That wistful Europe's dreams sublime
Might not seem all in vain:
Hope. reawakenng at thy birth,
Thrilled the droopt songstsrs OF the earth
To brief ecstatic joy. Erelong in thee
Shall they behold the pledge OF one Humanity !?
The nations, ay. the nations wait

To thee knit thy thews and rise.

From Paris comes the news that we are
to return to the styles of the eighteenth
century DANES of high degree. Lapel coats
and long waistcoats, neckbands, delicate
lace ruftles for neck and sleeves, stiff bro
cades and even patches and powder, and
three-cornered hats are prophesied, and
ladies with legacies and old jewels are I'M
earthng quaint little clasps, such as our
Observation-Disclosures wore on a narrow
piece of velvet across their foreheads;
scarf pins with chains and seals. and tiny
miniatures set in pearls or diamonds. These
are to be worn on the jabots or in black
moire ribbon, which fashion ordains is to
be worn tied round the neck or under the
chin.
Old boxes and jewel cases are being ran
| sacked. bringing to light long-forgotten
treasures. For instance, heavy, gold-jointed
bracelets are turned into clasps for opera
and travelling cloaks, and very handsome
they look against soft chiffon or furS.
Lockets are allowed to dangle at the end Of
gold chains. and slender diamond neck
laces, like those worn years and years ago,
are much In vogue More and moro Jewelry
is worm Certain luxurious dames ~fasten
their robes de mutt with jeweled buttons.
and jeweled safety pins take the place Of
buttons or hooks on peignoirs and odd
waists.
One of the latest novelties is a sort of
velvet lace, which is extremely rich in it's
effect, and is used for the interior OF a
bodice, an underskirt. etc. 1t is in velvet
just what is made in lawn and in Irish
lace, a marvellous work, with openwork
points of silk, and frightened with gold
and silver thread. Attempts in this style
have been previously made, but had been
abandoned because of the inferior work
and materials employed. To-day the finest
quality of velvet is used and the work exc
cuted with marvellous skill, thus producing
a remarkably fine effect.

The Social Engineer.
New York Evening Sun.

New York Evening Sun.
A new profession is that, of the social
engineer" 1t deals with social conditions,
and it tries to better them. 1t also tries to
better industrial conditions. it being impos-
sible to touch uponDthe one without az
fecting the other.
I'm some respects" says a writer upon
the subject, 1.-The work of the social engi-
neer is allied to that of the sanitary engi-
neer. but only incidentally. The social engi-
neer must be a practical expert as well as
a scientific and theoretical exponent. 1T is
his business to assist the organic, industri-
al community TO improve its material, in
tellectull and moral conditions, by the
adoption of means analogous in some re-
spects to the means that the sanitary engi-
Deer would employ TO improve the health
conditions of q town."
1T is becoming necessary In every bust
ness" says another writer ito employ a
social engineer for living forces. just as the
engineer for machinery keeps material
forces in the best condition"
Yet another declares that the need of
these engineers is being felt in many in
dustries; there is already a demand for
men and women who will take charge of
the material end moral welfare of the en-
ployes of a bu sineSS. at would be a good
idea to establish bureaus or schools, where
young men and young women may be edu-
Gated as social engineers, ana in thor
oughly business-like way. Many employers
have the good will, but they lack talent
for ORGANIZATIONS: in such cases the bureau
would supply the want. There should also
be a central bureau. having staff of social
engineers which could serve small business
houses unable to support such superin-
tendent entirely by themselves"
In America number of industrial estab-
lishments make use of the social engineer;
he is also to be found in England, Germany
and Holland. There is something incongru-
Gus in finding him i'm charge of firm en-
gagged in manufacturing the deadliest
weapons yet invented for warfare.

In the New York Theaters.

New York Times.
There seem to be more and more elabo-
rate gowns at the theater. and at popular
play the frocks worn by the greater number
of women in the audience have quite as fes-
tive an appearance as those of the women
in the parquet of the Opera House. This
may be partially due to the disappearance
of the hat Woman in ordinary street
gown without her hat looks almost out OF
place, but in a pretty evening frock she
looks well. Then small ribbon bow, with
perhaps q simple aigrette. is so much less
expensive than a bonnet that an economi-
cal woman could afford to put more money
into her theater gown. Pale blue silks with
Jokes and sleeves of white lace are to be
seen. many gowns of cloth in the delicate
pastel blues and p'nks made deliberately
with fine lace, and all sorts and kinds of
capes go over them, from the lightest of
opera wraps to long fur-lined garments.
The long, loose coats of dark cloth, hand
somely lined. are among the most effective
garments worn. Some of the capes are so
light that even in this wynn weather the
girls inside them must be healthy and
warm-blooded not TO feel chilled with their
thin gowns.
One pretty girl I'm pink cloth gown of a
warm salmon shade the other night had
the bodice trimmed with handsome lace
and wore in her hair bow of pink velvet
the color of the gown, with a cluster of
cherries. A woman in black and sequins
wore a serpent in back and steel twisted
around the top of her head. the head of the
serpent raised and supporting an aigrette.

principle will make the coffee perfectly, If
used with one or two of my inventions.
They are not patented. The most essential
part of the whole proceeding is the fineness
OF the coffee. Any grocer will give you
battle-ground coffee, but that is MOI
enough; you must ask for and insist upon
pulverized coffee. 1t can be had, ana your
grocer will get 1t for you If you bring pres
sure enough to bear. Unless the coffee
pulverized the choice flavor cannot be ex-
tracted by the drip process. But with the
coffee so fine new difficulty presents it
self. Through many of the drip coffee pots
the fine dust will pass, making the liquid
cloudy. This may be remedied in one or
two ways. One way, and good one, is to
put layer of absorbent cotton in the per-
forated vessel with the raw coffee. Other
cotton contains little grease that gets
into the coffee liquid unpleasantly. Better.
however than the cotton pad is piece of
ordinary blotting paper. circle is cut to
fit just above the perforation, the coffee
placed on it, and the boiling water poured
over. When this process of percolating is
gone through with, clear, delicious, and
