NEW STOCKS.

Taffeta, peau de sole and crepe de
chine, says an exchange, are the most
favored materials so far for dainty
neckwear. Fancy, small pieces vie
with the ones boasting long tie ends
in popularity. Embroidery is greatly
in evidence; so is hemstitching. French
knots are as good as ever, and narrow
ribbon is introduced into some deco
rative schemes.
This last Is observed in a stock tie,
the turnovers and pointed ends of
which are hemstitched. A showing of
black French knots is supplemented by
a shaped edge done in white satin baby
ribbon, with black, thread-fine bor-
der. This is very pretty.
A striking magpie is seen In a black
taffeta stock The turnover piece is
of white pointed at the front, where
it is embroidered in medallion effect
in black.
Another style, a stock tie, shows
deep turnovers of white rather heavily
embroidered in black.
More striking, and plainest of all, is
a white taffeta stock. Both the stock
proper and the turnover are cut into
deep, overlapping tabs at the front
Both are edged with a black piping.

THE UNKNOWN PATH.

Love turned, and stretched his hand,
and she forsook
The pleasant ways of which her feet
were fain,
Green field and garden fair and wood
land nook,
Soft dew and scent, and sweet famil-

An unknown path to tread
Set round with briers and songless
boughs instead.
But as they walked, close leaning each
to each,
Behold. beneath the passing step of
Love
Sprang redder roses, and his murmur-

Woke sweeter strains, that, silver
clear above,
From some blue mountain zone
Midway to heaven thrilled with Joy

A UNIQUE WEDDING CAKE.

A wedding cake that can talk and
play a wedding march is being made
by a Jersey City baker. This unique
gift will be sent to Miss Bertha Sun
derson, a former resident of Jersey
City, who is now in Heidelberg. Ger
many, says the New York Tribune.
She is soon to become the bride of Ru-
dolph Zollern, and the ceremony will
be performed in Heidelberg.
The cake will be four-decker. about
three feet high. 1t will be decorated
with sugar Cupids and queer little fat
Germans holding stems aloft and look
ing as if they were exclaiming
"Prost!" There will also be@sweet lit
tie flower girls and wedding bells. On
the top story will be a bride and
bridegroom in front of the officiating
clergyman. The talking arrangement
will do it's duty when the top piece of
the cake is lifted off, and the bride and
bridegroom and wedding guests will be
amazed. A little photograph will tell
the newly married couple just how
much happiness their Jersey City
friends wish them, after which it will
play three bars of the wedding march
from "Lohengrin.'
