of pearl Sequins. Over the hips, as far
as the top flower, fell an overdress of
net striped with sequin lines, while the
body of satin was covered with Sc
quined net and strapped with ribbon
of ashy gray satin just the color of the

The Silken Age.
Decidedly we are in the silken age
Of dress. A proof of this is the tailor
mans graceful surrender to the public
demand for stiff walking suits of silk.
What women want these days they
achieve sooner or later. and the silk
runabout coat and skirt is a witness
to the power of their whims. a stern
tailor system and measure is followed
in the makeup of these. Their seams
are strapped with stitched silk, their
pockets are fore instead of aft, and
their small coats are strong acceSsions
to the we'll ordained wardrobe. The
black taffeta coat has a tail as jaunty
as a wren's, and its notched lapels are
always frightened with some sort of
an admiral rever. Not simple duck
linen or pique revers. bear in mind but
really luxurious fold backs of cream
guipure treated with tinsel, or white
chiffon frosted with fine black needle
work; truly valuable revers that a
of a few basting stitches, to any coat
she elects to wear.
When Travelling.
Under their taffeta coats, ye luxuri-
Gus females, who also are sensible
women, for a taffeta coat is the cool
est cleaneSt, least wrinkling and most
staunchly wearing travelling wrap pur-
chasable, they shift many varieties of
silk summer skirt. Noqasaki is the
smart silk from Japan, a find for hot
weather, while herring bone striped
satin moulds the skirt that gives COM
fort on brisk day. Moirette and silk
warped Alpine are both solid invest
ments with every security of long
wear for the thrifty, and women who
can see a fashions approach while yet
it is no larger than a mans hand, are
making up some of their skirts to fas-
ten behind, having broad yokes over
the bust and worn with high stocks of
cream Breton net bearing black silk
dots of a variety of sizes.
Truly heroic efforts have been made
in the present season to down the white
glove, and enforce the adoption of a
more serviceable, less expensive lux
ury, and a number of women persist
in wearing gmy castor beaver for all
save social occasions of distinct for
mality. The smart new grey glove is
heavily stitched in white, has in place
of buttons puckered elastic wrist, and
the three-inch length on the wrist
folds back, as far as the base of the
thumb. in widish cuff. Such is the
glove for horsey, cycling. boating pur-
poses. A revival has been successfully
carried out in favor of the biarritz sac
glove, than which there never was a
more comfortable hand covering ever
invented. MARY DEAN.

Hail to the Chief horribly.
There was only one president who
had a private car. That was Lincoln,
the man above all others who was sim
pie in his tastes. 1t was not a very
fine affair. Today it would not be
used for second-class traffic. All the
other presidents have Travelled in pri-
vate cars offered for their use by rail-
road companies or sleeping-car COM
panies.
Just after the election of President
Mckinley some railroad men got to-
gether and planned special car for
the president which was to be finer
than that of Queen Victoria's. 1t was
to be built throughout of native pro-
ducts and the blending of native woods
in its decoration was to suggest every
section of the country. All the material
was to be contributed and the labor
was TO be done in the railroad shops
This scheme was so attractive that
presently it expanded into a plan for an
entire train for the presidents use, to
be an appanage of the executive Of
flee, not Mr.. McKinley's private prop
erty. The elaborated plan provided for
baggage car to contain a dynamo for
heating and lighting the other cars,
sleeping coach for the presidents sec
rotary and clerks, and special car for
the president and his guests. As plan
Heu, the pItSlueHl car was TO De
siXty-nine feet, six inches long, or fif-
teen and one-half feet longer than
Queen Victoria's: while in width was to
be nine feet eight inches. At one end
was to be the witchen and quarters for
cook and porter. A salon In the middle
of the car, two bedrooms, a bathroom
and an observation-room We're also in
the plans.
Nothing has been done toward build
ing this train and the project seems
to have fallen through So the presi-
dent in his outings will use other per-
sons cars as most of his predecessors
have done.
Paying For the Journey
Sleeping car companies put at the
disposal of the president their finest
cars, and railroad officers tender the
use of their private coaches, because
as they go about the country they are
a peripatetic advertisement for the
railroad and sleeping care companies;
and either one would be very glad. if
it were necessary, to pay something
for the privilege of carrying the chief
magistrate.
Only one railroad man disagrees with
this proposition, SO far as is known.
He was the general passenger agent
of line running east from st. Louis
when President Harrison visited that
city. The railroad man who was man.
aging the trips was allied with the
same interests as the general passen-

He declined the invitation of another
road to take the presidents train east
through loyalty to his own people. And

Curling-iron manufacturers won't

all right, as long as a woman's single,
SO the married ones assert, but they do
say that this method won't do at all
after a woman is married. Why? Be-
cause there is nothing that the average
man dislikes more than curl papers,
unless it is the horns which appear
after a woman has skewered up her
front hair on a lot OF barbed-wire-
fence hairpins. An inventive genius
has made it possible for woman to
do her hair UP, as the overnight
curling process Is called, and at the
same time to enhance her beauty, II

a set of hairpins and small rods and a
few bits OF baby ribbon. The hair Is

ends OF the ribbon are tied in a pretty
little bow. the hairpin slipped out. and
there you are with your hair done up

the hair in the much-desired pompa-
dour style, and there are other little
instruments in the outfit which make

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.--A special to
the Herald from Washington says;
Secretary Gage will not discuss the
question of what further action. if any,
he will take to relieve the monetary
stringency. The gravity of the situa-
ton is thoroughly appreciated by the
treasury department., but just what
will be done it is impossible to predict,
though it is probable that some meas
ure of relief will he afforded by in
creasing the government deposits in
national banks.
An offer to purchase another block
of government bonds may be consider
ed, though the result of the last Of
fer were not encouraging. Officials
think that in time of stringency the
government ought not to be expected
to offer more than the market price
for its bonds. 1t is apparent, however
that if bonds are to be boue ht, more
must be offered for them, as under the
last offer the government received only
$40, 600, 900 out of the $35, 600, 900 which
Secretary Gage was willing to buy.
