WaoMia' fifcitt. The skfll shown by American women in nearly every department or creative art; save that of musical compoeition, seems to increase constantly. This is especially noticeable in literary work. Bar short story of to-day compared - with her short story of the past reveals wonderful improvement in conciseness, construction, and freshness. Intellectual forces are at work to balance the excess of imagination and the overmor- . badness of sensitive women who have a . talent for story-telling; The result of this is gain to the periodicals. It is not now the exception for a woman to write a good newspaper article; it is rather file rule; and if the true inwardness of many a newspaper office were known it would be found that a fair share of the best work is done by women. To a lesser degree the same observations Jkold good in novel writing. Unvarying oonscientioasness and steady improvement mark most of the novels by onr women authors, and the uniform tone of their books may be set against the variableness of most of oar mascu- - Hne writers.

The simple food, d ally bath, hours sf ent out of doors, on foot or on horseback, am uneventful life, give them sound stomachs, hearty livers, and tranquil nerves, and the beautiful coloring u a matter of course. It can-, mot be said too strongly that health is the only safe renovator of the complexion. Cleanliness is the one universal cosmetic. And if the women of this generation have lost their freshness through' carelessness or ignorance, or spite of climate, they can at least rear their daughters to preserve that inher- . itance of beauty to which most Ameri-

face of the public. On the deck of the
steamer, on the rail car, in the seclusion of ma's parlor, in the crowded drawingroom, on the promenade, and in the
traffic of street travel, she claims him to have and to hold. "Pre-empted" is

A few days ago a young couple sat
together ii a street-cnr, and, without
lowering their v.iiees, told their love in unmistakable language. When the young man reached the street where ho lived he gave tbe young lady her parsol, shopping-bag, and other traps which he was carrying for her, and, holding out his hand, wished her a
plaintive good-bye, adding as he
reached the door, and the car waited: "I will see you again." "Let it be soon," she urged with an anxious inflection of voice. The inference which was conveyed to the amused passengers was that the
youth would hurry home, snatch a
mouthful of supper, make a hasty toilet and appear at the residence of his idol within an hour or two at the latest It reminds one of the couple who
spooned along, repeating their good
byes until the clock struck the hour of
midnight, and the young man felt compelled to go.
"When shall I see you again ? asked the girl, anxiously. "To-morrow," lisped the ardent
youth, with reassuring promptness.
"Must I wait until to-morrow? - Love is a delicate and elusive thing, and shuns the gaze of strangers. That which passes for it, and flaunts itself
in the public face, is not love, but its counterfeit, a metal of baser mold.
Mski"g love in public furnishes amusement for the people, and degrades
a lofty principle into a sordid spectacle. Young men do not take the initiative in
making themselves ridiculous. Gal
lantry is so much a part of a man's nature that ho can put his soul in his eyes when he is talking to any woman and make her feel that she is the only one of her sex in whom he takes the slightest interest He may wear his love on his sleeve, but it is not the real sentiment only a "decoy duck" with
which to lure other game. But with a
young girl it is quite different She is in awful earnest Her whole tender, susceptible nature flames in her cheeks and looks out of her eyes. The world may see it and she not care.
"Kan's love is of man's life a toing apart, Tla woman's whole existence.'' But the world is t censorious judge,
not a kind guardian, and it ridicules
her pretty passion, and voices again the old contumely : "Wait awhile. " 'It would be rather lonely in the overfull desert of social life, if the married and unmarried lovers should suddenly efiace themselves by ceasing to wear their badges of love eternal and unchangeable, and conduct themselves like the vivisected members of society, who get along after a fashion without hearts. The dove-colored bride who addresses her husband of a day as "hubby," and is overheard saying to him: "Nobody would think we are just married, would they, lovey ?" would really be missed. And the girl with her first beau, the youth with curly hair and china-blue eyes, who says "ma" and "pa," if you pull the conversational string, would leave a vacuum if suddenly withdrawn. But it would be better for the dear young people themselves, for they are really casting their pearls before an animal that is not metaphorical, and which will assuredly turn and rend them. Howells, who makes love like a philosopher or a butcher, has some of his characters seclude themselves in a park. Suicidal idea. The "burning deck" would be less public and more sentimental, with the' rippling waters beneath, but it would indeed be a robust passion that could survive either situation. We could only suspect a seasick avowal from the one and triangles and parallelograms of affection
from the other, (juris, never accept a
man who would propose to you in the

UtUlcrin'j bmt tulgmr. A fashion writer avers that she lately saw a lady at a public table whose gown scintillating with jets, was cut open and square over a snowy bust,
where reposed a string of diamonds
and a string of pearls, with a brooch
and pendant of diamonds; in her hair a bandeau of brilliants glittering in the shape of a comb; huge solitaires depended from her ears; diamonds again
sparkled on her wrists, while her hands
were literally loaded with sapphires and rubies and emeralds and . opals
ana diamonds; sue guttered au over
like the night ; she reminded one of some rare show and attracted almost as much attention. Yet this same glittering individual used her handkerchief vigorously and for a long time together on her nostrils, scratched herself without reserve, and picked lionea with her fingers, making as much display of her bad breeding in one direction as another. Our young people cannot too early be taught that simplicity of dress in public is as important and as evident mark of good breeding as quiet be-
' is.
A BAlllCAh VCltE. Doctor Crawford, of Baltimore, is related to have advised a patient, who
fancied he was dying of liver disease, to travel.. On returning he appeared to
be quite well, but upon receiving information of the death of a twin brother, who had actually died of a scirrhous liver, he immediately staggered, and, falling down, cried out that he was dead, and had, as he always expected, died of a liver complaint Doctor Crawford being sent' for immediately attended; and, on being informed of the notion which had seized the hypochondriac, exclaimed: "Oh, yes,, the gentleman is certainly dead, and it is more than probable that his liter was the death of him. However, to ascertain the fact, I will hasten to cut
him open before putrefaction takes
puce." He called for a carving knife, and whetting it as a butcher would when about to open a dead calf, he stepped up to the patient and began to open his waistcoat Tbe hypochondriac became so terribly frightened that he leaped up with the agility of a rabbit, and crying oat "Murder! murder! murder!" ran off with a. speed that would have defied ft score of doctors to catch him. After running a considerable distance, until he was almost ex- ; hausted, he halted, and not finding the doctor at his heels, soon became cora- : posed. From that period this gentleman was never known to complain of his liver, nor had he for more than
4 twenty years afterward any symptoms
of this disease.

SOME LATE DECREES OF FASHION.
What to Wear and How to Wear ItStyles in Ccslumes, Hats, Bonnets, Jewelry, Me., Sic,
Italnbow Storking. I (wish I could stand a few of our great-grandmothers in front of a ceriain window on Broadway, devoted exclusively to hosiery, says a New York letter. Such marvels ! They are real works of art Imagine ft scarlet silk stocking with a black beaded serpent twisting around its entire length, with the reptile's head resting On the instep ! Another pair of light blue, with pink moss rosebuds embroidered all over; yellow silk hose, with butterflies of
natural size in all colors of the rain
bow; white silk hose, with beaded stars,
and those of blaek silk, with the instep
composed of the richest white lace ; a
pair of pale green hose, with simulated pink ribbon bows up the front Yes, I
would like to show all these wonders
to the dear old ladies, who thought they were well supplied in winter with three or four pairs of gray woolen stockings of their own knitting, and in summer a lialf-dozen pairs of plain
white ones with a woven red band at
the top. Indeed, we have only to go back to our own childhood for this last style, with a pair of "open works" for
Sundays. There were handsome black
silk hose with red lobsters embroidered on the instep, while others had a big green frog, with bead eyes, with his opera hat on, all ready to "go a-woo-
ing." We do not lack for novelty and the workmanship is exquisite, but for myself I prefer something more senti
mental than these last, even in hosiery.
I draw the line at lobsters. Since the washable knitting silks have been manufactured, many young ladies have revived an almost "lost art," that of knitting their own stockings. It is pretty and convenient fancy work. They wear better than thoso made by machinery and are much less expensive. Some of those I have described cost $20 a pair. I know a young lady who has just completed a pair of black stockings, embroidered with pink rosebuds. They will last a lifetime.
For Autumn Irarcltng. Traveling dresses are made principally of plain woolens, plaid stuffs, and limousine, which last is woolen material of the natural beige, grayish, or ecru tint, with fine colored stripes. Whatever the malarial employed, the general style is always that of a tailor dress.
With a slightly shaggy woolen stuff
that has soft lights iu chestnut and oldgold a plain skirt is made, two yards and three-quarters wide around the bottom; the front breadth is longer than the others, to admit of being gathered up on both sides, and thus form a draped tablier. The jacket corsage crosses to one side, and has a turned-down collar, side pockets, and a small breast pocket for railroad tickets on the loft side. All the edges of skirt and jacket are bordered with several rows of stitching in old-gold silk. The
favorite colors for traveling toilets are all the tawny tints, all shades of brown, wood, and beige. When a plaid fabric is selected the costume is made of the plaid throughout. The skirt generally has the lines of the plaid taken bias and is plaited all around in free plaits that are held only at the belt The corsage is well corseted and very long in the waist all around. The sleeve is narrow at the top and terminates iu a cuff, and the collar is straight and wide. This is simple, serviceable, and appropriate, particularly if the plad has been carefully chosen in subdued soft lints. Not unusual is a traveling dress of plain serge trimmed with plaid bands ; or sometimes the two stuffs are more olosely combined, the skirt having plain plaits and plaid plaits alternately all the way around, with breadths of the plaid slightly draped on the back; the plaid corsage has sleeves of the plain fabric and plain plastron, revers, collar, and cuffs, Harper's Bazar.
riCEaMACK Of MIS IK "You want to marry my daughter, do you?" said the rich old parent to the gilded youth who had hovered about the front parlor persistently for the last three months, whether the gas was lit or not "Yes, sir," said the youth, apparently much relieved. "Very well," said the old gentleman with a self-satisfied chuckle, you can have her. Here, by the way, are a few of her bills, which I may as well submit to you now as at any other time." "Ah, yes," murmured the young man, not in the least abashed, "here are my bills too," as he pulled a handful of papers out of his pocket, "we'll just stack 'em up together and yon can fix it all up in a tamp whenever you feel like it Merchant Traveler.

lady bugs of red and black enamel, with golden legs and antennte.
Rubies arc extremely popular for rings, set with two diamonds of equal size on either side. These are set in
three ways, diagonally across the ring,
straight across, or in perpendicular line.
This last gives a greater appearance of slenderness to the hand. Two other new fancies in rings are a large shield of gold, which has a narrow light ring, the shield being thin and beaten into rough archaic figures in relief. The other is a largo oblong turquoise set around with a double edge of very small diamonds. Turquoise necklaces are coming into favor. New York World. J lain ana I'laia Vlotlit. Plain and plaid cloths will be seen together in autumn gowns in the way so popular for summer ginghams, satteens, etc., with the basque of the plain smooth-faced cloth, and the skirt with its, long drapery, of large plaided softer twilled cloth. This is prettily illustrated in a dark myrtle-green cloth basque inado single-breasted, short on
tho hips, with postilion plaits iu the back, and trimmed with gilt cord set on in a braiding pattern, forming two points below tho collar in front and two bjihihd i the high collar and the wrists Of the ooat sleevos aro also braided. The skirt has a green ground with large plaids of cronm, gold, and red upon it, and is laid in wido side pa:ts with a very long draped over-skirt, which hangs in full straight plaits down the middle of tbe back. Harper's Bazar. lfettu HtiUling Hresstts. At Mathilde's wo saw a very protty weddjng-dress, make of rich, thick, white satin, with a very handsome pearl panel let in at tho side, tassoled over with graduated drops of pearls. The bodice was V-shaped in front, with cuffs and collar of the pearl embroidery. The train was court length, and was bunched up at the top in a very pretty way.' Another wedding-dress that we saw in our peregrinations was a delicious thing. The front was all drape.l with white crepe de ouine, embroidered in silk very thickly at the edge, but more lightly as it rose to the knees. The overdress was short, and was made of white moire, fitting exquisitely at tho back, but with straight fronts lined with palest piuk moire. Two innovations in one gown, you see, and both most successful. There was a look of smartness about the short rectoire overdress that is quite missing from the trained ones. London Truth. Sotaltitt i Jrwrlry. White and wood violets are leading designs for bonnet-pins. Hairpin-tops of tins' ed silver wire are now occasionally set with garnets. A diamond dragon-fly makes a handsome ornament for ladies' neckwear. . A pretty combination jewel is a diamond crescent with' a star in the center. A double star set alternately with rubies and sapphires is a charming pattern for a brooch. A novelty in silver oaueheads is the face of Old Mother Hubbard, with an etched band beneath. A brooch consisting of an oxidized silver sun has a large eagle of bright gold flying toward it Silver parasol handles bear many handsome ornamental designs of leaves, flowers, fruits, and grasses. A tape measure in an ozidized silver case, ornamented with repousse work, makes an elaborate tool. A large opal sun, tho rays of which are set with alternate pearls and diamonds, makes a handsome pin. Grain-worked initials on oxidized silver match-boxes is the latest fancy, but a somewhat costly one. A tea service of oxidized silver in Moorish design and chasing is among the latest novelties in silverware. A miniature turtle, enameled in colors true to nature, with diamond eyes, is a pleasing novelty in brooches. Brooches containing hand-painted miniatures are becoming fashionable. Some are edged with diamonds. A peculiar biscui t jar is a peachblow vase adorned with" birds and flowers, and having a silver cover and handle. A ring of yellow gold recently made has on top a vevy finely executed scroll, in the center of which is set -a diamond. Spoons in solid oxidizjd silver have
the shanks slightly thicker than the handle, and bear a chased floral and shell design. A novel brooch is a bunch of richlooking grapes formed of several irregularly-shaped aniothysts, in each of which is set a diamond. One of the prettiest designs for chatelaine pendants is the Orient charm a number of stars and crescents cut in relief in a plain square of gold. The manufacture of enameled pansy ornaments has reached such a high degree of perfection that the work of the enameler can hardly be distinguished from the produot of nature. Jewelers'

Described by a "Coinp.' One day during the encampment the managing editor found he was short a man to report part of the proceedings oh the grounds. Spying the foreman bftho composing-rpoio, ho requested him to take notes of it company drill, and this is how he did it : "Promptly at 4 o'clock tho company marched upon the ground and wero received by a burst of applause. Immediately the father of the chapel called time and the foreman of the ooraEany began to call off by slugs. When e called out slug 1 they unfixed bayonets and kept on through the manual by numbers. The company was made up of numerous wrong fonts, there being a pica man alongside of a minion one and a brevier boy alongside of a nonparoil one. In Company front the line was very unevenly justified, there beihg a tlirevein space between some members, while between others there was a three-em quad. In platoon movements the fellow ho acted as right hyphen, slipped below the line and all three of the proof-readers commenced it mark errors. In wheeling left in circle one handful gdt badly squabbled, and when they went to call off a phalanx of four to send to the front and center the whole form got pied and the nroof-readers and copy-holders again
got their work in. In marching in columns of fours another bod company error was mode. Some thought they had got a price and a half table off the file, while others evidently thought they had struck four columns of figures and words and put in a period when they should only have used tt comma, in making time around tho drill grounds! When the assistant foreman was ordered to make up a fourpage form he made a serious error, having only a pica between two pages, while between others there was four-line pica. In marching in double rank the first three lines were solid, while the remainder were leaded and double-leaded, which is not in accordance with tactics. The foreman, assistant foreman, proof-readers, and copy-holders all had column rules, which some of them brandished finely. After the three United States proofreaders were through marking errors the company passed out amid a storm of applause. Time, 27 minutes, 1 1-64 seconds." And ha drank nothing but beer, either.

The Biggest Bell in the World.
The biggest bell in the world has been hung in Cologne Cathedral, and
christened "Uioriosa" py tne arenmsuop with great ceremony. This "kaiserglocks" (Emperor's bell) is Emperor William's gift, and is east from twentytwo French cannon captured in the Franco-Prussian war. It bears the German arms and two inscriptions. One, in Latin, expresses the Emperor's gratitude for the divine mercy in granting him victory ; the other, in German, declares: "lam the Emperor's bell, and I proclaim his glory. I fill a sacred post, and I pray Heaven to grant peace and prosperity to the German Empire.

"She's the sweetest girl in school!" enthusiastically exclaimed one young miss to anothor, as they passed down the street together. "Edith is so kind, and gentle, and unselfish, every one likes her. And she has lovely golden hair and pretty eyes. Isn't it a 1ity her complexion is so bad; it spoils her ooks. And then she has such dreadful headaches!" The girls b kipped along, but it happened Edith's mother had heard what they said. It set her thinking; What oonld be done for those headaches and tho rough, muddy complexion, that was such a trial to her gentle daughter. She recalled what she had read of Dr. Pierce's Golden Hedical Discovery, and on the spur of tho. moment she slipped into a drug store and bought a supply. Edith took it faithfully, with the result that it cleared her disordered blood, relieved the headaches, made her skin soft, fair and rosy, and now she is not only tho "sweetest girl in school" but the most beautiful.

A small boy not far from Boston was the other day guilty of some outrageous mischief which he performed alone in a closed room, but which was quickly brought to his door. When his mother remonstrated with the youth he met

"No," she replied, solemnly, "but God
did."

Moree's Favorlto Prescription is the outgrowth, or result, of this srreut and valuable experience. Thousands of testimonials, received from patients and from physicians who huvo tested it in tho more aggravated and obstinate cases which had battled their skill, prove It to bo the most wonderful remedy over devised for the roller and euro of suffering women. It is not recommended as a curu-al!, but as a most perfect Speciflo for woman s peculiar ailments. . . . As a powerful. Invigorating tonle, it imparts strength to tho whole system, and to the uterus, or womb and its appendages, in particular. For overworked, "worn-out," ''run-down," debilitated teachers, ralllluors, dressmakers, aeam8trcas. "shop-girls," housekeepers, nursing mothers, and feeble womon generally, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the groat-
est. earthly boon, being unequalled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic. It
promotes ingestion anu aseumiuuun ui iw.,
