ELECTRIC heating would be q good
thing for Ell Paso, where heat is need
ed SO few days in the year. Where 1t
is necessary to heat room for short
time. or to heat possibly only portion
of 1t, the electric radiator is now COM
ing more and more into daily employ
ment. 1t is the ideal heat for spare
rooms, bedrooms, sitting-rooms, Of
fees, etc., not exceeding 5000 cubic
feet In volume each. 1t Is said that
when this size of room is exceeded, the
points in favor OF electric heating be-
gin to decrease. The chief advantages
of electric radiators for heating pur-
poses lie in the fact that they are al
ways ready for use, can be switched on
aud off as required, and can be moved
about.from room to room, and require
nothing but wires to connect them.
The points of cleanliness, safety from
FIRE, aud absence of any smell
also speak in their favor. A point
which should not be lost sight of is
that with electric radiators the absence
of dirt and dust results In a consider
able reduction of annual bills for
white-washing and repapering. Elec-
trio radiators are now the favorite
mode of heating on yachts and chips.
In England many of the leading thea
tiers are heated by the same agency.
Among other applications of electric
heating may be mentioned: Kettles
for keeping water boiling during tea
time, and taking the place of small
spirit lamps; different sizes OF hot
plates for keeping dishes and plates
warm during meal; egg boilers and
other small water boilers, such as
shaving pots, glue pots, etc.; ladies'
curling heaters, which consist of q
roun tubular heater, into which the
curling iron to be heated is inserted
bronchitis kettles, fat irons for ladies'
use and for use in the private laundry;
cigar and cigarette lighters. There is
no doubt that with the further cheap
entup of electric current, which seems
to be impending in many cities, the
spread OF electric heating will be both
extensive and rapid. The housewife of
FL Paso would no doubt welcome the
radiators.

THE QUAINT FASHIONS OF THE
EARLIER PART OF THE CEN
TURY HAVE BEEN RE-
VIVED CHARMIN0LY.
LACE COATS ARE IN STYLE.

Paris. June 2S.-Were you to spend an
hour at any of the little shore resorts,
where fashionable folk congregate dur
ing the heated term, you would decide
that fashions had turned toward the
picturesque. not slightly but with
vigor that left no doubt Of their inten-
tion.
Revivals are always picturesque and
leaves nothing to be desired in point of
artistic and antique beauty. And so
see these wonderful shepherdesses with
behaved sheep, while their marvelously
graceful garments never lost as much
as fold or tint, by the exposure and
the broiling sun.
Since the fancy for the tight wasted
gown departed all women look alike in
figure. There is no strong point of dis
similarity between the lean and the fat;
the hour glass waist has departed and
with it went the awful meal bag figure.
place of the tight wasted one and the
figures Of women have benefited.
The best ladies' tailors do advise
the box corset but prefer a rather
straight one that can be well pulled
down in front, leaving the bust high
above it. Over this can be drawn the
pointed waist: and the result is better
than in the perfectly straight box front
which, if anything, made the waist
trifie too large.
The LACE COAI.
The particular novelty Of the moment

tie coats are made of lace, of tulle. Of
muslin insertion, of unlined taffeta and
net. The object of the thin little coat

ways gives a gown and to take away

lette. One Of these little coats was cut
in blazer fashion. with the fronts we'll
open and finished in points caught to-
gether by lace strap. The sleeves We're
rudimentary affairs with only the tiniest
| lace epaulettes upon the shoulder. The
entire little garment was of met lace,
bordered with silk embroidery and fig
| ured with appliques of Sill.
| Another of these decidedly novel little
coats was of white embroidered taffeta
cut bolero style, with very tight fitting
sleeves to the elbow; the front was fas-
tened by a bow of black tulle with a
| buckle in the middle.
One that was much admired was OF
white pique, cut cadet fashion, with
two tiny points extending below the bell
line. The front was slashed to make 6
very effective finish, for, through the
slashed front. could be drawn the ends
of the big bow which was worn at the
throat.
Nothing could exceed the PICTURESQUE
beauty of the neck bow which, since i
has reached such oportions, lis known
by many names the most popular o
which is the chiffon" One of the mos
decorative of these chiffons consists o

A very simple yoke can be made of

is shirred at intervals of three inches and
a band of black velvet is fastened across
the shirring. The ends of the velvet
may be finished by a tiny buckle.
In bodices many new materials are
seen; it would seem as though the sup
ply We're inexhaustible. Just as you
think you have seen every variety of
new goods, behold you find something
that is a novelty. The manufacturers
have been turning out new designs all
summer and the dealers have had con-
stantly renewed supply. The trend is
still toward the very thin goods made,
for bodice purposes, over a heavier ma
terial.
Among the most elegant of the new
fabrics are those of ochre guipure over
a silk lining, or of white or cream silk

can have the most beautiful crepe-de-
Chine in the softest shades of color, and
the most lovely Venetian point over faille
or peau-de-soie.
THE SO..T SILKS.
Soft silks. such as eolienne or benga-
blouses, and silk crepon is particularly
suitable for the purpose. So much for
dressy blouses; simpler ones are made
of fancy delaine, or better still at the
present season of washing materials,
such as pique. zephyr, cambria and ba-
tiste.

noticeable when long wells were worn a
few seasons ago. For these long neck
arrangements all kinds of thin materials
are employed, tulle and gauze net taking
the lead. The manner OF arrangement,
too, is varied, but the fashionable mil
liners who sell the chiffons along with
the hats advise the big bow under the
chin with its long ends.
Attention once more concentrates up
on the bodice which is as varied as pos
sible. 1t is the two-part bodi,n with
blouse and jacket both as delicately
fashioned as possible. The blouse, as

RAMBLES OF THE RAMBLER
BREEZY NEWS, VIE VS. AND
What He Sees aud Hears While
Roaming the Streets.

The Rambler thought one time
he would not mention the matter
to.anybody. 1t has caused US a
great deal of trouble aud worry
and vexation aud we feel impel-
led to say something about tive
also feel confident that the few
friends we have will appreciate
the awkard position we are plac-
ed in and try to do something to
relief our distress. But even
now since our mind has been
made up to disclose the cireum-
stances that render it impossible
for US to show ourself on the
public street, we are almost per-
Esuaded not to do SO. It takes a
great deal of nerve to parade
ones misfortunes in the public
print. The commonality of hu-
manity feel no compunctions of
conscience in such things, but, like
the Pharisee of Biblical lore, We
are proud that we are not of that
class. That old and true saying
that, necessity is the mother of
invention causes us to come for
ward now with our domestic af-
fairs. The few friends, to which
we have just referred, always res
member Us on our birthday, when
we tell them about it, with small
gifts with accent or the smalD Of

ions. This year we did not receive
a cent or anything else. The night
before our birthday our wife cut
up the last remnants Of the suit
we had been wearing through
thick and thin (mostly thin) for
the past year to make our
Oldest boy a suit, she
thinking, and so did we, that on
the morrow We would get a new
suit and that we could stay in
bed until the bundles arrived. AS
we write now from our humble
couch we are filed with a long
ing to get out into the sunshine
and breathe the pure air which is
free for everybody. How many
more days we will have to be con-
fined to our haunted hut we do
not know, but we do know that
small gifts of money and cloths
ing and provisions did not ar
rive and neither did our birthday,
because it falls on the 29,h of
February and Mrs. Rambler
overlooked this fact when she
cut up our clothes.
1t is pltiful: 1t is terrible; aud

AZ.
The Rambler IN his perambu-
lations and in his circumambu-
lations finds much to engage his
cogitation and tax his discrimi-
nation as to what is proper for
publication.
In fact, a gentleman remarked
in the hearing of the Rambler
and not knowing who the Rams
bier is-that it requires more tact
and judgment and real ability to
say what shall not be published
than what shall be published in
running a newspaper. And then
he went on to say some very
complimentary things about the
ARGUS in this connection, and
laid it on so generously that, fol
once, we were ''almost persuad.

"What has become Of the Wo-

reports they used to publish on

man to the Rambler yesterday.

"ahat the services of the Street

Summer is approaching on the
fleet and unfagging wings of time,

be sewer pipes or water pipes or
decaying vegetable Or animal mat

dered such that no menace may
Turk therein to the health and lives
of their own families or those of
their neighbors.
1t has been the observance of
the Rambler, that men are more
prone to "spring fever" than
women; that it is the exception
when a..man is fond of or found
working the garden, which is a
spring time requirement, and
therefore an unfailing test as to
whether a man has the "spring
fever" or not. If he gets up ears
ly, to give an hour or two of
work in the garden before COM

ness; and goes home an hour or

same purpose, you may know he
is free from the fever, and you
will find that man's premises in

Whole families are returning to Canada

families to redeem their old farms or 10
buy new ones In their old parishes, or
In some of the new and fertile districts
