NKW YORK , Jan. 20. "Tho melancholy
days have come , the saddest of the year , "
for ono whoso duty It Is to record the seed
tlmo , 'blooming ' and fcarvcut of fachlons.
Every woman Just now Is far more cxorclowl
ovoi * good strokes of business In house llnca
nml keeping what Is vulgarly known as a
"skinned oyo" on the January ( bargains In
cup toweling and cocoa matting , than bark
ening to any siren songij of spring chlffcr.n
and forecasts of Easier bonnets. iAnd yet ,
and yet the axis IB true to Itself , for on
their vnrloiin ways to sales of household ,
troaaurcn they etop j > erforco to inako note
of the prcmituro displays of ginghams , lappets -
pots , lawns , challlcs and what not that the
shop keepers are making on all sides.
It was only to bo expected that plnlds and
checks would overtake ami overwhelm the
cotton fabrlCB. All the gayest ot Scotch
combinations nro displayed In the light
goods , and from the mills In Scotland comes a
lovely gingham , woven very like * grenadine.
ThlJ open-meshed material Is 'to ' make up
over shot 'taffeta ' silk , It Is platu to neo , but
the .stouter and less expensive weaves are
qulto n.s enticing aa this novelty. A big ,
1 > old plaid Is , for example , worked out In
all the light and < lark 'tones and tints of
lavender. Another will 'bo ' cross-barred In
light ibluo on ii < lnrk 'blue ' ground , ana to
nmko up with this are truly admirable cat-
ton embroideries , cither whlto or of the color
to exactly match the gingham chosen. With
few exceptions all the muslins , lawns and
organdlc.1 are striped , while In place of the
satin Btrlped challle , so widely popular last
summer , the novelty this tlmo Is a silk
warp ibarcgo. There is cause for congrat
ulation In this , for barege Is a charming ,
durable goods , even more cervieeablc and
uulto as light In weight as ohallle , and ths
now ones necn ro far show dull dark ( back
grounds , richly figured In bouquets of violets
lets , lilacs , hyaclnthu and heads and sprays
of mignonette.
The challles have returned to us very gaily
hodlght Indeed , printed In what are called
Itourbon patterns , that Is with rows of ro' e-
liuds , or lines of shepherd crooka 'tied ' to-
gothcr with ribbon bsws. They , one and all ,
are < lone In very light eolors and seem moat
suitable for dancing dresses , hi the summer
evening FO far away.
IIUUHAH FOR FLOUNCES.
Meantime there Is more or less anxiety
on e\ory woman's part to know what chape
these summer dresses of hers will take , and
It U proper to assure everjoBO tl.it wo have
not yet half done with the ruflle. Thla Is
ns It should be , for more ran bo dcuo with
flounces , to make a cheap cotton drcsj pretty
and picturesque , than any other resource of
the dressmaker.
Skirts will bo shaped conservatively as to
fullness. A spring walking suit and a
foulard of the future are both sketched this
Meek , as a warning. Hero we have an
apricot-colored foulard with knlfe-p'altcd
flounces running up to the wa'at , A design
o b'ack ( lowers relieve ? the bright saffron
tint of the silk and black net edges all the
llttlo plalilnps. Ono thlckncos of figured net
veils the wa.5t ! , and over all la laid a littlcc
ot b'nck satin ribbon , held , wherever the
ribbon creeses , with large Jet points.
Thh In every rcapccc Is a perfectly reliable
foiccast , and attmtlon mift bo called to
the fact that the foundation skirt Is cut
riulto scant , cot moro than three yards In i
ijiircment at the foot. A five-Inch band >
of haircloth Is sot In at the bottom , and I
scarcely a half-dozen small gathers appear i
about the waist. The girdle and neck finish
nro models for anjono to follo.v duilng the !
next felx months. Hraldo- this arrangement (
of rufllw we are destined later to see skirts ,
made In the form of one deep but not very I
full flounce , set on a hip yoke , and three '
llounceu set on this , edged In turn with '
little frllllngs. j
Already wo see pretty black taffeta hoiuo i
Blurts , decorated with llouncca of the tame
cet on In panels running from hip to foot ,
or In clusters of three narrow Ilutlngs , placed
to uimulato a long pointed or rounded over-
Bklrt. Added to these motifs In milling ,
women < ire already wearing , at the end of
the seascn , a scheme1 of flouncing that bids
fair to endure straight on into the spring.
That Is decorated white ellk or satin , or
silk muslin dresses with Iluted edgings of
black net or chiffon or liberty olk. ! Some
really o.\qulslto evening toilets have been
turned out of house manufactories , conslst'ng
of an old white silk underpettleoat and body
entirely overlaid with white muslin flounces ,
each one edged with a ruffled frill of black
chiffon. Nothing could at once be simper
and more elaborate ; the full nmilln bodice
striped with wee black fluting * and the white
swlfij gaah edged with thorn. Bouquets of
whlto lilac are usually caught on the shoulder
with such gowns .is thcpp. Jet plM holding
the flowers In place and a white set unpainted -
painted fan , simply frilled down every stick
with an Inch-deep flounce of dusky chiffon ,
comp'etps the llttlo ccvtutno.
EXTRAVAGANT FASHION.
Ucally , In behalf of the economical women
who cannot afford to enrich the ragman
every ten weeks or so , when the fashions
takn a lurch this way or that , legislation
should atcp In to cstabltsh some cue pattern
cr weave of black silk as the fashion. Hero
It was , as we remember , only yesterday
every woman felt compelled to buy at least
a black niolro velours skirt to wear her
fancy waists with , or who was she , with soul
so dead to the needs ot her wardrobe that
she couldn't afford a skirt of black silk all
covered with sprawly brocaded designs ?
Well , now , forsooth , the moire velours , or
the plain molro or the brocaded patterns
are utterly abhorred of the well dressed , and
the manufacturers have got out a new black
slllc. It Is a crisp watered silk with great
brocaded polka dots or giant triangles , or
long 'wnvellko lines running and spattered
all over It. The brilliancy of It Is unde
niable , as la that of the now evening silks ,
all of which are shaded from deepest tones
to palest tints on every breadth. They , too ,
are -watered and brocaded , and are meant
for magnificent reception , dinner . .ml ball
dresses. It Is plain to see that their advent
has been made neecessary by the long
tr.ilns , and for the beautiful new tea gowns
and wedding costumes a wonderful velvet
embossed silk Is adopted. On a peau dc solo
ground of palest coral silk or nllo green
Ir.rg , black fern leaves and fronds are em
bossed In velvet , and these now fabrics , made
up with the over-Insinuating black lace , re
sult lu great splendors of the toilet.
MILLINERY .MONSTERS.
There are some now things , oven In the
mldscason , and ono of them now Is tha
pretty fancy for facing wldc'brlmmed hats
with whlto tulle. A roll of the diaphanous
stuff Is Boftly twisted and laid against the
dark felt brim , or the whole Inside of the
) > at brim la faced with shirred and then
clipped tulle. A good many pretty head
pieces show pompoms of white tulle sot In to
111 ! up under the brim at the back , and. If
what wo have now Is any sign of the future ,
spring bonnets will be full ot oJd llttlo
beastioa , for among the new things in mil
linery are the sweetest of tiny green , red
and blue lizards , charmingly enameled frogs
and turtlvand many more such like orna
mental reptiles.
They are to take the place , so hat trim
mers say , of thc , Jeweled buckles and rosettes
and buttons and things that have been used
ad nauseam. Most of these charming mon
sters are enameled , and yet are flexible , and
are meant for use amid the knots of dusty
leaves and deeply purple tuscany violets ,
gardenias and bunches of prlmn.aes
already blossoming amid the winter plumage.
In addition to these not at all expensive or
naments for hats that have no business at
the theater , and ; indeed , arc not worn there ,
women are giving hourly more and more
attention to the dressing of their l > : re
heads.
Some gay girls catch nil the shiny masses
of their back hair In nets of variously col
ored silks , pinned down with prongs of tor-
tolso shell , more or less richly Jeweled.
There is a valiant effort being mide to In-
troJut > - in adaptation ot the Spanish man
tilla , but women take to this sensible head
dress very timidly. Ono daring milliner
did try to adjust the black college mortar
board to theater uae , but the would-be pa
trons looked at It askance and prefer to
wear their big hats on their laps through
the play on the whole. Every other
woman , though , Is 'faithfully ' wearing beads
about her throat , whether wax pearls , the
truly beautiful Venetian glass beads or col-
las of genuine gems , it makes little differ
ence. . Those who can afford to follow the
fashion closest wear close-fitting necklaces
of medium pink or clear red coral balls , in
the center of each of which Is placed a dia
mond.
SHIRRED SKIRTS.
It was a slip of the pen , when skirts
and skirt decorations were under dlscus-
j slon. not to have emphasized the fact that
i to shirr will soon bo the order of the
j hour. Many new cloth gowns are shirred
j all about and down below the hips. Some
j of them are even so gathered at Intervals
as to divide the whole length of the petti
coat Into bands of shlrrlngs , interspersed
with puffs , the whole finished off by a
rulllo at the bottom. It Is plain to bo seen
that what Is n popular maneuver with cash-
mcro and empress cloth suits will become a
logo when cottcci dresses are worn. Just
A SMART SPRING COSTUME.
as soon , nlso , ns double rovers found favor
and adoption the tailor Instituted the
double skirt , that promises to exercise
great Influence on the spring tweeds , etc.
The double skirt ls cut quite plain and
bos nil the aspect of ono skirt , falling , just
a trifle below the Kticcs , above another of
conventional length.
Little modes of the moment deserving ot
notice nro the sensible cloth skating suits ,
trimmed with the coarse unplucked beaver ,
reaching to the ankles and then silt up
atKV.it four laches from the hem on either
side. This silt enables the skater to wear
n skirt narrow enough to pare down all
the lower half of the sleeve fits the arm most
snugly and has a double row of tiny buttons
TU'.inlng nearly up to .the elbow on the toper
side of the wrist , then falling out over the
hand's back , nearly to the knuckles , Is a fan
of plaited satin. Sometimes this , too , has
llttlo buttons on ill , but it is no wider than
the Lack of the hand , and often , 1n place of a
plaiting of satin , a ( pointed tab of goods like
the gown Is used and ornamantcd with braid-
Ing. Ono thing , however , Is quite certain ;
that long over the hand sleeve will con
tinue , and their tops are by no moaus yet
purfjectly flat.
Look at the gonci In the largo picture this
week and see the double epaulets that fall
over the bhoulder. This gown Is green , of
French-faced cloth , and Us solo trimming
consists of black silk braid and a llttlo pale
green clot'.i , with a jabot of lace let In front.
Now that the trimming of buttons Is so much
u.sod , wherever opportueilty offers many

SOCIETV'S VVX PUOVIIIEIl.
A \CMV York " \Voiiiiin at Worlc 111 I
> FliIilof Labor.
In a pretty studio at No. Ill West Thirty
fourth street. New York , where a dellghtfu
feminine atmosphere orevalls , a young wo
man has started out to conquer the world li
a wholly new field of labor.
This Is Miss Edith Pond , who has estab
lished an entertainment bureau to supply
artists to society for functions and club re
ccptlons.
Miss Pond is the daughter of Major J. D
Pond , and has , therefore , the advantage o
heredity to aid In. her Invasion of man's do
main.
"Hut It Is not really man's 'domain ' , " sail
the llttlo woman herself to a Ne\v York
World reporter , opening her eyes to a rotiiu
O of wonderment ; "In my belief a woman
Is rather better equipped. 'For ' example , she
can get at a man more readily than another
man. Ho will rarely refuse to see her. aiic !
then , of course , he cannot refuse to talk to
her and" with an expressive gesture "tho
thing Is practically done. "
It was quite easy to believe that In an en
counter nt close quarters this bright-faced ,
plump llttlo Imprcssarlo , with a rippling
laugh and nuick. expressive movements.
might well como off victor.
"How did I get the Idea ? " asked Miss
PonJ. "Why , I have been brought up In
that sort of environment , you know. And
I've been out with my father on tours and
have done some platform work myself , and
met almost all the artists of rcputo here
and abroad. I think I must have had a
business head , for I took to 'It ' naturally ,
"Oh , yes , I have won my spurs" and she
laughed again "I have served my appren
ticeship as Major Pond's advance agent. "
She was absolutely unconscious of the
ludicrous lack of fitness in the title. The
vision of the big bluff major with this di
minutive nn4 dimpled "advance agent" was
too much for gravity ,
"I have gone from Maine to California
and know every cowpath 'In ' the country , "
she concluded triumphantly ,
"It Is my ambition to ralso the standard
of these semi-private performances , I shall
transact all my Imsljicss personally , " said
Miss Pond , "and 1 mean to make men's clubs
my specljlty. What ! s > hall I offer them ?
Well , not readers. Men don't like that
sort of thing , TJipy' ' like to smoke , per
haps , and not to ho made to think. I shall
give them dancers and singers , "
Asked If this mcan hlgh kickers , she cx-
plair.c.l : , ,
"Yea , high kicking and black face If they
want It , and some noincii arc clever lu that
line now. , !
"Society demands jSomcthlng better , In
my view , and the vaudeville program will
not be Milted here. The day of sensational
stuff la passing , I .bcjleve , and good , honest

It has become a possibility for a woman
almost wholly lack lag In skill with her
needle , but endowed with taste and dlscre-
Jon , to make her own gowns at llttlo Incon
venience to herself. This sinall-sUod miracle
sbo can accomplish merely by shopping cor
rectly , for the shops know lion' to take care
of their own , to help their patrons over tight
placea and reduce the aclonco of dressmaking
to child's play. Their achievement has been
to manufacture various ill 111 cult parts of a
&tcas , that may bo put together to suit Indi
vidual taste. At the notion counter the
thrifty homo dressmaker can buy her tasque
lining alt cut out. whaleboned and sewed
up , nave the shoulder and undur-arm seams ,
from which she Is enabled to do the lUtlng
necessary. She Is ob ! to buy a basque
| lining In almost any tone or tint , And should
she wish n low-necked wa'ot , a line of dell-
cato dots on the good * shows her Just how
to cut out the throat round , squareor heart ,
shaped.
Provided with her bcned and fitted lining
she can at the eamo counter buy , already
shaped to exactly fit her throat , a. stiffened
collar , of any height preferred , trimly faced
with silk and ready to bo whipped right
Into the neck of the waist. In this depart
ment also she finds an assortment of llccn
basque belts , made up with hooks and eyco ,
to buy , according to her own measure , and
tftck In her gown. She Is oven saved that
tiresome duty of sowing In A long row ol
hooks and cyca by buying n atrip of stout
linen , to stitch by machine late the fronts
of her basque. Into this strip are fastened
the hooks and ejcs , just as elastics are al
ready Inserted In casings for skirt backa.
Skirt pockets , neat and strong , are offered
for cale , and where hooks and eyes are not
profeTablo for a basque It ! s easy to pay your
money and take In exchange n half yard or
low of beautifully worked button holes , to
stitch on , wherever they ore wanted.
Now , not only are the basque llnlngu made ,
but It la possible to buy a skirt lining , too ,
or a trimly built sham skirt , with dust rulllo
sot on , haircloth facing In , pockets In place
and elastics ready. Dotted lines at the top
A VISITING TOILET.
weight of cloth and yet sufficiently wide at
the bottom to allow of a very long stride.
Another sensible novelty Is the bicycle
mufi' , for women there are who must rldo
tf only the snow Is 'off ' the roads or streets.
To prolect their hands double hand muffs
are made , one ball of fur to protect each
set of fingers and yet permit the hand to
grasp the bars nnd ring the bell. Very
extravagant women have their bicycle muffs
of sable , but cheap , warm nnd very pretty
ones are to bo had in astrachan.
A NEW CUFF.
Another tiny , but none the less Important ,
oddity Is the small , close-plaited cuff appear
ing on all the lately finished suits. For this
women have their dresses rr. de with two or
three fronts. Where a row of buttons runs
down the shouldern and below tno nrmholes
It ia perfectly onsy to unbutton from the
body of a brown cloth suit Its slirolo braided
brown front nnd button , on a very elegant
calling or church wedding front of whlto
satin and fur , or a still more luxurious front
o ! lace and chiffon and eatln rovers. Just
as readily do sots of cuffs como off and on
and the whole ( Ammeter of a costume Is
varied many times such are some of the
tricks of the modiste.
Ono pretty and commendable fancy of the
well drceseil 'Is ' that of wearing huge favors
at weddings nnd this Is only of late adoption.
To the left shoulders of bridesmaids and
ushers , pages and ( lower girls , tire fastened
hugo bows of whlto watered sash ribbon ,
their ends listened with silver fringe , and
fainted , In silver , with the date and initials
of the brldo and groom. In tlio bow Itself
Is fastened a knot of silver leaves and t'jo
whole la very decorative and impressive.

Graphology Is the llttlo accomplishment
that the girls nro equipping themselves with ,
now that palmistry has run Its race and In
no longer talked about. To make a tedious
visit seem less long , or as a spur to a
fagging conversation , It comes In very well.
In fact , It was a clever woman that eald
Bho always kept some accomplishment up her
slccvo with which to amuse the people that
could not amuse her.
The "study of grapho Is not too Intense and
quickly engages the attention of all. It Is
nlso an accomplishment that , aided by a
keen observation , is Easily acquired. On
tha subject there are a number of good
authorities , and a llttlo practice after read
ing them carefully will coon enable one to
detect the prominent tralta of character by
the handwriting.
The artistic temperament and literary
ability are readily seen , Ardor , vehemence ,
pertinacity , the talents , candor and reck
lessness , all wrlto themselves out Haunt-
Ingly. In fact , the cardinal vlrtucn and
faults often display themselves In the hand
writing when we , alas , Imagine that we have
bchooled them to keep In the background.
After looking Into the art It U ot Interest
to note how differently wo glance at I ho
writings of our friends thau formerly. On
leading a note that 1ms the . \'a and O'B left
open at the top wo omllo and nay. a Good-
show where darts can be taken to make- the
skirt fit cnybody's hips , and of point d'
'prlt , liberty silk , chiffon and Infinite varie
ties of net there are overdresses prepared
with oven a gathering thread at tht > top
for drawing the gather Into place before
putting on the band.
At the trimming counter a woman has
offered her already prepared garnishment
of every kind to suit any dress. She can
purchase Just a pair of cream satin cuffs ,
edged with fur , and a collar to suit , or nn
entire satin busquo front tucked , inserted ,
berlbboned and bclaccd , or any color of
texture of flouncing she wants , oven to rows ,
of big silk rase leaves , stitched on , a band ,
ready to baste Into neck and arms. Moro
than this , she can get chiffon already
spangled to exactly form a pouched front for
ler > dinner dress , and If she wants them
there are for sale the loveliest wrinkled
sleeves of1 tulle and chiffon , to tack Into the
armliolcs of her dancing dress. Sleeve ? for
fat anj thin women , for those with short
and those with long firms , and , up on. the !
floor whcro smart accessories of the toilet
are found , she may buy a train to suit her
tastp. A long or short , filmplo or elegant
ono to liang from the waist , or shoulder ,
round or square , watteau or not , nnd In
ccnseouence of these trifles , light as air ,
the average woman Is well dressed these

Miss Hays was for several years connected
in a like capacity with the Allegheny City
advertising firm of Boggs & Buhl , whcra her1
work was of euch a superior character as to
attract the attention of Joseph Home &
Co. of Plttsburg , with the result that shci
entered their employ. Here the bright
ness and originality of her workoa
noticed by Janv s A. Wood of N. W. Ayer &
Son , and an offer was made to Miss Hays to
como to Philadelphia , which she accepted.
Miss Hays Is a member ot the I'lttsburg ]
Press club and of 'the ' Women's club of
Plttsburg , having attended a number of con
ventions as delegate of the latter organiza
tion. She Is well known In literary circles
as a 'writer oC ability. ,

Sleeves to ball dresses nnd other evening
toilets are suspected rather than soon.
White suede gloves are the thing for after
noon and evening wear , and whlto suede
slippers are worn for dancing.
Something now in lace is a "wire-
grounded" Valenciennes for trimming under
wear and warranted to wear out the nain
seek it decorates.
Plush Is making a vigorous bid for favor
again , and used In combination with Vene
tian point lace , embroidered with gold and
silver thread , It makes a very rich dross
trimming.
Handsome gowns of black crepe do Chine
nro trimmed very simply with small ruffles
of the same , edged with narrow black silk
gulpuro lace and set on , ouo above the
other , nt the skirt edge.
The newest things among the novelties are
gun-metal beading , very much seen on flnu
half-mourning dresses , nnd gun-metal
buckles for bats and throat latches , and in
dress decoration gun-metal belts.
TCP. gowns nro very ornate and fanciful in
style. Formerly of ono color , or two dis
tinct shades of ono color , the most approved
models nro now generally made of three
contrasting colors and as many different
fabrics.
The latest thing In hats Is a toque of whlto
broadtail trimmed with whlto feathers. The
low , broad effect in arranging the trimming
on oil hats Is the novelty in midwinter
millinery. High one-sided decorations are
out of date.
The promises of May nro already being
made , nnd tender hearts who will not have
the plumage or bodies of dead songsters In
their hats can this spring trim the hats with
lovely Ibis feathers , that cost no lives and
are fair to look upon.
Antique Batln , peau do sole , nnd satta
ducliosae are favorite silks of the moment.
Besides these there are the corded and

The thing to do now Is to wear the hat
cocked over on ono eldo. No matter what
kind of hat It Is or how the wearer's face
Is built , she must give her hat a raklah
tilt to ono car or the other If she would
bo up to dato. It's Interesting to note the
different effects this fashion haa on different
faces.
faces.Woman's
Woman's hosiery grows moro startling
every day. Kvcn the stockings for evening
wear , which heretofore liuvo been confined
almost entirely to soft shades , are getting
( juito gay. The newest are made of flno
white or dollcato colored Bilk and are em
bellished with perpendicular Mco stripes.
Between the ntrlpes are garlands of finely
embroidered Bilk flowers In contrasting coloia.
Among the- coming fashions , Jiwt whis
pered about ua yet , are the following : Short
pad bustles , long skirt bustles , panlcra , high
heels , Binall , very closo-flttlng alcoves , de
void of oven the saving grace of a frill or
puff at the top , nnd short , bunchy curl *
dangling at the back of the head. Tlio
passing of the awful "picture hat" of th
winter Is also announced.
The woman who bemoans her Jato becauea '
oho cannot have a ntunnling fur neck scarf ,
slolo or collarette , Isn't BO badly off an she
thinks , For everything wo lose wo gain
something nine , and In thin ctuso It U a strong
throat. Women who bundle thomsolyso In.
furs are apt to contract a hacking throat
cough , which Is generally more annoying to
other people than It' Is to the nubject , and
they also suffer from sere throat. Th
woman who doesn't BO much ae wear a
chiffon boa about her neck toughens her
throat and renders It ICES ufiisltlvo to iud-
den changes In the wcathor , If one wants a
neck scarf for beauty and not for warmth ,
nothing prettier can bo found than th
French rose itrurfa , so much worn In I'arl * .
