NEW YOHK, Feb. 20. In tho dear,
old slow-going nineteenth century we
took the seasons na they came and
duly woro our fresh bonnets nt Easter,
but with tho arrival of this Impetuous
116 era It In hard to guets by tho garments
wo wear whether May or December pre
vail. Of cotirto It Is exciting to stand ankle
deep In tho snow and decldo which printed
barego or rose-wreathed musllu, draped
In tho show window, will look Bwcctest In
Juno and how tho charmer should bo made
up. Not only Is It exciting, hut n very
easy pastime, for the ncm-rous merchants
hrewdly show besldo every muslin plero
n fetching suggestion for Its translation
Into a rompletc and artistic costume. It Is
curprlrlng how often women purely on thu
strength of a tempting pictured
model will buy a silk or lawn
of which their wardrobes really
have no need, ond two of the most
persuasive little arguments In favor of mus
lin Investments are given In Illustration
of tho point Just made. A cream colored
barege, Btrlpod In black and further deco
rated with ornatti ron of azure-eyed
forget-me-nots was the goods utilized for
the first sketch. It was becomingly
founded uoon a silk slip of a shade to
match tho Itoral design and simply, but
nomt tho Ices artfully adorned with six
lateral Insertions of deep cream fantasy
lace. A broad girdle of black loulslno silk,
fringed nt tho bottoms of tho long nud
broad ends, was n happy touch, for else
whero tho decorations wore hluo; that Is
to nay, tho collar1 and tho full nccordlnu
pleated flounce.
With tho wisdom of serpents and tho ap
parent harmlcHsness of doves the proprie
tors of show windows do not fall to lay, In
seeming carelessness, atop each draped
Ihow window's dress pnttern n hat. without
tilth the Infcreuco Is, tho gown's purchnsir
will bo apt to feel her Investment rather In
complete. Tho hat that allured nlmost Ir
rcalstlbly from tho top of tho fetching
barege was u deep yellow crln ns to brim,
nnd onto tho loose mesh of tho crln n flue
black cord of straw wns sowed In Irregular
lines. Tho crown was hut u double handful
Bf soft stcmlces pink roses, and whore thu
srln folds lifted nt the left side of the head
two of tho blossoms found n resting pluec
icnlnst tho hair.
An liiKrntliitliiK Muslin,
In dangerous Juxtaposition for tho peace
of mind of any woman, confronted with Ihc
necessity of making a prompt and clover de
cision, stood a striped muslin with no small
prclcnso to loveliness. It was of a most
Ingratiating tint of tnn barred In groups of
clear cochineal crimson. Tucked crimson
Bilk muslin supplied tho wldo pointed yola
nnd tho sleeves ns far ns tho elbow; around
the wnlst went a ribbon of tnn colored lib
erty silk embroidered In cheerful crimson
spots, nnd tho hat thnt clinched the bat
tain for many u covetous feminine beholder
r
Thero Is a green furah glrdlo at tho waist,
also picked out In yellow dots, nnd the
remainder of tho decoration Is done In
stltchlngs of (ho same color. Gray foulard,
dotted cell blue, modulated with n brood
yoko of black nud further brightened with
tailored strorjs of hluo silk, Is what the
original of the central blouse was wrought
from; and the third, more adapted by
reason of Its sleeves for afternoon wear, Is
an exemplification of what can bo done
with plain and figured loulslnu silk, sup
plemented by n front of pearl pink chiffon
and minute moonstpno buttons.
Comfort for I'mii In Spirit.
At thu counters frequented by the poor
In spirit one can find wonderful reductions
In those of last year's stock of flannel
nud silk blouses that were made with flat,
this custom tho Jackets of tho coffco lovers
hnvo grown In stylo and splendor.
These garments arc ordinarily well open
In tho throat, but long-sleeved nnd easy of
fit. Upon these general llne3 the tnste of tho
Individual Jacket wearer plays Inflnlto varia
tions. Thref! Instructive examples are
given. Tho first Is a pretty belted Jacket
of pnle yellow sntln surfaced foulard,
ndorncd with n shoulder band nnd cincture
of golden brown pnnne ribbon, which In
turn is held In place by big buttons of
pasto topaz. Mechlin Inco and yellow chif
fon aro tho other materials uted. A worthy
companion to this Is tho Mowing Jacket of
pastel pint: Liberty satin, gam luhed with
yoko nnd sleeves nnd broad rcvers of Im
itation ten tinted Irish lace. A broad sntln
ribbon of tint that exactly matches the lace
bits of stale bread. Whatever remains of
the marks after that treatment may need
n gentlo touching up with n bit of cloth
dampened In the oxalic acid and water so
lution. It by any mlschanco n largo and
obnoxious grease spot should fall upon a
page or some pnges of a hook, It may be
removed. I'ut a piece of blotting paper
tinder the spot nnd another piece of blot
ting paper over It nnd then odd the weight
of n wnrra Iron. Much of tho grease will
come out nnd bo nbsorbed by the paper,
llcnt a very little essential oil of turpen
tine till It Is very riot, then apply It to th
still warm und greasy leaf of tho hook,
spreading It on both sides with a clean
brush. More clean blotting paper and a
warm Iron will complete tho cure.

Eugenie, tho ex-empress of tho French,
Is receiving a good deal of attention nt
present In the English Journals. Although
In tho days of the omplro she was looked
unon .is tho lender of tho world of fashion,
sho wns not Immersed In frlvollt:. A
writer who had been wcllln the swim at
tho setting up of tho third empire, said
that, though It wns well known that tho
new sovereign greatly admired tho fair
SDautard, yet nobody supposed that ho
would marry her; that tho general Idea
provnlled that ho would endeavor to ob
tain a princess from sumo reigning house.
His courtiers, most of them fresh to
office" Illio himself, first gained somo Idea
of tho trutli one evening when a woman
who dotoated Mile. MontlJo, managed
clevcrlv to tear tho letter's gauzy dress
bv trending on It Just when tho emperor
nud his company were about to proceed to
dinner. Tho rent was so cxtenslvo that
Euc nle had to stay behind and procure ns
sIsImUco nnd pins from goodness knows
whero before sho could follow. On her
timidly appearing anions the diners as a
into comer tho omperor roso nnd led her
to a reserved chair next his own with an
nlr of greatest deference and Bympatl.-.
Respecting his definite proposal various
versions wont tho round nnd n correct ouo
mav never bo known unless the empress
should condescend to glvo "Leaves from
Her Journals" to the world, ns other o.
nlted women hnvo done. It wns said that
he nsked her approval of a Eplendld dlndom
ho had caused to be made, requested her
to try It on nnd then declared that no
other woman should wear It ns empress.
Tho opinion of nil people who really saw
much of hor was that her tastes wero tho
very opposite of "fast" nnd that her dis
position was rather cold, calculating und
very prudish nud reserved on somo points.
Her acquaintance with tho many flighty
women who frequented tho lmporlal court
was but a formal ono nud sho had very fow
Intmato friends. Tho birth of tho prlneo
Imperial tried hor iiovorely, because of tho
largo official attendance about her apart
ments, for sho could not feel so Indifferent
to publicity as would an old-tlmo royal
personage. As n woman she certainly
could command respect, nnd nobody really
credited ono of tho nbsurd slanders her
husband's enemies niannged to circulate out
of spite nt her elevation. No portraits
ever did Justtco to her very pocullnr typo
of boautv. They all glvo her an expres
sionless fnce, completely devoid of anima
tion or variety, wheruas bIih could appear
very fasclnntlng when talklnc or smiling.
In a small woy a society for the prevention
of destruction to books, and ho proposes to
prolong the existence of good volumes of
reference, poetry, etc., by pcrBtindlng read
ers to keep them In rack's, on hanging
shelves. In revolving stands especially built
for libraries.
It will not apparently requlro any very
parslonnto proselyting on his part to per
suado tho averngo readers to take the
chnmlng boakracks seriously, for with
few exceptions the new volumo cases are
delightfully ornamental. A truly thought
ful maker of line furnlturo has, for In
stance, brought out a new library tablo
constructed after the shape of thoso that
wero used In Roman llbrnrles. It Is a
v Id od with shelves benenth shelves so ar
ranged that when n book Is put tem
porarily aside It need not bo laid flat
on Its side, but stands upon Its feet, so
to speak, which Is the only proper posi
tion for n book to bo placed In. On top
of this table thero Is another recoptnele
for books, n small revolving stand, which
Is designed to hold the small dictionaries
of foreign languages and other reference
books. This Is n caso of fine, simply c -Ishcd
hardwood and la especially adapted
to the man's library. For reading dess
of busy authors tho moroccb-bound book
blocks nre nt once useful nnd orna
mentnl, though thero Is something nower
nnd rnther moro decoratlvo In tho shnpe
of a pnlntcd or engraved leather revolving
stnnd which, by Its brass handle, can bo
moved nbotit tho room nt tho convenience
of tho reader nnd screwed into tho arm of
tho now morocco lending chair, or it can
bo unhinged nnd folded perfectly flat for
packing.
Nowadays, when every prosperous library
owner Is moro or less of a book collector,
tho complete library must have a show
bookcase, which Is either n round, glass
topped, four-legged affair like n brlc-n-brnc
or n big square crystnl casket with a velvet
bottom occupying tho post of honor
on tho center rending table. The tun
of tho squnro box Is made of mag
nifying glahs nnd within on tho velvet baso
reposes tho open nutograph album, reveal
ing a bit of verse in Kipling's handwriting,
n specimen of tho first edition of Ptevenson
nnd other literary treasures that must ho
seen, but not exposed or handled.
