manufacturers and reimbursement saws
the Millinery Trade Review, are anxious
70 place their new productions In satin and
velvet brocaded, warp-printed, and velvet
striped ribbons. which are extremely rich
IN design and varied in combinations OF
color. That they will be adopted to an
extent by some milliuers there is very
little doubt; still, the majority may
continue to give their preference to plain
teXtured ribbons
There is question of MORE ribbons
coming in again, but mnliners have
not yet had their say in the matter.
Ribbon velvet is in considerable demand
and gives every promise of remaining in
IaVor. Rather wide widths are asked for,
ana this branch of business is decidedly
nourlshlng, whereas milliners are shy of
ordering wide-width fancy ribbons in the
present uncertain state of fashion in re-
spect 10 them, as the really handsome ar
lcles are sold al a very high figure, and
II there is question about the best quail
tiles, there is little or none about the in
ferior weaves.
A good plain ribbon pleases far better
than second-rate figured article
l am informed on good authority, that
the coming season promises exceedingly
we'll for the velvet trade.
The girl who is eVerybodys favorite Is
generally a girl of average attractions.
She is not wondrously beautiful nor as
tonishingly clever nor so wise that she
knows other peoples business better than
they do themselves, yet she is believed by
all, young and old, and she will be sought
for when the pouting beauty, with her
matchless hair and eyes, is left alone, and
the student who can tell you all about The
things of science sits moping in a corner,
While the all-wise person is Stunned as
the plague. This universal attraction is
a gift which is born with one, and, al
though 1 win not say that 1t could not
possibly be acquired, it is not often the
result of education.
We see babies who toddle into our hearts
with their first trembling steps, whose
dimpled hands hold our fondest, Warmest
love as firmly as they clutch our hair.
They may be among the dearest things in
the world to us all through childhood to
maturity, and some day we awaken to ind
that the laughing baby was developed in
to the beloved woman, whose voice is nu-
sic in all ears, and who has fond hearts
scattered SO thickly along her path that
the whole road seems colored
The old people regard her as a sunbeam;
the young think no gathering so complete
or enjoyable without her and the children
hang after her with adorng eyes and
hearts, which are not the least of her tri-
umphs. She can always get what she
wants and the paradox is that she doesn't
want things half as badly as other people
who are never gratified. She is content TO
take what comes her way, and she never
signs after the unattainable, which might
as easily be hers if she wished, as the
most ordinary everyday things of life are
owned by other mortals says the Pitts
burg Press.
This girl is puzzle. The girls wonder
why she is so beloved by their brothers
and cousins. "Of course" they reason,
"she is a dear, sweet, little thing but then
there is nothing extraordinary about her"
never dreaming that it is just that quar-
ity which is admired and loved. Extra
ordinary things are all very well when we
go sight seeing, or take a days Journey
into some curiosity cabinet to see the
queer articles which are in the world, but
for the everyday purposes of life we want
something like ourselves, something not
above sympa thizing with our ills, ailments
and tempers.
