THE ART OF DINING Many Feople Indulge in the Joys of the Epicure at Small Expense Some people enioy all the delicacies of the season, and some don't. Some pay fancy prices and some do not. The jirice don't depend so much on what you eat as it does on where you eat it. The same article, cooked in the same wav. will vary widely in eost at differ ent restaurants. So after all it's a simple matter to live well at a moderate expense. It's merely a matter of se lecting the right cafe or restaurant. "When it comes to Harrisburg the selec tion is easy. The Manhattan solves the problem! Here is a restaurant con ducted on an extensive scale, offering a bill of tare that will compare fa vorably with others charging two or three times as much for the samee cuisine. That is not all—there s hardly a good thing to eat that is not on the bill of fare. Ask for what von want and you get a liberal portion and it is cooked and served .inst as you like it. It not only looks and tastes good—it is good. In the first place the quality is good—and it ha« lieen prepared and cooked by chefs who are experts in their line. The kitchen is supplied with every modem convenience and is kept in a clean and sanitary condition. A clean kitchen adds just as much to the relish of a meal as a clean tablecloth— yon get both at the Manhattan. The meats are all government inspected, the sea foot! is abundant and high grade, and the vegetables and other viands are selected and choice. There is a printed menu for breakfast, dinner anil sup per and there is so much on each one that it would burden your patience to print the lists and yet with all this ex cellent service you can dine at the Man fcattan for as little as three dollars and lip per week. You can lunch from a few cents up to any amount you cart to pay. The public can get an idea of the things good to cat at the Manhattan by watching the show window, which is tastefully changed every day.—Adv.

IOF INTEREST I TO WOMEN A FORECAST OF SPRIRC AND SUMMER FABRICS Waists Are Made Severely Plain, Wblle Skirts Are Full and Flaring Belts and Peasant's Basques Xew York. Feb. 26. The Spring has a variety of styles which run the gamut of those we have had. only in new forms, and those in spired bv Russia, France, Belgium and Holland.' The full skirt, however, is without doubt, first in style, whether inspired by peasant skirts or Victorian crinoline. It may be cut circular, gored with as many gores as nine, straight pleated or gathered, the requirement being that it fin res at the bottom. The Dutch costumes are particularly suited to the young girl. They often have a broad strap over the shoulders, with a blouse buttoning straight down the center front. The skirt is full, with a slight bulging at the hips. Sometimes these dresses are topped with a short Dutch jacket. White or Delft blue are favored colors for this style of dress. Bolero effects are to be seen in waists as well as in jackets and will, no doubt, be particularly smart for summer dresses. Linen, pique and poplin being materials which will make up into stunning little suits with a coat on this style. Severity seems to be the strong uote for waists, but they must have particu lar style, which is, of course, hard to attain, although it lies greatly in the placing of the trimming. Buttons are all that is considered correct on many of them. The Illustration shows a dress with a plain but smartlv cut waist buttoning up the front with cloth-covered but tons. The side pieces of the waist con tinue on the skirt and form a side yoke. The completed costume has an unusual style and charm which is ac centuated by tan prunella cloth in which it is made. An extremely cunning little hat is worn with this dross, shotvinp a sailor shape with a rather high crown narrow inn slightly at the top. It is made in sand-colored taffeta ami trimmed with ft single baud of chocolatc-colorod vel bej ribbon, ending in short streamers in the back. It has very good style ami in conservative gocd taste, a quality which American women demand before all others. The second illustration shows a dress with the ever-fashionable surplice clos ing waist. The s'-drt is gored with the stylish flare at the lower edge and the waist is cut slightly short. The braid ing en the waist and skirt is done with the round silk braid, which is having a vogue even stronger than the soutache braid. The separate blouse is made on the same severe lines of the bodices of frocks. ! he.v are made of crepe de ( hine arti voile end chiffon cloth over a thii* -ilk lining.

Cheviot is the novelty, and a very practical one. Checks in black and white are shown ; in a variety of materials, also dark blue and white. A very fine invisible check is considered very smart, it comes in many smooth fabrics, like prunella and novelty chiffon broadcloths or lady's cloth. Of the heavier cotton fabrics, a cot ton gabardine stands among the first sellers. This fabric has a high lustri and is very effective. Materials with a corded effect are used fdmo»t more' than anything else for dresses of either heavy or sheer weight. The lightor weight first introduced by French and English manufacturers is called "fllete." And, hence, any fabric with a corded weave, such as voile or crepe are said to have a fllete finish. Voile is the most fashionable of the cotton fabrics, be cause of its softness and its durability. Dotted Swiss and marquisette are two other materials which rank very close in popularity to voile. Net in black over white satin or taffeta as well as white and colored nets are very smart for elaborate frocks. Pink and blue nets make delightful evening frocks and are trimmed with jet. Tho styles of the summer dresses make it a certainty that embroidery and laee flouncing will be used a great deal in their development. The embroid ery flouncings have a background of voile and crepe as well as very sheer lawn and batiste. Organdy, too) is em broidered and makes a light and airy flouncing for summer dresses. The Belgian lace centers are produc ing uo lace and the French very little, so most of the imported lace" comes from Plauen or St. Gall. Chantilly, Spanish and Lire laee-are among the more expensive ones, while shadow lace may be had in a wide variety of de signs and prices, and its light and deli cate designs make exquisite frocks for evening wear. Belts and girdles are forming an im portant feature on the gowns of to-day. .Some are plain, and of the fabric of the dress it is worn with, others are of contrasting material and embroidered richly. Some of the girdles are ex tended in to what seems like peasant's basques, or wide girdles, lacing up tho back or front, nnd pointed or rounding, made of contrasting silk or of velvet. Ribbons, especially of velvet, are having a strong vogue, as they seem to belong to the crinoline period from which so many spring dresses are de signed. The hats of the year continue to he mostly small, although a few largo ones are to be seen, and very smart they are, too. This vogue for small hats has made the veils extremely popu lar, and they are shown in numerous styles. The wide floating veil which comes almost, if not quite, to the shoulders is very becoming and popu lar. These are in different meshes, plain and dotted and usually have either a bias told on the edge or a nar row piece of ribbon stitched on. 18-year-old Slayer to Prison New York, Feb. 26.—After admit ting that he had killed the slayer of his father, Matthew Amato, 18 years old, was sent to prison for not less than ten and not more than nineteen years and six months by Judge Mulqueen in general sessions yesterday. lie had pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the first degree.
