Mrs. Georg Liebling, is one OF the
brightest writer's of the day, contrib
uting to French and German papers
notably Das Kleine Journal, in Berlin
and La Fronde in Paris. She is also
well known in the fatherland as tai

Liebling is a Berliner, belonging to the
famous Goldberger family-highly es-
teemed at court and in society-Lud-
wig MaxGoldberger being privy coun-
cilor. Here Nine Lieblng has shared
all the royal favors showered upon her
husband, the well-known pianist ana
composer; and, when she was presented
to Queen Victoria at Osborne, she was
twice honored with long conversations;
and one of her most precious posses
sions is an autograph fan of curious
and beautiful make, upon which there
are only inscribed royal signatures. But
she and her husband are delighted with
London life, social and professional,
and they will live chiefly there in the
future, for she is "a popular and clever
hostess, brilliant conversationalist, and
one who fully appreciates the value of
being well dressed"

RIBBONS PROMINENT.
Fall Millinery to Be Decked Out in
Bright CoIors.

1t IS by no means an un.mportant fea-
ture of the latest creations that the
trimming often includes ribbons. There
is every probability that these are about
to take signal revenge for the neglect
in which they have been held through
out more than two seasons. The ribbon
manufacturers are chiefly responsible
for this reaction. Their new productions,
brought out for late summer and aut-
uEln, ere in all ways admirable, and de-
serve patronage. In the first rank stand
the warp printed Powered ribbons,
mostly shown in Pompadour and other
delicate combinations of color on white
or very light grounds, and edged with
plain bands or elge fringed Others, also
with light grounds, and printed in the
same way, with bouquets of field flow
ers and wheat ears, fruits, flowers or
foliage are interviewer with lines of
black scoring the design lengthwise.
Plain ribbons are sometimes divided
into bands of two colors or shades, with
! a frings on one or both edges. Those
with narrow bands of openwork are in
much request. They are made in rib
bons of different teXtures-pongees
foulard taffetas merveilleux-aud are
self colored. In the lighter textures they
have more the appearance of bands Of
material with fancy hemstitched Dor
ders than ribbons.
A capeline exhibited is trimmed with
this sort of ribbon, which forms bow
in front of the crown and is then pass
ed through the straw over the ears and
tied under the chin. Black ribbon vel
vet is used for the trimming quilting
that surrounds the edges of the crown
and brim This is in much request in
all widths, while other ribbons, plain
and figured, are only shown in medi-
UNI wide and wide widths. AS in the
case of feathers, now and again the
brush comes into play, and plain or
shaded ribbons are touched up with body
color. Milliners also (this work is gem
orally accomplished by them) sketch
out simple outline patterns on the rib
bon and then stitch down loulou straw
braids upon 1t. A special sort of
pencil is provided for the
purpose. These complicated prac-
| tees, however. are seldom
worth the time and trouble devot-
ed to them, which of course. must be
reckoned at in the price of the hat.
After all, a handsome figured ribbon
usually gives far more satisfaction

nestled on green plates in the midst of

Then there were delicious crab pates

The oHAPERoN,s WING.
When 1t Should Shelter socety's FIedg
lngs.

Great as is the independence enjoyed
by young girls at the present Gay, there
are yet times and seasons when chap
eronage is indispensable, from a society
point of view, and of real advantage
to girls so chaperoned. There are diff
ferent kinds of chaperonage-ch
age that is in reality only companion
ship and chaperonage that is a support
and safeguard, says an exchange. The
one is afforded by young girls of an APP
proximate age, by elder unmarried sis
tiers, or by younger brothers; the other
IS chaperonage in the true sense of the
word, and is that of mother, father
or other relative, elder brother, mar
ried sister or the authoritative super
vision of an aunt.
1t would seem that out of doors girls
can get on very well without much
chaperonage beyond what they accord
to each other by companionship and
that outdoor exercise requires very lit
tie further; but when it comes to at
tending large gatherings, of whatever
order they may be, a chaperon is nee
essary, as gaining countenance, sup
port and protection, and is some one to
arrive with, to leave with, and whose
~ SoSllCe Is " ne GOuHleu- upon DIT dlly
moment of the afternoon. This as
equally applies to fashionable public
gatherings of the season as to large
and smart private ones. In the coun-
try, however, a family party of girls
can go to large country garden parties
without being chaperoned by anyone
older than themselves, only that their
relatives for their own pleasure usually
do accompany them.
AS regards indoor gatherings, again
the need of chaperonage is decided by
the nature of the function. Two sis
tiers can chaperon each other to a small
afternoon at home or to a small dinner
party to which girls are invited without
their mothers, or to dance given for
girls to which chaperones are not in
vited; but to the larger at homes, smart
dinner parties and large balls chaper-
onage of some kind is considered imper-
alive other than that of a hostess.

BLAIR, THE REGULAR.

Can incident of the battle of San Juan,
July l, 1882
Blair the regular, wounded, lay
On the slope of San Juan hill;
Near by were two of the volunteers,
Bleeding and faint and still;
And further up in palm tree hid,
A Spaniard with deadly gun
Took cruel aim at the men below,
Dropping them one by one.
One volunteer with feeble hand
Fought with the plaguing flies;
1t told the fact of lingering life
To the Spaniard's watchful eyes
He raised his gun to his shoulder then
And a bullet sang affair;
1t hit the hat of the wounded man,
Who lay on the left of Blair.
Another! The boy on the right hand WINGED
and uttered a moan of pain;
Another! Blair looked at his Redeemed
And muttered: I'm hit again;
But there's one moreload in my old gun
His brow grew black with frown-
And VOW I'll shoot the Spanish brute
Who fires on men that are down"
Weak were his hands as he raised his gun,
But steady his eye and aim;
Soon round the trunk of the shielding
palm.
The head of the Spaniard came;
Then up from the slope the Spaniard spoke
And answered the Mauser well;
And the Spaniard shrieked and fell.
The volunteer who lay on the left
Moaned Water again and again.
Said Blair: by making double-quick
may capture full canteen."
So, firmly shutting his whitening lips,
He crept where the Spaniard lay,
Secured the prize and crawled slowly
back
All, painful and long seemed the way.
you first, " said both of the volunteers,
As he held out the full cahteen
They saw his blood-stained blouse and
they knew
Right well what Its cost had been;
Blair could but whisper to answer them,
One hand on his bleeding side,
You fellows have homes somewhere"
said he,
I'm a regular" Then he died.
Sidneyof England, make room! Make room
In the niche of courtly fame,
While side by side with thine own we write
Another nobleman's name

Since thy deaths heroic day,
Thy name and the fame of thy gallant deed
Are homed in our hearts for aye.

CAT WITH FALSE TEETH.
Pennsylvania Feline Provided With a
Set of Artificial Moars.

A cat that belongs to James Dever,
>Norristown, can boast of something
that probably no other feline is pos
sessed of-a set of false teeth. Two
weeks ago puss showed evidence of
being in great agony. She would roll
about the floor and m-e-o-w in a most
pitiful manner. Mr.. Dever thinks the
world of the cat, and he was much dis
tressed because he could not relieve its
sifferings. He took his pet to three DE-
fsrent surgeons, but they could not
diagnose the ailment. Finally, Mr..
DSver concluded that the trouble was
with the cats teeth, 50 he took the ami
NAL to dentist of this city, who found
that toothache was causing the misery
that fell to Kitty's lot. The dentist de-
clared that every tooth in the cats
head would have to be extracted, and
when Mr.. Deyer demurred, the teeth
manipulation said he would guarantee to
turn the pet out as good as new with a
false set. Realizing that to relieve the
cats sufferings heroic measures would
have to be resorted to, Mr. Dever
agreed to have her fitted out with an
entire outfit of new worries. The job was
not an easy one, but few days ago the
cat was returned to its owner with a
mouthful of store teeth. The animal cx-
periences some difficulty In eating, and
its meat has to be cut fine. Every night
pussy runs to her master to have her
teeth removed before retiring.-Phila-
