At the top 1t is laid in four folds, these
extending around the hips to a depth
Of about eight inches, and in the back
each is caught under silk button, and
the surplus stuff then falls backward

There are some such dainty new
stuffs for pretty house wear and not at
all costly. There is new silk crepon
with delicate groundwork, with flow

This on the crinkled stuff gives a
vague and beautiful effect. There are
some lovely challies, and nothing
makes so pretty house dress as chal-
lie, whether 1t is arranged for morning
or n tea gown. Many Indies wear n
tea gown until its freshness begins to
fade and then call 1t morning dress.
There are numbers of new designs of
flowers printed upon cotton crepons

beautiful of all the new samples of
goods destined to make dinner, dane

There are only samples here yet, but

Mccarthy:
"It was at the entrance of faro

NEw YoRE. Dec. 25.-After all wo-
man should manage TO look her best
In her own home-that is, on most oc-
caslons. Too many women are careless
Of their appearance when there is no
body but 'the family" there. never
could quite understand why n girl who
would spend hours fixing herself 10
look as pretty as n lily before her mar
tlage would change so soon after she
was married. Aud the change Il not
gradual either, though perhaps the
public does not see 1t so soon as "the
family" Certainly household duties
do exact much OF the time former
ly given to her dress, but there are
so many pretty house dresses now
that 1t is almost sin not to wear
them, and they are so cheap too.
There are such dainty morning
frocks and such sensible and useful
ones at the same time that II seems
as though every woman ought TO know
about them. One was of dark madder
red cashmere with indefinite white
blotches here and there. There was
Hubbard yoke with high collar,
edged with frill of white lace. The
sleeves were wrinkltd coat shape.
From the yoke the whole of the skirt
hung. Across the back was a sort of
figaro OF the dress stuff. and this reach
ed out across the bust and was gather
ed into close space and was finished
with knot of black MORE ribbon with
long ends. The bringing Of the fronts
of the figaro into the close plalts under
the bow gathered 1t into form over the
bust, showing the straight gathers
above and below. With so very little
work a very novel and pretty effect
was achieved.
Another extremely effective home
dress for n young married lady was
made Of striped surah. which, with Its
companion silk. foulard. is coming
rapidly into fashion again. The front
breadth was cut on the straight and
the rest bias. Down the front breadth
to the knees there were set rows OF
smoke pearl buttons. forgot to say
that the groundwork of the silk was
burnt rose in color and the stripes very
dark green. almost black. The bodice
was In the form of round basque
cut on the bias. with the plastron vest
front made on the straight. Down
each edge of this vest front were sewed
IL buttons. The bottom of the basque
was cut In scallops and bound with
green velvet to match the stripes. The
sleeves were on the bias, but plain,
and the high collar was bound with
velvet
A very handsome, though really sim
pie, home gown was made of slate gray
cashmere and trimmed by scallops Of
bias green velvet of that one shade
and the only one to go with slate. 1t was
the deep purplish hunters green. At
the upper edge of this was a narrow
line of picot loops in soutache. The
pointed waist had simulated figaro
and was further ornamented with vel
vet and picot loops.

was staring at the desolate coast be-
fore him. turning now and again to
shout directions to Lars, who was at
the helm.
The yacht took a devious, not to say
intricate, course, bespeaklng reef
strewn channel AS the shore grew
palmer before them they saw the point
Of their desire.
Deeply cleft In the rocky foreshore
lay little bay, ringed with rocks that
ran out In circllng breakwaters on
either side. Within these was n still
pool, tapping lazily sandy beach.
There seemed bare entrance room for
n vessel Of the yachts tonnage, and ms
they approached the colonel's shouts
were frequent. Finally, at his request,
a boat was dropped astern and, with n
crew of six, lay with the oars at the
ready. The yacht seemed to be charg-
ing straight upon the rocks. Only the
jlb was set, and as rocks began to
show vislbly beneath her keel even
this was dropped. Her way still urged
her on. and all on board drew their
breath.
Then, at sharp scream from Lars,
the wheel whirred round, and the row.
ers astern bent furiously to their oars,
hauling ut the rope which was passed
from them TO the ships stern. With
swiftness incredible the yacht turned,
slowed and slipping between the reefs,
shot into the still pool, and the anchor
went In four fathoms. 1t was n fine
display of steersmanship. There was
barely room in the little bay to hold her.
Her bow nosed within 20 feet Of the
shore and her stern Of the circling
ring of rocks.
With the rattle of the chain the sun
died down into the sea, and darkness
gathered. No lights We're lit save In the
saloon, and here the ports were closed.
Never sound disturbed the stiffness.
All spoke in whispers. When darkness
closed in, not soul would have been
able to discern the presence of the ship.
Down In the saloon Il hasty meal
was snatched. Plans were made In
low voiced tones, aud one of the cases
of rifles was opened and the contents
distributed. Pistols were served out
to all who were of the landing party.
This consisted of Colonel Preobeslas,
Desmond, Pladja and six seamen. Be-
sides their rifles, they took spades and
mattocks. Barr was to remain in
charge with Mr. Jones. Hiimar, in

demned to stay aboard also, and was

"But, father, dearest, can use u

Hear her!' said the colonel turning
to the others. with look of comical
despair. WAS there ever such ter

to one of quiet command: Seriously,
