With black costumes there are straight garnitures of embroidered net that cover the front of the waist and then fall straight in panel or stole ef- feet down the front of the gown. The latest necklaces brought from the far East resemble flexible snakes They are of antique or green gold finished metal, and have eyes and | tongue of imitation rubies, sapphires and emeralds.
 One of the most conspicuous features of afternoon gowns is their fur trim
 mings and the little heads, paws and tails of the animals are being employ ed as we'll as the usual bands The semi-decollete frock, about which Fashion was undecided last win ter, is now firmly established as the correct compromise between street and full evening dress. It goes with the picture hat
 Black satin gowns are smart this season, but they are yelled with tunics of embroidered net or chiffon, covered with a jersey1ike bodice of heavy enn-
 broidery-net and jet combined or silk l with jet.
 All-black hats continue to contribute to the sombreness of the dark cos tumes of the winter. When bright colored hats are worn they are almost invariably toned down with a toucI of gray or black.
 Neck ornaments and chains have sell dom been more to the fore than at the
 present time, and they are by nc
 means confined to evening wear though they are perhaps seen at their best with the decol1ete dress. A narrow frill of sheer lawn or ml1l | which may itself be finished with lace 1 is seen as finish on some of the coal sleeves. It extends around one wrist and along the outer seam of the sleeve two-t thirds of the waysto the other The rich moire silks are being made iup into very smart coats which are | worn with skirts of the same color l and which are not removed, even fol 1 luncheon. These coats are fastened below the waist line and have revers | of fur. ~
 Blue and lavender bugles and beads are used for embroidering net and lace crepe de chin and liberty silk. A 1 chiffon of one color is dropped undel | a net of the other color, and tulle. em- l broidered with the bugles, is embroid cred over both.
 Buckles made of gold and silver
 braid are not only smart, but are fal | less expensive than many other articles ficult to make and a, little ingenuity
 cn the part of the needlewoman vii
 result in a quite distinctive buckle l Turquoise or coral beads, quantities of them massed together, are very smart on black and white net, tht

Tiny Work.

Mark Scallot. blacksmith, in 157S, in the twentieth year of Queen Eliza beth's reign, made a lock consisting of eighteen pieces of steel, iron and brass, with a hollow key to it, that al- together weighed but one grain of gold. He also made a gold chain, com posed of forty-three links, which he fastened to the lock and key. In the presence of the queen he put the chain about the neck of a flea, which drew 1t with ease, after which he put the lock and key, fiea and chain into a pair of scales, and they together weighed but one grain and half. This is vouched for by an old writer.

SOME DANGERS
 FROM HIGH PRICES

K An interesting document on the present cost of living appears in the January American Magazine. It is written by Elizabeth Hewes, and is a record of her personal observation. She writes:
 Every one is talking high prices. But my topic is different. wish to talk not on the high prices them selves, but on their dangers, the chief dangers being, of course. to that trunk class of a nation, the small sal aried man, the clerk, the shop-girl. this class in two ways first, they are tending to force them down rather than np in the social scale; second, they are putting them to such strees that they are tending to become an underfed class, under-nourished, and certainly the danger of having the great trunk class of nation under nourished cannot be overrated.
 Well, I don't pretend to know the causes of high prices, but this do know; that am today paying cents more for my steak, z cents more for eggs,7 cents more for butter than was last year, that a better class of people than heretofore is beginning to try and evade the compulsory education law, and that certain shop-girls who know have reduced their lunches from chicken on toast with rice bord- CT to an eclair and a cup of coffee. In other words, our great, prosperous (?)s country stands at the parting of the ways. A little more, and you will have the trunk class of America an underfed class being slowly but surely forced down in the social scale. The laboring man.. the miner, the ser want girl (who are being paid more) will force their children up into the clerk class only to have their clil- dren stick there or return to them This would no longer be American
 .'This that I say is true, and it seems to me merits the attention of all thoughtful Americans who care for their country"

Sir William Harcourt once told me that he had dined out every night for a whole week in advance of his inVi- tation. He discovered his mistake only on the last night, wben on going to dine with some people who gave long invitations and large dinners he found them alone. After a very pleasant evening he thanked them for asking him in so friendly a manner, where upon they explained that the invitation had been for a week later, but that they had been only too delighted at his mistake. On hearing this Sir Will liam looked at his engagement book and discovered that this was the last of number of invitations which he had anticipated by a week.

space available for exhibition purposes to be had in any part of the building at present, and there is a long waiting list of manufacturers, This situation
 is indeed a striking commentary on the growth of the industry when it is realized that at the first automobile show in this country in 1900 there were only sixty exhibitors. The annual au-s tomobile shows in New York and other large cities are coming to rank with the horse shows as events of interest to investors as we'll as society people and pleasure seekers. Indeed the horse has had to look to his laurels already, for the auto shows of last season attracted quite as much atten- tion as the equine exhibitions The spacious Garden has been entirely re- decorated for the coming automobile show and presents a scene of rare

5 SEAL HUNTING.
Eskimo Methods In Dealing With the
 Wary Creatures.

Eskimo Methods In Dealing With che
 Wary Creatures.
 Writing of far northern hunting methods. Harry Whitney thus de- scribes in Outing how Eskimos kill the wary seal:
 Many seals were seen on the fresh made ice, and Eiseeyou, my head man, expressed desire that I take charge of his dog team while he stalked some of them. Seals are extremely shy, and great caution must be practiced in ap- preaching them The Eskimos use a blind in the form of a miniature sledge, about eighteen inches in length by six in width, with bearskins tackled on the runners. Fore and aft are two upright crotched sticks. upon which the rife rests and to which it is lash ed. On the front of the sledge cross bar sustains two long perpendicular sticks, over which a piece of white cloth is stretched, or when that is not attainable hareskin is substituted. Through hole in this cloth screen the muEzie of the rife protrudes.
 Holding his blind before him, he was enabled to walk within 300 or 400 yards of a seal without startling it. Then he dropped on his hands and knees and pushed the little sledge be- fore him. Thus hidden behind the cloth screen, which so blended with the ice as to arouse in the seal no sus- picion of danger, he approached with in fifty yards before shooting. Seals always lie close to their holes, and it is necessary to hit them in the head or under the shoulder and have the bullet penetrate the, heart and kill them instantly; otherwise they will flop into the hole and sink before it is possible to reach them"

 Notwithstanding it's wide adoption, municipal government by commission is yet too young to have proved itself a panacea for all of the evils of Ame erican civic rule. The new charter of Colorado Springs, however, gives promise of a solution of some of the more serious difficulties encountered by the two earlier experiments in Texas and Iowa.

How People Differ.

Luther Burbank, at the Cactus
dinner that he recently give in Santa
Rosa, said:
AS we all see. the fruit of the
cactus is not bad. Some people,
though, would turn from the cactus
with horror. Tastes differ. One man,
such a man as myself, for instance,
finding a single wife 100 many,
remains unmarried. Another man.
like Cetewayo, finds a thousand wives
scarcely enough.
When Wolseley conquered Cete-
wayo, he took nearly all his wives
away from him. l believe he left the
monarch only half-dozen or there
abouts. Cetewayo, day after day,
sent piteous messages to Wolseley,
pleading for the rest of his wives,
but the British soldier refused stern
ly. When Wolseley came to leave
the country, Cetewayo, in despera-
ton, sent this message to him:
If you will not send me any more
wives, will you not be gentleman
enough to exchange the six l have
for six Others"
