Guy uuarly uttered a rude exclama tion, but he smothered It and resigned hlruelf tci the los of another oppor tunity.

There was a ball that evening, so he certainly would get Grace alone at one portion of the entertainment. Itoy would te lu bed, that whs one thing to be thank ful for, aud old I.yttleton was nobodv.

Iii dress accessories, the le9 notice able details that go to make up the perfect whole, there are numerous In novations on which the well dressed woman always wants to be posted. Yet fo often does the trend of fashion vary that eveu the most vigilant sometime finds herself outstripped lu the acquire ment of the latest Ulcus. I.lueu colored hose, for instance, In line Willi tiie llueti colored gowns of last sciloiii, and to match the linen ox fords, of which shoe manufacturers are preparing so large a stock for the spring, are Ihe latest Innovation. They are much talked about as are all nov t itle, bur It is impossible to tell us yet wheiher, tlje Idea will assume the pro portions of n definite fashion. Hut one wauls lo Vosscss a pair or two Just to prut'c one known what's what for the moiiictii. Again iu the matter or bells the pos tilion belt is the requisite for the sea son. No matter what the fabric the tabs are a necessary fruture. They nre of all length;, from three or four Inches to the full depth of the skirt. In width and number they differ ac cording to Iho taste of the wearer. Some bells huve onjy two, others six nul ,even. Sometimes the tabs are at each side, and eveu In front they have uiade their appearance. As to mate rial, silk Is the favorite; taffeta, peau do sole, moire, brocade, anything, so It Is llk. The tab belt, however, is nlso seen iu material, velvet cloth, etc., to match the gown, but belts of slik are worn with anything. The neckwear the present season Is 111c of extremes. Keither small, line like effects in collurs. or those of broad cnpellke outline nre in vogue. Modera tion is not at all stylish. Some of the lace collurs have ends extending below the waistline, and broadening at the tips. In veilings, and the veil Is Indispen sable at present, the effects lu greatest vogue are unique lu mesh or design,' but black and white are displacing the colored materials and colored embroid eries. However striking the hat the veil is 110 longer considered to be lu good taste If highly colored. As for glovts, one can hardly wear white glove nt the wrong time, l-'rora the early shopping tour to the opera or dinner It reigns In one shape or anoth er. The modish white glove Is white Ktltclitd now, and few colors bear auy but their own shade on the back. I'mbrellas have been said to possess II tie character, ns they are u necessity rather than an ornamental adjunct. But the woman of Individuality ex presses it In this detail of her tout en semble as well as in nil others. There nre dlstfnct fashions In umbrellas, but there Is always sufficient latitude for the display of personal taste. The pref erence now Is for a tone similar to that of the gown, and In bundles the tend ency is toward simply chased silver and gold, or the natural wood. New York Tribune. now la Walk Gracefully The introduction of common sense shoes ami garments; for women has placed within reach of almost every woman the ability to acquire a graceful and natural carriage uud a manner of walking born of freedom of movement. Whutever may he said in praise of the girl of grandmother's days, she could lot huve been graceful, arrayed 11s she was in hoopskirts, her bodice tightly laced, and her feel cased iu slippers with ridiculously high French heels. There Is nothing that distinguishes i l girl so much as nu erect and natural carriage, a good poise of the head and grace of movement. Yet a correct age can be acquired Willi ease, though it requires lime uud patience to perfect It. It will seem ditlicult at Urst uud may prove fatiguing, cut It ui- perseveres, grace of nature will become second nature. The correct standing position Is one In which tiiii weight of the body Is thrown not ou the heel, either wholly ir in pari. b'.H wholly ou the ball of Hie foot. The heel should lest lightly in the tluor. The hips rholild be thrown back, the chest elevf.ted ts nr.teii as possible, and the head raised, with the -.-bin uot thrust out. but drawn In. When 11 correct str.i.diag position has been acquired, ll if 11 comparatively simple mutter to walk lightly and gracefully. Wbcu tiie weight Is oa the Icel a heavy, Jtiri'lng walk Is the result. The heel should come iu contact with Iho floor 11 in. but if the weight Is on tflf ball of the foot tho heel will come down as lightly as a thistle-down. Kven when the heaviest of shoes, with thick Holes nre used, the step is light and graceful. The li'rl who praetice: walking thus will soon become uncon scious of her feet, a state which ter tr.iuly approximates the jierfectlou of grace. Womcu walk far too rapidly for ;rnce, und ouuiy enough a siiort woiuuu always walks more quickly limn ft tall one; whereas a slow, -itudled walk Is her only salvation. A great authority has been heard to say thut " a woman who holds herself well never passes uupereelved." The most perfect costume falls of Its effect when woru by a woman who walks and holds herself badly. New York American Making Haau, Tt ts the old conventionality that the business of woman is always to make a home for man, and that man's sphere lies always outside the homo that causes much of the modern woman's discontent, and against which she pro tests. The purpose of all training, she Insists, is to push the boy out Into the world, und to keep the girl In, and It Is from this luequallly and Injustice that she demands emancipation, says tho Gentlewoman The view ia a mistaken one, however, the final object In the education of both exes being the saino to fit them fo(lth modish maid la apt to welcome, living at home. 1 This hi lorgnette mirror, or rather .

If the aim of the parents Is a mis taken one, It is nt least applied Im partially to both sexes, so that there can be no valid claim of injustice on the part of either. If, as the great majority of the world believes, the first duty of woman is to the home, the trainixuavof the man con templates also the same duty for him. tinrt Way ' Tying; Her lull, Have you noted the new fashion In which our young wear theJr sashes this winter?

But, after all, the chief reason for trying n sash In the new way the loopless tie nnd hard knot Is that it happens to be the height of tho style. So after that we may say no more for or against ' Philadelphia Itecord. ritfalla of the Slant. The slottt woman, alas! can never indulge in that dearest thing to wom an's soul, free scope In the matter of dress. There are so Mry pitfalls te be avoided thut when she takes her foot out of the sund" she Is very apt to "stick It In the mud." In dodging the Scylla of a big hut she knocks against the CharybdJs of a tiny turban. Both look equally ridiculous. She must be severely commonplace. The stout woman, sad to say, generally has a reckless passion for plaids nnd con trasts of all kinds. But she must con quer her love of color uud striking effects. She must clad herself In sober grays nnd dark shades. Above all, she must abjure fancy neck dressing, and leave her waist line to the Imagination of the beholder. If It Is any consolu tiou to the afflicted one, she may know that she probably will keep .her youth ful face years after wrinkles and crowsfect have luhl their hiiavy baud ou her leuuer sister. Millinery Far Old Ladle. Bonnets for the older women do not change so much In fashion ns do those for their daughters. However, the change from narrow high shapes to' low broai' ones, und vice versa, is so noticeable in the course of a couple of years that it Is not possible, as many women believe, to weur the same bon net year offer year with only the re furbishing of some trimmings. Just now bonnets are very low nnd broad. Hows or wings of feathers or Jetted lace are so arranged at the sides that they frame the face quite thor oughly, und nothing Is allowed to stand up except perhaps an aigrette or little jetted points. For half-mourn- lug dull silks and uncut velvets are used, and trimmings of the pretty woven black silk braids are much iu favor for elderly women's sowns. Harper's liuzar. Tha Popular Scarab.
