The Seasons colorlnns.

In the seasons colorings valiant at.
tempts are made to adapt descriptive
titles, such as cherry brandy, rose,
Malmsey, grape mauve, tilleul, lime
green. The narrow ribbed velvets
and velveteens, tone on tone, are pro-
ductlve of the most enchanting lights
and shades, which serve TO immeasur-
ably enhance all the plume, prune, au.
berglne and bronze green tints, to-
gether with the many neutral and
novel shades of gray, although really
the most puzzling of all to cope with
is the gamut OF rose dyes. In many in
stances inspiration has been CLEANED
from the inside oaa fruit, such as the
deep, rich juice Of the tomato, the
flesh pink of a muskmelon, or the
seed part Of green fig. One particu.
larly weird tone is only comparable
to begonia, as there is a strong dash
Of yellow in Its composition, while an
other is Of the tenderest La France
rose suggestion.

ely Cathedral, Showing the West
Front.

Abbot Simeon just after the conquest.
fell as the monks were returning from
the church to their dormitory. Alan
is represented in the old records as
being at first perplexed and over
whelmed. not knowing which way to
turn himself or what to do for the
reparation Of such a ruin; but, taking
courage and putting his whole trust in
God, he set his hand to the work,
clearing the spot with all possible
speed and with much labor and ex,
pense. He then measured out eight
positions in which the eight stone
columns were TO stand supporting the
new campanile. These spots he caused
to be dug out and examined until he
had found the solid rock. Alan's main
object was to build up something that
should be less likely TO fall than the
traditional center tower borne up by
four arches. Cupolas Of the east. as
well as towers of the west were for
merly supported by four arches, and
80 could have no greater span than the
four limbs gave. The popularity OF
the Ely octagon is that the central
space is far wider than any of the
four limbs, which, from other points
of view. look so vast, but sink into
mere adiuncts to the great central
space.
