I NEW YORK FASHIONS. | H Designs For Costumes That Have Be- §| II come Popular in the Metropolis. M NEW YORK CITY (Special).—The shape, material and trimming of jack ets are the topies that are uppermost in the feminine mind to-day. Two popular novelties appear in the JACKET NOVELTIES. accompanying cut. One is in dark brown cloth, criss-crossed with nar row lines iu white braiding bordered with yet narrower lines iu black fur. These cover the sleeves, lattice fash ion, as well as the jacket. The fronts are tight-fitting and have a line of scallops down the middle. The basque is scalloped as is the high, rolling collar with its finish of narrow black fur at the edge. Tho other jacket is in bright blue cloth and its front fastens over a narrow vest-like piece in scarlet cloth, stitched in dark blue. Continued upon the shoulders this vest expands into quite a shoulder cape. The foundation of stitched \VAIsT.-i APPROPRIATE TO THE WHITE REaSON. cloth is fairly concealed, however, by the broad inner facing of ermine. Ermine forms the very collar. The sleeves have cuffs in stitched red cloth. This mode of jacket is pecu liarly chic and may be reproduced in any combination of colors or ma terials. Adaptable Waifltfl. The group of waists illustrated in the large engraving affords a good ecope to the clever woman. Either of the ideas will serve for a cotton waist, and as the coming season promises to be a white season, theso stjlc3 are particularly adaptable. Any other material would serve for the severe shoulder yoke indicated in one of the models; tucked lawn with a dainty lac>i or embroidered edge would conceal the connecting line be tween yoke and bodice, and if properly made a waist could be produced at a moderato prico that would greatly please the wearer. There are two or three ideas which can be taken from this one model which the quick eye of the designer will lecognize. The second model in this group would act well as A midsummer de sign. The insert in the front would be of allover embroidery or very fine lawn spaced with Valenciennes inser tion. The remainder of the waist could be closely tucked and the wide scallops that outlino the iusert would have a straight line of insertion banding the edge. It is not necessary to confine the de ' sign to single tucks. Narrow, that is, one-half inch box plaits, would produce a beautiful waist. Of course, fine shir ting could be used in these soft waists, but shirrings aro so difficult to launder that uuch a gamsnt is not favorably received. #i, "*-* "*"* Cnpeline rint* in Felt. White felt capclines are worn this season. The shape is very elegant if It in allowed to droop sufficiently over the eyes and at the back of the hair. The smartest of them will be trimmed with a twist of black panne around the 3rown and a large bow of the same silky material pieced somewhat on the brim in front, the ends curling toward the back. In order to make this hat rest veil upon the hair it is necessary to run a couplo of handsome pins through the brim at the back. Some of them are attached with a jeweled bar, which is both novel and effective. The large blue turquoises, which are coming into fashion again, will look well upon these white hats. Plain Jewelry Is the Fashion. Many of the most expensive jewels are the most simple iu effect. A big gold-brown diamond set with a few small white stones is a pendant for the neck and worn on a slender chain of platinum, which is hardly visible cn the wearer, and which gives the ornament the effect of being a plain bit of jewelry, but its price is elab orate. The pins for chatelaiue watches when they are studded with gems m.va a platinum foundation, as in ornaments for the hair and corsage, and whiuL i3 almost invisible. New Slilrt Waists. The newest shirt waists have three narrow box-plaits on either side of the front, each covered with lace or embroidery, and small tucks fill in the centre of the back. A yoko in the back is no longer considered in dispensable, and tho prettiest are made without this ugly feature. Tucking: in High Favor. Everything is tucked. Silk waists have long been tucked crosswise, lengthwise, on the bias and in the lattice-work pattern; cloth has beeu subjected to the same process, and so has filmy chiffon and even velvet, though it is a pity to distort velvet with tucking. As Many Color# as Joseph's Coat. There is no shailo nor color which flannel may be dyed which is not made into shirt waists. A Comfortable Chamber Kobe. Illustrated herewith is a chamber robe portraying just the right air of comfort without the negligee ease which is so often too evident in gar ments thi.t must serve for the break fast rocm as well as the seclusion of one's rocra. The feature that tends towards ob viating tlm objectionable point with many, is the cape collar and high stock. French flannel builds the gar ment, which falls loosely from the neck and i3 drawn to the figure by a heavy cord of wool that encircles the ■PBENCn FLANNEL CIIAMBFK KOBE. waist. The only trimming features are the blocks around the cape, cuffs and stock, which are bound with satin ribbon headed by feather stitching. > [FOR WOMAN'S BENEFIT, ji > Scented Pillowa for the Hair. Very little perfume is used any longer on the hair, for all essences contain a per cent, of alcohol that if applied with auy regularity will whiten the younger locks, so there has been found a very ready sale for the small sceuted pillows that French women use at night, in fact, always when reclining, in order to convey a fresh odor to their hair without doing the locks any injury. The pillows are flat, thin, satin covered sachets, incased iu fine white linen slips and meant for use upon the big, down stuffed bed pillow. One Girl's Secret of Ilnppf ne«». A charming girl said to me not long ago, smiling at what she called her foolishness: "You know I never be lieve a rogue is a rogue until he is fully proved to be one; even then I am apt to try to persuade him be ia not." That was, I think, one secret of her wide, strong, helpful influence. Try each morning as you waken to select some ideul of girlhood, aud try to live up to it aud fulfill it through out the day. Try to trust your selves. Try to trust others, and let them know that you trust them; for a word of love becomes of itself au ideal to live up to and an inspiration. I think I can promise tlmt those of yon who have lost your ideals and ambi tions can regain them by just such simple methods as I have spoken of. —Ladies' Home Journal. liaby'* Clothing. An infaut's clothing consists of a flannel binder, lawn shirt, flannel bar row aud a flannel or cotton dress, ac cording to the season. A child that is delicate should never be allowed to wear anything but wool. In dressing a baby see that the binder is not too tight, for safety pins would press aud hurt the body. Tbe flaunel barrow should be long enough to turn up and cover tbe feet, so as to keep them warm. It should be pinned with safety pins. Very long and heavy embroidered robes and cloaks are not good for babies, as tbev are too heavy. Often tbe babies of the wealthy are too heavily clad and they would be much better off in tbe short gowns and soft, woolly garments patronized by poor mothers than they are in all their finery of which the nurse feels so proud when she carries them out to take the air. Always sleep with tlie window open a little bit at the top both summer aud winter, unless there happens to be a thick fog. Much of the headache aud lassitude felt when getting up in the morning would be avoided if peo ple would determine to sleep with a little bit of the wiudow opeu. ICntimrled llutterfliex. A woman of taste has carried out an idea wholly her own. She has always bad a passion for butterflies aud iu her collection are many of tbe rarest and most beautifully colored speci mens. Whenever she liuds one that especially suits her fancy, or has at tached to it some pleasant association, she sends it to an euameler in London nud be makes a facsimile of tbe speci men. Tbeir fantastic shape aud brilliancy combiue to make tbe butter- Hies excellent models for this particu lar kind of workmanship. With won derful fidelity they are copied, and even the transparent quality of tbeir wiugs is effectively simulated. They are finely mounted, so that by pinch ing their wings together the sharp gold claws beneath fasten tightly to whatever they are placed upon. It would be equally feasible to have them made into hairpins, bracelet dangles aud clasps for veils. This particular womau, however, who lias perhaps forty of these en ameled beauties, wears them iu but one way, as shoulder clasps on her ball dresses, or placed diagonally across the front to represent a flight of the gauzy insects. Slie has one complete set of yellow butterflies, nud they are held in reserve to be worn with soft, white gowns. The largest ones are fastened on the right shoul der and from there they decrease in size to tbe waist line. Another flight includes every color of the rainbow, and for them bodices of a more sombre hue are chosen as a background. Wonderfully effective also are two very large and quaintly formed sapphire blue ones that were worn as decora tions for a yellow crepe gown. Winter Millinery Style*. Aigrettes of different colors have putin an appearance aud there has been a complete renewal of the stocks of fancy feathers. The latest novel ties in couteanx are extremely wide, some being nlso very long aud curved almost iuto a circle, and others short, frequently mounted iu pairs; the lat ter, to make them sufficiently wide, ure frequently composed of two feathers gummed together. Those which are shot in two colors are in special request. Then there are many novelties in paillettes, the base cov ered with smart plumago and tho ex tremity with half a dozen small cou teaux, iu wlii 'li different sorts of nat ural colored feathers, those of tbe pheasant, partridge, gray secretary bird, lophophore and peacock are ar ranged in various combinations. Be sides these long paillettes, thero are short, squat ones, more commouly called "ears, ' covered with breast plumage only; their form is not ele gant but their coloring is often very effective, aud as they aie good wear ing trimmings, they are chiefly used to deck every day bats aud toques. Toques entirely made of feathers are to the fore once more. Tbey are gen erally made of lophophore or eccre tary, but also often of bl own plumage. In isany cases their only trimming ia the bead of the bird, just raised above the foundation of plumage. How ever, variety is obtained by the use of "ears" in plumage of a contrasting tint, aud sometimes as many as fout or five of these are inserted here anil there, but always slanting back from the front. Some use is also made for simple millinery of what it is decided to call "felt ribbons," but what is only wide strips of felt with raw edges, supple enough to be tied into any kind of bow,through which a con tean is generally stuck. — Millinery Trade Beview. Colorado Women lawmakers. "Tbree seats at the right of the centre aisle iu the House of Bepre sentatives iu Denver, Col., are re served for the women members of the Legislature." writes Mary H. Kinkaid in Ainslee's. "The places are the most desirable in tbe handsome legis lative chamber. It has been noticed that the women are seldom absent from their places. The Story is told that during a previous session one ol the women members failed to appeal at her desk for a week. Owing to all previous records for conscientious at tendance, the vacancy caused much comment. Finally, one of tbe oldest meu of the House mustered up tbe courage to make iuquii ies of tbe otbei women. " 'Where is the Hon. Mrs. Blank?' he asked. 'We have been missing her and we hope she is not ill.' " '111? No, indeed,' said one of the Mrs. Blank's women colleagues. 'She has a new grandson, aud she is so proud she has beeu staying home a few days just to rock tbe cradle.' "It is unnecessary to say that tbe happy grandmother's bills were not attacked during her voluntary deser tion from tbe ranks of lawmakers. "Notwithstanding tbe fact that some man offered the sarcastic toast to women, 'Once our superiors, but now our equals,' women are treated with the same courtesy aud consideration that was accorded them before they entered public life. Smoking is not indulged in on the floor ot the House, and no turbulent scenes have been recorded since tbe establishment ol equal suffrage. If there is any lesson taught by the changed political con ditions in Colorado, it is that men will always pay to the true woman the deference aud respect to which she is entitled. When the first fight for equal rights was made, it was the fashion for well meaning agitators to picture man as the enemy and op pressor of woman. Beceut history in Colorado lias proved that men are not only ready to give women tbe privil eges they covet, but that men are glad to show women how to use those priv ileges. "From tbe point of view of tbe 'practical politician,' women are not altogether satisfactory us lawmakers, because they refuse to be whipped into line for party measures unless the measures happen to appeal to tbeir sense of right. It is this indifference to tbe party lush that makes it difli cult for a woman to be elected to a second term iu tbe Legislature. So far tlie members have been contented to retire after one term of service. Ka;'h lias determined to earn tbe ver. diet: 'She has done whnt slie could. - Unlike the majority of their col leagues, tbe women have an idea thai some one else can carry out tbe work they have begun. As the women in variably are on the side of nil measures of a philanthropic or reform character, tbeir party affiliations count for little if in conflict with their sympathy or sense of justice." Hits of Femininity. There has come a perfect craze foi scarfs of all kinds. Tiny velvet bows decorate many o! tbe imported evening waists. Fur buttons for cloth or velve garments are new and much affected. Some of the prettiest yokes of houst gowns are formed of old-fashioned lace collars. Panne velvet and satin blousei paiuted by baud are a late novelty foi tbe theatre. White corduroy aud white velvet een are considered especially smar for shirt waists. Some fetching new cravats showi are of black and white Cbautilly lac« woven together. Tbe craze for jeweled aud cut crys tal buttons us accessory to the fane; silk waist, is still ou. Great boas of white fox and whit« muffs are fetching accessories to 1 driving or evening frock. The very prettiest thing in muff are those made of baby I'ersiau laiul with black chiffon ruffles. Sealskin and broadtail or baby Per sian lamb is made up n tbe lates m jdification of tbe Eton jacket. Charming little boleros are thos. fashioned of the Paisley aud ludi cashmere shawls of our grandmother'' days. Side combs nre uo longer worn, auc in their place come two combs for tin ba k of the liair, to be worn out übjve the other. Au exquisite material is the new satiu cloth, which is cloth on tbe un der side aud satin ou tbe right, aud ii as soft and pliable as cashmere. A rival of the popular bolero is tli« short Directoire. This has doitbU or triple revert), is cut in short jacke' sides over a waistcoat, and has coa' tails in the back. Klch Copper Deposit. One of tbe richest copper deposits known iu the South lies in Person couutv, N. C. The uiiue is taking out about 100 tons of ore a day. This ore, when cobbed—that is, picked for shipment— will average 30 per cent.of nouoer. CARTER'S INK Have you tested it— No other ink "Just as good."
