THE WHIRl OF FASHION.

There are few striking novelties In the
display Of either fashions or fabrics for
the coming spring and early summer.
Black and black and white effects are
to be quite as dominant as ever In the
spring fashions, and certainly nothing
can be much more useful or appropriate
for a greater variety of purposes.
The variety In embroidered silk hosiery
Is beyond detailed description, but one of
the special novelties shows an eagle en-
broidered in yellow silk, while another Ii
dotted over the front with single violets.
One of the pretty new fancy waists is
made OF white chiffon over white silk and
partially covered by a bolero and short
upper sleeve of Irish lace. The belt and
collar band are formed Of silver braid
and black taffeta ribbon.
The soft, glossy silk called feur de
soie-uncommonly durable for silk, close
~ woven, light in weight and delightful
to the touch-is much used for tucked
and plated fancy waists, dancing dress
es, tea gowns, blouse vests and dress
trimmings of various kinds.
The best gowned woman is ever the
woman who selects what most exactly
suits her individually. This is the gold
en- rule of well dressing. the followers of
which never make any serious mistake in
the important solution of the old but ever
new question, "Wherewithal shall ye be
clothedr
Plaitings and tuckings OF every width,
length and style, in inserted fan clusters,
in vertical rows stitched a portion OF
their length, In crossing diamond and
trellis forms and In many odd modes OF
adjustment both on skirt and bodice, will
be as much in vogue on summer gowns
as though the season of 1901 were the in
itial one of their favor.

Mustn't "Owno Their Engines.

The railroad engineer who towns"
his engine Is not In favor with his su-
periors. Complaints about trivial mat
tiers are likely to be made against him,
and soon he finds himself without a
berth. The phrase owning an engine"
does not mean that the engineer has
acquired title to his iron horse. The
expression is used of a man who has
been with certain engine so long that
he becomes part of 1t. He knows its
every popularity, he feels its every
protest against a heavy load, and he
nurses it and coddles 1t as II it were
his child. He dislikes to run the en-
CINE at top speed for fear something
will happen to 1t, and In consequence
his train is frequently behind time. He
takes a grade at half the rate he should.
and he runs cautiously down hill. In
a word, he Gowns" his engine.
or course this Is all very nice and
idyllic, and 1t is the kind OF thing q
person likes to read about in stories of
the railroad. But plain, practical rail
road men look at 1t differently. They
argue that the best engineer is the man
who never fails to run his train accord
ing to his running time, the man who
Is never behind and seldom ahead. So
1t comes about that the engineer who
makes a master of that which should
be his servant wonders who has a
grudge against him. But It isn't a
grudge; it's business.-New York Mail
and Express.

pointment that duty fell to somebody

the women file out he could only gaze
at her from afar and be politely stupid
to the woman next him. He had never
met her before, but somehow they
seemed to know each other very well
by the time they had spoken a few
words In the course of the short wait
before the guests paired of on their
way to the dining room. He didn't
know what she thought Of him, but he
knew that from his point Of view she
was about right. And he was man
difficult to please.
The men seemed to him to linger over
their cigars an interminable time. AT

There's good story told on young
fellow here noted for his closeness. He
went to spend the night with friend.
During the entire night he betrayed
much restlessness, which kept the host
wide awake, and finally the slumberer
betrayed signs of violent emotion.
Hes going to have a nightmare" said
the friend, "but he always grumbles so
when you wake him up that l hate to
disturb him." He waited awhile Ion
ger, sitting up In bed staring on the
miserable sleeper, and finally, becom-
ing alarmed, he reused him. He sprang
up in bed, glared wildly around and
said: where am /? 1 don't see the
storm"
"Why, here in my ROOM" said the
host soothingly. "You remember you
staid all night with me? 1 beg your
pardon for waking you up, but you car
ried on so / had to-"
BEG your pardon" gasped the guest.
81 shall never be grateful enough to
you. / dreamed 1 was out with Miss
Bud, and q terrible storm came up, and
my shoes were new, and I was just
ordering a coupe for two when you
reused me. Old boy. you have saved

And the host says he was actually
afraid to 90 to sleep again that night
for fear the coupe would come.-Louis-

He was most worthy young man,
with a fondness for discussing socio-
logical and moral questions, and once
started on his hobby he could scarcely
be headed In any other direction. He
had been quite devoted In his attention
to one young woman for as much as
six months, but she had been unable to
bring him to his senses, though she
was willing to confess that she had
tried repeatedly to do so. OF course
she had done 1t in the delicate ways
women have in those matters, but
what he needed was a club.
Not great while ago he was calling

might appear.
