: j-" Latest Freaks of Fashion.
Tailors will again make a stand in
favor of short skirts that escape the
ground for all walking dresses. Some
of these shortened skirts have seams
piped with velvet, galloon, or fur,
while others are in the new widened
shapes, less scant at the top than
formerly, and with pleats in the back
set in clusters at the belt, or in a
broad bos pleat that flares gradually
wider to the foot. Elastic btraps
hold the pleats in place.
Belted waists with yokes and plas
trons are in as great favor with
tailors as with dressmakers. They
also show prineesse gowns, some
fastened in the back, others with coat
' fronts, and Btill others crossing
diagonally. 15ut, above all else, they
make the legitimate tailor bodice, the
coat in all its varieties, as the long
tail coat, the short French coat, the
becoming 6hape with corselet front
and coat back, and the simple and
familiar riding-habit bodice, which is
always in favor for morning and
traveling dresses. Sleeves of moder
ate fulness at the top and closely
buttoned on the forearm are preferred
for most tailor gowns.
A smooth cloth gown of chataigne
brown has a pointed corselet front
unttoned on the left, with guimpe and
collar cut all in one of pink and brown
striped cloth. Thesimple sleeves are
of plain pink cloth, with deep striped
cuffs. The French skirt of brown cloth
is entered by a slit on the left trim
med with buttons, and there is a wide
striped border around the foot. Vel
vet are much used with chevron
striped wool skirts, notably one of
mole-skin-colored velvet made as a
short French coat with box-pleated
back. The front opens on a smooth
vest of blue wool, with the pointed
shevron stripes in mole-color. All the
edges of the coat are bound with Per
sian lamb-skin. The sleeves are of
the wool, also the skirt, which is
straight in front, the stripes meeting
in deep V's while the great breadth of
the back is lai'd in a triple box pleat
that flares in bell shape. Such gowns
are also made with a coat of green
velvet, and a wool skirt of black with
green chevrons. Princess gowns of
black camel's-hair are braided with
black and gold to represent a yoke,
girdle, and pointed hip pieces, ai.d are
given fulness in the back of the skirt
by velvet breadths that make a slight
demi-train.
Low-crowned felt hats to wear with
simple tailor gowns have soft brims of
long-napped beaver, without wire and
quite straight, and turned up far back
on the left side. These are girlish and
pretty in black or blue trimmed with
navy blue plush, with facing of bright
geranium red loosely folded around
the crown, the end taken up on the
left so that its vivid red will gleam
through a great panacho f black
feathers.
For middle-aged ladies are English
walking hats and boat-shaped hats of
Mack felt, with a large double-looped
fcow of black velvet on the crown, a jet
Ornament in front, and a long ostrich
plume passing closo along each side to
meet in the back. A more youthful
hat is quite round, with the brim
slightly turned away from the face,
and slit open at the side, where it is
held bv a bow of velvet much lighter
than the felt. Small black ostrich tips
are then curled outward all around
the crown, and larger tips are mount
ed high on one side quite far back.
Faults of the Walking Skirt.,
The most striking feature about the
so-called walking skirt is that it is
quite unsuitable for walking. In
windy weather it blows into unbecom
ing shapes and tangles one's feet and
ankles. In dry weather it gathers to
itself from the ground dust and dirt of
all kinds. In wet weather it becomes
muddy and wet, conveying mud and
dampness to the boots and apparel of
the wearer, thus causing colds and
serious illness among persons forced
to be out of doors for any length of
time on wet days, or keeping women
indoors who ought to be out on busi
ness or for exercise.
This so'called walking skirt is so ar
ranged that it is impossible with one
hand gracefully to lift it clear at all
points of one's boots and he ground;
lience, careful souls struggle between a
regard for their clothes and the desire
to avoid that undue exposure of the
boot and stocking caused by holding
the skirt on one side too high. '.the
grabbing of the so-called walking skirt
by both sides, though ungraceful, is,
perhaps, sensible, but is generally
also impossible, because of bundles,
embrellas or other impediments.
Ttie so-called walking skirt is
the reverse of economical, requir
ing, on account of its length,
constant repairs or renewal; it is
heavy and hot in warm weather; it is
heavy, without being a protection
from cold, in winter weather in
short, the so-called walking skirt is
ingeniously calculated to diminish
the strength of the strong woman,
and from the weak to take away the
strength she hath.
Is not this same skirt worthy of
the reformer's steel, and now that
woman is free in so many ways to
choose sensible methods of dressing,
should not the reformer's attention
t be directed especially to the length of
i the walking skirt, which fashion still
I controls, to the detriment of the
I health and happiness of those forced
to use it, as well as indirectly to that
of the welfare of the human ruoe. At
- the reception, dinner party, afternoon
f ta, in the ball room, the carriage,
' the house, let her who chooses wear a
long-skirted gown nothing is more
1 graceful or more becoming to the
t generality of women but for walking,
j as for all kinds of open-air exercise.
tennis, boating, riding, let her also
dress appropriately to the occasion;
a-nd, above all, let women dress ap
propriately for exercise, enforced or
voluntary, in wet weather. Dostcn

First Love.
Ask any very young ladv what she
think? of "first love," and shs Till tell
you that it is thu quintessence of a'l
that is ecstatic, compared with which

alter it mint be as bky-bl'ie c 'mints!

of lc and lie will vow that it is
the champagne of humane existence,
to which all subsequent emotions dig
iiiiied with the name of love are mere
Jersey cider. Hut the mature of hot h
sexes, in nine caj-e out of ten, can tell
a dilfwvnt story. Boy-nnd-girl love is
but a faint shadow 01 the intense pas
sion which often overcomes and en
thralls the middle-aged.
The capacity for loving is not fully
developed in the young inLs who has
just cast aside her dolls, nor in the
youth whose chin is but newly ac
quainted with the razori The enthu
siasm 01 tliese novice in the tender
passion is generally evanescent. Of
course, there are exceptional cases,
but, as a general rule, love does not
take firm root in the heart before the
age of 2.V Professions of undying de
votion from young men of 10 or iiO
are rarely to be trusted. The ques
tion which a lady who receivesan offer
ot marriage should consider is not
merely whether she has won the affec
tions of her admirer, but also whether,
if won, she can keep them. To have
and to hold are two things. From tlw
Jew York Ledger.
Floral Bed Rooms.
Floralbed rooms have been anEnglish
craze and have recently been adopted
in this country. The Decorator and
Furnisher gives the following sugges
tions in regard to them:
The best decorative houses and
wall paper stores keep paper and cre
tonne6n suite, and toilet ware can al
so be had to match.
A yellow poppy paper on a satin
ground, with a cretonne dado to har
monize, makes a pretty arrangement.
The cretonne dado should be run
around the room in order to make a
break in the wall. All the paint should
be cream. The curtains and bed
spread should bo ot cietonne. The
ceiling paper should be yellow and
white. All the furniture should be
covered with the cretonne, and a pale
blue "lily" carpet makes an appro
priate finish to the decoration.
Another bed-room might have a
wild rose paper, with the wild rose
cretonne, and a dull green "lily"
carpet. There are beautiful rose
papers with cretonne to match in
yellows, pinks and reds. A yellow
and white ceiling paper goes with
either of the above schemes.
0:her schemes are blue and white
poppies, sweet peas and forget menots,
m all of which cases cretonnes, paper,
carpet and chinaware may be obtain
ed. To make the rooms complete,
small embroidered llowers in washing
silks should be in the corner of all
sheets, pillow-cases, towels and toilet
covers.
The Value of Onions,
While the onion stands at a disad
vantage among vegetables on account
of its pronounced and not altogether
agreeable odor, it is, doubtless, one of
the most valuable and healthful prod
ucts of the garden. This value is not
confined to its use as an articleofdiet,
since the efficacy of onion poultices in
cases of croup and similar diseases
are too well known to need repetition.
The roasted heart of an onion, placed
in the ear as hot as it can be borno.
will often relieve cases of earache
when other remedies fail, and a very
excellent cough sirup is made by put
ting one-half cup minced onions into
a cup each of vinegar and molasses,
simmering on the stove lor half an
hour and then straining, Atenspoon
ful of this sirup taken frequently will
relieve severe cases of cough and
hoarseness.
It is claimed that onions, as an ar
ticle of food are excellent blood puri
fiers, greatly improving the complex
ion, and of course, entirely harmless.
As a nervine, they are very beneficial,
either cooked or raw, and, if eaten in
the natural state, the addition of a
little salt or pepper makes them more
palatable. The large, imported vari
eties are much less pungent and dis
agreeable to the taste than thesmailer
native growth, but equally tlhcient in
remedial action. Good Housekeeping-
Danger in the Fans.
Did woman ever stop to think of the
direct result of her fan-waving when in
a heated condition? writes a medical
man. Attired in a low-necked even
ing dress, it may be. she seats herself
in some auiet nook after becoming
thoroughly heated up and begins to
fan herself vigorously, or gets her es
cort to do the work for her. In a very
short time she begins to feel comforta
ble, and then cool, and finally chilly.
Still, from habit more than anything
else she keeps the fan going, unless she
is positively cold, and wonders where
the draft conies from. The next day
she has a cold and cannot account for
it. A fan makes a current of wind the
same as an open door, and when it is
used vigorously must cause such a
sudden cooling down of the
body temperature that a chill is ex
perienced. The fan on hot days is an
indispensable article, but there is
danger in its extreme use. A little
fanning when hot may produce good,
pleasant results, but if used too much
and continually, colds, infhicnza,
pneumonia and consumption may be
t raced back to its inordinate use. He
sides, some less strong person next to
you may suffer from the cool air which
the fan makes. The fan is used more
asa habit than for real need, and it is
this which should be deplored and dis
couraged by all, especially in publi?
places.
Tha Nineteenth Century Woman
There is an old belief of the mascu
line Anglo-Saxon mind that a woman,
to be lovable, should have no marked
individuality. But with this world's
rapid advance through the Victorian
ane, woman has become more than
ever perplexing to the male atom who
poises himself for a. moment to make
a study of her. She no longer needs
man's apparel to practise a profession
or to journey forth on foot under the
green leaves of Ard'Mi. She has grown
self-reliant and cosmopolitan, equaliy
at home in the White House or on the
hanks of the Neva. She never plucks
caisies and buttercups nowadays, to
test her lover's affection by pulling
apart their petals. You find her, in
stead, arranging orchids in a glass, and
making cynical reflections upon the
worthicssness of the entire race. In
dividual love or hate in the opposite
sex is apparently all 0119 to hev.

of them cp'u:n':ig' how such i&ethnu j
should be applied, or w herein they j

truths plain. To como down to the
root of the m:it;er at once, let 1110 ak
the readers how lie is to know whether
his hogu, bis poultry or his cows pay
him a proiit, if he feeds each class of
these animals from tlio same trrain
bins? The cows may bo making a
proiit on their feed, and thus conceal
ing a deiicit that comes from unprofit
able ho's aud liens. Or. tlio cows and
hens may bo concealing the fact that
the hogs are running in debt io tho
farm. It is tho same with other kinds
of stock, when ull aie fed from a
coramoD quantity of feed stuffs. Occa
sionally it is evon worse than tho case
ciontioneJ, the cows, hens, and hogs
night each and all return loss than
the cost of their keep, and still tho
truth be undiscovered, provided some
other branch of farm operations
brought in sufficient rovenuo to mako
up the delicicucy. How can it bo told,
whether a certain crop of corn, oats,
wheat or potatoes, has boen a profit
able ono to raise, if no account is kept
of tho cost of preparing the ground,
dressing, caring for, and harvesting
the crop.
I would have separate grain bins for
each kind of stock; then upoa the first
day of January of each year, or upon
the first day of one of tho spring
months, if one chooses, a largo blank
book should be procured, and every
time a sack of bran or oats is put into
the poultry house, its cost should be
charged to the account of the poultry.
If ground meal, bone or any other ar
ticle of food is purchased for the hens,
let the cost be charged to them, and
whenever eggs or market poultry are
sold, let tho proper credit be given,
together with a credit for tho eggs
and poultry used on the tablo. If the
hens have eaten a certain number of
bushels of vegetables, 'their value
should be charged to tho poultry ac
count At the end of the year it will
bo pretty plain how tho fowls have
paid.
The dairy will havo charged to it
the feed that has been placed In the
stable bins, together with tho value of
the hay, ensilage and roots caton; and
credit will be given to tho same, for
the butter sold and eaten, the milk
sold or used, and the estimated value
of the skim milk fed out. Tho dairy
6hould also be credited for tho value
of calves, when weaned, and for the
manure that is made.
It is not necessary to go further into
details, to show that this is the only
way by which we can toll whether tho
work is profitable or not. This is tho
only way, if it is not profitable, by
which ono can tell what branch i-s
handicapping all the rest It needs
no great knowledge of bookkeeping,
to classify those important facts. Any
one with good common sense can
make such debit mid credit enfr.es,
under tho heading of each branch of
his farm operations, as he can himself
readily understand, when ho comes to
reckon up the rout and tho valuo of
articles snld and on hand. Tho great
point is to begin keeping such accounts,
and the sooner one begins, the hotter.
Practical Farmer.
Over Ia'toil Me:t it Unprnfltnb'e.
Almost any sort of animal used far
human food can, with greater proiit
both to tho fender and butcher, bo
made excessively fat than the sheep,
though a superabundance of fat is not
desirable, or sought alter, by the aver
ago consumer of meat whether it be
beef, pork, veal or mutton; henco such
goods are handled at a loss.
There is a medium line to bo ob
served ia preparing stock for the mar
ket that will insure better satisfaction
to all parties concerned than tho ex
tremes of either over or under fatting,
and while it is true tho loan parts of
very lat meat are always sweeter,
more juicy and tender than when lean
ness predominates over the carcass,
yet the proportion of this fine quality
of meat is so small compared with
the aggregate weight of a very fat car
cass, that butchers are shy except at
low prices, knowing the largo amount
of unsaleable bulk it contains. Par
ticularly is this true of mutton, and
an excessively fat carcass of that class
of meat answers more tho purpose of
showing the possibilities of the ani
mal or breed to lay on fat, than any
ends of profit reached, or satisfactory
returns, to either the feeder, the butch
er or consumer. A leading lUrming
ham butcher, who supplies meats to
the weekly market, writes to in En
glish paper, touching this matter, and
says:
"Advise your readers to avoid send
ing heavy fat mutton to market there
is no sale, and it is a waste of time,
food and labor tc grow, and is of small
value when slaughtered. It cannot
compete with tho lean Australian mut
ton now offered." What more advice
than our correspondent has himself
qendered is needed? I list suggestion
is well worth tho consideration of
breeders. There should not bo much
difficulty in adopting it. Ppwards of
a dozen different breeds of sheep should
afford material enough for the pro
duction of lean mutton. Showyard
attractions are not conducive of this
result. Nor is the cr;.,e for early
maturity. These objects are laudable
in their way. but it behooves breed
ers to keep a close eye upon the de
mands of the age, in as far, at least, as
they concern their particular indus
try. Coleman's I'ural World.

to condemn tho wasteful method of
harvesting tho corn crop so prevalent
throughout the country, and which wo
have so frequently denounced. Tho
stripping of tho blades and cutting of
