The days are past when the Ameri-

cloth afternoon gown. The European
custom of elaborate dressing for the
theater has come across the water,

every woman can make changes in her
theater attire that will bring it more

TO A CHRISTMAS DEBUTANTE.

Not like the buds of Spring you flower,
Nor like June's radiant roses;
But Time, in Winters frosty hour
Your beauteous self discloses.
Good Father Time was kind, my dear,
And doubtless had his reason
To make your coming out this year
And in this Christmas season.
Perhaps he thought Saint Nick would
do
Too little for our pleasure;
So for himself he added you
To make the fullest measure.
Perhaps with you he left the task,
Believing 1t was in you
To choose, from those of us who ask,
The right man who may win you.
If this be so, and you're in doubt
Just who will stand inspection,
I'll be most glad to help you out
In making your selection.
I know the very man! Yet
May not reveal the same, dear.
So stubborn is my Modesty,
You'll have to guess his name, dear.

white silk, and again it is of the same
material as the wearer's gown.
Some very plain cloaks of white
cloth, seen both at the theater and ope-

One of these may be owned by any
woman who is not an absolute pauper

house once to see that white evening
wraps are the rage of the hour.

loose sacque shape, with bell sleeves

of the trimming is confined to the

cape edged with a fiobnce of Killed

of brown fur, and above that a deem
border of guipure grapes.
Many quite simple capes and coats
In pale-tinted cloths are seen, with
stitched bands and caracul Innings.

sewed state can be had for SIS, SO that
an elegant wrap may be secured for

BY sluggish pools where lizards sun
And ghostly moss swings tendrils dun;
High up where gnarled branches grow
Clean wazen berries, mistletoe.

And stretching backward ever more,
In waste of stunted shrub and tree,
Swept by the chill breath of the sea,
One touch of color burns and CLOVIS

With Natures frosted fretwork dress

RusIxin's Hopeless Love.
From Leslie's Weekly.

A contributor to an English contem-
porary states that there is in existence
letter by Ruskin, which he himself
has seen, giving Ruskin's own account
of the separation from his wife. 1t
shows, we are told, that there was
nothing more than incompatibility be-
tween tn I'm. The real passion of Rus
kin's life came to him when he was
man just fifty. He fell in love with an
Irish girl, Rosie Latouche. She loved
him. but their religious differences were
insuperable The girl died while still
a girl, and Ruskin broke down. Tie
misfortune clouded the rest of his life
in despair. He fell in with Spiritualists,
who revealed to him the spirit Of his
dead lady. Hence came the crushing
collapse which ultimately overthrew
his brain.

her how she was progressing. She re-
