FOR THE LADIES. , 1 Cloth Co.tnmr.. ,- - Cloth is the fashionable woolen fabrio for street costnwes thia winter, - It is worn in all its varieties, such as the smooth habit cloth called Amazon or lady's cloth, the tricot, which is in small figures like armure, and the ough-flmished Cheviots like those worn by gentlemen. The simple and stylish cloth suits made by a tailor, are per haps most in ' favor, though there are many imported oostumes of cloth that are far more showy. The tailor-m&de suits rely upon their fine fit for their beauty, as they have no trimmings but the usual rows of machine stitching, and some plaiting on the bottom of he skirt; later in the winter a border . fit tnv Will Via nlnniil Hvnn .1 11,. 1..'1 w tt am " u jmucu RLlUUU lilt) BUllll, and a separate collar and cuffs of fnr will be added to the coat For slen der ladies the basques of suoh dresses are made double-breasted, with a single box-plait closely stitched down , each front, and one double box plait in the back. A slit is left open each side of the back, between The middle forms and side forms, A wide stitched belt is strapped on the side seams; there is a slit for a breast pocket, and side pockets also; the collar is By ron shape, and tta cuffs are square. If the basque is intended for a full figure the plaits are omitted, and it is a sim ple postilion basque, single or double breasted, straight around or shorter on the hips, as best suits the wearer's taste. The skirt is cut off about the knee and box plaiting is added to finish out the length, or else the skirt is entirely plain, with several rows of stitching near the foot, and this is afterward trimmed with a border of fur. The oversliirt is draped permanently on the lower skirt, being sewed in the same belt. This may be the ordinary round apron, or it may be pointed low" on one side. The bouffant appearance given many new dresses is not congruous with these suits, and tailors say with pleasure that bustles can not be worn with the costumes they mane as the heavy fabrio will weight them down. For very young ladies the newest cloth basque is very short, being only three inches below the waist, and this s often a separute piece sewed to a round waist and curved in the tront be low the waist line. For the street a coat of cloth may be added, and warm ly lined. This may be single-breasted, but is most often double-breasted, and is of medium length, with two box plaits behind. The cloths imported by tailors are of excellent quality, and cost usually $5 a yard. Eight yards is the average quantity required for a suit. The range of prices for such suits is from $75 to $125; with the lowest priced suits there is no extra coat for the street. Tailors protest against the nse of braid and frogs on cloth cos tumes, but ladies who have their own fanoies carried out insist upon having these additions in the way of trimming. The thick tubnlar braid about a fourth of an inch wide is put around the skirt and overskirt in parallel rows, and the basque has trefoil trimming of braid aoross the bust, on the cuffs, tho cor ners of the Byron collar, and on the middle forms of the back. Imported cloth costumes are more elaborately draped and trimmed than the stylishly-severe suits made to or der. Plush is the trimming most used upon these, and this is usually of a contrasting color, and tho polonaise is the favorite overdress for such suits. A long, simply-sliaped polonaise of myrtle or bronze-green cloth has double-breasted fronts fastened diago nally by bronze or old silver buttons, and the cellar and cuffs are of ombre striped plush shading from ecru to green, or else brocaded plush in leaf pattern is used in dark-red shades, or perhaps green shades. The skirt i then quite plain, with two great box plaits behind, a cluster of side-plaits down the middle of the front, and a wide border at the foot of the plush trimming. The leopard-spotted plush is also liked for trimming dark-brown, tan-colored and ecru plush suits for young ladies; theso youthful-looking diesses have a little pelerine cape of the plush, also a muff, and sometimes a turban. The London suits of cloth have braiding upon them in designs rather too elaborate to suit fastidious tastes, and sometimes cloths of two shades are used in tlie same costume, the darker shade forming the principal part of the costume, and stitched bands, plaitings, collar, cuffs and pockets, an swering for trimming, are made of the lighter shade. blocks, stripes and small c becks of Cheviots are chosen b young ladies for their cloth suits, and in these the Prussian blue shades are very fashionable, also the copper reds, seal brown trimmed with green, or the opposite of this green cloth with brown plush accessories and finally the mustard and olive shades of Cheviot with dam garnet plush, or else sapphire blue or myrtle green. Fashion Notes. Scarlet polonaises, to be worn over black skirts, are shown by Paris mil liners. . Among favorite ornaments in millin ery are taose of iridescent steel and beads. The caprice of the movement abroad is the absence of jewelry from even ball toilets. Bridal slippers are of white satin, high heeled and with rosettes or buckles of paste. . Little boys and girls are considered a necessary part of a bridal procession nowadays. ! Velvet basque3 will be much worn with silk, satin, Biradzimire and soft wool skirts. . A novelty in dress goods are the Jer sey webbings, an elastio fabrio showing a silk surface ana a wool bacu. A pretty oollar for a serge gown is square in the biok, with a box -plait in the oenter, and has square ends in front. Amerioan reversible carpets and rugs, copying in oolor and design real Smyrna ones, are attracting favorable attention. These are excellent imitations and come at much less than the oost of the genuine ones. A new sleeve, designed by Worth, is described as having one seam which comes inside the arm, and it is shirred into a point at the neck, with the full ness inserted between the back and front of the waist. . Some of the most elegant novelties of the season are in sash ribbons nine inohes wide. These ribbons are double faced; some show a moire surface on one side and plush on the other. faoe of plush in changeable colors. The things that an ingenious woman can do with brocaded velvet are in numerable, and not the least pretty are the borders Lioh she can make for brocade pelerines by cutting out the figures and button-hole stitching them on the edge, setting feather trimming underneath to puff between the pretty curves, Tw6 wide" Wx plait for k back breadth's,; single ; plaits' f for the side breadths, and no plaits at all for the front breadth, is one of ' the ways of arranging . the fullness on new skirts. The real fckirtisvery narrowand closely gored, and the plaits are an overskirt in reality. Bodices with girdles of velvet or satin of contrasting colors, or those which harmonize with the shade of the dress, aro Very popular with stylish young ladies. Out low under the arms the 'girdle tapers off into a minute point far below the waist. They are trimmed; with beaded appliques, em broidery, or are sometimes hand painted. Those of plush, however, are made perfectly plain, and laced fronf and back with gold silk cords. Thi last mentioned models are considers i the most elegant. Splendors of a Mcdiieral Banquet. When Henry III. of France and King of Poland was on his return to Paris to take up the government which had de volved upon him by the death of Cath erine de Medici's two elder sons, he passed through Venice, and the recep tion given to him by the Queen of the Adriatic is a fair specimen of numerous displays of a like nature. On the Vene tian frontier a goodly number of sena tors and councillors met the king; Lis gondola was spread with gold brocade; the nobles toled off to attend him were dressed in flowing robes of silk; sixty halberdiers as guards of honor wore liveries of orange-colored silk, and car ried ancient battle-axes. Four hundred rowers sped the royal craft on its way to the Lido, followed by countlessgon dolas of the nobility draped in cloth of gold and resplendent with mirrors and arms. On the Lido was erected a tri umphal arch, of which Palladio, the celebrated Vicenzan, had been the archi tect, and which Tintoretto and Palo Veronese had painted. The king was lodged in the Foscari palace, adorned for the purpose with everything that was rich in tapestry and gold. But the banquet in the evening was the most striking ceremony. It took place at the Giudecca, just over against the favorite hotel of modern Venice ; the oyal gondol i glided down the grand canal amid soft-sounding music, and at the steps the monarch was received by twelve noblemen dressed in picturesque mariner's costume, blue satin with scarlet facings, each with a lady in white resting on his arm. Three thou sand guests awaited the king's advent into the. courtyard, resplendent with jewels and gold brocade. To while away the time before the banquet was an nounced, an acrobat performed gym nastio feats for fie edification of the guests, and all around was assembled a sparkling fleet of gondolas with their torches and gilded prows, and their crimsohdamask coverings floated in the waves, for there were no sumptuary laws in those days, and no restraint on display. Tables were laid to accommodate the 3,000. For tho royal entertainment a curious sui prise was prepared. Henry was invited to seat himself at a table made entirely of sugar ; the napkins, plates, knives, forks, etc., were all made of that commodity ; so good was the deception that the king complacently sat down, but on taking up his napkin he found it crumble beneath his grasp. The plate beforo the king had upon it the figure of a queen seated on two tigers, which had on their breasts the arms of France and Poland. On tbe right of the royal seat were two sugar lions with a pallas and a justice of like material, while on his left stood a'sugar St. Mark and a sugar David, and on the tablo were spread horses, trees, ships, etc., all of sugar. After the re past 1,270 figures of sugar were dis tributed among the fair sex as a pleasing memorial of the event. Afttr this episode the king was taken to a more substantial table and to food of a more substantial character. At the intervals of courses, comedies were acted and poems suDg; around the hall were planted rare trees and odorous plants, baskets full of fruit hung from the ceiling, and tame hares, rabbits and birds were chained among the trees with silken cords. The repast lasted for four hours, and ninety courses passed before tho royal eyes; and then at the end of all things a huge pie was opened from which issued birds, and the guests arose to give them chase, the prize for the largest bag being an ostrich egg set in gold. With this be fran the dancing and revelry of the evening. These public banquets were imitated extensively in private life Four to five hundred ducats was an or dinary sum for a Venetian to spend on an entertainment. Tho art of cooking was carried to a ridiculous excess; into every dish it was deemed necessary to cast some gold dust to give it what they termed " the heart." Frazer's Magazine. Gloucester Sailors. The following is from "Around Cape Ann," by Hiram Rich, in the Century Mogmine : Six sloops, one boat, and one shallop composed the Cape Ann fleet in 1093 ; now it has nearly five hundred sail, of almost twenty-eight thousand tons, and Gloucester is the largest fishing port in the land. Its fleet is manned by men of every clime. A tide of young men, mainly from the provinces, sets stead ily toward this port. Many have the characteristic recklessness of the sailor, and earnings of weeks are spent be tween sunset and sunrise. There is among them no sailor cut of clothes, and ashore they follow tho prevailing fashions, down to lager beer. All haunts are prepared for Jack, and he is prepared foi all haunts. As in all other callings, thrift follows prudence and in dustry, though he seems to lie open to the changes and chances of luck. You will see his cottage commanding the finest sea view, for on the heights lie the cheapest lots. Alas ! that the wait ing wife can also look harborward on every coming sail, often to see the flag " half-mast "lor wnom f Here are no labor strikes. The sailor brings in a fare of fish, perhaps all he has caught, by themselves; they are weighed off, the vessel is put to rights, and he goes up to the counting room for his check. The whole value of the fish is reckoned by the vessel-owner or bis clerk; then is deduoted cost of ice and bait bought; then one-quarter of one per cent, for the Widows' and Or phans' Fund; one-half the remainder belongs to the owner, the other to him From his part is then deducted charges for wood-sawing and splitting, for water, medicine-chest, condensed milk, and any charge for labor on the vessel which belonged to him to do, but which has been hired done. His check is then handed him, and be presents it in person, or it finds its devious way to the bank by other perhaps not cleaner lianas. - s A New Religions Sect. lf irliio-nn has criven birth to a new re ligious seot, which is mainly composed of dissenters from other denominations. The new denomination is called " The Living Church of God," and the mem bers are called 1 the chosen." From all accounts they are a very singular peo ple. ' According to a correspondent of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, the members are' admitted to the society with great form and a prescribed order of exer cises, much like some of the secret so cieties. They claim to be possessed of some very grave secrets regarding the near approach of the end of the world which have been imparted to them by divine aspiration. A delegation of twelve of their members, as chosen apostles, have been selected to prepare a proper Bible for their use, and which will not be given to any outside of the families of the chosen. It will contain the articles of faith, and is supposed to be mainly composed of extracts from the Old Testament as they discard the new version. In some respects they are communists, as all members who are worth over $3,000 put their pronertv together and divide the profits pro rata. They take many customs from the Jews, and have a large number of holy days, which they keep very strictly, besides Saturday and Sunday of each week, which are observed as days of rest. They do not have anything to do with outsiders any more than is strictly necessary. U. hey never marry but once, and in the event of the death of husband or wife, remain single the remainder of their life. Divorce and separation are not allowed, and any difficulty which may come up in the family ofrchurch are brought before the twelve elders, from whose decision there is no appeal. In their dress and mode of living they are very simple, the men wearing their hair cut short and laces smoothly shaven, and the women wearing only their natural hair hanging loosely down their backs. They are industrious and frugal, and are accumulating much property. Much interest is manifested in them in the communities where they reside, and their numbers are increasing very fast. Their preachers literally obey the Scripture mjanction, and go about preaching without pay or com pensation, expecting to get their board, clothing and the necessaries of life from their converts. The Fortune Tellers of New York. The fortune-telling sisterhood is still a large one in Gotham, writes the New York correspondent of the Detroit Free Press. A good deal ol the plunder that it picks up goes to the Herald to pay for advertising. An advertisement that costs about a dollar may bring in $10 or $20, as the case may be. The usual charge for " consultation " is fifty cents or a dollar, but if the gifted female sees a chance for a strike, she is not going to shut her eyes and miss it. The trade of fortune-telling is now monopolized by women. Some years ago there were a few men in the business. They called themselves astrologists, and had an as tonishing kind of intimacy with the stars. But the women now have the field to themselves. The impression that all their dupes are of the servant girl class is a mistake. They catch a good many even on Fifth avenue. It is not by any means uncommon to hear a woman of average intelligence and fair education say that she believes in fortune-telling. With a great many women of this son, the hrst impulse when any thing goes wrong is to consult a fortune-teller. The parlor as well as the kitchen contributes to the coffers of the card-shuffling swindlers. When the late Philander Doe6ticks, P. B., wrote up he fortune-tellers of New lork, s .me five and twenty years ago, the trade was considerably hurt for the timo. But it soon flourished again, and is now as prosperous as ever, it not more so. We have a Jaw azainst it, but the har pies who foil j it don't mind that. They Both Lied. Mr. Finlayson, town clerk of Stir ling, Scotland, was noted for the mar velous in conversation. He was on a visit to the Earl of Monteith and Airth, in the castle of Taha, in tho loch of Monteith, and was about taking leave, when he was asked by the Earl if he had seen the sailing cherry tree. "No," said Finlayson; "what sort of a thing is it?" " It is," replied the Earl, " a tree that has grown out of a goose's mouth from a stone the bird had swallowed, and which she bears about with her in her voyages round the loch. It is cow in full fruit of the most exquisite flavor. Now, Finlayson," he added, " can you, with all your powers of memory and f incv, match the story of the cherry tree?" "Perhaps I can," said Finlavson, clearing his throat and adding: "When Oliver Cromwell was at Airth, one of the cannons sent a ball to Stirling, and lodged it in the mouth of a trumpet which one of the troopers in the castle was in the act of sounding." "Was the trumpeter killed ?" asked the Earl. "No, my lord," said Finlayson; "ie blew the ball back and killed tho artil leryman who fired it." Children. No other class touches the chords of so tender a concern as do the children. What issues hang on a child's life I In the palm of the tender little hand is carried a mother's heart, a father's hopes. " If the child misses the path of honor and falls into evil ways, and grows up to an evil youth, a mother's heart will be broken, a father's gray hair will go down to the grave with sorrow. What a path the child's tender feet has to tread I Through what snares, through what experiences of evil, through what perilous companionships its life must run? Who that reflects on the hopes and fears bound up with every child's life, the possibilities, alike dread and splen did, that overshadow it, but has his heart stirred with a deep and pathetic longing to do something to rescue these tender lives from the touch of harm. A remarkable stampede is in progress toward the Beni river, in Bolivia, un explored until last winter, when Dr. E. It. Heath ascended it and discovered vast forests of chincona and caoutchouo. Fully 10,000 men have since gone there, and the export of rubber alone has risen from 15,000 pounds to 75,000, with prom ses of 6,000,000 next year. Dr. Heath is sanguine of finding rich deposits of precious metals and medicinal plants along the Madre'de Dios. This country is' never without its evil. Just about the time the fly disap pears politics begin to get aotive. Thousands of families hare had oocwion to try the never-f&iliug qualities of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, and they all unite in the praUs of this wonderful prescription. Otters on tho Missouri. The following extract is from one of the letters of the New York Herald cor respondent, who made a canoe voyage down the Missouri, accompanied bv Captain Boyton, the latter being in his rubber suit: The temperature was below freezing point when the captain entered the water on Thursday afternoon, and I be gan to realize that there were warmer habitations to bo found than a canvas canoe. Fortunately we were protected in a measure from the wind by ranges of "gumbo" hills, through which we paddled all the afternoon. These bleak masses are composed of a sticky sub stance, which becomes quite slippery in wet weather. Not a blade of grass will grow upon it, except here and there where the natural soil rises to the sur face. The rain had worn little creeks in the ravines, and as we passed down the river hundreds of cascades tinkled musically, and their waters gushed into the Missouri and accelerated the cur rent, much to the satisfaction of the captain, who is anxious to work south ward before winter sets in. Ducks and other wild fowl cowered in niches or wherever they could gain a foothold under the banks to escape the keen wind. The sky was overcast and not a ray of sunshine appeared except a momentary gleam during a slight rain shower which occurred a 5 o'clock. Shortly afterward the river narrowed considerably, and we were forced to paddle through a fleet o snags close to tho west ahore. Upon examining the shores closely the pres ence of the snags were explained by hundreds of beaver slides which were worn in the mudly slopes. Scores of trees freshly fellad by these industri ous little animals lay upon the ground in all directions, i saw one huge cot tonwood prostrate, tho trunk of which, nearly two feet iu diameter, had been gnawed as neatly as if it had been cut with a fine eJced tool. It is as mistake to suppose that the beaver if almost extinct in America. The bank of the Missouri are completely hived with beaver holes, and on the tributary brooks they are numbered by hundreds of thousands. We met several trap pers who were plying their trade in small covered boats. Some of them had accumulated 100 skins, ranging in value frhm $1 to $5 each, but the majority were merely able to obtain a liviner. and had to work hard to accomplish even that. Now and then they trap an otter, the skin of which sells for a handsome sum, but otter traps are beginning to be a rarity. Talking a Hole Through a Board. One day at Menlo Park Mr. Edison had been showing his phonographs and telephones to a friend, who at last re marked, in a kind of despair: " Mr. Edison, you had better invent a ma chine to talk a holo through a deal board." In a week the machine Was complete, and may now be seen on ex hibition. It consists of a mouthpiece, with a diaphragm across it, to the center of which a light steel rod with a ratchet at the end is attached. On be ing sung to, the diaphragm and the rod vibrate rapidly, and the ratchet, gearing into a little cogwheel, causes it to re volve. The action of the cogwheel carries a minute drill. Many in ventors may have had as many brilliant ideas few have carried out so many in actual practical form. The secret uf Mr. Ediaon's suoooas in this direction nitty be summed up in his own words: " Whenever by theory, analogy and calculation, I have satisfied myself that the result 1 desire is impossible, I am then sure that I am on the vergo of a discovery." Miraculous Eseaiic. lit. Pleasant (Iowa) Journal. It is an experience vouchsafed to very few, to tread along the border land of death and yet come back to life, preserved as if by a miracle. Yet such was the ex perience of Professor Tice, of St. Louis, the day following the conclusion of his conrse of lectures at Burlington, Iowa, lately, as we learned from Mr. Sam'l L. Pyle. the well-known druggist of Mt. Pleasant, in relation to the case. Pro fessor Tice gives the strongest indorse ment of the eflicasy of St. Jacobs Oil, which it is possible to give. It pro duced immediate relief in an attack of neuralgia of the chest, where the pulse had gone down to thirty-live per min ute, and scarcely perceptible. In half an hour his pulse was restored to ifc normal beat of eighty. Four appoint ments of lectures had to be canceled ii. consequence. Professor Tice credits the St. Jacobs Oil with having saved his life. Mr. Geo. F. W. Willey, the widely-known teacher here, in recpouse to an inquiry concerning the remedy, said : With great pleasure I bear testi mony to the peculiar healing properties of St. Jacobs Oil, in rheumatio pains. Having been a sufferer with this dis tressing malady for years I do say that the curative effects of the St. Jacobs Oil in my case surpassed those of any other rheumatio remedy, many of which I had been forced to use. Mr. E. Rugg spoke from personal experience in stat ing that he had sufl'ertd a great deal from rheumatism, and been troubled at different times with sore throat. He .purchased a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil from Mr. Pyle, and after three or four applications was relieved of his ailment. Asking Mr. W. A. Rouse what he knew about the article he said : After great suffering with pain in the left side, at tended with severe colic, I was recom mended to use St. Jacobs Oil. I pur chased a bottle, took two doses and ap plied some externally. was relieved immediately and have not txporienced any pain since: that of my left side from which I had suffered for moro than one year having left me. Such experiences as these -carry conviction wiih them to all fair-minded and thoughtful people, and more firmly establish the merit of that famous remedy which, too, has our indorse ment. Tbe only substance that can be used in the phophone and photo-electric ex periments is selenium, a new source of which has been discovered in the Ar gentine Confederation. The Philadelphia Eay ITour mention i Mr. J. A. Walton, of 1245 North Twelfth Btreet, that city, in an enthiiHiastio indorter of St. Jacobs Oil for the relief and cure oi diseases of horsea.
