rufIle striped with perpendicular ap-
plications of the ribbon and headed
by a toothed strapping outlined with

blue zibeline. The waist is made with
a strapped crossed over effect and a
wide double collar of the cloth and of
velvet of darker shade The sleeves

sleeves of lace. The belt is of velvet.
The skirt is circular and opens on the
front seam with a strapped effect and
two buttons. The hat which goes with
this dress is of black velvet and tulle.

Irving as a Upper.

Sir Henry Twins prodigality to-
ward servants was well illustrated
some years ago when he was at Bluff
Point, Lake Champlain. He gave the
driver of the break which daily ran to
Au Sable Chasm $50 in two weeks and
feed the other servants with like reck-
lessness. The guests of the hotel grew
very indignant, because there was no
getting along with the employees, who
almost literally fought among them
selves to minister to the needs of the
English actor and sadly neglected the
rest of the guests.

pIsLNFEcTlNe a SHIP.
Moist Heat, Thorough Germicidal
Agent, IL Used.

When the vessel has tied up to the
wharf in New Orleans, the first step is
the removal of the bedding, clothing
and cushions and other cloth fabrics to
the quarantine shed. Here they are
hung on a framework consisting of a
series of racks suspended from a long
car running on track and so arranged
that when the racks are filled the
whole thing may be run inside one of
the three great disinfecting cylinders
with which the station is equipped.
These cylinders are enormous steel
boilers fifty feet in length by eight feet
in diameter and fitted inside with con-
tinuous coils of steam pipe. The cylin-
ders are covered with asbestus and
swathed in felt, and when the cylinder
caps are on they are alright When
the clothing has been placed inside and
the cylinders closed, dry heat is forced
through the pipes at a temperature of
$50 degrees, and this is followed by
moist heat raised to a temperature of
$50 degrees. The pressure of from six
to eight pounds put upon this steam
heat is sufficient to force it through
heavy mattresses or bundles of cloth
ing.
After a period which varies from
thirty minutes to an hour the cylinders
are opened, the racks are run out, and
the rapid evaporation which follows
causes the clothing to dry almost i'm

Belts and sashes of Persian ribbon
are very fashionable just at present
and figure on most of the dressy gowns.
The Persian ribbons come i'll all widths
and in all degrees of gorgeousness.
They are not only used for sashes, but,
joined together by lines of feather
stitching. they are made into most chic
waists and petticoats, and they also
figure in the tea gowns which English
women have made so popular among
us. They are also cut up to make tiny
boleros, and the irregular applications
are feature of every smart gown.
Single large orchids are to be seen
on separate waists. The orchid serves
to fasten the bolero or ichu with
which the waist is trimmed. These
waists are used for theater and inform
al dinner occasions.
The toque shown in the cut is of
rough white felt arranged in five folds
and held down by two wide, short
straps of velvet A black and white
plaid scarf forms the sole trimming.
This is knotted carelessly around the
brim and falls over the hair in the

YOKOHAMA BY NIGHT.

Lantern Illumination Makes the City
Akin to Fairyland.
A row of paper lanterns in the black
shadow of a wall is the first impress
sion the newly arrived traveller has of
Yokohama as he steps from his sam
PAM on to the wharf at night.
The lanterns hang low and almost
motionless but at the word ''rickshaw"
they begin to sway, and with Il silent,
almost rhythmical movement they
come rushing toward him. A moment
later he discovers that each lantern is
attached to rickshaw, which offers
for less than half a yen an hour to CON
vey him anywhere his fancy may lead
him. But go where he will the lantern
is always there, dangling and swaying
and dimly flashing.
The lantern on the rickshaw is a
characteristic detail of the night pic
ture of Yokohama. 1t is a series of
brilliant dashes of color under a cloud
less, starlit sky, famed by Il soft
breeze which seems half ofthe sea and
half of the tropics, with smiling, doll
like people gliding about everywhere
1t hardly seems real. 1t isn't fairyland
exactly. because fairies are not sup
posed to be always as picturesque as
are these Japanese. Certain it is that
few things anywhere in the round
world can be more beautiful than Ian.

AS the occidental crosses the bridge
over the canal from the foreign quar-
ter and enters the native city he sees
a bewilderinS maze of lights. Through
out Yokohama gas lamp posts are few
and far between, fact which makes
the lantern illumination all the more
conspicuous. They are not hung at reg
ular heights or intervals, but make 6

they are worn with a short petticoat
or slip. The walking or shopping
length of skirt is becoming more and
more popular. On the other hand,
trains on reception and indoor gowns
are becoming much longer. The key
note of appropriateness has been
struck, and it is not considered smart
to see a reception length of gown in
the shopping district.
The smart coat in the illustration is

and tiny silver buttons. The front is
double breasted and has a wide collar
which extends well over the shout

are trimmed with two rows of silver
buttons. The hat worn with this is of
pale gray felt trimmed with twist of

1t goes without saying that as re-
suit of this trimming the skirt mate

that many of the skirts are made of
ordinary dress goods lined with silk.

hint in the matter of borrowing money
Osborne was in the publishing bust
ness, a man of comfortable means and
a well regulated life. He had bought
several short stories from Haven be-
fore the latter had taken the editorship
of the magazine and had expressed
hearty appreciation of the young mans
ability.
But Haven didn't wish to borrow
money of Osborne. In the deepest parts
of his mind he knew better More su-
perficially, he was aware that such
proceeding would be bad introduction
to a business scheme of some magni-
tude which he desired to propose to Os-
borne when it should be thoroughly
worked up in his own intellect.
If he had not been so burdened with
troubles, the perfecting of this scheme
would have been, in Ravens opinion,
an easy matter; but he had worried so
much about his phantom salary and his
too real expenses that it had seemed
impossible for him to pull his mind to-
gether. Moreover, he was anxious on
account of the young lady already men,
toned. She and her mother were liv-
ing upon a small income, which from
certain causes was in danger of being
reduced. Haven opened every letter
from his sweetheart with fear and
trembling, thinking that it would give
him the news that the blow which
he was wholly unable to parry had
really fallen. There was no reason to
dread actual calamity; they would still
have enough to carry them along until
he should be able to take the burden of
their needs upon his willing shoulders
Still the prospect of any sorrow for
Lottie Palmer was misery for Haven.
