a veteran of the white apron the other
day, II will tell you relatively where
his saloon is located and what kind Of
trade it enjoys. The average for busi-
ness in the commercial and office CEN
ter is from 60 to IS. If it is patronized
to any extent by the upper working
classes, skilled mechanics and so on,
the percentage runs down to so. fel-
low who wasn't posted might suppose
that indicated workingmen were heavy
drinkers, but it's just the reverse. The
average upper class mechanic drinks
very seldom, but when he does he gen.
orally takes a good one The heavy
tipplers are the chaps who take small
drinks and lots of them, and a house
that has very swell custom will get
from 80 to S5 out of a gallon. In the
tough places and dives 40 would be
about the figure, which represents an
average of exactly four-fifth of gill
to each customer. In such establish
ments the glasses are often very thick
and the inside is round on the bottom.
They are deceptive and even If filled to
the brim will not hold over one-half Of
a gill; which would make Ga drinks to
the gallon. At only 5 cents apiece that
would mean $500, and as the stuff they
serve does not cost more than 81 the
profit is shade over 200 per cent, If
a scent house set out thin glasses with
the black bottle it would be bankrupt
in less than week"

meeting in the center of the back. This
back was very original. 1t was of plain
rose taffeta, pleated in V form, con-
tinuing to the bottom of the tunic. The
sleeves were of the embroidered OPEN
work. The tunic closed at the side
the closing covered by a long drapery
of black tulle, terminating in a scarf
like drapery which fell nearly to the
bottom of the dress. This drapery was
set with tulle rosettes at intervals.
The underskirt had three flounces of
rose mousseline de sole, bordered with
ruches of the same. The hat worn with
this gown was of straw, trimmed with
roses, shade upon shade. On the right
side, where the brim was lifted more
roses, pale yellow and blackish-red,
were crowded in. This shape. with it's
high. narrow crown, is one of the actu-
al models of the coming winter. AS |
have already told you, our hats are
to be large
Here is another Casino gown, also
rose -colored. 1t is a just imported
model. The princess corSage and tunic
is composed of pastel rose crepon de
sole slashed with folds of cream NOUS
seline de sole which terminate in ros-
cites and black silk fringed ends. The
under robe of cream taffetas opens
slightly in front, appearing to fasten
with small crystal buttons and white
silk cord: ecru guipure is applique
round the base and borders the tu-
nique, while from a slight decolletage
and an outstanding ecru collar a cream
mousseline de sole fichu ornaments the
corsage.
Speaking of buttons reminds me that
they seem to be going out of fashion,
except for ornaments and for under
garments. The ornamental ones are
however, improving in beauty. Some
very beautifully painted mother-of-
pearl and ivory buttons come to US
from Germany, and both Malta and
Norway are contributing rich store of

BLACK SNAKE VERSUS RATHER.
Terrific Combat Witnessed by Travellers
in the Australian Bush.

1t was in Australia and in the tall
Of the year. My friend and | We're re-
turning from a tour which had carried
us far into the brush, as the forests Of
gum trees and scrub are there called.
We were walking through a clearing,
when the unmistakable rattle of
snake arrested US and in few minutes
we saw the beginning of a fierce en-
counter between two deadly enemies
a black snake and a rattle. These two
branches of the snake family are hered-
itary and implaCable foes. The black
snake is much smaller than the rattle,
but he is terribly formidable foe, and,
as science is superior to mere size or
strength, he generally comes out of the
fray victorious. He gives himself no
rest until he gains a point of vantage
from which he can make a sudden
swoop upon the noisy foe. On this oc-
casion we did not see the black snake
until he leaped on the rattle's throat,
nor could we afterward make out how
he had got so near without being seen.
That power of silent. stealthy, rapid
movement gives the black fellow an
immense advantage over the rafting
enemy. 1t is that, indeed, on which
his hope of victory mainly depends.

Where Hard Drinking Prevails.

How can the elegant bars of the city
afford to place before their patrons a
better grade of liquor while charging
the same price as the saloons in the
poorer districts? is question frequent
ly asked. The answer is simple enough.
In the former drinkers never take a
BATH as the saying is, but merely
cover the bottoms of their glasses with
liquor, while in the latter the glasses
are none too large to contain the
amount the patrons require. IF you
can tell me how many drinks a bar
gets out of a gallon of whiskey," said

Written for the Sunday Standard.


1 have written at the head of this
article new colorings." 1t would, per-
haps, be more truthful to speak of new
tones of color. Paris has for the mo-
ment affected blue that has the ap-
pearance of being washed out and very
cool-looking, as though it had a gray
tinge. This color has been adopted by
our fashionable women at Newport.
Nara gansett Pier and like places, for
gowns now come from Paris and are
worn in less than two weeks time. This
blue is very pretty in cotton and other
washing dresses trimmed with lace and
chiffon. Guipure looks well on this
shade of silk, with chiffon ruchings
placed just at the hem, where all the
trimmings seem just now concentrat-
ed, the rest sheathlike.
Pastel rose is another new tone, so
soft and shady that it does not offend
when worn in the day time. In the
evening it is very beautiful.
Taffeta is to have tremendous vogue
in the near future, not the vulgar, plain
taffeta so long worn under our trans
parent muslins and our fine veilings.
or as Innings to our tailor made gowns.
This taffeta is embroidered also open
worked, or decorated with anabesques
of lace in an infinite variety of designs.
A society leader at Newport wore one
of these gowns at the Newport Casino
this week and the admiration it ex-
cited was surprise. perhaps even to
the fair wearer herself. 1t was in rose
leaf taffeta, forming a long closely-fit-
ting redingote; open work lace inser-
ton in graceful arabasques following
its entire length, with the richest eff
feet. The lower edge of this redingote
or tunic was cut into large scallops and
edged with a narrow ruche of rose
mousseline de sole. Around the shoul-
ders, forming collar and yoke gui-
pure, drapery of rose-ColOred gauZe
formed a bertha around the shoulders,
