My Lady's Stationery.

Stationery manages to keep pace
with the progressive spirit of the
times; and the various styles of writ
Ing paper for the newborn year are
very attractive indeed. The size that
Is most universal in the exclusive cir
cles is wider than that used last year
and little shorter, say about an inch.
1t goes without saying that there are
envelopes to match and these are
made with new shape of flap, round
in the center and slanting upward on
each side. Very elegant papers have
borders, such as is used on mourning
stationery, and II you are fortunate
enough to be in correspondence with
society you will notice that wedgewood
blue, with border of ecru is Just now
the vogue. Pastel lavender with a
white border is also pretty. Crests are
prepared in two colors and are as elab-
crate as possible. Many envelopes are
now sold with small seal annexed as
II they had been made with sealing
wax, but only required sticking. For
the accommodation of those who find
It expensive to keep supplied with en-
graved stationery, very pretty writing
paper comes already initiated in neat
design for nominal sum.

'if catch you smiling l will call you

host, "the things absurd. l will give
IA donation to the ork hospital if it
occurs" On the ensuing morning Smith
read the prayers reverently, as he al
looked around the church, and rested
his eye on the gentleman whose name
was Kershaw. That gentleman said
afterward that he did not know what
possessed him, but so it was, he gave
a broad smile. Thereupon the preach
er was seized with violent inclination
to sneeze, and, applying his handker-
chief with suitable action, he sounded
: "ker- er-ker-k-ker-shaw" three times over.

WINTER IN SWITZERLAND.

There is no doubt that the plan of
taking a winter holiday in Switzerland
is being more largely adopted of late
years, for all who try it discover the
country is more lovely in winter than
in summer. During December. Janu-
ary and February in the high Swiss
attitudes there are never any stormy
days, and winter sports, such as to-
bOgganing, skating, hockey on ice and
sleighing, all offer ample opportunity
for fun.
All this gayety has developed within
few years. Fifteen years ago q
