ble to imagine just how far this sudden tage for spangles will go. They are, as I said before, seen on almost every garment, but the most of them have been small and of brilliant luster. Now wo are shown disks nearly an inch in diameter. These are strung on strings and then pressed flat against the material whereon they are to he displayed, one overlapping the other. One dress had clusters of three lines, each four inches long, set at irn gular intervals over the dress skirt. The center lino was set

These large spangles arc called sequins, hut are made of burnished metal and have blue and green lights. There wore but two clusters of these spangles, one on each side of the waist, almost touching the draped belt. On the front of the waist were two narrow lines of mink fur in points. The rest of the waist was entirely plain. At the neck was a stock of green silk muslin. There were lace caps to the sleeves. The pattern in this lace was followed with green and rnssot red floss silk, and it made a very effective arrangement. This gown was intended for a visiting costume. The dainty little bonnet worn with it was of natural straw edged with pink pearl beads. On the front was a very full peasant bow of, lace, above which were sot several tulips and their
buds.
These short capes are made of two circles, cut down sufficiently to bring them even, ami the upper edge is then plaited to the small round yoke. They look well, but are small protection in a
windy day.
I saw another very striking and stylish outdoor costume. The skirt was of the heavy ribbed crepon in two shades of brown. The skirt was a medium godet style. The two shades in the crepon had a sort of underlying greenish bronze shade that showed fitfully between the seal and tan and made it very rich. With this was worn a tight fitting jacket of tan cloth box stitched on each | seam. Down each seam there was also ' a piping of bias brown velvet. The pock- 1 ets were postiche and partially covered with velvet There was a brown velvet yoke on the jacket which was perforated in a fancy pattern. The cellar was of the tun cloth paitially covered with velvet, and this collar ended with rovers I trimmed in the same way. There were perforated velvet plastrons on the sle< ves too. The bonnet was white chip, border- i ed with fur and having black tips nud gold colored aigret. So much for out
of door apparel.
For homo attire there arc many beautiful things, the newest of which are the sicilieimo and figured poiodechevre. Brilliautine is also shown as the foundation of many of the newest gowns. It always was pretty, and it is prettier than ever now, as the finish is finer and
more lustrous.
There was a gown of dark gray brilliantino made with a very much distended skirt, plainly finished. There was a crushed belt of ruby velvet and a trimming on the waist made of ruby velvet ribbon. With tnis was a slashed collarette of ruby velvet. The sIloycu were simple gigots. This goWn had an elaborate appearance, while in reality it was of the simplest The ruby ana gray make an excellent combination for any one young eiftragh to bear it. The other gown for home wear was of cadet
The uses to which it can be put are practically endless. Sometimes mats, valances, brackets, borders, curtain ties and the like are made simply of the molds covered with stitches in crochet and sewed together with tinsel, while sometimes the shapes, variously covered, are merely used as a trimming to articles made of plush, velveteen
ir felt.
Reed and bead work is also popular. This is an
imitation of tho .Japanese reed curtains w i t h hanoino waste paper which we are all holder. now familiar. For blinds and similar uses a heading is made in macramo twine, and from this depend many long ends of the same twine, on which tho reeds and beads are threaded in various simple or elaborate designs. This also is easy work, hut its after uses are some-
what limited.
But wo do not wish hero to merely enumerate the different kinds of work, but in addition to mention one of several fancy articles illustrated and described especially for Good Housekeeping. This article is doubly attractive because useful. It is a waste paper holder, a hanging ono and made on a new principle. The foundation is a square of stout card measuring about 18 inches, lined with sateen, covered with a bright cretonne and joined into a ring. Further, a circle of the same card, similarly lined and covered, is needed to servo as tho bottom of the case and of equal diameter-•■that is, six inches. This cir1 cle is to be joined into the cretonne ring 1 with a tape hinge about an inch long. I On tho opposite side to the hinge is one string of gay ribbon on the bottom of the holder, and another, about half an inch above it, on tho cylinder. These, ; when tied, keep tho bottom and the contents in tho holder. When untied, the , waste paper falls out, and tho holder is I emptied without being moved from its place. A fine cord, of colors to accord with those of the cretonne and sateen, is carried around to conceal tho seams, | and a loop at the top serves as a means
of suspension.
[ Special Correspondence. J Lake Charles, La., April 1.—The south is waking up to its possibilities with an energy that is likely to make New England’s thrift pale before it. The development going on throughout tho southern states is nowhere more clearly exemplified than hero in Lonisianu, the land of the Acadian and creole, of easy going plantation life and of French blood. Tho northern immigration has transformed its towns, business enterprises and social life, bringing out with distinctness its rich natural resources and waking it to the chances that await intelligent endeavor. Nowhere is this seen more than in the lumber industry, which has suddenly sprung into prominence. Throughout the state’s history its magnificent hard pine forests have stood unnoticed; tho massive trees, straight as the most perfect arrow, with clear, clean trunks reaching high in air and the symmetry of their forms marred only by tho festoons of Spanish moss clinging to tho branches, have attracted no woodohopper, nor have tho now reaid eioes of southern cities drawn upon them for material, it being rather the policy of j

They may be short or long, double or single, but they will never leave us while tho sleeves keep their present dimensions. They are too convenient, too
easily made, to be soon discarded. Velvet seems to be tho popular mate-

freight and handling.
Here at Lake Charles have been erected 1’1 sawmills, and at other points along tho gulf are a dozen more, all busy slicing up tho magnificent hard pine logs into lumber of assorted sizes and for various uses. Up in the northern part of the state are tho forests, and they are a sight to make the builder’s heart beat faster. Nowhere can be found handsomer, straighter trees, and with their roots fastened deep in the rich southern soil they are standing thick and erect awaiting the Woodman’s ax. Thousands on thousands of acres are covered with available wood, and tho gangs of choppers make but small im-
Styles In Evening downs. Evening gowns aro of every description. These may be elaborate and expensive, with very low cut bodice and only an apology for sleeves, or simple and inexpensive, with neck and arms in part or wholly covered. Light silk and wool eropniis aro pretty fur tho last named, but there is quite a fad now for satin gowns, which can ho made effective without much trimming. For very young ladies translucent materials- made up over silk are popular. A gi »wn reniarki d for its simple elegance is of white gauze, overlaid with stripes of light green. Tho bodice is cut to display the neck, front and back, but the shoulders are covered, and gauze sleeves of peculiar construction in part expose, in part conceal, tho arms. Sashes are very popular, again, particularly when they arc of tho new chine ribbons. The inside rultlo or bulayeuse has given place on many of tho new evening gowns to a box plaiting of wide satin ribbon, which imparts additional stiffness to the bottom of the skirt.

SPUING CAI’K OF VELVET AND CHIFFON ing skirts, lace, chiffon and jet arc the most fashionable trimmings. Tho full neck rneho takes the place of the high flaring collars of tho earlier season. Tho tendency is toward single cap.'s rather than double ones, and these aro made very pretty with frills of lace and spangled yoke collars. One recently made for spring wear and illustrated in j the New York Sun is a singlo capo of black velvet fitted on to a yoke which : reaches to the shoulders and (its smooth- j ly. Below this falls a trill of black ao- j cordion plaited chiffon a little more j than a quarter ot a yard in depth, which i is also carried down cither side of the j front and caught back at intervals like a jabot Over the velvet yoke is another ; one of beads and spangles, and around ! the nock is a full ruche of chiffon. An- | other style, which is at least novel, makes tho ruche-tbo predominating feature and the capo simply a necessary attachment. Spring jackets are to he much shorter than those which arc now worn, and golf capes of serge, with their bright plaid linings, will bo as popular and useful as ever

White is not good on a wall. It is too cold and cheerless, although it has the advantage of increasing the apparent sizu of a room. The same magnifying influence can be had with any bright tint of yellow, terra ootta or ivory. The
owned by one company are so extensive that a gang of choppers might begin at one side, and reaching the other side the trees would bo large enough in their track for them tocommenoe over again. A lumber camp of Louisiana is entirely unlike the old time camps in Maine, New York or Michigan. Now tools, modern inventions in saws, grappling hooks, etc., are used throughout, and railway trucks, roughly laid, but sufficiently smooth to allow of flat car passage, aro pushed into tho very heart of the woods. With their branches festooned in tho pretty Spanish moss tho trees make cathedral like arches for the tracks, and there is over the entire enterprise an air of romance and strangeness that seems utterly foreign to so
prosaic a business as lumbering.
Once ready for the mill tho huge trunks, straight and uniform, 30 to 110 feet long and 3 feet in diametor, are made into great rafts in tho bayous or slow running rivers, and tho noisy little tugboat sets to work hauling them to the mill. Puffing along between over- \ hanging, moss draped trees, with its slow moving burden of timber kept in lino by energetic raftsmen, it makes a pretty picture. When arrived at the “boom” before tho mill, the logs are herded together like so many animals ready for market and await their turn of
a most curious contrivance.
This consi«fs of a long trough loading from tho water up a slope to tho end of the mill. An endless cuuin, with projecting irons, runs along its deepest
How to Tcftt lllauk Silkt*. The drawbacks to black silk goods have always been a matter of notoriety To name only the most important of these, black silks are liable (l) to become greasy after a very short period of wear; (3) to cut ^t the folds; (3) to crease in a manner impossible to get rid of by any subsequent treatment These remarks apply even to the highest qualities of black silk goods. In the case of tho lower goods it is not an infrequent thing to find them go absolutely rotten after a comparatively short period of wear It is a mistake to estimate the value of a piece of silk by its weight, and yet what method of judging is more commonly employed by the public, and even, though to a more limited extent, by tho trade? For the general public there is only ono certain anil complete test- to find out if a piece of black silk is overweighted by foreign substances or not, and it is ono which is much loss widely known than it should be. says an English draper who suggests this meth od: Take a sample ot the silk and burn it. If it burns readily, to a crisp, brittle ash, gray black m color, then the public may ho assured that tho article is pure ami dyed with a vegetable dye. If, on the other hand, tho sample burns with difficulty or smolders slowly, leaving a suit and dusty ash, red or reddish brown in color, the public may be certain that the goods are overweighted with chemicals and foreign substances and accordingly will not stand fair wear and will lose their appearance at a very early period.
