For one Tiik Ciironiclk will de plore the day when women will ape men in wearing apparel, and vice versa. Nothing can take the place of their own becoming mode of dress and any innovation or change to the masculine mode is one we shall re gret to see. It makes them unwo manly. The statement is made that the wearing of male attire is grow ing in Tavor with the ladies of Paris, and an exchange says that "as the fashions started there soon become the rule of America, it is more than probable that the women of the two republics vill keep pace with each other in the adoption of this inno vation.'' So far as America is con cerned we trust not. We feel sure our women have courage enough to preserve their self-respect and will A F 1 1 - . . not ioiiow or oe ieaa by these wild notions of French fanatics. Char lotte Chronicle. Fashion is$t curious thing, and we have Jived long enough to learn that people's notions of what is pretty and becoming can undergo wonder ful changes in a short time. When a new fashion is started by the women j the majority oi men may regard it i as an absurd innovation u-nntin, ! in taste and beauty, and feel, as we have often felt, during our short life, 1 k.. , " 'r ! that they can never become recon ciled to it, but the ladies, with a su preme indifference to the likes or dis likes of the male biped, go on with the new-fangled-notion ; it becomes more general, la Jies whom you never dreamed could be induced to adopt it, are found complacently wearing it in public, and the first you know you find yourself inquiring whether, after all, it is not very nice and a more becoming mode than anything heretofore' in vogue. Now why is this? Js ijt becjvuse one gradually becomes accustomed to seeing it and naturally prefers a familiar thing, or is it simply because there is a woman in it ; and, if the latter be a solution, would man learn to admire anv kind of a garb that miht hp wn. efally adopted by woman? It may ! be so. We have a very distinct re-i collection of the foot-gear reform' which was inaugurated some ten or I ia iu &iiut 1 an1 pt()ckin?P- Tre newspapers ex- i o!nimr.t To-i!naf l.- 1 1 . twelve years ago, both as to shoes Ciaimea airainst thn Frnnoh heels and declared that they would work eternal destruction to the girls' spinal columns, but the fashion had its run, and is still on. Then the question as to the correct color of stockings, it seemed, never would be definitely settled. They changed from white toii sort of cream color, then gray and light blue, red stripes that ran around, then blue and brown stripes that ran around the same way; next came all cbllors of stripes that ran up and down, and, before the stripe mania ended, it had re solved itself into checks or plaids, others were elaborately and beauti fully embroidered in silk, and it re quired as much money to get one pair of these stockings as it would to buy an ordinary suit of clothes. The strpe craze was succeeded by solid colors, beginning , with deep red. which was considered bv many ;,s "simply awful.'' the style then ran quickly from red to brown, and the climax of preposterous absurdity was reached when black coal black was declared the correct thing, and a cold shiver ran through man's anatomy. You know how it affected'vou then": how do you feel about it to-day ? female who appears.in any other color excites only your commiseration or disgust. Our brother of the Cironicie will find that our women, like all the women of the civilized world, will . tow the fashion, and in the end. he will endorsed hem. . Color lAiit luionz the Foresters?'.

As the body has not shown up at Ocean View and various matters have come to light, the supposition now is that Thomas H. Hardy has not suicided at all. but has left the citv 10 av-id business troubles. It is said at his home that he carried with him all his monev and valuables and extra clothing. His most intimate lriend do not think him dead, and"believe the letter left in his room stating that he intended to drown himself at Ocean View was written to mislead those who might busy themselves instituting inquiries as'to his whereabouts.

Until the new goods begin to arrive we are going tooflersuch bargains all through the house that the forty balls of our Elevated Cash Railway will be kepi moving lively all the time.
