GiIded Laces.

A method has recently been invented
of depositing a metal coating electrical
" on laces and other fine fabrics. The
process Is Still kept a secret, but II
turns out the most surprising results,
In effect changing the tissues exposed
into the daintiest fabrics of gold, silver
or bronze. The utility Of the metalllzed
laces covers various fields. They serve
for table ornamentatlon and for center
pieces: architects use them In mural
decorations; in applications on uphoi'
stery and for the hangings Of panels In
salons, boudoirs and rich dining halls
The makers Of fine furniture incrust
wood with them in the manufacture oil
screens and on surfaces Of any Kind
plain or curved. They are also used
with striking effect In ecclesiastical
vestments and in ball and evening
dresses. Rich as they are In appear
ance and unparalleled In delicacy and
beauty they are very cheap. Anybody
can afford them, and the extent of thelI
use ia costuming bids fair to be very
great France discovered and Is de
veloping the industry.

Japan's Emperor.

Describing the personal appearance
Of MutsuhitO, the emperor of Japan,
recent writer says: "On this occasion
his majesty walked, or seemed to walk,
with a slight stoop. On other occasions
when in his carriage or on horseback
the stoop was not noticeable. Yet 1T in
nowise impaired the dignity OF his
carriage. His hair is coarse and black
as the name % an OrlOff horse, except
ing a tinge of gray at the temples, and
Is brushed well up from his forehead.
His nose large, the nostrils full, the
lips thick without being sensuous and
the under jaw heavy, convey an i'm
preston of iron determination and te-
nacity of purpose. He wears a heavy
mustache and thin chin whiskers. Last,
but not least, were the eyes, lustrOus,
dark, intelligent and Of piercing keen
ness.
"Those eyes peered forth through
almond Sits from under high threat
ening brow. In their swiftly changing
expression they were at once an index
and a revelation Of the personality
shining through them.
