NEW YOIIK , April 1. It Is dimoult to
forbear serious InrrlnReratcit of the tenth
commandment daring these spring dayn ,
wtion every shop's counter and window Is a
rnuceum of dellcato beauty , when every
April day Is n mllllnet'a or module's open-
In ? , and wtmi temptations to extravagance
beset every path- . Ono ot the e-spcclal cnarca
for the feminine conscience and purse at
this moment Is' the paracol display ; The
handles deserving especial notice are rather
long and finished either In metal , or for n
depth of eight InchCn frcm the butt the
porcelain and collulolj hilts are painted.
The painted ecenca arc from well known
opera bouffe. Every picture encircles the
handle It adcrr.a and along with an abund
ance of treatment In gilt the very tip Is
finished with some such quaint china flguro
ei a minute frog , .mouse , pig cc rabbit.
Handles equally alluring are made of gun
tnetat decorated with polished silver , having
largo Imitation cabochon atones set In ihelr
ends , clEo the gun metal k overlaid with
bright flllgi-ee silver work , and small beveled
Btcncs punctuate the bllvcr work hero and
there.
Chief attention IB commanded , though ,
In behalf ot the bright coverings ot the rllxi
and In the effort after decorative effects ;
oven the casra for sun umbrellas are made
in the form of slim , close-chirred , puffed
and milled bags.
Any woman can flaunt this mirntnor n.
pretty etout sunshade It she chooses , for
the very good reason that'the majority of
most attractive example. ? are trimmed with
ribbon * . Satin rlhbcii about half an Inch
wide la gathered and ncwcd In tiny circular
lloiinces , ono frill Slightly overlapping the
other , from the point of the ribs up to ( Cie
ferrule end. This Is a capital device by
which a hawJsdme stained or failed ivuii-
chado can bo renovated to appear quite as
nlco as new.
Again , ribbons are Intil on flat , running
from top to bottom of the cllk covering , and
BO arranged as to give the raracol all the
aspect of elaborate striping. At the bottom
every ribbon finishes off with a loop , thua
forming a pretty fringe.
A deal of emphasis Is laid on the cases
Into which a clcsely wrapped sunshade or
sun umbrella Is thrunt wCicn not In active
UFO. Many silk paiaaola have lace covers
frilled at top and bottom ; umbrellas dtop'.ay
iclcse cases of gayly embossed leather , and
the simple taffeta sunnhailo fits Into a
( Xilrrcd case- with plokwl flounces crbplns
out above and below. None ot these covers
lit very clcee , slnco It has been found that
the tight case- holds silk In creases and
causes It to crack. Some of them. In fact ,
are rather loose bngs , Into which the folded
curahide U run and a small ellvcc slip
batten clasps tfio Gathered top.
COUP WAISTCOATS AND SHIRTS.
Golf has many fashions to account for ,
and none Is more directly due to the In-
lluenco of this game than the spring cra/e
for wearing waistcoats. Hitherto few women
found these little garments anything but an
extra burden for their already well clad
shoulders , but from now on thft walslQoit
promises to become as Important an I m
of feminine as of masculine dress. All win
ter go'fora have worn bright scarlet haM-
IcnlUcd.woolen ones , with allk sleevcrt , or
, equally' vlvW yellow oocs , and now on every
lani.we ) ore ottered vesta of hlsh and low
ctlt , double and slnglebreast , silk , pique ,
linon. gingham and duck , tb use with our
shirt waists.
O * prlmo Interest are the scarlet duck
andJinc > 'waistcoats for wear with any
spcclM of coat and skirt , and so popular do
they promise to become that every color-lov
ing woman threatens to develop as a rival
of robta reJbreait. White carved pearl but
tons arc used on these and on the equally
pretty nankeen , gray , brown and blue linen
vests. In addition , whlte < pique , duck and
flatlcloth waistcoats are offered , and , saving
that darts pull them In to the curves effeminize
feminize figures. In alt respects these are
cut on the masculine pattern.
The nhlrt waists just now bcforo us are-
all made up and sold with collars ot their
awn material , string ties to match , and we
have It ox cathedra that yokes , either at
bark or front , are not la the most recent
taste. ( Many ol the prettiest waists fasten up
In front with porcelain x r celluloid buttcus ,
colored In plaids or figures , or solid tlnta
to exactly harmonize with the shirts on
which they serve , and by way ot a novelty
wo have etflng tlca of the , thickest gros
grain ribbon , barred In bright Roman
stripes and deeply fringed at cither end.
As a matter ot fact" though , the women
TV ho dress for decoration's sake , are not
going to swathe their necks very often In
otlff linen and gau3y cravats. With shirts ,
both ot ellk and Kirigharn , white muslin
and. taffeta stocks , hlgli and soft and com
pleted with a wheel-shaped bow under the
chin , will bo most highly esteemed. * As
attrrtctlTo'aa anything seen this season are
the. blue , brown and rose-colored ties of
atlft grass linen , selling everywhere. Some
of thcsu oddities are woven ot a very elastic
atraw that has a bright satiny flnlsh and
produces about the- coolest neckband possible
for hot weather.

Agreeable to contemplate , with a view
to the Inevitable don days , are , the well

SUMMER COATS.
A Terr "harp eye la required to dlscer
the point * of difference between the nc :

All things considered the fashions Are less
fickle thiin formerly , and there Is no Indica
tion that long skirted jacketo will arrive
befcro our cozy llttlo bob-tailed ones are
completely worn out. Examining the sub
ject at all points , It Is caay to discover that
braided wraps are still much n vogue , and
that fewer capeo will bo worn In the next
six mouths than remember for a long
time.
Saving the delicate ruffled silk and chiffon

cape , as wo loved It two or three years ago ,
Is almost an obsolete garment. There are
certain examples ot the genus among evenIng -

THE SliniNKINO OLOUSE.
Another conspicuous change the eprlng !
flaring collars are attached , but buttons are
moat prarlngly used.
On Ic-ss sumptuous wraps the buttons are
moat often supplied ot cut slee ) and ot
pearl , prettily Inlaid with gold and silver.
The scarlet serge and melton golf coats
have big black buttons , usually of gun
metal , with crossed drivers on them In
bright metal. A very fair resume ot the
best of the now ahapeti In ccats Is given In
the accompanying Illustration. Hero It U
clearly elucidated that the chief point ot
Interest with regard to summer wraps Is
Its oddity of shape , and Is the most Im
portant object to strive after.

ventional design for covert cloth. Here wo

VISITING WRAPS.
has Inaugurated Is the discreet shrinkage of
theblouse. . These of slender flguro may
mourn , but the change was bound to come ,
and It has been made gracefully. Fronts
ot coats are roomy , and that Is the best
that can be made of It , while any one who
a llttlo later on takes her walks abroad In
a coat blouse back and front will eorve aa
a Just object of derision. By way of recOmpense -
penso for thlo diminishing ot the body portion
tion a rooro generous length of tall has been
lot out below the belt , and the art of braid
ing goes merrily on.
Another conspicuous devicels > that of
trimming very elaborately the fronts of
coats with jabots and rovers , and the Jew-
Hcd belt Is by no means at the end of Its
service. Touching the question of shape
again , It Is telf-evldent that thcao cut oft
from the blouse will take gladly to the short
box-shaped jacket , which In summer melton ,
covert , etc. , depends for 1's ornamentation
chiefly on the new device of tucking , Added
to thla wo have ccats decorated with flat
stitched down bias bands of ailk , coats show |
ing graceful arabeaques done In gathered !
satin ribbon , and , moro elegantly than all ,
jackets set oft with lace appllqucd and cm-
broliiery , done In gold and Oliver thread ? .
The o Importers who show the freshest
Parisian splendors cut-lly account for the
subsiding of the capo by a display of the
brocaded satin calling coats of heavy silk .
overlaid with entire Jackets of black or I i
white lace. To all aueh , of course , tall , ' '
Is neither Bilk nor satin , but a silk linen , |
woven In exactly the covert colors and pro
nounced not only far cooler , but very much
moro durable than the taffetas and coat
serges hitherto adopted for this purpose.
'me next jacket Is built of green silk ,
heavy green peau do solo , that in turn Is
lined with a pale green silk and the kerchief
fronts of the wrap are offset with a rich
trimming of jet in broad key pattern on the
body sleeves and graduated tails. Black lace
frills edge the folding fronts , the- collar and
garnish the sleeves and this Is created an
Ideal carriage jacket for the spring of 'OS.
Over In Paris these are made up In violet
bengallnc , royal blue duchess satin and ren-
aii a mcnt gorgeous by a lavish treatment
with gold and silver spangles or bullion
embroidery.
The third figure In the group Is the lasf
word In capes of the sturdier sort , which are
worn when shopping , driving , etc. , and the
exceeding showlness ot the plaid selected
only enhances the fashionable value ot the
garment. At the root of the lofty notched
collar a tan leather strap encircles the- neck
and Is finished , back and front , by flat steel
buckles , while down the front three short
leather straps , passing through steel buckles ,
fasten this exceedingly useful wrap.
Black and white , brown , blue and red coats
are now made up In drill , duck , sail cloth
and sold quite Independent of skirts for out-
Ing and hot weather wear. Ono good pattern
of a cotton coat Is displayed by the fourth

To combine book publishing and poultry
keeping Is an Idea which It takes an enter
prising woman to carry out.
This woman Is Mrs. Sarah L. Bliss , who
Is the publisher of th'e Brooklyn 'Blue Book ,
and at her country place , just outside the
borough ot Brooklyn , and within the limits
of Greater New York , she has started a
chicken farm.
Commencing less 'than a year ago with
twenty-five chickens , .she has now over 1.000
fowls , ducks and turkeys.
"Is there any money In keeping poultry ? "
Vas the qucstjqn.asked of Mrs. 'Bliss ' at her
' "
Brooklyn offlce.v < -
"I will glvo you some notes from my ex
pense book , " was the reply , and then you
can judge for 'yourself. Of course , the
first year ono car.aot expect to reap great
protlts.
"It costs a penny a week to feed a hen.
She will lay about ISO eggs per year. For
these an average' price of 3 cents each la
given , 4 or C cents In wlntor and 3 cents
In sumruer. If you care to put It down la
dollars nd cento you might average It ta
this way :
1 hen : fed for ono year nt lo a week $ 52

"I tntcad having at least 2,000 fowls , and
then I may clean $6,000 ; wages , taxes , etc. ,
will take a good | 2,000 or Jl.GOO. At pres
ent I have only ono man to help me , and I
pay him $ .12 a month , or $354 per year ; thrco
men will require In wages $1,162.
"Ducks are more profitable Investments
for the reason that their food Is not no ex
pensive. Where It costs a penny a week to
feed a h n , the bill of fare for a duck maybe
bo of a variety and quality to plcarfo the most
fastidious duckling and cost only one-half
penny per week. "
In the expense account It wIlK bo noticed
that "broilers" are not mentioned. They
are a small gold mine In themselves and
should pay the expense ot the chicken farm ,
leaving clear profit for the eggs. Mrs. Bll s
has never four.d any difficulty In disposing
of her eggs , COO every week going to one
hotel. Cie considers the cochins and the
wyandottes the meat profitable breeds and
she has some original theories In regard to
Henrietta's dally diet , treating her , as though
she were ! a dyspeptic young lady , to a drlnl-
ot hot water eatd morning. Plenty of ground
oyster ehclla are given , boiled carrots and
flish ; ono great point Is to vary the food , not
to continue the same diet for any length of
time , otherwise Mr. and Mrs. Fowl and all
the llttlo Fouta may strike , acid threaten to
change their boarding place. Plenty ot
cayenne pepper , of course , la given \vltu the
food.
.Incubators are used eotl.-ely on the Bllsa
place , one having 'accommodation for 600 ,
ono for 400 and one for 130 , costing from $60
to $20 each , or thcre-abouts.
Eight acres ot land are needed for 2,000
fowla , and some wood lend If possible. If
ducko arc kept a pond Is necessary.
In regard to her work as a publisher Mrs.
Bliss conceived the Idea three years ago
that Brooklyn was languishing for a blue
book. Its novelty to the staid Brooklyn
mind caused a furore and not a few heart
burnings to those who found that they were
not of the elect. The compilation was made
with many conscientious scruples aa to who
constituted society. Some Important name * ,
MRS. SARAH L. BLISS.
unfortunately , \vcro omitted by Inadvertence ,
a mistake which was rectified In another
edition.
Mrs. Biles devotc.s the business hours of
the day to her publishing enterprise , coming
In to tier office In Brooklyn about 11 o'clock.
Up to 10 o'clock in the morning , attired In
lubber boots and cap , she has been feeding
her chickens , many of them coining to her
when called by name.
In the "evening , perhaps , she Is .at the
Waldorf , enjoying herself with her friends ,
( .batting , full of fun , and no ono could be-
llcvo tint she had been doing a long day's
work. She Is a handsome woman , with good
complexion and sparkling eyes , and every
movement denotes grace and energy.

Record Rntntilliilici ! by a nnislan
Iiinljn Century AKO.
The notable achievements of women are
not confined to 'the temperate zones. It Is
well known tlhat In 1891 Mrs. Peary ac
companied her husband to McCormlck bay ,
on the northwestern coast of Greenland ,
where she wintered with him at "Red Cliff
hoiiFo" ( built by the expedition ) In 77 de
grees 43 minutes north latitude , and that ,
last summer , she and her little daughter ,
Marie Peary , approached still nearer to the j
north polo , reaching Cape Sablne on the
Hope. This Is the fatal spot from which
General Greely was rescued after the death
of nlne/tcen / comrades and Is 78 degrees
north , "within G degrees of the "farthest |
north" on land , that of Lockwood and
Bralnard In 1SS2. i
Wo all do honor to Mrs. Peary's dauntless
courage , but she does not stand alone In
her achievements. Though her record Is
spoken of as being unique , there ore two
women long slnco dead who have more than
equalled her record.
In July , 1735. there sailed from Irkutsk ,
Siberia , down the Lena river Into the Arctic
ECUS an expedition commanded by a Rus
sian , Lieutenant PronchlsUhef. Ho was In

board the ehlp was his brldo , . "who , rather
than be eermra'Jecl ' from the man she had
just wedded , cheerfully braved the perils
more vague and terrible then of the north
at his Elcle , The old 'records ' state that the
ship managed , despite the Ice , to pass
through the moat eastern mouth of the Lena
and then sailed northwesterly along the
coast In a passage between the Ice not moro
than 100 or 200 yards wide , almost reaching
Capo Chelyuskin , the northernmost land of
Siberia ; but hero they were stopped by
Ice , and hero 'Aey ' were forced to winter In
latitude 77 degrees 43 minutes north. In
01 dor to fully appreciate what It meant for
a woman to do this It must bo remembered
that In 1735 great Ignorance prevailed as
to the conditions of Arctic life. The
!
equipments of the Arctic expeditions on tbo
miserable little sailing vessels , often hardly
fit even to sleep upon , were extremely meager
and could In no way bear comparison with
the oarefuly fitted up ships sent north in
thlo century.
The party of Pronchlstahef lived through
the winter , Buffering from many fearful prl-
rations , and la tbo spring they broke loess
from the ice and headed the ship back.
And here , near the mouth of the riven
Olensk , on this homeward voyage , the cour
ageous llttlo brldo died. Her death wai
lollowed In two days by that of her brav *
husband , Lieutenant Pronchly.ahof. Thu *
ended the first Arctic romance.
This exploit remained unparalleled for
over 100 years , when JIme. d'Aunet , In 1839 ,
visited the island of Spltzbcrgen , on board
the ship La Recherche , sent out by France ,
and commanded by Captain Pabvre. There
was also on board a committee of scientists ,
who accomplished much valuable work. La ,
Jlecherche sailed to i.Magdalena bay , Spltz-
bergen , which is 79 degrees 33 minutes north ,
2 degrees farther north * than Mrs. I'ran
chlstshef and l'/6 farther than Mrs. Peary.
Mine. d'Aunet on her safe return horns
describes the cemetery of fishers In Magdalena -
lena bay , the men who 'Jost their lives on.
that bleak coast. It is the farthest north of
any burying ground In the world.
"I counted nfty-two graves In this ceme
tery , " she says , "which Is the most forbid
ding la the wide world ; a cemetery without
epitaphs , without monuments , without
flowers , without remembrances , without
tears , without regrets , without prayers ; a
cemetery of desolation , where oblivion doubly
environs the dead , where Is heard , no elgh ,
no voice , no human step ; a terrifying soli
tude , a profound and frigid silence , broken
only by the fierce growl of the polar bear or
the moaning of the storm. " '
