Honse Gowns of white.

A dainty fashion is having ones
house gowns made entirely in white
OF course this is an expensive fash
ion. but so dainty and becoming it is
not surprising that great many wo-
men cling to it, A most attractive
white tea gown is made of soft cam
els hair. 1t is tight fitting at the
back, with princess effect, but the
fronts hang loose from the shoulder
and are open to show tight fitting
waist and petticoat covered with lace.
This gown is trimmed down the front
and around the train with bands of
white fox fur. The sleeves are in the
shawl shape and open from the arm
hole, showing a fitted undersleeve of
lace. Around the edges of the shawl
sleeve are bands of the fur, and there
is high collar edged with the fur
and faced with lace.

.HUMoR OF THE HOUR.

When a gentle faced, mild eyed and
sweet voiced woman gets angry, tile
surprise of those familiar with her is
as great as that accredited to the saw
age hound when attacked by hare.
One of the most charming of this
class of women, who is entertaining a
number of friends from out of the
city, went to the telephone, put the re-
ceiver to her ear and in low, melodious
tones called for a number She wait
ed patiently and called again. At the
third request her voice showed a slight
elevation and a corresponding APP
proach to sharpness. Then began the
real entertainment.
See here! If you don't care to take
the time or don't know enough to get
me that number, kindly explain what
we are renting this telephone for It's
a nuisance and an imposition, that's
what it is. If the lines busy, say so.
| have a right to know whether there
is any use of my standing here wait
ing. I'm not in the hello business as
you are. Are you deaf and dumb, or
both? Cir me a thousand. I've stood
this neglect as long as I'm going to.
Hurry up now. If the company is
paying salaries for impudence, mat
tention and incompetency, / want to
know it. | never saw anything like
it," and there was an edge on her
voice that fairly sawed the air.
The husband and the company were
holding their sides, suppressing the
noise of laughter with handkerchiefs
at their mouths and signaling each
other to keep quiet.
Mamma" said the little daughter
who had just grasped the situation,
you forgot to ring up the main of
fee. You're tallzin to the empty-wires."
Mamma blushed, joined in the laugh
and admitted that she was glad that
her temper had caused nothing but
pleasure. Detroit Free Press.
