for Evening Dress.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Midwinter has
not arrived without bringing some inter
esting novelties In fashion 70 we'll dressed
men. Nothing so novel as the dark blue
chinchllla coat has come from London IN
years. All that are now to be seen on
Fifth avenue come directly from London.
as New York tailors have not yet begun 70
turn them out.
Tit color is in the first place quite un.
usual. Blu overcoats have not been popu.
lar since the days Of the Meltons. which
have again begun to be in style and will
probably be altogether moc;su py next
year. This dark blue chinchilla cloth is
made up in a single-breasted coat with
bone buttons that outline the figure with
out fitting 1t too closely. The back is made
rather loose and a belt holds the excessive
width in two folds. The long sleeves have
cuffs of the same material and the pockets
are supplied with flaps. The coat comes 10
the shoe tops. Broad collars with peaked
revers finish the coat.
There is another fashion which has lust
struck New York with particular force. IL
Is net altogether new, as there were in
timations a year or two ago that New York
might follow the lead OF London in this
particular and take to wearing hats several
times too large for II. New Workers. are
likely to shy at any such decided pc
culiarity In dress for a while, and IL took
tentative efforts for two years to get the
fashion well settled.
IT'S the mode all right now" said the
head salesman in a hat shop opposite the
new public library. and it's an amusing
thing to hear my old customers telling me
their sizes nowadays and making them out
about two numbers bigger than they really
are. They seem for some reason to be
ashamed Of deferring to a style which re-
quires them to wear a hat two sizes too
large for them just to be in the style. So
they think they're fooling me when they
mention a number two sizes larger than
they really wear.
Its a curious thing to observe the hold
such a fashion may take on one, but it is
a fact that a man with a hat to fit him
properly does not look in the least bit
smart. Yet 1t is exclusively a young mans
fashion. i don't know that this new style

We had the money. That is the way we
managed with the garden. For the first
few years we rented out the ground ND to
our very back steps for n few bushels OF
potatoes and fresh vegetables. Then az
our work kept on and our savings Increased
We rented less ot the land reserving a
wide strip for a back ward and a few
flowers and vegetables that mother and 1
managed 10 work ourselves.
When at last we made the last payment
on the place and had the deed safe in our
hands we began 20 think OF other com
forts. Next after having the garden laid
off and properly cultivated came the buy
Ing Of a few hens. The next year we both
began to wish for a COW. She was not a
very expensive COW, because we hadn't the
price for a pedigreed animal. but mother
being accustomed 20 COWS all her young
life was sure this one would be a good
mixer II she had the right treatment with
her first calf.
Having a COW and chickens. OF course
We no longer rent our little field. Each
year we plant one-half Of It. leaving the
other half for the COW to pasture on and
the chickens to run in. We raise all the
eggs we use aud every week or so have a
dozen or more to sell. Mother manages IL

she gave up her mending for the Iaund-
dry more than two years ago. Her eyes
were falling ard the old manager loft. As
my shirtwaist business gives us a steady
income, l persuaded her to devote her
time to caring for the place.
III we had remained I'm town / dare say
We could have made Just as good shirt
waists. but certainly we would not nave
had as good health, nor been able to buy
ourselves a home. We often have offers
OF work from other shops, but always re-
fuse. l have come to know the people who
employ me and they know me and my
work.
Il do not have to give a reference nor
and security for the materials. They ship
me the materials by express and when
the waists are ready | return them I'm the
same way. l don't go to town once a
month, and when l do it is more from
sense Of duty than because l either want
to or have to.
Now that we have become known To

getting work for several friends. There
is plenty OF such work to be had In New
York and at fair prices once you have
proved yourself competent and reliable.
III We had started out at hand sewing
when we first came 20 New York we
wouldn't have had half as hard a time as
we did. That is the trouble with so MANY
unframed women who come to get work.
