brains arid blood bespattered the bar
and walls of ' the roora. A? double-
barreled shot' gnnj with both barrels
empty but still warm lay 'on the floor
at the side of j the body; i In thb bed
room to the rear of the barroomy used
as the family and. sleeping: room, lay
the dead body of the wife. It lay on
its, back 'near f -one ; of ' the beds.? 'A
small purple hole I in the breast, over

track of the fatal ball, yet not a drop
of blood had flown trom the wound;

What is a '4chemijuie?" It is - very
simple. ; It is however, it is best to
let a JNew- iore, lasmon writer tell
what it is: i j - ' ' ' . . . .
The next erarment ' we brooosa to
call a "chemijupe," from two Trench
words meaning shirt and petticoat.-
ic snouia nave a yotte nttea.ito itne
shoulders and neck, should; have a
collar.upon it or ruches, and the front
edge of tne yoke may be ornamented
for those who choose to ; wear 'dresses
with pointed peeks. " Below the yoke
snouia nave tne gatners 01 a cnenv
ise, made long enougn. to be orna-
mentea at ine Dottom, xnat it may
take tne place 01 an under skirt. It
should nave long shirt or coat sleeves,
with cuffs or ruffles at the wrist?' i t '-.
The advantasres of the 'Lhfimiinre"
are amazing. I It is, like an Eastern
robe, almost lull dress of itself. '
"The chemnupe' gives us chemise;
Underskirt, another pair of sleeves to
clothe the arms, collars, cuffs. , and
ornamented bosom, all in one piece,
reducing laundry work to 'the min
imum,. saving all the extra trouble of
pinning on collars, buttoning; and
pinning cuns, sewing on ruches,, and
fastening neckties, enabling a lady to
be always in order; as to " the ' prna-;
ments or dress. une dozen sucn. gar
ments would take the plaee of at least
three dozen as now worn. -Properly
fitted and appropriately ornamented,;
they would conduce to developing
the individuality of the wearer, more
tan any one other thing.
If it willdo all that is claimed fo
It, it will be welcome, indeed. .Here
is tne way sne sings its praises:: . ..
