velvet put on as though to outline a
bolero jacket; over the shoulders are
ruflles of the cloth--double ruflles, ono
shorter than the other-and the sleeves
are close-fitting. On the waist are also
round gold buttons, and at the throat
is a soft tie of wine-colored silk. This
gown has much the princesse effect,
but is made with separate skirt and
waist.
Gray cloth gowns are very fashion
able, sometimes made only with the
gray, and in other cases relieved by
the trimming of some contrasting
color. A very graceful gown, cut i'll
princesse style, is of the lightest shade
of gray, trimmed with bands down the
front of white cloth on which are
smaller bands of deep blue velvet.
The way in which these bands are put
on is quite different from anything that
has as yet been worn. The front of
the gown is perfectly plain, at the
throat is a large bow of blue velvet,
and the sleeves are finished at the wrist
with two bands of the velvet, blue and
white. The hat worn with this is a
pale grur velvet trimmed with rosettes
of velvet, two gray ostrich tips, and
exaggeratedly large Jet pins stuck
through the velvet rosettes. The mufl
with this gown is of gray chinchilla.

The advantages of ancestry and

A Dog stops IA Runnwav,

A butcher boy in Chicago, four
years ago, taught Great Dane pup
to sit on the seat of the delivery
wagon, hold the reins in his mouth
and pull back on them if the horse
started while the boy was away.
1t was a pretty trick, and has
been the pride of the butcher boy
even after he got shop of his own
and had other boys to deliver for him.
A few days ago, as the Great Dane
was trotting beside the wagon, the
horse SHE'D so violently as to throw
the driver from his seat. The horse
then ran away mp the street, the reins
dragging on the ground. The dog
was puzzled for ten seconds. He
looked at the boy scrambling to his
feet, half dazed. He looked at the
runaway horse tearing down the street.
He looked at the dangling lines and
he decided something was to be done.
Sprinting after the runaway he caught
him in a block, seized the r ins, which
were luckily buckled, in his teeth, and
settled back, an animated, scratching.
bouncing anchor. The horse was not
so very badly scared, after ALL and the
dog was big dog to carry on the bit.
The horse stopped presently, the
Great Dane grunting with Joy of the
struggle, and the boy came up. All
which shows the value of early edu
cation. New York Commercial Adver

yoke and collar being covered and the

One of the greatest drawbacks to
arming in this country, and espe-
cially in the New England states, is the
difficulty of keeping the boys upon
the farm. Fifty girls have taken up
the study of scientific farming in the
Minneapolis college of agriculture.
The progress of these young women
will attract general attention, and if
the results are practical the innovation
will naturally spread to other states,
and thus in the end work reform in
q. farming matters that will not only give
a new impetus to the industry, but
also rehabilitate many OF the now
abandoned New England farms, and
furnish profitable, healthy aud even
congenial employment to the super
abundant female population of those
states. With scientific methods, in
conjunction with the labor saving ma.
chimes now in vogue, farming is not
accompanied by the drudgery that
necessarily attended the work in the
years gone by. There is nothing in
the whole routine of farm labor that
cannot be accomplished by the aver
nge woman, and in no instance need
she unsex herself in its performance.
1t is to be hoped the movement start.

Birmingham, England, is frequently
referred to as the best governed city
in the world. Whether or not that is
true, Birmingham certainly has made
greater progress in municipal social
ism than any other city. Almost
everything is municipalized. 1t was
a pioneer in municipal tenement
houses, markets, slaughterhouses, mu-
seums, art galleries, Libraries, indus
trial schools, public laundries and
baths, street-car lines, gas plants, cleo
trio lighting, and draws most of its
revenues from business blocks erected
by the city upon the ground which
was formerly covered with the slums,
and was purchased in order to eradi-
cate them. Municipal sanitation is
probably carried to greater perfection
in Birmingham than in any other city
in the world, and the common council
is now spending S2,000,000 in the
purchase of a farm upon which the
sewage of the city may be utilized as
