Very frequently a full ruffle of the dress material, about four inches deep finishes the neck of blouse dresses.

Journal. WHAT AN ENERGETIC WOMAN DOES. - Mrs. Jane Fraseur Safley, of Tama County, Towa,is the owner of 1040 acres of fine prairie land and does her own farming. She sold $5000 worth of fat cattle, $1205 worth of fat hogs and $450 worth of horses last year. About 800 acres of ber land is in grass, the balance in oats and corn. Mrs. Safley has at- tended every school election in her sub- district for twelve years, and, while re- fusing to be elected director, has univer- sally voted for director and, according to the Tipton Advertiser, secured the best man for said office. The same teacher has taught her school for eight consecutive terms. Mrs. Safley’s only son, Fred, is a graduate from Cornell. NEW GOODS FOR REAL SUMMER.

Among these one is dice patterned in straw color and black,another in old rose and black, which is both novel and striking. Another rather curious ma- terial is of olive green patterned with heliotrope, with a woven border of black: ribbon, which 1s everywhere outlined short zouave fronts to the bodice, while the underbodice and sleeves are of olive green bengaline. — Frank . Leslie's Weekly. CAN'T READ A NEWSPAPER. Queen Victoria isn’t allowed to handle a newspaper of any kind, or a magazine, or a letter from any person except from her own family, and no member of the royal family or household is allowed to speak to her of any piece of news in any, publication. ~All the information the Queen is permitted to have must first be strained through the intellect of a man whose business is to cut out from the papers each day what he thinks she would like to know: These scraps he fastens on a silk sheet, with a gold fringe all about it, and presents it to her unfortunate Majesty. The silken sheet with gold fringe is imperative for all communications to the Queen. bi Any one who wishes to send the Queen a personal poem or a communication of any kind (except a personal letter, which the poor lady isn't allowed to have at all) must have if printed in gilt letters on one of these silk sheeis with a gold fringe, just so many inches wide and no wider, ali about it, : These gold trimmings will be re- turned to him in time as they are expen- sive, and the Queen is kindly and they are imperative.—Fashioa Bazar, ABSURD HEAD-DRESS. Stewart, the great hairdresser, says: At no period in the history of the world was anything more absurd in head-dress worn than at theclose of the Eighteenth Century. The body of these monuments of ugliness was formed of tow, over which the hair was turned and false hair added in great curls, bobs and ties, and powdered to profusion, then hung all over with vulgarly large rows ot pearls or glass beads, fit only to decorate a chan- delier. Flowers as obtrusive were stuck about this heap of finery, which was sur- mounted by broad silken bands and great ostrich feathers, until ‘the head- dress of 3 lady added three feet to her stature.” Imagine the discomfiture of people who attended the play and wished to view the stage! Three feet of finery hiding from sight the very thing one came to see, In this-era of tiny theatre bonnets the picture drawn by the famous Btewart reduces to a minimum the 1n- consideration on the part of our women of to-day who but yesterday, or quite recently, wore the broad flaring street hat to the theatre and expected the people sitting behind to dodge about ,in order to catch an ‘occasional glimpse of the play and suffer from a crick in their necks for days thereafter.——New York Commercial Advertiser. , = WOMEN Ag. DOCTORS, Tk cranks. The prejudice against them entering the medical profession was almost universal, and strange as it may they should be specially fitted and in even more profound than the same pre- judice among the sterner sex. Bat steadily, though. slowly, public senti- ment has advanced to accord to women the obvious just right of entering any of the prolessions, and women now prae- tice both law and medicine in every sec tion of the country. The progress of the age in advancing women to their just rights in the battle of life was impressively illustrated in the Academy of Music during the last week, when forty-two young women appeared upon the stage as graduates of the Woman's Medical College, of this city, with their fairly won titles of Doctors of Medicine. It is gratifying to know thal this college has been in existence for forty years, but it is only within the last score of years that it has been able to present anything approaching a gradua- ting class respectable in numbers. Now womeL practitioners are not only known but respected in almost every community, and the success they have attained in the profession more than justifies the great battle that was fought to win for them open doors to distinction in the profes- sion. : It will seem strange to the readers of history half a century hence to learn that women were excluded from the profes. sions of the country until even after th: noon -tide of the Nineteenth Century, for there is little reason to doubt that in physicians will fairly divide the medical practice with their professional brethern, and men. physicians, in’ the many cases in which every consideration of delicacy should prefer a ‘women physician, will be quite as uncommon as women wera generations ago.—Philadelphia Times. FASHION NOTES. For skirt and blazer white pique 18 g preferred fabric. Yachting suits of burnt sienna are sidered very natty. Corded challies sprinkled with flowers are a summer novelty. : All white costumes are’to be more pop: ular this season than ever. Field thistles nod from the top of the most fashionable chapeaux. Fine cloth with close upstanding cords of contrasting color is much seen in the shops. : Mantles are made in the visite form, aud are of fine cloth in light brown, electric blue or terra cotta. Hats are a mass of flowers these days, and the art of imitating nature is frait- ful of most charming results. Short sleeves have again returned for dinner and theatre toilettes. Sometimes lace is ruffled at the top of the gloves, and often gold bracelets set with prec- ious stones ara worn on the arms. One of the most distinguished and stylish costumes of the season is a lug- trous black silk gown, jet trimmed, with tan parasol, tan suede gloves and tan. colored velvet ‘‘calf leather" shoes. A tea gown recently seen was of old rose bengaline, trimmed elaborately with embroidery, the front made loose, the back en Watteau, a full frill about the throat and point lace edging the sleeves. The Eton jacket has been sadly abused by foreigners in its makeup. Some. times a garment is called that when it has long coattails, whereas the veritable ¢Eton” should not come below the) waist. : A pretty tea gown recently worn was of heliotrope crepon, made with a close fitting coat back, opening over a frout of yellow trimmed with gold aad pearls, the sleeves pendant, with rufl:d under- sleeves. ’ A Russian coat to be worn for travel. ing is made of green cloth, drawn inio the waist with a leather belt, the sleaves ending in a band at the wrist, and em broidered like the collar, in blue, yellow and red, large buttons and loops of yel- low fastening it down the froat. Fur is as much used on - evening dresses as in midwinter, and especially on the new changeable velvets. A hem of fur borders the skirt and defines the neck and sleeves. Chinchilla, otter, blue fox and black fox are the furs used. Neither flowers nor ribbons may be worn, but a bertha of lace frequently falls be- low the fur. The outside of some of the new packet- books represents more value than the in- side. White ivory and white kid with silver or gold mountings, gray suede with a covering of woven steel, and lizard skin in dull green with gold fili- gree decoration are among the novelties, Heart-shaped purses are newest, and in every case the purses must match the cos: tume. : ; con materials, Black satin hats and bonnets, wraps and gowns are decidedly fashion: able abroad.
