press them and rebind them with the
bant elveten binding for 75 wnu and
upward, according to the width of the
skirt. A similar concern in every city
ahould make a comfortable income oufe
the matter was brought to the notice of
women. A variety of dainty ac
cessories of pretty summer gowns of the
nicer materials are collarettes, made of
white silk bolting, exquisitely sheer
and transparent. They are sh: j.ed l.ke
very deep sailor collars behind, are cut
squarely across in front to make the n
the width of a wide plait down the
front, and are iriaimed with butter
tinted Valenciennes. This Is put in in
insertion in several rows in odd pat
terns; the plait down the front hns sev
eral rows of the hue to match into tiny
vertical ruffles. These dress a plain
Bilk waist up successful ly. Coachintr
cloaks are made on the Mother Hub
bard model, with the yoke a scries of
bewildering points from under whicu
the fullness of the garment hangs to
the ground. The yoke points are often
finished with black lace and have the
effect of an elaborate collar. Sleeves
are enormous, and tinder the points,
lace and all, the artnholes are so larun
that the most ornate sleeve can pasi
them without Injury. They bag to the
very wrist, and the wrist ties, so that
if it is necessary more room can be
given there to accommodate a cuff or I
lace frill on the dress. Such cloaVs
are invariably of very light weight
Bilk, the result being a sort of glorified
duster. The cotton crepons In the light
shades, which are selling at such low
prices, make very fetching evening
gowns if properly designed and
trimmed. A faint green crepon would
look well trimmed with white nious
seline and wide silver braid. The pink
crepon which is just the shade of a
wild rose would make an effective lit
tle dinner dress combined with black
chlfTon and black lace, while for a
piazza tea it would be admirable worn
with a soft embroidered mull sailor
collar and a sash of white taffeta rib
bon scattered with pink rose petals.
Torchon lace is again to be admitted
to use on underwear and the simpler
cotton gowns. It is imperative that
only the finer quality be used, for it
was the prevalence of loosely woven
mesh that some years ago turned the
market against this really useful and
pretty lace. Night dresses for the warm
eeason are made sleeveless, except for
frills of lace set in the armhole. A
wide sailor collar turns away from the
throat, and the gowns are long and
fully two yards about the hem. What
ever else is said of them they are very
pretty. Ex.
STRICT ECONOMY.
One Can Llva on Un Dollar and Forty
Onta a Week.
One-half of the world does not know
how the other half lives, nor do the
well-fed thousands in this prosperous
city, who daily consult their menu of
many expensive and rare courses, com
prehend that many other thousands of
hard-working, active, healthy, ener
getic, bustling people live for a whole
day upon the price of a plate of oysters
In a fashionable restaurant. Let one
man a letter carrier speak for him
self: "I have three meals a day coffee,
cakes, and either ham or beans or
corned beef and beans at each meal, at
a cost of not more than 20 Cents a meal.
They give you bread and butter with
the meat, and a fellow has plenty to
eat in three such meals. If a fellow is
hard pushed he can get along on 32
cents a day with two meals, with meat
beans, bread and coffee at each. I have
known chaps, who have been Idle for a
long time, to live upon twenty cents a
day corned beef, beans, bread and but
ter, and water for one meal, and pie and
coffee at the other In the evening. A
fellow could live all winter on those
two meals if he didn't have to juggle
cases and barrels and bales of cotton or
do heavy work. Thus it may be seen
that a man needn't starve who has $1.40
a week to spend on food." New York
Recorder.
CARE OF THE HAIR.
IfMrun Hrt(. Ahwat rutlrarll
l"ti aad liralp IMmoi
According to a certain distinguished
hair-drer. wouit-n do not know how
to comb their hair. Their sins of ig
noring are almost innumerable, and
the result is not only unattractive
locks, but headache and scalp din
eases. A cheap comb and brush, :
cording to this authority, belong in the
same category with cheap soap. They
should never be used. Cheap combs do
not have smooth teeth which will make
their way unresistingly through the
hair. It can never be run through the
Uiair without breaking off some hairs
and dragging others out by the roots.
Rubber or shell is the proper material
for a rorab. The t.vth should not be
too sharp or they will lacerate the
scalp. On the other hand, they must
not be very blunt or they will not be
effective in smoothing out tangles.
Ilrushea should be chosen with equal
care. They should not have metal
backs, no matter how attractive silver
may appear, for the metal makes them
too heavy. The back should be of
light wood and the bristles should be
long and thickly Bet. Moreover, they
should be bristles, and not weak Imi
tations. After she has purchased her
"tonsoiial supplies," the woman who
aspires to have beautiful hair should
learn how to use them. She should
brush her hair for Ave minutes at a
time twice a day, using long, even
strokes. At nifcht she should part her
hair and let it hang in two loose
braids. Once a day she should rub her
scalp with her fingers to stimulate the
circulation. The brushing is absolute
ly necessary, for the hair attracts dust
a ml dirt with fatal facility, and this,
combining with the oil of the hair.
makes it malodorous and unpleasant
in the extreme. A monthly washing
with castlle soap and the dally brush
ing will keep it clean and glossy, however.
RIPPED UP BYAS WORD FISH

I-Mi.Tm.-n ,r Hif ;if sir,..,,,,.
Not many days ago the mackerel fish
ing schooner Centennial, of Gloucester,
scraped a costly and curious acquain
tance with a huge swordfish in the
waters off Cox's ledge at the southeast
end of the Island. Mackerel were run
ning lively and the Centennial's crew
had done a great day's work harvesting
plump, striped beauties by the acre
with its mammoth $1,000 seine. At
night the vessel was hove to with her
big seine-boat, bearing the net, at
tached to the schooner and running free
astern. The tired sailors slept sound
ly, says the Philadelphia Record.
None heard any unusual uproar In the
night, not even the bow watchman. At
daylight, however, he noted that the
heavy seine-boat had been capsized, and
that it lurched weightily on its thick
towing-line. He piped all hands on
deck. Great was the regret and con
cern of all, for the valuable seine, the
mainstay of their industry, had gone
overboard and evidently was lost.
Gloomily, but quickly, the sailors right
ed the boat, and then they discovered
that a swordfish had charged the boat
and had driven his serrated saber
plumb through Its stout side. So ter
rific, Indeed, had been his onset, that,
apparently, he had flung the boat
squarely out of the sea, twirling it in
the air like a shuttlecock, and it had
come down bottom up and was partly
submerged. The bottom of the boat
Is of solid planking, but the swordfish
had driven his sword through It as eas
ily, it seemed, as if It had been of pa
per. But after he had delivered the
thrust the fish had been unable to with
draw his blade, hence, with a mighty
wrench, he had shaken himself free
from the craft, but his sword was
broken. The point, solidly fixed In the
plank and sheathing, protruded more
than six inches above the bottom of the
craft.
