pippin is probably the greatest favor

in London by Benjamin Franklin IN

apple for export, for its high color
pleases the English, and it has good
shipping qualities. More apples OF
the Ben Davis variety are grown today

does better than almost any other

jewelry they wear" said young SOL

jewelry as it would be possible to find.
1t was made of leather, and instead OF
a precious stone it was mounted with
the tooth of some animal. 80
''Some of the native chiefs of the
interior" he continued, ornament
themselves with necklaces made Of the
knuckle-bones of the enemies they
have killed in battle. Their women
wear strings of the teeth of various
animals, both as necklaces and Brace
lets. Ivory rings and bangles are
also worn, and these are made OF
slicing sections from some hollow tusk
or horn.
"For the fingers. leather rings like
this one are'the most common. Near.

civilized, and wear iewelry Of gold aud

Bizarre Effects in Millinery.

The scheme Of making eyelet holes
in staff, throu 5h which to run strips
Of ribbon, Or of running ribbon
through lace, is no less po. ular than
when first introduced into last sum-
mer's gowns. Indeed, ribbon is some
times used III most bizarre fashion,
difficult to describe. For instanre,
there is a skirt Of inch wide pleats,
made of fine white cloth. 4 bow of
black velvet is placed near the bot ON,
a little at oae side. From this starts
a strip of bla'k velvet running in and
out OF the pleats and continuing up
the figure until it encircles the waist
in belt fashion, with a bow on the
left side. The blouse opens over an
underwaist of accordion pleated NOUS
seine de sole mounted over bright
pink. The cloth turns away in a
fehu collar, through which several
rows OF black rlobon are run. Several
black bows ornament the sides of the
blouse. There have been worn good
many costumes OF viii e cloth during
the winter. These are perhaps less
appropriate FOR visiting than for the
afternoon matinees and charity bazaars
so frequent in Paris little later in
the year. The a,e for Goth suits OF

is pale red. It is not pink, but a

THE SOUTH SEA BUBBLE.
All England Was Mad TO Support Thii
Surprising De!usion.

All England Was Mad TO Support This
Surprising De!usion.
The advances in science lead to hopes
of the sudden accumulation Of gold,
Just as the discovery Of new wo. Ids
led our ancestors to invest in many
inflated enterprises of commerce anI
conquest. This older temp alton has
passed away, for there are no new
worlds to discover, and this small
globe has teen practically staked out;
but the mysterious domains of science
are still illimitabie, and afford vast op-
portuuities for inflated schemes which
have their prototype in the South Sea
Bubble.
Let US refresh our memory of this
surprising delusion. It arose in the
reign Of queen Anne, nearly $50 years
ago, and when we consider the extent
of the speculation and gambling which
it caused and the number of those
who lost everything and who consigned
their families to bitter poverty, :7e are
tempted to class it with those other
calamities which preceded it and
which afflicted England SO heavily
the great fire of London and the
plague, The South Sea company
claimed to have enormous sources Vi
profit in e,tain exclusive privileges,
obtained from the Spanish govern
ment, for trading in their possessions
IN South America and Mexico; and it
may be we'll for MS in these times of
the fosation of schemes for Obtaining
gold from salt water and from sands,
of power from air and something more
ethereal than air, to be reminded of
the many bubbles that came into ex-
-istence and burst at the time of the
collapse of the South Sea Bubble.
The stock Of the South Sea co npary
rose from one hundred to thousand,
and an army Of future victims crowded
the Offices OF the company, anxious to
invest in what they believed won d
suddenly enrich them. Indeed, all
England seemed TO go mad, and the
craze OF the ii IS reflected in the

Neu Surfing Colors.

For the spring season the new
colors are more than usually lovely,
with the pastel shades far and away
ahead. By these pastel shades Is
meant the soft, delicate effects seen in
miniatures or old tapestries of EN- pire
danes. The tints are SO universally
Light, however, that much care should
be exercised in their selection, as light
goods make weak spots in figure or
defects in dressmaking more appar-
ent.
For tafieta waists and for whole
gowns for 4 dressy wear the strong
crushed strawberry tones will. be
very smart. There are two very new
deep ones called gonache and chrome
that promise to be exceedingly popu-
lar. Don't mistake these for the Van
dyke or crushed raspberry shades, as
they are too purplish to suit Madame
la Mode; pinkish tones are The proper
thing. -
Green will be strong spring shade,
but in either the clear, light pastel
tint called DetaiIle, or pure emerald
shade. Yellowish greens are quite
passe. The very most desirable and
newest green's, however, are of gray
ish mignonette hue, very light, and
are known as aquarelle, pastel and
fresque. 49,.
In the spring golden brown will
be in the background, and only
one tint of it, the light golden shade
called Maryland, will be seen at all.
This shade will be used to certain
extent in silk and satin faced cloth.
Corot is the name given lavendar
that is almost white that will be much
used for gowns Of light weight, glossy
cloth.

College Wo,nan's Cap ana Gown.

It is said that Professor D. S. Mar-
tin Of burgers college does not sane
ton the co educ tioual institutions on
the ground that they tend to ''lnerge
the woman in the co!legian." He also
disapproves of young women's don
ming cap and gown, for thereby, he
says, s"they lose tneir love for beauty
and that Development of personal taste
which is part of womanhood's charm. "
The ''college yelp' he considers un-
desirable.
Chancellor MacCrackeu OF the New
York university advo ates the use OF
the college gown for women, and those
rece wing the university @diplomas
from him must be thus attired. He
states that his daughter wore the gown
durin her course at Bryn Mawr, and
did not lose her liking for pretty
clothes ont of class hours.
