There seems TO have been no mistake
made when Judge Mccoy was chosen
to take Judge Campbell's place. Law

doing as good work as Judge Campbell
did. No higher praise a be given

the mirror, Is reflected back into the
hall, to its much better lighting, while
the apparent size Of the little place is
greatly increased. The mirror is, of
course, unframed, and is fitted in be.

New Tints of the Moment.

Red tones are conspicuous in the
windows, but comparatively few
smart women affect this color, and it
is more generally worn by young girls
and children. Every effort is made to
revive green as fashionable color,
but very little will be worn in cloth
and woolen fabrics, although 1t is ac-
cepted to some extent for evening
gowns.
A delicate tint OF lettuce green or
lily leaf, as it is also termed, is too
attractive to be overlooked, and it is
extremely smart in combination with
