Stylish Gloves.

The American woman, Notwithstanding
she Is generally understood to be the best
dressed woman in the world. is being crit
icised by her foreign cousin for one thing
or another. The latest accusation is
that the American woman wears her
gloves too small
'They are so much too small at
times writes Partisan critic, that the
glove fingers scarcely cover two-thirds of
madame's finger, and the top button is
near the palm of her hand instead of at
the wrist line
Whereas it is none of this critics busi-
ness how Americans wear their gloves, it
is an awkward thing to see lad es from
any country who wear gloves that are
too small

square corners being filled in with the
plain. The effect is really much hand
somer than may be imagined from the
description. Some of the plain parts are
just as smooth as satin; others are scat
tered with dots ranging in s:Ze from pin
dots to those large a pea. The de-
signs include the rose and the polyanthus
conve ntianalized. Natural lilies, ferns and
lilies of the valley wander in effective
patterns over some cloths.
For trimming fancy expensive linens
Siavian lace or mosaic work. as 1t is
called, is used. and a German lace Of the
Arabe shade decorates pieces in a cheaper
quality. Drawn work never goes out OF
fashion, and much of this fancy stitch
ing is combined with lace In trimming
cloths and doilies.

blue ostrich plumes pointing in every
direction of the compass. Empire shawls
are proving themselves a novel trimming
for cloth gowns, and on a smart suit
seen recently parts of an oriental shawl
were used for the waistcoat- and cuffs on
the chic little coat, and the skirt was of
the cashmere, banded with plain green
empire broadcloth. So much in demand
are these old-time wraps that Parisians
who have recognizable ancestors as far
back as the empire days are ransacking

The last whimsicality in this direction is
of the Huguenot shape, with the high,
pot patterned crown and slightly curled,
narrow brim with which we have become
familiar in the picture Of the "Huguenot
Lovers" The bizarre part of the cha
peau appears in the crown covering,
which is accomplished by the aid of a
section of an old empire cashmere shawl
whose rich red, blue and creamy white
have become delightfully."- mellowed by
time. Circling the crown is a band OF
royal blue velvet caught with large
square buckle placed directly in front.

Fashions in Linens.

New table linens. both in daInask and
the more fancy furnishings, show a
greater variety of novel features and de-

seasons past.
The latest damask tablecloths no longer
display a scattered design outlined by a
heavy border, but have circular patterns
that are a distinct departure from any
thing used before.

Loud Fashions in Favor.
One of the foremost milliners here in
the gay capital makes the prophecy that
no well-dressed woman can afford to
be fashionable this winter" What one
should gather from this statement Is that
unless a woman follows-her individual
leadings in dress she Is doomed to look
like the enameled women of the stage

another tint that has countless admirers
especially among dark women with splen-

Winter Costumes.
A smart black broadc!oth is made with
habit back and plain skirt exquisitely
tailored. The jacket is tight fitting in
the back and is buttoned with horn but
tons down the front. The collar is a
dull green suede, and the cuffs are of
silk. The hat is black hat, narrow
in the front, with an immense black rib
bon bow upon the back.
A beautiful suit is in brown cloth, with
a skirt that slightly trains. 1t Is trim

Japanese Effects.
There is still much to be said on the
subject of Japanese fashions, for Paris
iennes are still faithful to the oriental
craze. The mode is used with good eff
feet in costume Of dark gray cloth in
tend d for automob!ling. The skirt and
bodice are cut in one piece and set with a
simple yoke of embroidered batiste. while
tn japanese sleeves fall over under
sleeves OF batiste with detachable cuffs
of lace and linen. Over the dress is worn
very handsome coat of invisible stripe
rancy worsted, simply designed, but eX-
tremely smart in effect.
The sleeves of the new coat. especially
for automibiling. are growing larger,
which is neceSsitated by the Increase d

law is not needed. Yet law is often
useful for a time to awaken public sem
timent and to call attention to the evil.
The final recourse is always greater
knowledge and enlightenment. The best
laws of this nature, and for the regu-
lation of spraying and the like, are
probably those which are not manda-
tory, but which provide a protection or
legal remedy in case any person con-
siders himself to be endangered or In
jured by the perverseness or negligence
of another; and it is a question IL the
common law does not provide ample
redress for such grievances. There are
instances, too, in which it may be wise
to make a general effort to stamp out
a pest when it first obtains foothold
in America, but this is very different
matter from the endeavor to control
the spread Of insects and fungi between
the different parts Of the country. The
fact is that the insects and diseases
are beyond the reach Of legislative flats,
and it is time the fact were fully
learned"
Il
Much more along this line could be
quoted, but this Is enough to show the
culturist on these matters. Every
thoughtful, well-informed fruit grower,
whether he fully agrees with Prof. Bal
ley or not, will be able to make these
deductions: Fruit pests are here and
all the laws we have or may make will
not eradicate them nor prevent their
ultimate spread into all sections which
are congenial to their development.
Other pests will come in spite of our
laws, for we may not know that they
are pests or at least serious ones, till
1t Is too late to stamp them out. Bailey
says on this point: There are also
insurmountable difficulties in the en-
forcement Of laws designed to control
the spread Of noxious insects and fungi,
because 1t is practically impossible to
detect the eggs Of insects or spores of
fungi upon a large number of plants,
and because there are SO many natural

All fads and fancies die hard. May
be it is we'll that they do, for con-
servatism is a kind Of safety valve to
keep us from recklessly running into
the new and untried. One of the fan
cies that seems not to have died with
many good people is the notion that If
you mulch your trees while the ground
is frozen they will bloom later in the
spring. But will they? Experiments
again and again have proven the fall
lacy Of this common notion. This fall
lacy arises from a process Of false rea-
soning, and that is, that tree does
not begin to grow and leave out and
bloom in the spring till water surround
ing the roots ladened with nutrition
enters through the root hairs and flows
up into the body and limbs to start
growth This conception grows out of
