point guipure.
A gown of cool white linen has q
full pouched Russian bolero, with a
vest of embroidered lawn threaded
with narrow black velvet, and a large
sailor collar to correspond.
A smart costume of blue linen,
made in bolero form, has a simulated
waistcoat Of white linen trimmed
with narrow black braid. The skirt
is finished in godets at the bottom,
each panel between being trimmed
with the white linen and braid TO
match the bolero.
Tucltings are apparently as pop
ular as ever. Some used are fully
an inch wide, while others are so
tiny that they seem like cordings.
Red and white foulard is combined
in a pretty gown with ivory chiffon,
narrow black satin ribbon and inser-
tions of Chantilly lace.
The "endless chain" idea has been
applied to the lorgnette chain with
uEdoubted success. The chain Is
made to move easily through a loop
which is attached to the swivel catch
ing the lorgnette. BY this means a
breakage is prevented II the chain
should be caught on any projection,
which so often happens.
A dainty French cambric, with a
eobweb pattern In black, is made into
a gown which has trimmings of cerise
taifeta forming the belt and edging
the revers on the waist and the FIVE
small-shaped hounces on the skirt.
Coats Of alpaca or flannel are use

on collar lapele, and sleeves with fine
green cord. II Is well TO have some
OF the evening dresses for country
use fitted with transparent yokes and
sleeves, that one may enjoy the gar
den or veranda without Inconvenience

gentleman 60 o. New Orleans Times
Democrat man. Years ago all my
laundry was done by a Chinaman,
who was the best washerman / ever
knew. My linen came home spotless- .
~ clean and magnifcently laundered,
and that Chinaman was treasure in
his line. One night a friend passed
the night with me. 1 loaned him a
nightshirt, and when he got up the
next morning put out one Of my
shirts for him. He wore IL, leaving
his soiled garment in its place to go
out with my wash. The Chinaman
failed to call for the soiled clothes
as was his custom, and upon sending
10 his place the laundry was found
closed and no one knew where the
washerman had gone. I sent the
bundle of soiled linen TO a steam
laundry, and when my clothes were
sent home every garment was marked
with the initials ofemy friend who
had passed the night with me and
whose shirt 1 had sent TO the laun-
dry with mine. Up to that time not
a spot of indelible ink had appeared
on any Of my clothes. Cinnamon do
not mark clothes, but use different
eolored strings TO keep the clothes Of
their customers separate. But in
steam laundries everything is marked
in indelible ink, and as the shirt of
my friend was the only garment
marked his initials were put on
every piece / had sent to the wash,
Notwithstanding my own name was
on the laundry slip and my initials
were nothing like those on the one
marked shirt. Since that time have
never been able TO escape the initials
of my former friend. Go where /
may, those initials still stick to my
clothes, and every washable garment
own to this day Is marked with
nay friends initials. Since the day
his shirt went to the laundry in my
bundle l suppose / have bought 100
shirts, half as many suits of under
wear and twice as many pairs of
socks, collars and neckties, and in
variably they have been marked with
that mans initials, no matter in what
part of the country 1 may be. / am
strongly tempted to give away all
the wash clothes / possess just to get
rid of the initials of my friend which
have so long stuck to me. / know no
other way to rid myself Of this laun-
dry mark old man of the sea. As
long as those initials stick to me I
am in danger of being identified as
some other man should l be knocked
insensible in the street, be the vic.

KILLS THE BLoomER IDEA.
stroyed Chances of OId-Time
Dress Reform Plans.

Fifty years have elapsed since
Amelia Bloomer publicly advocated
the wearing by women Of the cos
tune which has since been known
by her name. Strangely enough, she
did not originate the idea. She was
editing a Temperance and women's
rights journal and the editor Of an
opposition paper suggested that she
and her kind ought 10 wear Turkish
trousers in public. Mrs. Bloomer
took up the suggestion at first IN a
spirit of humor, but the controversy
grew serious and a Mrs. Elizabeth
Smith Miller tried the experiment
of wearing the newly invented cos
tune for women. 10 was a very diff
ferent dress from that donned by the
advanced advocates OF semimasculine
attire for women in these days. The
trousers were loose and baggy and
they came down TO the ankles, where
they were fastened by a drawstring.
In short, they were exactly like the
bathing trousers which women used
20 wear 25 years ago. No one could
have found fault with them on the
score Of modesty, especially as the
skirt which went with them came
down far below the knee. SO much
for ancient history.
The most obvious comment TO be
made on the subject Is that in half a
century the advocates Of the bloomer
costume have not succeeded in having
II generally adopted by women. To-
day it's use Is wholly IA the hands
of bicycle riders, and Il may be added
that they have turned use into such
an extensive and ridiculous abuse
that they have practically killed Mrs.
Boomers idea.
