WOMAN' OF FASHION.

Somo of tho Queer Colors in Which Fur Now Appears.

How Convenient the Dyed-Crinkled Mongolian ISome Practical Cloaks for Winter Wear—New Gowns and

New Collars for Old Gowns.

IcopyrticrnT. liftfiJ.

You can get your fur now in all the colors of the rainbow. The Mongolian crinkled fur is dyed in all shades, and if you cannot find the color you want just order it. The poor animal whose coat has been ruthlesly taken from him never dreamed, I warrant you, that he •would come to this that his spotless white coat would flame forth in burnt gold, would flush a delicate pink, would change into a dull blue touched with yellow, or would turn green with envy of the other extraordinary shades. Yet so it is most of the pretty, light opera cloaks and mantles are trimmed with the Mongolian, and scarcely one of pure white all the fur tips shade off into some foreign color. One beautiful white brocade had a border of fur shading into deepest salmon color, and a silk lining of the same shade.

A mantle of bright chamois colored fuzzy cloth had this same fur shading from the chamois shade into dull blue the back of the wrap was draped, fall-

ing in long, graceful' lines from under a collar piece of fur that reached into a point almost to the waist line in the front the fur fell in a boa to the feet. The garment was lined with pale blue satin.

I also saw a coat for ordinary everyday wear, which is no common sight just at thi.s reckless season of tho year, when all the winter extravagances first appear. It was of heavy mixed gray, a pretty, light gray, and had two small box plaits down each side of the front and the back was belted in very loosely and fastened with little gray fur beads. The wide sleeves had two heads apiece, and the gray astrakhan collar, with deep pointed yoke, terminated in heads also. Such plain winter eoats as have come out thus far are belted for the most part, though so loosely that one wonders why tho girdle is put around. A splendid garment for fall climbing or country trumping is of extremely heavy brown cheviot, made also in box plaits, and has a full hood lined with dark tan silk the hood ties in front with heavy cords that have tan colored leather tassels hanging from them. Tho garment, falling to tho feet, is confined by abroad leather belt.

A mantlo that has a quiet, sensible look about it that is most pleasing is made of dark sago cloth, has a largo square yoko of rich black passementerie in the back as well as the front, and deep black fringe all around.

What plaids are being worn are larger than ever. Ono square of them would

be almost enough to cover tho back of a slender bodice, which may give you some idea of their size. Beware of the largo plaid, however, unless you are well acquainted with yourself and know just what suits you.

It is safer to combine it with a plain color. For instance, a gown just finished is of fine dark blue cloth and has a short empire bodice of orange bengallne and plaid velvet in tho brightest of Scotch colors^ The silk front is in the orange, the bodice in fine folds of tho plaid velvet, laid diagonally. The sleeves are plain dark blue. The dress is very bright and still very pretty.

Do royal purple and pale blue as a combination please you? Do you think them pretty side by side? No? And yet they are quite the thing, and have been for the past week. Oh, well, tastes differ, you say. True and equally true It is that there is a standard of taste in all things. And what I'm anxious to know is whether royal purple and pale blue make a pretty combination according to this same taste standard. Does anyone know? But perhaps you can rest content with being" jussured that for a

brief week or so, any rate, these two colors are the favorites. How long they •will remain so is unknown. Last week magenta reigned the week before—lei me see, was it blue, or brown, or scarlet? All of these hare bad their day, well aa a few more. But if you are wise, my fair reader, you will cot indulge In any of the queer or indescribable that oome or go in the World of fashion. For nxdtm ywar win

ter outfit includes gowns in large number you will soon gr6w very tired of striking color. Take any of the rich greens or browns or mixed dull colors and you will be far more plea^gd in the end.

But to return to my purple: I saw it in magnificent velvet, with just a touch of pale blue satin at the throat. I saw it in a qufeer gown where it played a less prominent part, forming the groundwork of the material it was almost hidden by big woolen dots, just like seeds, in orange the purple came out very dark, in a velvet box plait at the edge of the skirt, and in a plain round yoke at the neck the sleeves were purple velvet also. A full ruffle of the dress material went around the yoke, and the bodice proper was pulled into a purple velvet belt, giving it a very youthful effect, in spite of the glowing coloring.

I saw pale turquoise blue very becom

ingly

combined with purple violets in a tiny toque. The toque had a lace edge, falling over white feather trimming in front, and a full velvet crown in turquoise. At the back were small, white plumes, violets shading from pale lavender into dark purple, and velvet strings to match the deepest shade in the violets

Such a pretty gown walked into a theater box the other afternoon and seated itself with the complacency born of the consciousness of being perfectly made. It was of a dull heliotrope shade, all flecked with tiny gold dots, and the heliotrope thread was shot with pale sage. The dress had a full front of gold-colored bengaline, falling in cascades, and over it on each side more soft falls of sage velvet. Wide bands of sage velvet ran down the sides of the skirt and ail around its edge, headed by three bands of narrow gold and sage passementerie.

•i

little twist

of yellow £.Uk was put in at the base of the sage collar, dropping carelessly at the base of the neck and from the loose sage belt came two bands of the velvet, widening as they neared the baok, and falling when they met there, in along loose drapery over the train.

Do you know trfe names of the different kinds of collars? There's the empire, you know, and the Mephisto, and the Marie Louise. These are the most fashionable. Some very pretty ones can be made to brighten up an old garment that need® something to freshen it. A pretty empire collar is made of wide lace scalloped at each side, caught down all around the neck by rose-colored rib-

bon knotted loosely at intervals from each of the knots starts a small pink plume, each one standing up very straight. It narrows at the front and closes in a pretty V.

The Marie Louise has a Medici collar over a plain standing one. The Medici should be finely embroidered on velvet, and have a band of fur below.

The Mephisto has first a broad, long fur piece, lying flat over it in front is laid along point of passementerie then a standing collar is added of passementerie also. These collars give a striking effect, often, to something we had intended to cast off 'as old-fashioned, aa utterly useless because of its lack of style. Eva

HARP OF TARA'S HALL.

It Will Be Represented In Growing Shamrooks si the Fair.

The harp of Tara's hall, about which Tom Moore wrote, will be represented in green shamrocks at the world's fair. At Brooklyn there is a little girl named Eily Landwersiek who originated the idea. Miss Eily's father is a German, but her mother was born near the Hill of Tara, County Meath, Ireland. The girl is said to be an intense Irish patriot. She is a member of the Gaelic society of New York. At one of the meetings of the society two months ago a paper was read treating of the subject of an appropriate Irish exhibit at the exposition.

Nothing definite was decided on, but Eily's brain was at work. She had] heard of associations being formed by Irish men and women in Ireland^ in Australia, and almost every other part of the earth. While she heard a good deal about preparations she saw nothing definite done. Then she evolved a little scheme of her own and resolved to carry it out.

She wrote to the floricultural department of the world's fair and asked for space for fashioning with shamrocks a representation of the harp of King Brian Boru, the Irish king, who in the eleventh century drove the Danes out of Ireland. A few days ago Chief Thorpe gave her a plot eight feet square for the Irish harp. Miss Eily says she has secured a picture of the harp of Brian and has arranged for shamrocks from the hills of Tara. She will plant them next St. Patrick's day.

A Berlin letter says: Anew industry has been established in Berlin for cyclists. About a week ago several coffee peddlers appeared on the various streets in the laboring quarters of the city. These were mounted on bicycles provided with an arrangement for keeping coffee hot for several hours. They are not allowed to stand still* but must sell their coffee while in motion. They" have done a thriving business ail through the quarters where the poorer classes live, for the coffee is good and' cheap, one penny buying a tineupftil, and as they are constantly kept gtttng they coTer a vast amount of territory during the day.

MX. Gladstone Got Off Easy, as He Wa* TTI« Brother's "Fag"—How Lord Salisbury Escaped Cleaning

Mr. Gladstone's Shoes.

-i rCOPYRIGHT, 1832.1 iL,

Most people contemplating a debate in the house of lords from the gallery would be surprised to hear that a goodly proportion of the grave and reverend segniors engaged in settling affairs of state on th^ very steps of the throne were adepts at frizzling the toothsome sausage' and cooking the homelike "bloater." Yet so it is, for very nearly half of the peers of England, are old Etonians, and one of the oldest institutions still cherished under the shadow Df the distant spires and antique towers

BBOHJNG A HOMELIKE BLOATKB.

sacred to the memory of King Henry's shade is that of "fagging." The first and second day of every term, when the whole school has returned, a sort of slave market is held in each house, at which the upper boys have the privilege of choosing from among the lower boys their own particular "fag" for the .next three months or so. In some houses where the lower boys—that is, boys who have not reached the fifth form—are numerous, an upper boy may have two such servitors for his own exclusive use.

The right .of selection is exercised according to seniority, the boys known to be the quickest and best "servants" being naturally snapped up first, except in the case of new boys, whose looks have to be taken as credentials, as often as not, to the ultimate -disgust of the fagmaster, for the smartest, looking boys are very frequently the laziest at their work The duties of an Eton fag are many and various. Not a few of them would be declined by their father's servants at home as far too menial to suit the dignity of the modern James de la Pluche. The fag is responsible for getting his master out of bed in time for early morning school—a dangerous and thankless task to perform on a big boy who is a hard

sleeper and *ree with his fists, and quick at throwing shoes when once awakened, School over, the fag has to prepare his master's breakfast. He lays the cloth, makes the tea and toast—woe betide him if the latter be burued or cut too thick—boils the eggs and fries any extra luxuries in the way of bacon or sausages his master may send him to purchase in the town. The meal prepared, the fag is by no means free to go and get his own breakfast, as he has to wait at table, be ready to fetch hot water from the kitchen and, if or* dered, fly off to the town to one of the "sock shops" for a pot of jam or marmalade. Ho is a lucky boy if he can snatch a clear ten minutes for his breakfast before the chapel bell begins to ring.

The same round of duty has to be gone through again at sapper time, the only difference being that there is more time to do it in, and fagmasters are generally in better temper when school for the day is over. But fagging at meals is by ho means the only service which the lower boy has to render. He has to scrape tie mud off his master's football boots, to put his clothes away after cricket or running

with the beagles, and take notes tc other boys in other houses. It is strange to think if Lord Salisbury Had only gone to Eton a few years earlier than he did he might have had to clean Mr. Gladstone's shoes and run errands for his future rival. Mr. Gladstone was somewhat lucky in his fagging at Eton, as he "fagged" for his older brother Thomas, and naturally got let down easier than if he had been apportioned to some strange boy. The present duke of Marlborough— then marquis of Blaaford—and his brother. Lord Randolph Churchill, had the reputation of being incorrigibly idle fags* but when they choee to exert

themselves they were excellent cooks, and as such were much in request. It is equally difficult to imagine the dignified Lord Chief Justice Coleridge making toast and boiling eggs for his "master," but tradition has it that he was a most exemplary fag.

In addition to their regular daily work for their own master, the lower boys have to fag in a desultory way for any upper boy who may want them during the day. At the cry of "Lower boy!" shouted by any fellow above the lower division of the fifth form, every boy below the fifth has to scamper out in answer to the summons and the Undermost in the race is generally ordered off for whatever duty has to be performed. This is rather a hardship when a boy is busy preparing his lessons for school, but he would rather run the risk of getting into trouble in school than of incurring the wrath of a boy very little older t^an himself by "skulking.""

The head master's birch does not inflict such wounds as the vigorously applied toasting fork of an incensed faginaster. The most tedious of all kinds of fagging is to have to sit and read out the "crib" or translation to a number of upper boys preparing their Virgil or Thucydides. This duty combines all the irksomeness of a school lesson, with the disadvantage of learning nothing In return for it. When a lower boy has neglected his work and his fagmaster is not an advocate of corporal punishment a common form of "correction" is to send the offender up to ."Lay ton's"—a famous confectioner in Windsor—to fetch a penny bun during his play time. The length of the walk spoils the erring fag's chance of playing football or otherwise amusing himself with that particular play time, and he has to prove that he has already been to Windsor and back by bring the bun in one of "Layton's" bags. Sharp boys have been known to obtain a regular stock of these bags from "Lay ton's" on some •pretext or other, and, on the next Occa-

tsion when they were sent for the penny •bun, to purchase that comestible at one of the "sock shops" in college, and envelop it in the wrapper as evidence of a journey that has not been undertaken.

On the whole, Eton boys don't seem to mind fagging much, and the system at any rate seems to have the advantage of being the same for all. Every boy knows that though he has to fag at present, he is certain to be able to fag others in a short time.

RUSSIAN COURTS OF JUSTICE.

Administration of the.

law

Under

the

Alexandrian Regime.

Down to the time of Alexander II., says the New York Ledger, there was very little law practice in Russia out side bf the civil courts, as the criminal affairs of the country were in the hands of the government offleials

Alexander was a believer in open courts of justice and established them,

(after

great opposition on the part of tho imperial counciL Persons charged with murder, robbery or kindred crimes, great or small, are now tried in open court before judges who are paid 'by the crown, and forbidden to receive fees under any circumstances. There is a formal act of accusation the prisoner may confront aocusers and witnesses he may be defended the jury may be chosen from among men in comfortable circumstances, having an income of not less .than five hundred rubles (S250) a year and a majority of the jury can render a verdict.

Criminal practice in these courts gives the Russiamlawyers more business than formerly, and when the accused is a man of wealth, and the case is desperate, heavy fees are paid to counsel, just as in England or the United States.

It was hoped that the establishment of the courts would do away with the old abuses, but injustice dies hard in whatever country it may exist. Though the judges and jurors are forbidden to rcceive fees, instances have occurred in which they have done so, and we have already seen that exile by administrative process, without a trial or even a hearing, is a common practice in Russia.

Beanlted After Many Tears. A Bristol (Tenn.) dispatch says A well known gentleman from Franklin county, Va., who arrived in the city today, tells a romantic story Salem Wade is a negro who spent the past thirty-five years in the state of Georgia. Long before the war his master, a cruel man, sold him to a slave owner of the south because the negro had committed some trivial offense His wife belonged to the owner of another plantation, and they were thus separated. They never heard from each other. After the negroes were freed Salem remained in the south, supposing his wife dead. Last week he decided to visit his home. To his joy his wife was found, though bent with age She is seventy-six and he eighty-one. They had not met for thirty-five years. He went at once to High Cliff, where he had hid a stone pitcher containing fifty dollars in silver. It was still there.

THE DRESS OF WOMEN

f. PLEA THAT OUR SISTERS JOIN COMFORT TO BEAUTY.

Afeellsh the Corset and Many of tho Garments Which Now Weigh Down long Suffering Worn on—A Brooklyn Girt Offers Suggestions on This Subject.

Do serious faults exist in our present system of dress? Is correction of them necessary and desirable? Can we look lively and feel comfortable at the same time? Let \is consider these three vital questions.

Most women will confess to sudden and complete comfort when they remove their "things" at night and slip into a warm wrapper for a lounging time before getting into bed. Is there a woman in all the world who has not heaved a sigh of relief and filled the poor, starved bases of her lungs thereby, when an inordinately tight corset has been opened after half a day of compression? Surely every one has experienced a delightful sensation lightness and a desire for active movement in tho change from the innumerable trappings of ordinary attire to the bathing or gymnasium suit? Now is there not something radically wrong when our clothes are ever in the least burdensome or irksome, when to be relieved of them is to enjoy a mild pleasure?

I admit, and many other women admit, that our clothes are too tight and too heavy, and that their warmth is unequally and badly distributed.

The corset has deservedly received the brunt of all the censure and odium lavished by the medical profession on woman's abuses of herself. We are told that unless a corset is so loose that when removed not the slightest degree of relief is felt it is too tight to be healthful. If the average woman wore her corset so, it and her petticoats would slip down on her hips in an uncomfortable and untidy fashion.4

We are'quite familiar with our own natural figures compare them with the dressmakers' models. There is nothing more ridiculous and yet pitiful than those amazing waists of the young ladies in fashion plates submitted to a reasonable female public for imitation.

It is a common thing for women to measure about the waist from one to four Inches less in a corset than without it. The corset, even if it is not "pulled in," compresses the vital and most delicate organs of the body, causes deficient circulation and presses down, in along sustained sitting position when the body is inclined forward, with the abominable steels, the soft abdominal cavity with injurious results. A doctor only could enumerate the effects of tight lacing.

The corset should go. A boned waist might bo substituted in tho casfe of stout people, but the lean, the young, the strong, the weak could be stripped of all compression and trained by exercise and healthy domestic labor to anew erectness of stature and muscular endurance and activity that might be bequeathed as a precious legacy to the coming generation.

Take a woman at the fall season of the year, when she is donning her winter flannels. She will then be carrying on her person, with the exception of shoes, stockings and outdoor garments, nine different articles of apparel. With two petticoats— a flannel and an outside one of silk or muslin—a dress skirt and two sets of drawers, a considerable weight is sustained by the abdomen and hips. About her waist nino different layers of material, mostly double, will be bound. Bu$ she has weight without warmth. A woman's lower limbs are not properly protected from cold by this petticoat systenj. The heat of course centers under the heavy corset and numerous waist bands, and that part of the body may be bathed in perspiration when the ex-? tremities are numb with cold. One-halt the women we see on the street the severest day in winter are only wearing, in addition to their customary household garb, a wrap .or jacket reaching just to or below the hips.

The rfemedy for this insufficient and cumbersome clothing of our bodies is simplq. and direct. We can reduce the seven artides of underwear to two—or three at most.

First—A combination garment of wool, or wool with cotton br,",k or silk or merino, reaching to the wrists and ankles, to be worn next the skin. This may be of lisle thread or silk or fine wool for summer wear, without sleeves and short to theknee.

Second—The underskirt and waist combined of muslin or silk. If a short jacket or wrap be worn outdoors, without otber warm covering for the limbs than the dress skirt and undergarment, it may be wadd of flannel and adjustable to the waist.

Third—Equestrienne tights or leggings to the thighs, to be worn only in winter when going out, and removed on return.

The only petticoat might be a divided skirt, but the divided skirt has proved itself to me a snare and a delusion. The equestrienne tights or leggings certai»ly do keep the limbs delightfully warm find snug, but one cannot remove them

We have ceased putting rings in our ears and noses, and it is to be confidently hoped that other obnoxious practices that are rampant today may be with thfsfe consigned to "yc good old timeft."

This improved dress for women distributes uniform warmth, lightens and removes the weight of the clothes to the shoulder and admits of individual taste* in style. Women may be as dainty and as well dressed acting in accordance with these hygienic principles as they are today when comfort and health are sacrificed to
