About Styles.
The materials most invojue are fine
laced cloths and the Bedford cords, of
a single color, which may be one of
the browns ranging from almond up
to seal, or any shade of the darker
blues. These will be the leading fash
ionable hues, but green and prune are
etill obtainable for those who fancy
-them. Braiding, heavy silk embroid
ery interspersed with cut jet or steel
drops, gimp, pessementerie, fur and
feather bands all those are the se
lected trimmings, though the last will
be reserved for the real winter cos
tumes. But it i not about gowns
that the women are now concerning
themselves. The fall wrap is quite as
important as the costume, and full
half the shoppers one meets are seek
ing some kind ol a stylish light-weight
.garment which will serve until it is
time for sealskin and other winter
cloaks. Coats and capes will both be
worn this fall, but the latter were
turned out in such quantities last
fpringthat women of taste now pre
fer the coat, as being smarter and less
likely to be caricatured in cheap ma
terials. A very handsome calling gown is
made of biscuit-colored vgogne, and is
-embroidered on the front of the skirt
with silk, shading from biscuit to cin
namon brown, with a touch of gold
here and there to illuminate it.
Around the bottom is a ruche of cinnamon-brown
feathers. The coat
bodice is very long in the back, but
only covers the hips, and is opened
over an embroidered waistcoat which
fastens with small gilt buttons. The
high flaming collar and rovers are
faced with brown velvet and edged
with feather trimmings. The felt hat
is the same color as the dress, and is
trimmed with cinnamon velvet, rib
bons and feathers.
The Girl Who Learns to Play.
When a society girl makes up her
mind that she will become a musician,
she must be prepared to make a great
personal sacrifice. Her highly polished,
manicured nails must go, according to
Pi Vernon, in the San Francisco
News Letter. That is, she may polish
what is left of them, but she nmst
wear them in their most abbreviated
form, for what is more harrowing to
the nerves and more fatal to the mus
ic, than the sound of finger nails
striking the ivory keys of the piano?
Ncr are short nails demanded any the
less imperatively by the exigences of a
stringed instrument. Attempt to play
the banjo or the guitar with fingers
terminating in a long, claw-like ex
tent of nails, and what is the result?
A constant fraying of the string and a
continual blurring of tone, as the nails
either strike a wrong string in passing,
or prolong the sound of the right
string after it has been "picked" by
the fleshy pad on the end of the finger.
Although the mandolin is played by
the use of a shell "pick," or plectrum,
held in the right hand, and the violin
is played with the bow, yet both of
these instruments, and banjo as well,
require no uncertain touch with the
fingers of the left hand to shorten the
strings at will. The nails should nev
er rest upon the strings along the neck
of the instrument. Professionals and
expert amateurs sometimes produce
a brilliant effect by picking a string
with the nail of the index linger, but
let not the tyro attempt it, or to grief
he will come, and that speedily.
Why People Get Married,
Though it is very common to re
proach old bachelors with their celi
bacy and to pity old maids, as if single-blessedness
were a misfortune, yet
many married people have seen fit to
offer apologies for having entered into
what some profane wag has called the
"holy bonds of padlock." One man
says he got married to get a house
keeper; another to get rid of bad com
pany. Many women declare they got mar
ried for the sake of a man; few ac
knowledge that their motive was to
et a husband, uoethe averred that
le got married in order tobe "respect
able." John Wilkes said he took a
wife to "please his friends." Wycherly,
who espoused his housemaid, said he
did it to "spite his relatives."
A widow who married a second hus
band said she wanted somebody to
condole with' her for the loss of her
first. Another, because she thought a
wedding would "amuse the children.,"
Another, to get rid of incessant im
portunity from a crowd of suitors.
Old maids who get married invari
ably assure their friends that they
thought they could be "more useful"
as wives than as spinsters. Never-t he
less, Qtiilp gives it as his opinion that
nine-tenths of all persons who marry,
whether widows or widowers, spins
ters or batchelors, do so for the sake
bt getting married.
The Discreet Woman,
Discretion or a sense of propriety
by either term is the virtue known is
like a perfume. It cannot be touched,
seen, weighed or described, but it
exists, and makes its presence and its
absence known, and is as essential to
every womanly woman, no matter
what her age, intellectual accomplish
ments, beauty or social position, as
is its perfume to perfection of the
rose.
The woman who has this precious
gift i3 by it alone protected from harm
by an invisible armor of proof. She
may rrot be safe from the tongue of
slander, for the finest armor may be
splashed with mud, but she will be
safe from any real injury. Mud can
be washed away. Only wounds leave
6cars.
The youngest or most friendless
girl who uses her wits and heeds the
warnings which she will surely receive
from her inward sense of propriety
whenever she is tempted to violate its
Jaws, can never go very far wrong. It
is a safe rule to leave undone every
thing whose perfect propriety is not
certain, unless some larger considera
tion is involved. There are cases
where a noble and unselfish aim will
tone for breaking the laws of pro
priety, but they seldom occur, and
even toe lew that do bring many evils
UtKn tfce LiT-breakers.
Don't Let Him Take Your Arm.
Lu'h-b a word to you ou at very im
portant subject. The next time any
one of you go out walking with a
masculine escort, and that escort
catches you by the arm, whether
grasping it above the elbow, or mak
ing a scoop of his hand and holding
your .arm at and below the elbow,
snub him then and there. lie is ill
bred if he attempts such a familiarity,
and nothing but a snub will cure ill
breeding. No spirited lady should
permit such a thing. It is becoming
altogether too common, and a few
well-directed snubs will be necessary
to cure the custom. Take his arm if
he offers it in a gentlemanly way, and
there is no reason why youshould not
take it; but do not permit the vulgar
ity first spoken of. A French corres
pondent says, apropos of this: "The
late M. Meissonier, though a great
artist, was a small man, physicially,
while his second wife was said tobe the
largest woman in Paris. Very short
ly after they were married they went
out walking, and Madame offered her
arm to her husband. So deeply was
the sensitive nature of the artist
wounded that the relations of the
newly married couple were almost
ruptured, and he scarcely forgave his
wife." Philadelphia Press.
Girls Try This.
I made a call on a very pretty
young friend the other day, and was
moved to comment upon the exquis
ite whiteness of her complexion. I
begged her to tell me what particular
face-bleach or cosmetic, or wash she
had been using, and then with a be
witching little pout, sho said: "It is
just buttermilk."
"Mamma told me about it," she
went on to explain, "and her old
colored nurse told her years ago
down in Kentucky when papa used to
come and see her. And so the other
day, when I was worrying over the
freckles and sunburn on my face, she
bethought herself of that old remedy
and advised me try it. I did so and
behold the result?"
"Is there any particular way to
apply it?" I asked.
"Just wash your face well with
water and then take a silk sponge
and 'pat' it on all over your face and
neck. Then when you get up in the
morning wash in clear water, and
then in some more buttermilk, and
dry your face thoroughly with a
crash towel. You can get your milk
man to bring you a pint or so every
morning, and you will find it a cheap
as well as a perfect cosmetic." Cin
cinnati Commercial Gazette.
Keeping Baby In His Carriage,
Many mothers are continually wor
ried while giving their babies an air
ing in their cab by having the restless,
mischievous little mortals insist on
climbing up and standing in the
seat, holding onto the back and
swaying from side to side in an alarm
ing manner. To all such allow me to
suggest that if a broad ribbon be se
curely fastened about baby's waist
and each end tied in a ring secured in
reach of the seat in front, it will effect
ually prevent his climbing up, nnd the
mother can go her way in peace, hap
py in the consciousness that baby can
no longer endanger his precious neck
by a quick, unguarded climb.
It will, however.be found necessary
to retain the ordinary carriage strap,
to prevent the child's lurching for
ward, as the band about the waist
only prevents climbing. These waist
bands will also be found just as con
venient and serviceable in keeping the
baby in his high-chair as in his cab.
providing the ends are fastened low
enough to prevent his rising upon his
feet.
A Black Silk Dress.
You should not buy the silk with
the very heavy cord and with an oily
gleam on its surface. It is not pretty
and it's not "in style." A soft, luster
less black with a medium cord drapes
much more becomingly.
When you come to the making of
your dress remember that you will
spoil it utterly if you have the bodice
so tight that it strains and the seams
pull. Black silk won't stand straining;
it makes the threads show. A silk
bodice, of all bodices, must be fitted
easily to fit prettily.
Jet trimmings and silk passementer
ies ore the garnitures that will beused
on black silk this autumn. Sonw
times an elaborate pa ttern is wrought
out in the silk, and et stars or cres
cents are set regularly through it.
This is not especially pretty, nor are
jet fringes desirable. French lace
makes a good trimming, tmt very pos
sibly the wisest of all courses is to put
the money all into the silk itself and
get a fabric so beautiful that it doesn't
need much decorating.
Mrs. Polk's Great Popularity.
To illustrate Mrs. Polk's popularity
when she was mistress ,of the White
House, they recountthis incident: At
one of her receptions, while she sat
gayly talking with the crowd about
her sofa, a distinguished South Caro
linian raised his voice he meant to
be heard and said: "Madam there is
a woe pronounced against you in the
Bible." Every voice was hushed, and
a scared look came over the faces of
the guests; only Mrs Polk was at ease,
and, while her black eyes Hashed, she
said with a bright smile: "What have
I done?" Well," he replied, "the Bible
says: 'Woe unto you when all men
speak well of you.' " Again the guests
breathed freely and the wit and gay
ety continued. Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Taxing Trailing Dresses.
The question of trailing dresses,
which have been worn so persistently
on the street this season, has engaged
the attention of the Supreme Sanitary
board of Vienna. All the district po
lice commissioners were the other day
officially asked their opinion as to
whether dresses sweeping in the mud
are injurious to public health; and
whether, if forbidden, the prohibition
could be enforced. The replies differ
widely as to the possibility of carry
ing out any such prohibition. One
official suggests the imposition of a
special tax on trailing dresses, but the
inventor of this happy idea admits
that the impost would be difficult of
collection

The Prairie Boy.
The boy on the western prairie,
transplanted from the East, may lind
life monotonous for a while, especially
if settlement on the laud be made in
the fall.
But when the spring conies and the
farm or settlement begins to grow to
add cows, horses, pigs and fowl then
the boy has work enough and play
enough.
Among the early experiences of the
settler's boy in his encounter with the
jack-rabbit. He meets them on the
prairie, perhaps not far from t he house.
The jack, startled-goes a few paces
8 tops and stretches out his long ears.
"Ha!" says the boy, "I want you, and
I'll have you." He advancescautious
ly. The jack moves away on three
iegs, apparently lame in every joint.
The boy makes a rush, when, lo! the
jack has vanished. A few pieces of fly
ing grass, a vanishing streak ot yellow
and brown, and the vision is past.
The boy rubs his eyes and wonders if
he saw any rabbit at all. "I'll bring
liover the next time," he says; "he'll
catch him!"
The dog has the same experience,
Jack puts himself out of sight with a
jerk and a twist immediately. The
fact is, only a greyhound can catch a
jack, and a greyhound does not suc
ceed unless lie has been deprived of
food three or four days. Even then
he is not successful always.
But the boy has pets enough with
out the jack, although Jack, if taken
in hand in infancy, makes a docile pet,
and a most destructive one, for helms
a liking for everything of a vegetable
kind, and one day in a garden will
make great havoc.
Quail came into the yard of the
house at first, and prairie chicks take
possession of the corn field when the
corn begins to shell. Our boy traps
these for the table, and for market if
he lives within ten or twenty miles of
a large town; and of young quail and
chicks he has several in process of
taming.
Among the early acquisitions is a
litter of pigs. These may run wild,
but they must be "rounded up" at
night and put in the enclosure. This,
and the "keeping of an eye" to them
all day, is part of his labor or pas
time. Of the stock, the boy has
probably a calf, "aJl his own," and it
receives much attention.
His duties keep him busy, and
neither his mind nor his body grows
rusty from disuse. If he lives on a
creek he has the creek to play with,
but if he be a far-east boy he may not
find much pleasure in it, for between
a prairie creek and an eastern brook
there is as much difference as between
a slow ox and a fast horse. ' The
prairie cret k creeps along as though
ashamed of itself, silently without a
cheerful gleam or sparkle much
different from the talking, laughing,
dancing brook of the East!
But the crowning of the prairie
boy's happiness comes when he is
sole owner of a pony aTexan pony,
perhaps one with a yellow coat with
white dapple, white mane and tail;
the boy's fortune is made now. The
pony can carry a man weighing 200
pounds. How easily, then, does the
pony carry the boy.
The boy and the pony are insepar
able, and of great usefulness, too,
for they herd the cows, look up and
bring home straying animals, and
constitute the "express line" between
home and the outlying places, going to
town, twenty miles away, may be, for
the mail, and making really the con
necting line between the new home and
the old home in the East.
The boy grows strong, wiry and
brown. His appetite is astonishing,
and he eats whatever comes without
question. His racing up and down
quickens all faculties. He enjoys the
out-door life, delights in all his posses
sions and surroundings, and asks for
or thinks of nothing better. He is
one of the many boys racing on
to manhood full of hope, energy,
"pluck." and good nature, of which
the world cannot have too much.
Blessings on the prairie boy' Geo. A.
Stockwell, in Country Gentleman.
How Quarrels Begin.
"I wish that pony was mine," said
a little boy, who stood at the window
looking down the road.
"What would you do with him?"
asked his brother.
"Ride him; that's what I'd do."
"All day long?"
"Yes; from morning till night."
"You'd have to let me ride him
sometimes," said his brother.
"Why would I? You'd have no right
in him if he were mine."
"Father would make you let me have
him part of the time."
"'So; he wouldn't."
"My children," said the mother,
who had been listening to them, and
now saw that they were beginning to
get angry with each other all for
nothing, "let me tell you of a quarrel
between two boys no bigger nor older
than you are, that I read about the
other day. They were going along the
road, talking together m a pleasant
way, when one of them said:
"I wish I had all the pasture land
in the world.'
"And the other said, 'And I wish I
had all the cattle in the world."
" 'Whit would you do then?" asked
his friend.
" 'Why, I would turn them into
your pasture land.
"No you wouldn't was the reply.
" 'Yes, I would."
" 'But I wouldn't let you.'
" 'I wouldn't ask you."
" 'You shouldn't do it."
" 'I should.'
" 'You shan't.'
" 'I will.' And with that they seized
and pounded each other like two silly,
wicked boys, as they were."
The children laughed; but their
mother said, "You see in what trifles
quarrels often begin. Were you any
wiser than these boys in your half
angry talk about an imaginary pony?
If 1 had not been here who knows but
you might have been as silly and
wicked as they were?" Sunday After
noon. Paul and Chickabiddy
"That old hen wuns away from my
little chickabiddy all the time!" cried
Paul, climbing up the steps of the
cool, vine-snaded back veranda, whero
his pretty sweet mamma was canning
cherries. "What do you fink he will
do cow?"
"I think he will acratch forliiiinlf."
"But w don't scwatch for hisiwlf.
The wobin-eUbwcat scwatches for
him "
"How is that?" asked mamma,
opening her blue eyes wi'le at her little
boy, fearing he was telling a wron
story.
"He takes thewormsthe wobin-wed-bweast
finds for lai little ones up in
the cherry-tree nest. Sec there!"
Mamma looked out upon the croquet-ground,
and there, sure enough,
was a bright, plump robin-redbreast,
braced back on his slim black legs,
pulling a line fat angle-worm out of
the damp soil, and a yard away stood
the scrawny Plymouth Hock chicka
biddy, with his long half-Hedged neck
stretched out, watching the exploit
with great anxiety.
No sooner did the robin liATe his
hard-earned prize dangling and wrig
gling in lib bill than chickabiddy gave
a spring and a squawk, robin dropped
the worm, and quick as a wink chick
abiddy gobbled it up.
''Well, I never!" said mamma with
a surprised laugh.
"He does it ever so many times,'
said Paul, wisely; "and there are so
many wobins here at Cherry farm, he
doesn't have to scwatch for hisself
at ail." Harper's Young Pcuplo.
Honest Regret.
Little 5-year-old Arthur had been
sent into the country to stay three
months at his grandpa's. It was bit
ter March weather, too cold even for
the lad to see out of doors, for the
windows were coated with thick white
frost.
"Can I go outdoors today, grand
ma?" bravely asked the lad as he
came downstairs the second morning
after his arrival. "No, of course not.
You must stay right here by the fire,
where it is warm."
The boy sighed and began playing
with the cat. "Arthur," commanded
one of the three maiden aunts, "get
up quick, you will soil your stock
ings." The young nephew obeyed
without protest. But it was rather
lonesome, and pretty soon he tried
the organ.
"Arthur," commanded aunt No. 2,
stop that noise immediately. Your
grandpa wants to read." Again the
youthful visitor obeyed. This time
he went to the window and began
scratching the frost off with a pin so
that he could see out. "Arthur," in
structed aunt No. 3, "Btop that!
Come away from the window."
Arthur stepped back from the win
dow, put his bands in his pockets,
looked first at the spectacled grand
parents, then at the three aunts poised
about the room like statues on a ped
estal, and said. "If I didn't have to
live here I'd be glad."
An Obedient Egg,
"This is a queer egg you have given
me, mother," said Woodruff at the
breakfast table; "see how it standi
on its smaller end!" Every one at
the table looked up in astonishment.
Sure enough there the egg stood as
Woodruff had said, and, what was
more wonderful still, in perfect bal
ance on the brim of a bowl.
The boy took it down, and lo! it
assumed a slanting position on the
edge of the table, seemingly in the act
of falling down and yet not falling.
All the girls almost screamed in their
amazement.
Next Woodruff took the egg and put
it in a different position again on itr
broad end.-finally clapped it, as it
were, slanting on the head of a bottle
of mineral water. The positions
which an obedient egg may oe made
to assume are not all told here. It
may be placed in any other positios
at the will of the person who handler
it. It can stand on end, sideways,
inclined to the right or the left half i
clining, etc.
The preparation or "fixing" to o'
tain such an obedient egg is very sin
pie. Let an egg be emptied through fc
small hole and then t horoughly dried.
Put into it about two thimblefuls tit
fine, dvy sand, and plug the wholf
with white wax. The sand inside wiB
act as ballast, and by slightly shakinf
theejrg thus "fixed," you can changa
at will the centre of gravity and make
your shell assume any position ycai
like to the amazement of beholders.
Getting the Wood In.
"See here, boys, did you know the
reason why Charlie can't come to
school these days is because he has to
bring in all that wood in his yard?"
asked Pete.
"Is that so!" exclaimed Tom. "Let
us help him Saturday afternoon. It
won't hurt us to give up our play for
one afternoon, and it's a shame for
Charlie to lose all the fun we are
having these recesses."
"Agreed!" shouted the other boys.
Saturday afternoon, when Charlie
was busy with his work, his school
mates surprised him by rushing into
the yard and offering to help. By
night the last stick of wood had been
brought in. Harper's Young People
How the Prairie Looks.
Have you ever seen a westerr
prairie? If not, you might enjoy
being there for a month in summer,
As on the ocean, so on the prairie,
there is usually a breeze to partly
compensate for the lack of shade
Most prairies are slightly rolling or
hilly, having somewhat the appear
ance of a sea with heavy waves, and
occasionally, crowning one of these
low swells, there is a grove of young
trees. Sometimes, however, not
even a shrub is visible for many miles.
Maurice Thompson, in September

A Chinese Thief.
A retired sea captain relates that
once while in China he spent one night
ashore with another captain, when
this adventure occurred: "I was
awakened from a sound sleep by an
agonized scream and a scuffle close t
my head. Springing to the floor, I
saw iny friend grappling with a nat
ive thief, who was as naked as the day
he was born. Before I could lend a
hand tho robber broke away and
dashed through the open window &
few feet front the ground, his long cue
flying behind him. I turned and
found my friend rolling on his couch
in an testacy of pain. Making a
light. I found that the flesh and skin
had been torn clear away from the
inside of one of bis hands. Tho thief
was prowling about the room when
the captain awoke and made a grab
at him. The fellow's naked bod
writhed out of his grasp like an eel.
The captain caught the robber by the
pig-tail, and then he was undone. The
rascal had braided it full of fish-hooks,
and the keen, barbed points just raked
the flesh from the sailoi't L&il

Wind Mill now Made.
BUY IT! TRY IT!
After Rl years of success In the manutau
ttreof Wind Mills, we have lately made a
complete c1 an ire inonrmlil, all parts being
built ttronirer and better proportioned and a
self lubricant bushing placed in all boxes to
save the purchaser from climbing; high tow
ers to ol lit, The arae principal of tolf gov-,
truing retained. 3very part of the Mill ful
ly WARRANTED, and wlU run without mak
ing a noise.
The reputation gained by the Perking Mil
in the paBt has Induced some unscrupulous
persons to Imitate th mill and even to take
our ham i and apply It to an Inferior mill Be
not deceived, none genuine unless stamped
at below. We manufacture both pumping
and geared mills, tanks pumps eto and gen
eral Wind Mill supplies. Good Agents want
