NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—There is a new shade of what we all know as cadet blue. This has a whitish overblown produced by white threads appearing cn the surface irregularly, giving the fabric something of the character of covert suiting. In the new bayadere stripes these goods are.shown. The stripes are

THEATER WRAP AND KEMKGOTE.

of satin and of the shade of the darkest thread in the weave and that thrown in one close, ribbonlike stripe with an edge of white silk in heavy cord, or in a few cases crimson cords or black ones take the place of tho white. There are four to six stripes to each design and they wero expected to extend around tho bottom, but as a matter of fact about half of the gowns made up of bayadere effects have the stripes cut to run into sharp points where the breadths join. When tho material cannot be cut to run so, the part containing the stripes is cut apart from the rest and stitched on as one likes.

Nearly all the woolen dress goods now are made at least 44 inches wide and in several of the designs of all over stripes they are so arranged that they may run length or cross wise as one may prefer. Some of the closely woven cashmeres and tho broadcloths have beautiful braided stripes, done in fino castlo soutache, in mohair thread. The patterns $iq so pretty and tho width of the design maintained to a hair's breadth tho entire length that it is almost wonderful.

This sort of braiding is done by machine. The stripes, owing to the width of tho goods, may go round or up and down tho skirt. A rich piece of such was of royal blue with black braid and terra cotta with dark brown. The preference is for tho black braid on most of outdoor garments, though there are many mixed braids in different colors and some few metal braids, but these are in the old standard qualities. The favorite black braids for trimming fall and winter gowns are the titans, the hercules and tho plainer, but no less handsome, castles in various widths. We find silk braids from one-sixteenth of an inch to three inches wide, titans from half an inch to six inches, openwork mohairs, plain heavy cord mohairs, with picot edges, and a complete line of tho hercules in all widths.

Furs are made more and more fanoifully ovory succeeding week. Just now the mantle capo of moire astrakhan appears to be a favorite. Loose capes were always open to the objection that they did not keep the waist warm, aud it seems to me the mantles have beeu designed to overcome that difficulty, as they are fitted to tho body more or less closely in the baok and front. Some have a regular, snug waist, and a capo over it, or cape sleeves. The storm collar is always there. An odd fancy is to have bows of ribbon aud gilt buckles on a fur mantle. Seal tight waists are made to open over white vests of satin or broadcloth, and these are trimmed with pretty black jet ornaments Tho sleoves to these are just exactly as they happen. Some are long in bell shape, some short, and sometimes there are none at all. There are to the open ones revers of long fur mid storm collars that can lie flat or be raised at will.

One of the most pleasing trimmings of this season is the band of astrakhan

His sister might have a coat of Rob Roy or Burns plaid, or of some other clan, though those two brilliant patterns are great favorites for grown folks as well as children. A pretty design has a Mother Hubbard yoke, to which is sewed the rest in heavy triple box plaits. A flat collar, which can be brought up high around the neck when cold, finishes it. Black velvet ribbon tones a little of its brightness. OLIVE HARPER.

The Rothschilds.

Ansel Rothschild had five sons— Anselm Mayer, Nathan, Solomon, James and Carl—who scattered over Europe and established branches of the parent bank at Frankfort in Vienna, London, Naples and Paria As early as 1820 they were the greatest bankers in the world, making a specialty of government loans. Honors and decorations were showered upon them by grateful kings, and they were recognized socially where other Jews were not. They obtained titles of nobility in England, Germany, Austria and France. A Rothschild has been consul general for the Austrian empire in London, Paris and Frankfort for more than half a century. The sons inherited the financial genius of their father, but those who have studied their career in detail hold that the success of the family has been due to the fact that its great business has always been conducted with a unity of aim and interest. Tho dying injunction of Anselm Rothschild to his sons was that none of them should ever undertake an important financial transaction without consulting his mother and his brothers. This continues to be the rule of the house in the present generation. Every serious matter of business is the subject of mutual consideration and is carried out by the united efforts of the whole family, every one of whom participates in the profits according to his position. While tho great banks are in a measure separate and distinct, they are nevertheless the same, and tho family, now very large, is a single firm with a single in terest.

They have made it a rule to intermarry and have defied the doctrine of the scientists who have forbidden the marriage of relatives on the ground that it debilitates a race. A Rothschild al ways looks among his cousins for a wife uncles have married nieces, nephews have married aunts.

Another reason of their great success is said to be that they have never striven for extravagant profits. They always set a limit to their operations and never try to get the last cent. They sell out during the heat of an undertaking and never wait Till speculation gets cold. "Let some one else make something" is a favorite adage with the Rothsohilds, but some one else has usually pocketed the loss.—Chicago Record.

Limitations of Fame

In Professor Knight's reminiscences of Tennyson it is related that on one occasion when the poet laureate was stopping at an inn in the island of Skyo the landlord was asked if he knew who had been staying in his house, and on being informed that it was the poet Tennyson he replied: "Lor'—to think o' that! And, sure, I thouoht he was shentleman."

At Stirling some one asked the landlord of the house where the poet was stopping: "Do you ken who ypu had wi' you t'other night?" "Naa, but he was a pleesant shentleman. "It was Tennyson, tho poet." "And wha may bo he?" "Oh, ho is a writer o' verses sich as ye see i' tho papers." "Noo, to think o' that! Jeest a pooblic writer, and I gied him ma best bedroom!"

But the charms of Mrs. Tennyson, her gracioui^manners, did not pass unnoticed, for tho landlord said, "Oh, she was an angel."

The Cockney Gallery God.

Charles Matliows had reached the allotted ago of man before he played his farewell engagement'' in London. One night there was an unconscionably long "wait" in the performance of "My Awful Dad." After the statutory ten minutes had expired and tlie curtain showed no signs of rising one of the "gods" .vociferated, "Do hurry along, or else Charley will be too old to act." The wit of the gallery is proverbial, and it was never more keenly exercised than on the first night of a London production some years since. The leading actor—a well known man—took an unconscionable time dying and ladled out the "lengths" with tedious elaboration. Whereupon a voice from the upper regions exclaimed, "We hope we're not keeping you up, sir."

Mental Maladies.

Within the memory of living men there- were physicians who held ths theory that mental disorders were in the majority of cases nothing more or less than vieiousuess, ugliness, at, to use their favorite expression, "pure devilishness." The logical sequence of this line of reasoning was that the infirmity was something to be eradicated by chastisement given in allopathic doses. More than one sufferer has been mercilessly whipped and many another has been chained and starved with the view to exorcise the evil spirit that was popularly supposed to be the cause of all the trouble. The starvation part of all the treatment might have given favorable results, as extreme reduction of the physical system often removes the clouds from the mental, but cruelty or brutality is the worst possible remedy, for afflictions of this nature, simply aggravating and increasing them without the faintest hope of benefit. Disturbances of the psychic half of the human economy are even more numerous and important than those affecting the physical and material.

One of the misfortunes of patients who suffer from mental disorders is the lack of appreciation of the grave nature of their disease. Even eminent medical men, especially those who are themselves in the enjoyment of robust health, find it difficult- to appreciate the more delicate phases of nervous distress. Merely a nervous attack means a great deal more than the average person is capable of understanding. The horrors that cluster around even the milder forms of insanity are such that the merest shadow of mental disturbance demands the most thorough and intelligent treatment. Ministering to a mind diseased is a phase of the physician's work that is too little understood and receives much less attention than its importance warrants.—New York Ledger." •"i/?*

Toning Sol atlons.

The formulas for toning solutions arS almost without number, but the toning process which gives the best results for aristo papers—the" papers most commonly used—is the one in which the toning and fixing are done separately. A favorite bath is made as follows: Make a stock solution of 15 grains of chloride gold and sodium (price, 40 cents) and 1% ounces water and a saturated solution of bicarbonate of soda. A saturated solution is a liquid which contains a little more of the substance placed in it than it can dissolve and is shown by a deposit at the bottom of the bottle or vessel in which it is placed Mark the bottle containing the gold "Gold Solution," and the bottle containing the soda "Bicarbonate of Soda Solution.'' To make the toning bath take one-half ounce of the gold solution and add ounces of water. Dip a piece of blue litmus paper into the solution, and if it does not turn the paper red add a little more 5f tho gold. Then put in enough of the bicarbonate of soda solution to turn the litmus paper back to blue. The soda should be addedafow drops at a time and the mixture stirred with a glass rod. Mix the bath half an hour before needed for use. Place the prints in this bath, and tone till nearly the desired color. Rinse and place for five minutes in a fixing bath composed of an ounce of hyposulphite of soda and 8 ounces of water. Wash in running water fop half an hour.—Harper's Round Table.

'•Away "With Melancholy,— And bid dull care avaunt," sounds very well in verse, but if you have a case of the "blues" caused by indigestion, with biliousness added on as an extra horror, you cannot say hey! presto! and thus insure the departure of those abominable twins. The "proper caper"'when thus troubled is to seek the aid of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Thereafter you Avill speedily digest with ease and eat with appetite, and your liver will reassert its right to regularity. Not only this, you can retire without a horrible dread that the Washington monument willin dreams—impose itself upon the pit of your stomach. If you feel premonitorysymptoms of chills and fever, kidney trouble, or rheumatism, summon the Bitters to the rescue without delay, "lest a worse thing befall vou." A feeble condition of the system is more speedily chavged to a vigorous one by this fine tonic than by any other medicinal agent in existence.

The Winding Up of "an Englishman.

It was a shrewd observation of one of the keenest critics of the Anglo-Saxon mind that ever lived, Cardinal Newman, that it takes an immense "time to wind up an Englishman to the level of a dogma—that is to say, to get him to understand what a dogma is, what it involves, what it necessarily asserts and what it unavoidably denies. Often when, after great toil, with pulleys and hoists, encouragements in front and goads behind, the Englishman's bullet head slowly appears almost on the level of the ground, something goes wrong somewhere, and* down he falls to the very bottom of the pit, and the work of winding him up has to be begun all over again.—"The Law ofEm ploy era," by Augustine BirrelL

Lemou.

In selecting lemons avoid those that seem light in weight and that have thick rinds that resist pressure. A juicy lemon fe heavy and thin skinned and gives under the fingers when pressed. Lemons may he kept fresh a long time by wrapping tbem separately in tissue paper and keeping them in a cool place.

"Poor Soul! Poor Devil I

Our enemies (when we are old)—anu who is without them?—no longer annoy us. Indeed, they have ceased reviling. To them we are as dead men, "out of mind.' To whom the proverb de mortuis applies. And our friends are twice our friends. No one who is not "laid by" can understand the depths of human sympathy. Even our acquaintances become our friends, and the least soft hearted of visitors murmurs to himself. "Poor soul!" or perhaps (with equal commiseration), "Poor devil!" What is most curious is the interest, if we have in any way become known to the public at large, complete strangers tako in our physical and mental condition.

If prescriptions could cure us, we should be in rude health indeed. The materials are sometimes a little difficult to procure. I have seen a letter from New Zealand recommending an old gentleman suffering from rheumatic gout to bathe in whales. In that island whales, it seems, are occasionally thrown up on the seashore, when rheumatic patients hasten to lie in them during the progress of their evisceration for purposes of commerce. The extreme rarity of whales upon the Thames embankment seems to have been unknown to the writer. Some correspondents give most excellent sanitary advice, but too late for its practical application. An aged poet who had lost the use of his limbs was exhorted by an admirer to dig, "even if it were but in his back garden,'' for an hour or two every morning before breakfast. All that was wanted, he was assured, for complete recovery was "profuse perspiration followed by a healthy glow.James Payn in Nineteenth Century.

Hia Own Recommendation.

Wnen ,i. \V. Sherwood, now general superintendent of the Clover Leaf, was superintendent of the Big Four, he had to discharge a brakeman for violation of the rules. The man hung about tho office asking for a letter of recommendation. To get rid of him Mr. Sherwood told W. A. Sullivan, who was his chief clerk, to write the letter. This Mr. Sullivan did. The man went out and returned in half an hour. "What's the matter now?" asked Mr. Sherwood. "That letter you gaVdlue'is all right, isn't it?" "Of course it is. That ought to get you a job anywhere. "Well, I wish you would read this letter of recommendation I've got, Mr, Sherwood, and give me a job."

Sherwood took the letter on which his own name was hardly dry, read it carefully and remarked: "I am well acquainted with Sherwood, and any one he recommends must be all right. You report to the train master and tell him to put you to work.'' —St Louis Globe-Democrat.

Two Influences.

Young man—That was an excellent paper your daughter read on the "Influence of Science as Applied to Practical Government."

Wearied Father—Yes Julia is the pride of her class, and now that she has mastered the "Influence of Science as Applied to Practical Government" I hope that she will be able to find out something concerning the "Influence of the Broom as Applied to the Kitohen Floor.' '—London Fun.

It invariably gives strength to the tired, over-worked and worn-out body. It makes pure, rich, vitalized blood and strengthens and invigorates tho nerves of those who are nervous, nerve-weakened and nerve-exhausted.

Then, too, look at the standing of tho people who recommend Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy as the greatest and grandest of medicines. They are our foremost citizens, men and women occupying high places of honor and trust and known to everybody, people whose word is always the very essence of truth and who recommend the weak, nervous and suffering to use Dr. Greene's Nervura because it cured them, because they have'absolnte personal knowledge that it is a sure restorer of health and strength, and because they wish the public to have the full advantage of this truly wonderful medical discovery.
