A point of special note in reference
to the new millinery IS the extreme
length of the plumes seen on many
of the dressier styles Of hats. Some
are almost two feet in length and
made to look longer by the manner in
which they are placed on the hat.
Instead of being cU-'ed around the lat

thus showing off to full length. Some
are ostrich, although fancy effects are
seen.
AS to colors, white and black will
be strong factors in the situation but
the other shades will not be neglected.
Brown in the entire range will be used,
while green and blue effects will be
seen, also certain shades of red, par
ticularly of the raspberry order. A
new shade also will be introduced
known as princess blue, which is sim

The Jungfrau railway in Switzer-
land bristles with interest for a dis
corning mind, and now at the height
of the Swiss season hundreds of tour
lists are able to enjoy heroic mountain
scenery amidst the peaks of the Alps
which were. impossible before the
Jungfrau was opened just a year ago.
The new station at Eismeer, 10000
feet above sea-level, is able to boast
the highest railroad station in Europe
and the highest tunnel station in the
world.
The protector OF this remarkable
mountain tunnel and railway, Herr
Guyer-Zeller, of Zurich, was not an
engineer, but a financier. The story
goes that he was strolling down the
mountain path that leads from the
Schilthorn to Murren, and that in
course of it, with the Jungfrau stead
lily in front Of him, the inspiration
came to scale it with a railway. Sew
eral years elapsed before the bold idea
took concrete shape. All sorts of
objections and scruples were raised.
Herr Zeler had first to satisfy the
Swiss authorities that no evil coase-
quences would ensue to passengers by
being carried 5000 feet upwards In q

eventually to be six miles long, and
for most of the distance runs very
near one or other of the outer faces OF
the mountains. The tunnel stations
are formed by one or more galleries,
hewn out of rock, and give far view
of mountain and valley, snow and
glacier. The line continues along the
great wall northwest of the Eiger I'm.
til we'll underneath the Mittellegi
glacier. There are Two stations in the
magnificent Eiger precipices. The
first is Rothstock, $500 feeD. Roth
stock is less than couple of miles
from the rail-hesd, and it is an easy
walk from here t., the bold crag OF the
Eiger Rothstock (S,754 feet, which
commands a mag .lificent panorama OF
the Eiger, the Monch, and the jung

openings have been cut through to the

With the coming Of cooler days one
must pick the dresses which will be
in harmony with the change, and moth
ing Is finer than the little shocked
frocks of alpaca for young girls. They
not only can be worn for the end Of
the summer season, but later on for
school. Alpaca is also much to be
commended for the making of dresses
for misses wear, as they are not only
serviceable but smart. In fact, 1t
will be distinctly wise IL for the the
majority of the young folks new
gowns, the chosen materials are al
paca, covert coating, serve or voille,
as then they will do good service right
up to the time when winter clothes
and furs become a necessity.
With the younger girls it is coming
more and more to be the custom to
wear the lighter washable materials
all the year, the needed warmth be-
ing supplied by the extra flannel I'M
dergarments. And the dress of dec
orative design is just as necessary for
the seven-year-old as for the 17-year-
old miss. But for both the choice
may well fall upon white muslin or
fine pique trimmed with the broderie
anglaise, which as it manages to com
bine daintiness and durability In the
most satisfactory fashion, is likely to
go on enjoying the favor Of fashion
and her followers for many long
day to come. In the case Of the little
damsel of seven, the design of the
sketch may be followed to advantage,
the broderie which forms that very
effective plastron and panel being
outlined with little killed frillings OF
the muslin, while folued belt OF soft
blush rose pink satin may be passed
underneath so that it may give fas-
cinating suggestion of it's presence
through the semi-transparency of the
brodery in front, though it comes into
fuller prominence at the sides.
Sweet II, IA her turn, might really
with lust a few notifications, adapt
the same design to her own use, the
broderie panel being, of course. in
her case, so graduated as to taper at
the waist and widen out again at the
skirt: while a transparent yoke and
collar band of Valenciennes lace and
a foam OF frlls in the same soft lace
as a finish to the elbow sleeves, may
also be suggested, while furthermore
it would be advisable-and distinctly

couple of hours. Then there was the
aesthetic objection that the mountain
scenery would be disfgured; but this
was set at rest by the promise to run
the railway in tunnels all the way,
and hide even the stations away inside
the mountains. At last Herr Zeller
secured his concession, on December
81, 1894. 1t stipulated, among other
things, that persons climbing to the
summit on foot should have free ac-
cess to all parts of it; and that the
company should spend 100000 francs
on a permanent observatory at the
Jungfrau station, for meteorological,
tellural and other physical researches,
and contribute an extra thousand
francs month towards its expenses.
At last, also, the great financial prob
lem was solved, and the works were
begun in 1897.
Most Swiss visitors know that fine
crest of rocks dotted with green pas
lures which links the Eiger Alp with
the Wengern. 1t is one of the pleasant
sights in the neighborhood of Grindel-

view of it at the station of Little
