It la claimed by n good ninny people that tlio "gist" of n woman'a letter Is mora apt to lio In the stficrlpt (without which h)io 1h opiilnrly suppOHed to consider no teller complete) than anywhere else. Tlio author of "In a Club Corner" tell several stnrlc which Keen to Indicate that there have been occasion on which inember of the utroiiger Hex have made iimj of the post script to convey the most Important pari of the nieshiiKe. He says: Aspynaineil l'almer, Nent by Sir Heiirv Clinton, the IlrltlHlicounnaiider, had been detected furtively collecting information of the force and condition of the (Hist at 1'eekH.klll, and had undergone it military trial. A vessel of wnr came up tlio Hudson li nil haste, nnd lauded a Hag of truce at Vei plniick'a point, by which n tuesHiiKe was transmitted to Putnam from Clinton, claiming the said l'almer aa it lieutenant In the British xervico. Putnam replied. "Headquarter, "th AuKiist, 177". Kd ward Palmer, an olllcer In the enemy's service, wan taken a a npy lurklag within our Hues.

"N. D.-HI wife Ih dead."

New England stood out long against Christmas and New Year'a alike, and her writers curious in such lore hnve told us how cautiously her most daring spirits first ventured on tlio innovation. The Chinese New Year opens with soma unpleasant features. Every tradesman has to pay all he owe. or surrender his proper ty, nud Hometimes his liberty. After thnt they have three days of riotous fun, feast ing nnd KiiuibliiiK. Tho fact thnt New Year's falls upon the name day or very near It among all Aryan peoples Is a atrong proof of their common origin. Tho most northern nations of ancient Kuropccclcbratcd tho day In com mon with the most southern. The turn of the sun from hi most southern point In the heavens a pilars to have been the cause of this general adoption of the same holi day season, and from the earliest times Saxon and Roman, Teuton and Kelt, Greek nud barbarian alike have recog nized it as nn occasion for rejoicing. J. H. U. New Year's l'reaenta. The giving of presents on New Year'a dny Is now a custom not widely observed, exchange of Kift generally taking place ut Christmas. Uut during the reign of Queen Elizabeth the 1st of January always culled forextravagautoutlay, particularly among the courtiers. It was on New Year's tlnv that "Royal Hess" first received and wore silk stockings. New Year's liny In France. In Franco New Year's day Is marked by lavish purchases of confectionery by the gentlemen, who almost deluge their femalo acquaintances with sweetmeat. The Paris dealers alone nro said to do a business of 200,000 on Dec. 31 and Jan. 1. I'leuannt I'mapert.

Such a jacket, dress and parasol should last ono season at least for boat, two if the wearer Is reasonably careful of them. A good chovtot or camol's hair in black or some dark color is suitable for almost any occasion. Most fashion writers revol in tho con templation of magnificent nnd costly gowns, ignoring tho mnss of everyday dresses that are worn and tho fngt that tho very persons who wear tho superb costumes they describe don't wear them always. Thero aro thousands of women gowned in plain nud comparatively in exensivo woolens to ono who wears the purple and Hue linen, so I feel that it would bo offending tho tasto of the ma jority of my gentle readers if I tried to mislead them into thinking that in the fashionable world it is always "silk gowns for breakfast and satin ones for tea." Another great reform has been wrought in this ago of common sense in dress, and that is that young girls have never lieeu so well dressed as now. By that I mean so simply and suitably for their age. In tills connection are three young girls. Tho one nlono wears a plain princess cut gown of diagonal choviot, with sleeves guimpo and foot baud of faille to match. This band at the bottom gives a faint suspicion that tho dress has by this means been length ened. If it has not, it could be if the young wearer grows tull. It is very neat, plain and yet quite dressy enough. Any woolen goods would bo pretty made so. Old silk, surah of any kind can be utilized, and a few nail heads here and thero take oif the old look. This is for u girl from thirteen to sixteen. Tho other two aro for girls of from sixteen to eighteen. Tho smaller one has a plain skirt of flowered India sill; or challio or any other rather light wool en material, made with a narrow flounce all around tho skirt. A ruffle of the same, herring boned in some other shade than tho goods, makes a dainty finish around the neck and double putted slee ves. DAIXTX OOWNS KOIt OtllLS. Tlio other dress is of pale blue cash mere, with double baud, Swiss bodico nnd sleoves of dark green veliitinn. Tlio guimpe and puds aro of cashmere braid ed with silver braid studded with small black jet beads. Tho cashmere costs about sixty cents a yard and requires about 4J yards, and 1 yards of vein tiua, which is one yard wide. If velvet is used It would need 2J yards, as it is only twenty-four inches wide. After all, it all depends upon the tasto of tlio lady whether she is well or ill dressed on a small income, Tho power of making her own clothes, excepting cloaks, and a complete understanding of herbelf nro necessary, also thrift and economy in taking care of her clothes and judgment in buying; but the btxt general guide is, get tlio best you can. tako care of it and get everything to match as nearly as K)sslble.
