Paper and Envelopes.

There is tendency t. use writing
paper as thin as our frocks. For
notes, gilt and silver-edged cards have
come in again, but they must not be
more than four inches long In large,
square and oblong sizes, with sealing
wax to match, women who like pro-
nounced writing paper are buying
pink, green, blue, violet papers and
envelopes. ''Bond and parchment
vellum, in white, are the color and
surface regularly supplied now to
highest class trade" said an author
ity. ''The same element calls for
everything which is in passing fash
ion. but uses the bond and vellum
without regard to momentary mode.
The surfaces of these papers are
neither as smooth as the glazed styles
of a few seasons ago nor as rough as
the Irish linen, which tried the pen
and the patience. New York Press.

Arms of the Shamrock's Owner.

OF course, it wouldn't have been
the thing for Sir Thomas Upton, tea
merchant, Cup challenger and recent
ly appointed Baronet, to come over
here on the Shamrock without a coat
of-arms. He might as we'll arrive
without a yachting cap. So he has had
coat-of-arms made, and, honestly,
he deserves great credit for the dem

window through which King Charles

The Newest French handkerchief.

French pocket handkerchiefs are
very odd this season. Some recently
imported ones have floral buttonholes
made in one corner; this buttons on
to button hidden in the folds of the
corsase. This device is to obviate
the neces sity of tucking the handker-
chief into the belt or the sleeve, for,
of course, pockets are obsolete. Some
Of the new handkerchiefs are round,
instead of square. White borders and
colored centres are odd, and novelty
is white handkerchief with colored
border and bowknot in each corner
of the same color as the border. Deep
blue and lilac are very effective colors
for these borders and bowknots.
Large, white, many-petalled mar
guerites are embroidered in the corn
ers of colored handkerchiefs. The
centre of the flower is left plain and
therefore colored. Tiny shields of
colored batiste worked with entwined
initials or n monogram are outlined
by openwork embroidery, which is
used also in place of hemstitched
border. Butterflies, flowers, leaves
and other designs are let in with open
work, with the initials embroidered
on them. The fancy borders are quite
deer, but many of the hemstitched
edges are extremely narrow, being the
merest line round the edge.

States. and to bear him out he referred
10 the movement started by Brazil, with

a Most Appreciated Contribution to the
Fair From the Harvey House.
A short time ago, the president OF the
Territorial Fair association, working
on certain lines agreed upon by the
executive COMMITTEES, mailed letter to
the great Harvey eating house system,
and explained the fact that the fair this
fall, mapped out with all varied amuse-
mentS. would undoubtedly draw together
in this city one of the largest crowds that
has ever assembled in any OF the cities of
the southwestern country. The letter most
naturally called for contribution to
the fair fund, TO enable the president and
executive committee TO fulfill all Of
their pledges made 10 the people of Albu-
qnerque and the territory, and this morn
ing THE CITIZEN is pleased TO announce
that Manager Ben. M8nger, OF the local
Harvey hOnse, received instructions to
subscribe toward the fair fund the liberal
sum OF f75. The letter says: I'VE ap-
preclate the fact that Albuquerque will
be visited by tremendously large crowd
in the coming September, ss the cOntem-
plated feathers, so different from the
previous fairs, are in keeping with the
progressive spirit OF the American peO-
pie, and will prove interesting and excit-
Ing TO the visitors. The extraordinarily
cheap rate offered on the railroads will
enable the people to attend who would
otherwise remain at home. We subscribe
SI5, and wish President McCreight and
his executive committee great success" {"
