It Is absurd. The flaring collar and large
revers give it what style it possesses, and
for travelling it is decidedly useful.
To most figures the short jacket, tight
at the back and tight or loose ia front, is
more becoming than anything else. This
never goes out OF fashion, although the
basque, revers and sleeves vary a little
from year to year. When 1t is trimmed
at all this season, except by stitching or
straps, the decoration usually consists
Of round cords, which form a design in
relief.
The long redingote holds its own. Il
is adorned with stitching, which often
Stimulates 4 round pclerine at the shout
ders.
The latest form of the cape, for use
with elegant toilets, is short at the back
and sides and has long stole fronts reach
ing to the foot of the gown. These capes
are covered with lace, beads and span
giles and are very elaborate.
The cut depicts a new jacket Of mastic
cloth. 1t is half fitting at the back and
straight in front, entirely bordered with
six rows OF stitching. The collar and
revers are very large, and there is deer
pelerine with stitched straps at the

One of the most curious Of Whitmon-
day customs is that which is observed
once in every 20 years at Corby, North
amptonshre. The inhabitants assemble
at an early hour, stop up all roads and
byways in the parish and demand toll OF
all who desire to pass through the village
on that day In case of noncompliance,
the traveller is placed upon stout pole
and carried vi ct arms through the
streets, escorted by the shouting popu-
lace. "Pole fair" as 1t is called, is not
without historical interest 1t appears
that Queen Elizabeth granted the inhabit'
ants of Corby a charter to free them
from serving on juries at Northampton
and to free the knights of the shire from
the militia law. This custom of taking
toll has been observed every 20 years il
commemoration of the granting of the
rharter.-London Chronicle.

Many people think that the present
crisis in China will afford an opportunity
for the return of the famous reformcr,
Kang Yu Wei, who is now an exile with
price on his head.
He has been accused Of desiring China
for the Chinese, and on the strength of
that declaration is spoken Of as the most
antiforeign OF all the Chinese refurmers.
But he desires the reformation of the
government of China, the application of
western methods of manufacture, for the
Improvement Of the people and the coun-
try, as the japanese desired and sue
cessfully instituted rcform-because he
recognizes the low estate of modern Chi
ia and the risks she runs of political eX-
tinction.
In an interview in Hongkong Kang
stated that he was recommended to the
notice Of the emperor by 10 Sit Tsang
one of the censors, native of llupch
Then Weng Tung no, the cmpcrors tu-
tor and Ii Tung Feng president of the
board of rites, devoted some attention to
him. His reform so impressed the cmpcr-
or that he was ordered to confer with the
tsung li-yamen.
On the following morning Prince Kung
and Weng Tung-ho reported the result Of
| the conference to the emperor. Prince
Kung was against the reform proposals,
and although he admitted that Kang was
clever and able, he said: "He was talking
nonsense. He speaks about changing the
ways of our ancestors" Weng Tung no,
on the other hand, supported the propo-
sails, and the emperor called upon Kang
to submit memorial embodying his
scheme OF reforms.
Kang Tu Wei thus summarizes his
daring memorial to the throne: 81 told
the emperor that all the old customs
and ways and manners of his ancestors
must be removed. Nothing could be
uscfully followed so far as Chinese his
| tory was concerned. ] advised the en-

peror to follow in the footsteps Of Japan
or of Peter the Great in Russia.
AS preliminary step | advised the
emperor 10 command all his ministers Of
state and all the high officials in Picking
10 20 before the places whore they wor-
SHIPPED the gods and also to the ancestral
halls, there to register an oath that they
were determined to introduce reforms.
MY second suggestion was To have
the laws and administration revised: my
third, that he should open communica-
ton or dispatch department, through
which any one would be able To me
morialize the throne. | told him that he
had no means of finding out the desires
of the people; that the responsibility of
administration was too widely diffused;
that he should select young, intelligent
men, well mbued with western ideas, To
assist in the regeneration of the empire,
irrespective of their social position,
whether they were lowly born or of high
degree.
II advised the creation OF - new de
partments. modelled on western lines, and
that foreigners be engaged to advise and
assist.
81 pointed out the enormous loss OF
revenue that occurred yearly. Taking
the magstracy of Namhoi (which is my
native district, | informed the emperor
I that the total revenue derived from il
was $4,000 year but the aetua
amount going into the imperial purse WA
only something over $4,000.
Il recommended n complete change OF
the system under which the whole of tbs
revenues of the country would go int
the imperial purse, comparing China
with India and adducing from the ex
perience of India the financial resources
of China.
81 told the emperor that from ordinar!
taxes 400, 100000 taels could be raised
annually, and if the likin native Gus
toms) were abolished and a tariff proper
ly adjusted, bank notes issued, stamI
