TIIE WOMAN OF FASHION. Timely Fanoles for Pretty Forms . t, and Fair Faces. Xlie Untimely January IlarKaln Days and the Wo© They Ilrlng—Some New Thing* In Underwear—Something to Tempt I the Frivolous-Minded. I tcOPYRIQHT, 1896.] Now is the time that the poor man thrusts his hand into his empty pockets •and asks himself and the attendant )ftites why things are as they are, and wherewithal he is to be supported for •the next few months while he pays his Christmas bills and makes uj> the de ficit occasioned by the season of bar gain day. ] It is to be deplored that January bar gains cannot be postponed till summer , —which is as consistent as wanting jOne's ice cream hot, by the way, but ■l'm sure there are plenty who will agree 'with me. If one takes the merchant's [point of view, it is easy to understand .that he has a lot of sorry-looking, dog .eured holiday gifts left on his hands which are as useless to him and as uninteresting to the general public as yesterday's daily paper. Naturally he wants to get rid of them, to get them out of sight of his holiday befagged talesmen who are ready to show their teeth and growl at the very mention of Christinas. j Then there are the thousands of yards of fail and winter goods, the icoats, and cajws, and separate skirts, I 7 . I " | FOR TUB VBrVOLOVS ' ' !that will either be moth-eaten or out of fashion before next winter, and the endless supply of underwear that gets badly soiled and shopworn with con tinued handling. The underwear question is a study, and there are a great many sides to it. Just us the conservative woman has 'succeeded in overcoming her prejudice against what she considers an innova tion, and has at last adopted the union suit, she Is confronted with the fact that the long-loved chemise is the fash ionable thing and union suits are "old." jThen by the time she gets back to the (old fashion it has become passe, The only way to do is to try both and sec whioh you like best, then stick to it. ,Jn general, the tailor-made girl pre fers the union Ruit because it offers no unnecessary bulk to Interfere with the perfect "fit" of her dress. i The girl with ruffles and plaits and frills above her gown usually likes them underneath as well. Indeed, even jthe tailor-made girl finds it hard to resist the filmy laces and microscopic tucks that grace the different articles of underwear nowadays. Some of the tucks suggest long seasons hi the clois ter where those block-veiled nuns stitch and stitch away at frivolous garments for the uneonsecrated, and then one re members the new machines that are so finely constructed as to lay tucks no wider than n hair's breadth. Such tucks, alternating with strips of fine livcc insertion, enter the composition of chemises, drawers, fine skirts and night gowns and it is difiicult to say wihich ore the most alluring. ' Rome find it hard to choose between the mull or cambric petticoats and those mode entirely of silk. A compromise which was pretty enough for a ball gown was pink silk with a veiling of tucked white mull and lnee. Both the silk and the mull skirts run up to fabu lous prices, and the cheapest are hard ly to he had at less than four dollars. The plain silk Rkirts have a flounce with several rows of wire cording to stiffen them, and these are really more useful than those made of mull, which ure so fine and soft that nobody would thin* of starching them enough to fill out the present dress skirt. All skirts are gored and sewed to a yoke that is two inches wide in front and nnrrows gradually towards the back. They fasten with a drawstring as do also the garments beneath. The last mentioned articles are usually very wide at the knee with n ribbon run through to make tliein as tight as is de sired, leaving a long flounce below that suggests the historical pautalet. These and bloomers do not go well together. The large dress sleeve has given the chemise its opportunity. Beneath the silken (or woolen) expanse there has hitherto been n vast cavity which is now filled with tlio ruffles and frills and flaps of the chemise sleeve, At the waist they nre cut so ns to fit the figure moderately well, and the materi al Is usually so soft that It does not take up nrtiich room. _ fiut of nil (hi? WQmap's lingerie that ; is Hung 1 up to tempt the frivolous mind ed, there is none more fascinating than the night robes. Most of them are made without yokes—sucli as have them are cheap. There is no visible means of fastening, but the tiny pearl buttons are concealed beneath a flounce of em broidery or lace up the side of the front, for few of them fasten in front. Some have long revers sloping into a broad collar and these, of course, fasten un der the chin. There is a fancy to make the front slightly low, like a square necked dress, with an embroidery or lace heading. The sleeves are large and puffy with a ribbon at the wrist to draw up the flounce that fulls over the hand. It would be impossible to describe the many different styles of trimming. Suf fice it to say that the more fine tucks, the more ruffles and lace and embroid ery one puts oil, the better. If you buy these fancy garments readymnde they are very expensive, and if you try to make them there is hard labor before you. but the reward is in the loveliness of the result. Whatever may be said in favor of the above-described underwear, one Is force-i to udmit that it is not suitable for outdoor wear in the winter time. When one begins to think of skating or sleig.;ing or tobogganing, one's mind turns yearningly to thoughts of union all-overs and woolen stockings. It is the underwear that must be most, care fully attended to when one goes skat ing, for outside wraps are cumbersome and pievent that freedom of motion which is indispensable. Very few of the skating costumes seen on the Ice have uny more than a fur collar around the lieek. Here Is a pretty suit which came out with Hint January cold snap that froze toes and noses BO regardless about r week ago. It is made of brown cloth with an eight inch strip of Corsican fox around the bottom. On tlio right of the skirt are four metal buttons simulating a fasten ing. The fur collar Is adorned with tails, and the astrakhan toque has an aigrette aiul a chou of cherry colored satin, which gives just the bright touch that is necessary in a winter costume. JJut when all is said und done, and though one may have the prettiest cos tumo ;n the world, If ono liuve not grace and good hea'th one cannot hope to look attractive on skates. ANNIE LAUHIE Woons. An Obliging Irish Uullroatl. At Westport, on asking why the train did not start, seeing that it was a quarter of an hour after the time named for its doing so, the answer I re ceived was: "The engine's gone cold" —doubtless during a warm conversa tion between the driver and some of his friends—and a lady who was in the same compartment with me und over heard the remark told mo that 011 the previous day a station master had said to the driver of a locomotive, as he Steamed in and drew up at the platform: ''Where's your train?" The man had come without it. I Buppose these casualties cause inconvenience some times, but tliey contribute diversion to irresponsible travel. Moreover, one sometimes reaps advantage from a free-and-easy system of locomotion. .When going from Galway to Itecess by ■the new light railway I wanted at, Oughterard to look at the river, but feared I should not be able to do so in the time allowed for our halt.

Ilia Way Out, The zeal of certain commentators, who "hold their farthing candle to the tun" with so much learning that they overlook plain statements of their text, is well satirized by a story of a cer tain actor, who brought out "Ham let" with many erudite variations from the usual customs. For one tiling he dressed Hamlet in a red cloak. "Why do you do that?" he was naked. "Because red was the mourning color of the royal house of Denmark."

(V EVANTS' circus was at one time Jfl A the most popular faff? 9\7 1 °f any* And the '.-S most popular member of it was la Roeie Mar ton. Even now the pco pie hold her up as a standard b y which to judge merit. Bill Berrill was the clown, and a good clown he was. Everyone said that up in London or any of the big towns Bill—"Little Bandy/' as he was christened on the bills—could have made three times the money. But Bil] preferred to remain with Levants and near Rosie. Leo Corello was the lion tamer. The man who had held the post ever sincq Levants first took the road was dead. Leo came over from the continent after the vacancy. lie gave a rehearsal, and was offered the post on the spot. But the salary was too low. Leo prepared to return. Then he saw Rosie—and stayed. With all the troupe Rosie was a favorite. When her mother had died, leaving her a mere helpless infant, the company had held a solemn meeting to decide as to her fate. The manager solved the problem. "We're none of us rich enough to adopt her entirely," said he. "We'll limit the liability, and collectively act as her parents. % Rosie shall be the daughter of the troupe." As it was his own idea that had se cured Bosie to the troupe, old Ted Pass more, the manager, had been informal ly constituted her guardian. And onq rule that he made was: "No getting engaged or anything of that sort till she's 20 and knows her own mind." It was on the very day that she at tained her score of years that Bill Ber rill made his formal application for her hand. Thankful he was that the time had arrived. Leo Corello had grown to be a veritable nightmare to him. Net that he doubted Bosie—the truest little girl man could love. But the lion tamer's growing admiration was so very ardent that Bill felt all the easier when she was promised to him. For, of course, the application was granted. That evening Leo Corello was in grand form. They were performing in one of the most important towns on their list, and the circus was packed. Leo outdid himself. Unarmed, without even whip or stick, he played with his lions as if they had been kittens, and sent cold shivers through his audience with his intrepidity. "Isn't he splendid!" It was Bosie herself who said so. The clown, standing beside her, frowned. "Fate has given him a better part than mere fooling to make people laugh," said he, with a touch of bitter ness in his tones. "Do you admire him so very much ?" Bosie turned. Her cheeks reddened with her indignation. She held out the hand on which glistened tho ring he had just given her. "You haven't much faith in me," she said, her pretty face looking pained. "We shan't be very happy together after all if you are jealous because I give a brave man his due." "Forgive me, Bosie!" exclaimed the clown fervently, as ho kissed her hand, and, hearing the bell, bounded into the ring. Then came Leo's chance. "Little Randy's" turn was a long one. As tho thunders of applause subsided the lion tamer moved to where the clown had stood beside her. His flashing eyes glowed with excitement as ho asked; "Mile. Bosie, how was that?" "Splendid!" said Bosie, again. "Do you know why?" asked he, as, delighted to hear her words, he cam", closer to her. "I was thinking of you, and love made mo laugh at lions." "Sig. Corello, you must not talk to me like that." And, plaj'fully, she held out her hand once more to show her ring, and point ed archly to the man in the sawdust circle. Leo's face darkened. "Have you given yourself to that?" ho sneered, looking contemptuously in the direction of the grotesque figure posturing in the ring, and added: "1 love you. I will leave here to make more money. Soon I can have a circus of my own. You shall be its mistress, with no need to work, a carriage to ride in, and everything else your heart can want. Throw over this clown. Think of all that I am offering to you. Mile. Bosie —be my wife!" Bosie Marton, her eyes shining, stepped back from him, shaking her head. "Thank you very much, Sig. Corello, for your magnificent offer. I decline it." "You want your tackle left up after the performance is over, so that you may practice in the morning? Only mind what you're doing, Bill Berrill. This lofty tumbling that you've taken to is a bit more dangerous than clowning, | and now it's fixed we don't want your wedding day postponed." So said Teddy Fassmore. Tho clown promised to bo cautious, and in the morning repaired to the circus to have a turn on the ropes. | Bosie was waiting for him. Profita ble as it was, she had a dread of this new item that her lover had added to his repertoire, and so went with him, "so that he might be safe," as she said. "Sig. Corello passed me coming ; along," remarked skc, as the clown let himself into the great wooden building | with his key. Hut when they got in side and no one appeared both felt easier. Merely discarding his coat, up ho went on the ropes and in midair went through his perilous tricks. Bosie sat on a sack of sawdust below, trying to read a newspaper and wishing that tho rehearsal was finished. Suddenly from above came a shout, fiho ntv-"*ed to her feet. "Run, Rosie, run I To the window I The lions are loose I" Run! She was rooted to the spot. In the doorway by which they lind en tered crouched a great, tawny, yellow moss, that, flat upon the boards, came wriggling without a sound toward them. Down tho rope Rill Berrlll slipped, as Rosie, recovering her strength, started to the back of the hall. The lion rose up. It took Ave quick strides, then stopped as, with a thud, Rill Rerrill dropped 011 to his feet. "It is locked, and I cannot reach it," cried the terrified girl, as she stretched in vain for the fastening of the great window. The clown turned. As he took his eyes from its face the lion came on. If he fled it would be upon him in a mo ment. Then, close at hand, he saw the sponge set on a stick, the matches and parruffine, used by the gasman with which to light up at night time. "I dare not move!" he cried. "Bring me the tin of oil and the matches." The escaped lion saw the movement It crouched as if to spring, its great tail sweeping the floor from time to time. Tottering in her fear, Rosie dragged to him the precious tin. The clown, never taking his eyes from the great yellow orbs that glared at him, pulled out the cork. The liquid oil ran freely. Bill Berrill struck a match and threw it clown. A stream of flame shot across the boards. A low growl issued from the throat of the startled lion as it backed before the wall of fire. "Now! The window!" In a second lie had hoisted liosie up. The catch was undone. She scrambled out. Bill Berrill followed and closed the casement after him, just as the lion, dodging round the fire, leaping to the place where a second before they had been standing. "Be careful, Will. Somehow I do dread to-night's performance. There is something the matter with Corello. The house is crowded, but he is not him self to-night. Do be careful, Will, dear." Bill Berrill promised as he squeezed the little, cold hand of the girl who, to morrow, would bo his wife. After the lion-tamer's performance there was one more turn, and then he went on. "That's funny," observed Ted Pass more as the clown passed him. "Close by where your trapeze ropes are fixed two panes of glass are gone from tin} roof I" Directly his portion of the programme had come to an end Leo Corello hurried from the building. Bound to the back he went, where, in a narrow street full of gaunt, tall houses, ho rented a top story bedroom. To this room he as cended. From the mattress under the bed he drew forth a long, dagger-like knife contained in a leather sheath. Testing its keenness, he cut easily through ;J ptick of wood he drew from the ready laid fire. Armed with the knife, he threw up the window and passed out on the leads. Before him, almost on a level, was th< glass roof of the hippodrome. Through the open window the firs' notes of a merry tune came from th band. A cheer of welcome greeted "Little Bandy" as, for the second time, hq bounded into the ring. In a trice hq was hoisted to the trn.peze far above. One or two graceful evolutions, and then, hanging by his hands from the bar, he commenced to swing to and frq for a long flight in midair. Suddenly there was aery from above, a shriek from a woman and a chorus of alarm from the crowd. One rope had snapped. Still grasping the woodeq bar Bill Berrill swung far out into space, where, if he fell, no friendly net would catch him. BILL BERRILL BWUNQ FAB OUT IJITO SPACE. "Hold for your life," shouted Ted Tassmore, as, with a dozen others, he ran into the ring to try and seize the end of the fallen rope us it swished fu riously here and there. Then, as all eyes were turned upon the figure of the man swinging and re volving with dangerous violence in the air, another cry went up. Through the second small opening In the roof a human arm was protruded —an arm whose hand grasped a gleam ing blade. The rope, stretched at tension, length ened. The knife had cut one strand. Crash! Down came a pane of glass. An Iron support gave way, and then, with a clatter and a smash, a hole opened in the roof and the body of a man fell headlong down—down on the sawdust of the ring. The body rolled over, revealing the dead face of Leo Corello. A minute later, as hand in hand Dill Berrill and Rosie stood together in the ring, a thunder of applause went up, and their lingers pressed unseen a? they bowed their acknowledgments, and in their hearts returned thanks tc Providence for the strange passing oi this shadow from their lives. lllu strated Bits. BEAUTY IN THE BUSH. Australian Types Becoming Fa mous the World Ovor. Girls In tho Antipodes Imitate Their EugiUli Sisters—Art, Literature and Drama Are Unexplored by Thriu. A good deal has been written about the American girl, the English girl and the girls of other countries; but the Australian girl, up to the present, hns not come in for much attention. Per haps it is, says London Sketch, that, coming from English stock, she has al ways been regarded as too essentially British to be dissociated from the daughters of John Bull. Yet she is a distinct species, as different from tho average English girl us the American girl. In personal charms she possesses all the attractiveness, but, owing large ly to the prevalence of sweltering suns and parching hot winds for eight months out of the twelve, her face has not that freshness, that pink, rosebud coloring which ore at once the joy and sovereign possession of the English girl. But it Is in the exquisite contour of her figure, in the smallness of her hands and feet and in the perfect molding of her features that the daughter of the sunny south is able to hold her own. If her face lacks the freshness of the green fields and pastures of England there is in it the warm sun of Australia, which gives to the countenance a look of perpetual pleasure. The small but clearly chiseled features of the Austra lian girl are always pleasant in expres sion, indicating a light-hearted, care less, irresponsible character under neath. The innate shyness of the English girl has 110 place in her temperament, nor does she pay much regard to the culture, the self-contained dignity, the gracefulness which sit so easily 011 the girls of the west. The unrestrained spirit of an independent democracy seems to be ingrained in her. She is essentially sociable; indeed, the life of the average Australian girl seems to be made up of a round of social func tions—balls, "at homes," parties. She elevates gossip to a fine art, and in the little world in which she resides she will >e possessed of an encyclopedic knowl- TYPE OF AUSTRALIAN BEAUTY. edge of everybody figuring- in social circles. She achieves distinction in volubility. "She can talk, but she has 110 conversation," as Mrs. Allonby re marked. To her, art, literature, drama and polities are unexplored regions. Dress is the dominant note of her char acter. And in this, aj* in almost every thing else, she is an imitator. There is little original about the Aus tralian girl. England is her fetich, and particularly the English fashion jour nals. She will wear cumbersome and trailing skirts under a pitiless sun, and with t he thermometer over 100 degrees, if they have been worn in England. And in her a flections she dearly loves an Englishman. She doesn't stop to in quire about his character; if he conies from the old land he has the key of her heart. But, above all these super ficialities, which are unavoidable in a new country, rough and uncultured, there is much that is good and useful and practical about the Australian girl. In her domestic qualifications she is un approachable. Ilard-working, indus trious, economical, capable with her needle, good-tempered, and, above all, generous, the Australian girl makes an ideal wife. As the artistic and refining influences of the old world become more and more ingrained in the people of the vast southern continent, the Australian girl, by her grace and winsomencss, will be come a keen competitor with her Ameri can cousin for recognition in the social spheres of London and Paris.
