Marcelllne fllace,
A serious rival to silken gauze, Lib

great favor, Is the new silken fabric
offered for use as cinplevements, yokes
nnil chemisettes. It Is almost ns ten
der and soft as mull, but hns a lus
trous sheen, with glistening surface.
This proves Immensely becoming to
t no majority of women. It smartens
up a toilet which would otherwise be
n dull black, The new silk is used ns
a chemisette, and nlo for undersleeves
when such are worn. Slender young
ftlrls wear folded belts of the snme
glistening material. It Is as cool as
sea foam in nppenranee.

How It Ftell lo Fall.
- Tho Swiss Alpine climber, Slgrlst,
who once fell from the top of the
Knrpfstock, In Switzerland, describes
his sensation while falling as follows:
"The plunge, which was taken back
ward, was iu no wise accompnnled by
the anxiety such ns ouo has when one
dreams of falling. I seemed to be
borne In tho most pleasant manner
gently downward and had complete
consciousness during the entire fall.
Free from nil pnln or fear I contem
plated my position nnd the future of
my family, which I knew wns assured
by the Insurance I carried. Aud this
contemplation wns accomplished with
a rnphlty which I had never before
known. Of the losing of my breath,
of which people tnlk, there wns no
suggestion, aud only the henvy fall on
the snow-covered .ground caused me
to lose consciousness. Tin' bruising
of my head nnd limbs on tho rocks ns
I fell caused me no pain. In fact, I
did not feel It. I cannot conceive of
an easier, pleasnnter death. The re
awakening, however, brought with It
entirely different aud far less agree
able sensations."
The town of Gloucester, Mass.,
