They ave woven on he ptoo of grenadine or la a fancy flake, erpentlue, raised, knotted stripes- or fcouute effects. A nw weave Is a pine apple gauze bourecte, with small disks ta graded slises tlidckly strewn over gauze. The best colors In this ma terial are n Nilo green, greenish gold nKl red. Thvse are made over black or the shade mentioned of silk, and re exqulHvly stylish. Vtana PajHs come the most artistic ailks ta ie flue stripes of inch-wide bunds, si'ixirated by quarter-Inch plain etrtpos with brocaded vine patterns. These were dour to the hearts of our IframdniotOici-g. and are Just as wel otne now. Small patterns prevail, and. wltii tin exception of the soft Liberty Bilks the 'body is qulto stiff and regal looking. These Liberty lifts are s-.ft as the finest suraflj, but have a witl? face, and thus comblno tho advantages of both manufactures.

And Just because e!ho has been in their ranks affrage ho-i not always been treated with the dignity It deserves. It Is be nasxpecU'd wilrlcn bappens In the world of nHlllmry tills aeftson. No thing oceiii's as It dhould. Dnring bow of rlljboiis toward the front, Bowers nodding at the back, and no crowns anywhere to be seen are a few of the marked characteristics of tttio u rumor hut.

It will not tie able to hang round our nerks much longer, for it prevents us from turning our heads, and this alone, apart from any other consideration, would tie fatal to Its continued popularity.

A novel feature of dress, which was really a Characteristic of th "fore most fHs" of fashion last season. Is to come ill general use this season I mean the bodice either entirely or al most entirely differently constructed from the shirt Black soft materials, such as dhlffon or atrlped net, will be used for the Ixwlkvs with skirts of the llncst and lightest materials. Nor Is this to bo confined to black, for some times the skirt Is silk or cloth of a quiet tone and the much-folded and elaborately-constructed corsage monop olizes the light laow, chiffons and deli cate tinted silks. For tills style there should not be any direct relationship between re.aterials of the bodloe and skirt. The bodice must be round, com ing to the waist alone, and a good deal folded and "fumed," or It does not look right Lace is the bet ma terial for he chief component of suoh a light bodice; or chiffon and Bilk muslin for a block one. Everybody hss a house dress now adays, and simplicity Is studied os much as possible. A woman of taste wiH always dross simply In her own house when not receiving. If dress reform has taught nothing else, It has Inculcated the lesson that in simplic ity and good taste lies tho secret of home dressing. The bent and wisest thing a woman can do In her home is to wear Jast exactly snch a dress as best befit her comfort, appearance and the work she lins to do. The wearing of an evening dresw, except upon for mal occasions, Is beginning to bo con sidered more or less absurd. Parisian women aro now adorning themselves with sundry charms, which they fasten to their watch Chains or wear ns bangles. They are of gold, silver or plattna, enfvmolWl with some device, such as a swan with the words "SIsiip (sygne d'amour." Others have a heart on which the word "votM" Is written again and again with the sen- House Drew, tence, "Man ooeur est pleln de vous." Another has a gayly-colorod cook and tho inscription, "Ouamd oe coq cban tera niou amide finira." PiuiMus and forget-me-nots are innumerable. Blue and violet are latest mixture of colors for bridesmaids' costumes. The dresses cure of sky-blue silk, and cream straw hats aro trimmmed with a profusion of vloeu and a cream white bow. The combination may b new and dlsMnguo, but It Is certainly Irritating to look upon. Sashes of gauze, chiffon, mmatln, rib bon, soft silk or sarin from the piece are fashionable agaJn. The enda may bo broad or narrow, and they may tlo on the side or ut tho back, but they are sure to find a place on all thin summer gowns. Silk petticoats nre the most distract ing things in underwear. They are made of all the delicate shades and daintily trimmed with lace. A new fancy is to Mne thenn with flannektte, so as to abolish the extra underskirt Two Wedding. A long line of carriages with neatly dressed coachmen. Ladies In silks, and eatlus, oaiTj-Img flowers.

He Meets a Cool Man In a Town In East ern Connecticut. " I think about the most curious man I ever met," said the retired burglar, " I met in n house in eastern Connecticut, and I shouldn't know him either if I should meet him again unless I should hear him speak ; it was so dark where I met him that I never saw him at all. I had looked around the house down stairs, and actually hadn't seen a thing worth carrying off; it was the poorest house I ever was in, and it wasn't a bad-looking house on the outside, either. I got upstairs and groped around a little, and finally turned into a room that was darker than Egypt. I hadn't gone more than three steps in this room when I heard a man say : " Hello, there.' " ' Hello, says I. " ' Who are you ? ' says the man, ' burglar ? ' "And I said yes, I did do some thing in that line occasionally. " ' Miserable business to be in, ain't it ? 1 said the man. His voice came from a bed over in the corner of the room, and I knew he hadn't even sat up. " And I said : ' Well, I dunno. I got to support my family some way. ' " Well, you've just wasted a night here,' says the man. Did you see anything down stairs worth stealing ? ' ' And I said no I hadn't. " Well, there's less upstairs,' said the man, and then I beard him turn over and settle down to go to sleep again. I'd liked to have gone over there and kicked him, but I didn't. It was getting late and I thought, all things considered, that I might just as well let him have his sleep out." The Pennsylvania's Summer-Traveling Guide. The Summer Excursion Book of the Pennsylvania Railroad for 1894 is out, and presents an unusually meritorious appearance. Great care has been ex ercised in its compilation, the techni cal information being especially re liable. The great variety of routes suggest ed, the exhaustive schedules of rates, the graphic descriptions of about four hundred places, the explanatory maps and the illustrations, make the volume exceedingly valuable and almost indis pensable to those contemplating sum mer touring. The nominal charge of ten cents is placed on each copy, which can be obtained on application to ticket agents or the General Passenger Agent of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, Philadelphia. Ten cents extra will be charged for mailing. A Sign of Better Times. When everybody is hoping for the return of better times, each sfaw that shows the wind to be blowing from that quarter, is worthy of special notice. There is no barometer so reliable as the demand for goods. Nobody buys stock lor fun or for ap pearance. Our advertisers, The Charles E. Hires Company, of Philadelphia, transact business over a very wide field, dealing in every city, town, village and cross roads in the country. They report that the sales of Hires' Rootbeer so far this season are very much in excess of the same period last year. When it is remembered that their annual sales have before this reached the enormous total of 2,880,276 packages, which equals more than a gallon tV every family in the country, it would seem at first though that there is little room for further growth. Thirst for it. however, seems to be universal, as this year's report shows a very large gain, in dicating that ere long the person who does not drink Hires' Rootbeer will be somewhat of a curiosity. No temperance beverage has ever anywhere nearly approached Hires' Rootbeer in popularity. Its wonder ful success can be accounted fur only on the ground that it is just what the manfacturersVaim an honest extract of nature's ui'ost healthful roots, which slakes thirst, improves health, and pleases every member of tho family. Its remaikaLle s:ilc certainly proves that millions enjoy Hires' Rootbeer BLOOMSBURG, PA. THE SHOE and DRY GOODS STORE OF BLOOMSBURG.
