BEGGARS.
Child with the hungry eyes,
The pallid mouth and brow,
Ami the lifted, asking hands,
I am more starved than thou.
I beg not on the street:
But where the sinner stand;,
In secret $kcc, I beg
Of God, with outstretched hands.
As thou hast asked of me;
Raising thy downcast head,
So have I asked of Him,
So, trembling, have I plead.
Take this, and go thy way:
Thy hunger shall soon cease.
Thou prayest but for bread,
And I, alas for peace.

Fashions of the Day.
Uroadvvay, theso days, is a beauty par
tial. Something tbero is about velvet
anil fur anil sweeping plumes that briegs
nut tho lirillianco of a pretty face and
makes pleasing even tho plainest. The
high Medici collars of soft fur or o! tho
rich velvet. .ho large picturetquo hats,
the brims Hating back from tho faco
opped otr with plumes nodding forward
and falling backward, form a framewoik
for the fa;o that ia bound to be becom
ing. The prfsant st3le of wearing tho hair
is another 'frame" within the frame.
Or course, some who misht bo called
outre dressers, have adopUd tho Cleo do
Alerodo fashion. It is, however, of but
passing fancy and too trving to became
a general stjle. The hair combed luck
ward into a waving pompadour or pufi",
which is a halo or a shadow, as tho hair
is light or dailc. makes a setting for the
face and softens tho ifFeet of tho broad
brims of tho upturned Gainsborough or
Victorian pokes." Tho pull" or roll is
held in place by combs. Sometimes
"rati" are used also to 6hapo the pompa
dour if the hair is thin or unmanageable
but they must be usel carefully not to
destroy tho reticles effect. And care,
too, should bo taken that this "careless
ness"' does not become, straggling and
unkempt in appearance, and greater care,
perhaps, should be used to prevent the
waves from having a frizzly look: with
either result all styic and elegance is
lost. The hair should be crimped into
large, natural looking waves, and if locks
persist in straggling, they should 'be
curled into repectabiliiy.
For the street, tho hair is worn at the
back cf tho head in a braided or twisted
coil, or a bunch of short curl-; for even
ing and for the house it is'broughtup to
the top of the head, but always with the
loose, careless, curly effect.
A new style of skirt that is graceful
and gaining in favor is a circular-shaped
llouncD setoa to a rather narrow front
with afiont gore, wide side goro and
slight fullness in the back. This bounce
gives tho llaro to tho bottom cf the ddit
l hat is so much sought after just now.
All skirisaremuch narrower, four yards
and a half being considered a very gei.er
ous wiutli. The necessary ilare in front
is given the skirt by the curve of the
front gore. This curve rounds to tho
waist on tho hip and out in a decided
llaro at the foot, roaimencing about s .v
inches from the bottom. It mu it be cut
without a sharp curve, but be . r.iduated
in a way not noticeable in the seam, but
only in the result cf the spricg over the
feet. At tho sides the close effects aro
given by tho tapas underneath, v!ncli
aro caught first on the side breadth and
thpn to tho back pleat?, holding them in
place. In a properly" cut and properly
mounted skirt, tapc3 arc not at all neces
sary for the graceful swiDg.
Excepting in taiter-niddc costume?,
waists and skirts of the same material
uro seldom seen. If tho asst is mado
of the samo material, tho mocotony is
brokon by theguimpc. A beautiful cos
tume was of plum colored cloth, braided
heavily with black, with a whito satin
guiiupe. Tho wa3 cut nuito low, leaving
about an inch of the cloth at tho should
er and rounding in ilemllcllr shape- in
front and back, with tho braid running
from the elaborate pattern on the waist
in lines over the satin to the mek and
edge of tho flaring collar, which wa:of
thn whito satin.
Other costumes have tho guiuipe and
sleeves of another material brocaded or
embroidered oturfs. A handsomo satin
drtss bad the skirt and sleeves of black
satin, and the waist of violet satin with
Moused drapery of black net embroider
ed in colors, with violet or mauvo pre
dominating, a jokeof passementerie in
which was a mixture o the mauve, gold
and line-cut jet.
Another black satin dress had a red
satin waist with a drapery of black net
embroidered iu jet ami a jet
yoke.
I must say h word about jet. jet
should bo cut. not pressed. One is gen
uine, tho other imitation. It i surpris
ing how ottcn handsomely drcsseu v.c
men cheapen their costumes with tawdry
imitations.
Black is now the fashionable color for
the street.
