trimmings, and the use Of the long or
short tunic in many new forms.
The surplice and the fichu style for
the waists is carried out in every sort
Of gown, from the plain linen or en-
broidered one to the yelled evening
gown. The point of crossing, in either
case, Is arranged well toward the belt,
which allows an opportunity for con-
siderable elaboration In front trim
ming, Trimming bands are being ap-
piled In various pointed effects, since
the point is the keynote Of all trim
ming motifs this season.
Many Of the newest models in lin
gerle gowns as well as In the evening
costumes are trimmed In q manner to
suggest the bolero, which is gaining SC
rapidly in favor again. On the dpessy
gowns fringe is sometimes used to fin
ish the edge Of the trimming, while
on the simple models hand embroid
cry and bead work are used to supple
ment the bolero Of lace insertion.
A novel feature Of few Of the lat
est lingerie gowns is the use Of thu
black tunic Of cotton net, or the In

Iextent than ever before this spring,
The long coat is bound to he in demand
for wear with the summer silks and
lingerie gowns. The full length coat
fashioned in the straight line effects,
made up In serges for the utility gar
ment, and In silk or satin for the
dressier models, is easily in the lead,
although before the end Of the season
1t Is expected that the tendency to
shorten the suit coats will make itself
felt in the odd coats also. Particularly
clever are the white serge coats, with
the black hairlne stripe. One OF these
cut with the popular raglan sleeve and
having a broad belt high across the
back, to give a certain Empire effect,
had large, black satin lined hood col
lar and was trimmed with large metal
buttons on the cuffs and collar.
For early spring wear there Is moth
ing equal to the simple little foulard
gown. These are being shown made ur
with band trimmings Of plain satin
or more elaborntely yelled with mar
Iquisettes or voiles. The new features
Of the simpler frocks may be summed
up as, the shortened waist line, loni
shoulder effects acquired by collars

rows OF black Chantilly about four
inches wide set in about the bottom
Of the skirt. A tunic Of black net
covering, the lower part Of the waist
and the upper part Of the skirt was
edged with tiny black balls, and black
satin belt completed the chic effect.
Another gown In which this idea
was charmingly used was Of white lace
over a pink slip. A wide hounce Of
black net onto which was applied a
band OF japanese embroidery, in white,
fell from beneath tho overdress Of lace,
which thus simulated n tunic. The
edge OF this was also trimmed with
the ball fringe, in white
A touch of color Is seen on most OF
these lingerie models, with very APP
parent preference for the bit OF black.
Much ingenuity Is exercised in cater
ing to this foible of fashion, and de-
lightfully unique Is the result many
times. Just the right character was
given to q baby Irish lace robe by the
inch-wide black velvet ribbon caught
beneath the scallops Of the last row OF
lace about the bottom Of the skirt, and
the ribbon of narrower width, laced
through slides at the waist to tie In a
long bow ut the left Of tho back.

curves The snug hip aud bust, and
tho narrow shoulder, with only the
waist line underlined, aids In the ac-
compllshments Of this result in these
seven-eighths fitting garments. Some
times the waist line is made quite
bit higher than usual, either by means
Of the cut Itself, or through some sort
OF trimming, The full length coat
sleeves are used exclusively on the
tailored models, mounted with plain
head. In the more drossy styles Of

been discussed I'm the city since the
result of the last meeting was made
known, and the controversy has wax
ed exceedingly warm.
The failure of the list of appointees
presented by Mayor Dodge to receive
confirmation was said to be due to the

as saying that Misunderstanding ex-

Little Boy Grizzly.

Enos A. Mills, writing of his adj
ventures with pet bear known as
Little Boy Grizzly. says: "He and
| had few foot races, and usually. in
order to give me better chance. we
ran downhll. In a 200 yard dash he
usually paused three or four times and
waited for me to catch up. and | was
not a slow biped either. The grizzly,
though apparently awkward and lum'
berly. is one of the most agile of beasts.
l constantly marveled at Grlzzly's
lightness of touch or the dizziness of
movement OF his forepaws. With but
one claw touching it he could slide a
coin back and forth on the floor more
rapidly and lightly than | could. He
would slide an eggshell swiftly along
without breaking it. Yet by using one
paw he would without effort overturn
rocks that were heavier than himself"

The remuneration of postal clerks in
Russia includes emoluments which do
not appear in the form of money They
are furnished quarters. heat and light

and medicine for themselves and their
families. In cities like Moscow a large
hospital is maintained for the conven
fence of postal clerks and carriers
Their children are admitted to the
schools free of charge, which in Russia
is quite an item of expense. especially
in preparatory schools for colleges. to

the wealthy only are admitted. The
pay of clerks and carriers ranges from
$3.50 TO SIS per month. They may,
