or boas of chiffon of liberty silk. The
high-standing ruffle is edged with
! heavy chinille and yards and yards of
chinille streams from the ends. This
novelty in black, white or pale blue
proves attractive whether on the
wearer or in the shop window. Not
many stocks are made of ribbon, but
one large store making display Of
/ fine neckwear gives the following:
The stock is made of striped ribbon
put together so that the stripes run
up or down. The ribbon with its
stripes running lengthwise is then
drawn closely round the stock and
tied in full short bow in front.
! In New York ho:se, whose name
is a synonym for correct style and
exclusive design the plain collar
stood highest in favor. This was made
with or without the stylish little bow
in the center. The foundation of the
stock is black velvet. To this is added
gold ribbon and some color. The
silk used is soft taffeta, cut on the
bias and finished with a fancy stitch
/ ing or double folds. The silk is drawn
closely around the collar below the
| gold band and made into a full bow
in the center, usually with double
loops and no ends. In these stocks
you may match all the new colors in
flannel, old rose, leaf green, Roman
red, silver gray, etc. The same house
speaks with authority on flannel
waists, and calls attention to forty
shades in these beautiful garments
1t would not do to close without
mention of the jaunty little bows for
the hair, which hold the same charm
ing effect of gold as seen in the neck
wear. The bows are smaller than
those of last season, narrow velvet
being used with gold gauze ribbon.
All colors are seen, but here, too, there
is preference for black and gold or
white and gold. Some have fanci-
ful loops of twisted velvet and gilt.
One of the new styles has the loops
and ends gathered into a straight
standing bow like a pompon. The
more elaborate bows have added to
them ornaments and aigrets.

NEW ENGLISH MEDALS.
Commemorate End of Century and
South African War.

SOulH NlIlCdn w Or.
We have been favored with a sight
of three new medals, which, both as
works of art and as historical memoir
ials of the time, will excite much inter-
est as soon as they are published to the
world. Two are from the hand of Mr..
Emil Fuchs, sculptor whose work has
lately met with no small success in the
Royal academy and other exhibitions.
The other is the medal about to be is
sued to troops in memory of the south
African campaign. The larger of Mr..
Fuchs medals is commission from
the queen, and is intended by her ma
Jesty as personal memorial for the
end of the century. Executed in the
dull oxidized silver which is now invar-
iably employed by the French medal
lists, and which most people identify
with the name of M. Roty, this fine
medal presents on the diverse a head
OF the queen and on the reverse the
Angel of Victory announcing "Vic-
torla' to the new century. The profile
mead of her majesty by Mr.. Fuchs is
sculptor or medalist has achieved, and
is modelled with great skill and deli
cacy. The queen wears the crown
and under it wreath of laurel; these.
the lace of the dress and cap, and the
whole figure on the reverse are pre-
sented in low relief and present almost
the effect of sketch.
The figure of Victory, new-lighted on
a globe where the name africa" is
dlscernible, holds aloft tablet bearing
the word Victoria" In Mr.. Fuchs,
smaller medal-two inches in Diane
ter. the other is three inches-we have
designs specially indicating the war
On the diverse a fallen soldier presses
the British flag to his heart, while over
MIN bends an angel crcwning him with
laurel. On the reverse a spirited Bel
Iona sheathes her sword, while in the
distance the British army is seen
marching to Table Bay to embark in
the warships in the harbor; and the
sun OF Peace, inscribed pax" is rising
over the mountains. This medal has
not been ordered by the queen. but
has been submitted to her.
The third medal, which has been
adopted by the war office, bears the
mead OF the queen in rather high relief:
the reverse is figure of Britannia
holding out wreath toward the sol
o'ers who are pressing forward. while
two warships are moored in the bav
close at hand This side of the rodaI
is excellent, particularly the minute
ngures OF the men, which are full or
NE and movement; the queens head
is scarcely so good likeness as that
achieved by Mr.. Fuchs. We presume
that it would be a mistake to oxidize
the silver. The soldiers would not an
preciate anything less bright and
sparkling than a new shilling.-Lon-
don Times.

and that the results prove it to De
perfect success. Buoys of this type
are now made that will not only burn
continuously from eighty to 300 days.
according to capacity desired, but VIII
ring bell every fifteen seconds auto
matically, thereby overcoming the
fault of the ordinary bell buoy, which
is dumb when the surface of the water
is perfectly smooth. This improve
ment ~ the Pintsch buoy costs but
$500 more than those without it and is
of inestimable value to the masters or
all descriptions of craft, from the 5O0-
footer down to the smallest coast
lugger; and it goes without saying that
the great and growing yacht fleet OF
the lakes and the princely private
steam yachts are as much interested
as other vessels.
When lake vesselmen know of some
thing they need and want they are not
backward in asking for it, and the In
dications are that the lighthouse board
will soon hear from the Lake Carriers
association in regard to the adoption
of this new improvement on the lakes,
whether it has been adopted on the
seacost or not. 1t is said the new
style of buoy would be much more
serviceable in crowded channels than
the electric-lighted buoys, which are
extinguished and become useless dur
ing gales, time when they are most
needed. The gas buoy never goes out
during the time for which it is con-
structed to burn, while the ringing of
bell in fog, in addition to per-
manent light, would be boon the need
of which has long been felt.-Chicago

CHAPTER XIV.

1t struck Lord RIVERS. for the first
time since his marriage, that the beau
tiful wife he had won from the wood
lands of st. Byno's did not love him
with quite the same devoted affection
he had Tor her. He would have been
content to have remained with her for
ever he asked nothing better than to
live always with her In the weird villa
overlooking the Rhine; he wanted no
other society, no other world-heart,
content.
Not so with her. 1t was with some
thing of dismay that she found her
husband quite willing to live at the
solitary villa. 1t was beautiful enough
she did not attempt to deny that;
but to her richly gifted. vivacious ma
ture, to her ardent mind and soul,
there was not sufficient in this wor-
ship of nature; she wanted more life,
more to amuse her, than the contem-
plation of magnificent scenery. Lord
RIVERS was of contemplative nature,
his young wife rejoiced in n more act
i've disposition. She liked to tread
frequented paths of life. he the by
paths. She liked to be always doing
he to be always thinking.
He was thinking very seriously one
morning, as he stood in his favorite
spot, the pretty rustic bridge over the
Saltz, the river foaming and fretting
beneath, the green boughs spreading
above, the blue sky over all. He had
been thinking, first of all. that he
would paint such a picture as would
set the whole world on fire with admi-
ration-just this bridge. with the deep
foaming river beneath, the tall trees
with their great boughs, and the beau
tiful figure of his wife standing be-
meath them, just as he had seen her
stand hundreds OF times, with a wrapt
expression of admiration on her face.
II he could paint her as he had seen
her, II he could catch the brilliant col
oring. the lovely lights and shades al
ways fitting over her face. IL he could
catch that superb poise of the head,
and grave. proud bearing of the figure.
he would call his picture "The Queen
OF the Rhine" and men should bow
down in homage to the exquisite face
whose beauty now was known only to
him. The more he thought of II the
more he became possessed of the idea.
Even his lady-mother. who sneered at
pictures and haughtily patronized
art-even she should acknowledge that
IL was a chef d'euvre.
And the thought OF Lady RIVERS
brought many other things to his
mind.
He had lost himself OF late in a
dream of happiness; he had almost
forgotten the responsibilities of life
that he was heavily weighed by for
tune. that he had all the responsible
ties of title. position. rank and money.
They had always been a tie and bur
den to him, whose life had been more
or less engrossed by art. IL by some
good chance he had been born an art
list he would have been a good and
happy one; born In high sphere, his
art ,career was In some degree spoiled.
HIS vest fortune entailed many duties
