Tbey open both in front and in the back from Abe waist down, to give full freedom to the flounced skirt. Garnet, seal, wine, and ' navy blue are the favorite colors for these -redingotes. # TIIK COST OK LIYINO.— -Mr. Atkinson* H woll-known writer on social subjects, #F sert# that the average earnings ol the wholo population of this country are not over fifty cants a day, or $1 a day for a t HIII iIv of two perron*, anil $2 u day for a family of four ; und there arc thousand* of families who manage to get along on an income of S3OO a year. When coital con ventionalism, therefore, lays it down that a young couple have no business getting married on a smaller income than SI,OOO a year, it not only defies notorious fuct*, but forgets that the majority of thoso who constitute our best society began life on half a thousand a year.
