The
collar was of the carrot satin covered with
the pulled black gauze. Two wired gauze
butterflies topped the close-fitung sleeves
A new combination of color that is
growing more popular every day is rather
Itdaring. Nobody would think of mixing
the old-fashioned deep purple violets with
the much favored parma violets in bou-
quet. Yet the conturieres combine these
self-same colors with the greatest success
in their newest gowns.
Especially is the combination happy
when the material is of shimmery parma
poplin and the purple of some dun mate
rial.
A giriish gown that boosted this COM
bination was fashioned for a visiting toll
cite. The close-fitting skirt touched the
floor all around and was considera bly, long
er at the back II was trimmed around
with two broad bias folds of the poplin
that ended in points at the edge of the mar
row apron. They were outlined in mar
row deep violet ribbon that was put on
very full. Frogs of violet velvet and braid
Joined the folds at the front
The corsage of the parma poplin was
close-dtting, with short rounded basques
u was made with a long square yoke OF
White satin at the front that was covered
with deep violet soutache in an irregular
swlriing pattern. The poplin bordering
on the yoke was cut in three round seal
Tops that were faced with violet velvet
| and bordered with the soutache that was
carried down the front of the corsage IN
! double-breasted fashion Four of the
deep violet frogs trimmed the front OF
the corsage.
THE sleeves of the poplin were close-ft-
ting and were mounted by puffs of the
white satin that were embroidered with
violet soutache. The narrow ceinture was
of violet velvet. number of the popIin
gowns l noticed had circular founces on
The skirts that varied from twelve inches
to thirty inches in breadth.

Yellow JournnIism in rrnnce.

FROM the New Orleans Picayune.
A correspondent of the New York Even
ing Post sends the following translation
from a recently published article in the
Paris Figaro. The article out-yellows the
yellowest of the jaundiced journals:
When the Spanish cruiser Vizcaya weigh
al anchor and was about to leave the port
Of New York, her departure was saluted
by a formidable Kissing and jeering on
the part of the thousands OF Yankees
united on the wharf The commander of
the cruiser Mr.. Eulate, heard the ovation
and had the ship stop Immediately. He
ordered his canot 70 be put upon the
water, and said TO the second officer of
the cruiser: II leave the command to you.
! am going alone on shore. If Jou near
pistol shot, lombard New York" He
jumped into the canot and was landed
on the wharf in the middle of the hos
tile crowd. Addressing himself TO a
group of men, he shouted: THE first enc
who Kisses will have his brains blown
out by mel" No one ventured to hiss
and during twenty minutes Mr.. Eulate
walked up and down upon the wharf in
front of the silent crowd. When ne re-
gained his ship and the Vizcaya steamed
away not a single hiss was heard. This
anecdote is authentic.

1t is problem that is giving publishers
of books and of periodicals not a little anx-
iety, what effect the war is likely TO have
on their business. On books of the less
necessary kind-books that require a par-
ticularlE good humor on the part OF the
public in order to get sold-the first effect
can scarcely help but be disastrous. And
the same is true of the more luxurious
journals. But books and journals accord
ant with the war sentiment and interest

a distinct boom" Journals which depend
for their profits almost solely on the adj
vertising patronage they enjoy are the ones
that least know where they are at; for
who can forecast what advertisers will do

with the sprays Of mignonette. II that
was the result of a few kind words,
she said to herself that she would
often say them. Sir Raoul saw her
smiling and blushing, with a glad light
in her eyes.
WELL" he said, "what success, Hill
dred?"
1.-THE best in the world" she replied;
and her pleasure was increased at
dinner time when she saw that Lord
Caraven wore some of the mignonette
in his buttonhole.
Lord Caraven was fond of music; he
had rich, ringing tenor voice which,
as rule, he was too indolent to use.
He would troll out a verse of love
ditty, or the chorus of drinking-song
in a fashion that made one long to
hear the rest. In the evening Sir
Raoul asked him to sing.
"It is too much trouble" said the
handsome earl. "Why should I exert
myself to sing when other people can
do 1t so much better for me!"
"That is an idle excuse" returned
Sir Raoul. Lady Caraven, persuade
your husband to sing; he has a voice
almost as rich and clear as Mario's,
but he will never use it,"
She came over to him. He looked at
his beautiful young wife in all the
simmer of satin and CLEAN of pearls;
he gazed earnestly into the beautiful
face.
"Do sing. Lord Caraven," she said.
