Washington on a Rainy Day

To the tourist in city rainy day is a thing of execraticn yet one of the most Interesting sights at Wash ington is missed unless there is rain. Not long ago stood on the west front of the. capitol looking toward the treasury and the Washington monument. 8 mile away. Darkness was just coming down upon the city and a dreary drizzle of rain was soak ing everything; the streets were not yet lit up by the electric lamps and the fog that was settling down upon the city was sweeping over the high est roofs and winding like a somber pail about the great monument down by the tidal basin of the Potomac. Some of the larger office buildings glared, Argus-eyed, through the gath ering rnists. and here and there a great variegated electric sign lit up the sky. Pennsylvania avenue. com  monly known as the avenue, stretches straight away from the capitol to the treasury, and dots of lights In the stores marked it's course Just at that moment a beautiful sight presented it. self; far away down the avenue there was a sputter of light, then a flash and two lines of arc lamps swept in a dazzle from one end of the street to the other; the dripping trees below the capitol sparkled in places where the lights shone upon them as if their leaves were hung with jewels; and all up and down the avenue the wa ter that had gathered on the asphalt paving shone and twisted like ser pents of silver. Wherever @ wet sur face caught gleam of light a silver reflection was thrown back. It Is a pleasing sight thus to watch Q citys streets flash into electric brightness when the rain has polished almost ev- cry surface, and the tourist who has spent dreary day indoors will be well repaid by making his way to the capitol just before the lights are turn ed on.-Pathfinder.

NEW FASHIONS
 NOW DECLARED
Paris Models Described Popular Colors-New
 Sleeve Styie.

The fashions are now being declared. On Monday last late autumn fashions and also examples of those for early winter wear were shown in Paris, whence they will slowly emerge, us- ually in more or less modified form, in this country. By a strict agreement the Parisian modlstes do not exhibit their advance models to any one before August 20. There Is no doubt, however, that despite whatever attempted changes there may be of a radical ma ture, these will obtain favor slowly un- less they are comfortable and becom- ing as well as new. In sleeves the wrinkled mousquetaire will be much in evidence, for time at least, on new gowns, and the coats for cold weather will have full-length sleeves, and these will find favor, as they are sensible and the only comfortable mode whose biting winds rage. No matter what the size of ones huff, there is more or less exposure of the wrists and conse- qtent chill with the three-quarter or half-length sleeve For warm weather they are ideal, cool, and also pretty, SD they will probably come in again for next spring and summer. The new plIn and purple shades are to be the leading colors for some weeks to come, but it will not be long before they will be common, and something else will take their place in the wardrobes of the modish world. Many of the plum shades are well suited to the average complexion among both the younger and the older women. Browns will be worn in all shades, but it is to be hoped that better taste will be shown in tho future than in the past in adopt ing the various shades, for no color is more trying when it is not carefully selected to harmonize with one's color ing. The dominant shade of the hair should be matched; II may be in a lighter hue, but reddish brown should not be worn with golden or wood- brown hair. The yellowish browns for golden brown hair, clear dull wood browns for lifeless brown hair, and so on through the list, should be the rule.

suit or separate blouses, is in direct ratio to the simplicity of the skirts.
 The mousquetaire, perhaps more than any other sleeve, is difficult to shape properly and Is only suitable for a well-formed arm.
 For the suit coat the correct sleeve is three-quarter length, with close fitting cuff, or full-length, made and finished in the regulation manner.
 One of the attractive features of the season anent the separate waist will be the velvet or heavy broadcloth skirt topped with a waist of sheer material.
 The elastic belts studded with beads, jewels or cut steel are so satisfactory that undoubtedly they will remain, as they are now, in the front rank of popularity.
 Shocking is gradually returning to faor, although it is not very practical for washable materials, but for which fabrics as may be dry-eleaned satis- factorily it is always pretty.
