Mrlng Out Tour Old Lace.
Y Collectors of old lace will have an op-
Tortxuiity to display their "real" old
fabrics this fall, for there seems to be
an abundance of lace on almost all
the new costumes. Heirlooms are be
ing ruthlessly slashed into, and one
'ressmaker absolutely refused to
handle old lace unless she could cut it
as she chose, c-.ying that even the
liandsome laces are far from decora
tive if clumsily arranged. Long lace
Empire coats are among the season's
fads. Some of them are lined with
chiffon and adorned with ermine col
lars. The color is about the only
VWarm thing about them, and, as they
are being designed for winter wear, it

Abroad every smmmer brought back
with them this fall one novelty in the
way of an addition to a woman's toilet
that has already caught on like wild
lire. It consists of an Elizabethan
ruff made of colored net, and is usually
made of a shade of the filmy stuff to
match the wearer's gown. The favor
ite colors are the light shade of blue
that is so popular just now, though
some of the rtiffs are seen in pink, and
they are also made up in black and
White. Mrs. Clarence Maekay took her
Duchess of Marlborough to her favor
ite milliner one day this week, and
Sjefore the Duchess left she had ordered
half a dozen of the new ruffs. These
-trifles cost from $15 to $20 each, and
the demand for them is so great that
in the few big shops that keep them
there is a strict rule that none of the
rnffs may be sent out of town on ap
proval. New York,.Fress.
Styles In Foottrear.
Speaking of footgear.- reminds me
that the openwork stocking is "ele
mode," t lie plain stocking 1ms taken
its place. From an esthetic point of
view there is nothing more attractive
than a plain silk stocking molding a
dainty Instep and ankle. Whether in
black, white, light tan or gray, with
shoes to match, they are the stock
ings that a fastidious woman affects,
for the fashionable satin shoe for
evening wear the new stockings are
inserted with small lace medallions in
stead of the width of Chantiily, either
black or white, that was so general.
With pretty gowns it is indispensable
that shoes as well as hats and gloves
shall correspond in tone. The smart
new shoe is made of thin glove kid and
fastens mysteriously at the side. This
model does not show a pretty foot to
advantage as do the shoes opening in
front, still it's a. fad. A pair of lilac
k'd glove shoes were very fetching
vjtith buckles in brilliants fastened to
Mack patent leather straps. Our
grandmothers wore colored shoes and
used to send to the shoemaker a piece
of silk or satin from each new skirt.
The elegantes of to-day are equally
anxious to match the color of their
shoes and dresses, but they have kid
dyed to harmonize with the samples of
material they send. This it appears is
no easy matter as very fine kid does
not take the dye as easily as the
coarser kid.
School Hat.
The most serviceable of school hats
ro those made of. cloth wjth stitched
brims and soft crowns. Sometimes the
entire hat is stitched and is entirely
(devoid of trimming except for a small
- quill. There is no end to the range of
colors in which these are shown, and
all the new and fashiouaolc shades
are reflected, thus having one exactly
matching the little oue's coat or frock.
Ribbons are very markedly a fea
ture of juvenile millinery. The sim
plest of flats tied about the crown
with wide sash ribbon, knotted in a
,big bow in front, is always in the best
of taste, and style as well. There are
other flats in soft French felt, faced
half way underneath the brim with
velvet, and the flat crown almost en-
lrelv covered with a thatching of rib
bon loops.
Stiil auother good model is of the
French felt and, by the way. a mother
,who can afford It will do well to buy a
good quality of felt, its service is so
much longer. The brim of this hat
falls in graceful lines, and the small
' crown of the shape is replaced by a
large Tarn crown of silk exactly the
same shade as the felt. Wide bands
of the silk, the edges deeply stitched,
are knotted to form the huge front
bow.
Velvet hats will be chosen for the lit
tle miss' dressier, appearance. This
winter will probably see more of these
large velvet shapes than have ap
peared for some time past. Of course,
they are out of the question for school
vear. but many of theiu ..re pictur
esquely simple in outline and in trim
ming. i Ostrich is shown on some of them,
lit many mothers, even in the wealth
ier classes, have an aversion to the
use of this plumage on little folks'
bonnets, aud these will choose the
large velvet hats rolled away from
the face slightly to one side of the
limit, bent over the hair in the back,

'Much has been said and written of
the boy and the farm, aad of methods
and mean wherewith to check the
constant movement of the young men
toward the cities. Yet we hear little
of plans to keep the girls on the farm.
With the ever-increasing list of oppor
tunities open to women in 'the business
and professional world, the rural com
munities are being as swiftly drained
of the best of their young women as of
their young men. Where one remain
at home to take an active interest in
farm life, ten go forth to swell the
army of teachers, stenographers, book
keepers, clerks and factory hands the
living tribute money yearly demanded
by the great centres of civilization.
One great factor in producing this
movement is that the girl on the farm
too often has no money of her own,
but is dependent upou her parents for
ciothcs and spending money until she
marries. Many girls leave home for
hard and often uncongenial work in
an office or factory simply because it
offers them a chance of having money
of their own.
There is, however, an opening for
girls upon the farms, which, to those
who have a taste for out of door life,
should prove more healthy, more at
tractive, equally remunerative and less
confining than many professions com
monly adopted by women. Some of
the lines which appeal particularly to
women and along which women are
to-day securing fair incomes, are poul
try-keeping, ijee-keepnig, pigeon-rais-ing,
either fancy breeds or squabs;
flower-growing, either out of doors or
green house work: forcing of early
vegetables, orcharding and the raising
of aromatic or medicinal herbs. There.
is no reason, also, why women should
not own and operate successful grain.
dairy or fruit farms.
Within my own circle of acquaint
ances three women have gone exten
sively into poultry keeping, another is
successfully managing a fair sized
greenhouse, and auother runs a small
Irult farm, with strawberries as it prin
cipal crop. A girl just graduated Irom
college is going into partnership with
her brother iu a large fruit raising ven
ture. Three of t'le women have been
successful teachers, and several are col
lege educated. One girl, the daughter
of a prominent New York business
man, became interested in a woniout
Vermont farm, which was classed as
a losing number in the list of the fam
ily's goods and chattels, since both
father and son had tried their hands
at managing it. She took a course at
an agricultural college, begged and re
ceived the farm from her father, and
within two years it was giving fair
dividends to its new manager.
Not all girls, of course, care for the
farm or for farm life, but give those
who do a chance. Let them have sonic
thing of their own. of which they bear
all the expense of running, and from
which they receive all the income. If
they are interested in crops or vege
tables let them have a plot of ground,
teach them how to till it, help them
secure labor and show them how to
market the produce to advantage. If
they like poultry give them a flock of
two hundred or three hundred hens.
Make your girls take an interest in
farm life by giving them something to
be interested in, and there will be few
er permaturely old women coming
home to rest, broken down by the ner
vous strain of the schoolroom, or the
long hours and close confinement of the
office. Phileua B. Fletcher, in the Nw
York Tribune.

HOME POLITENESS.
Our Habit or Forgeltine the KIrIiU of
Those Neurext Ua.
It is a singular thing that we should
find it so easy to hurt the people we
love best. ,
The people who live in the house
with us, those for whom we would ac
tually do most if it came right down
to deeds, are the ones with whom we
take the least care to be courteous and
kind.
Not outsiders, for whom we care
nothing; not our friends and neighbors,
nor those among whom chance throws
us, but the dear home people who love
us better and have done more for us
than anybody else, have to bear the
brunt' of our ill-temper and harsh
words.
Home is regarded as the natural
place to "let off steam." and there is,
curiously, small thought given to the
scalding hurt that overflow of wrought
up feelings Is going to do the family.
Some of us who are the pink of po
liteness among outsiders leave our
politeness entirely out of our dealings
with our own. If even the common
courtesy we practice toward strangers
were made a part of all our dealings
with our own family there would be
infinitely less friction in the average
home.
"Estelle is mad at me," a young
woman was heard to say to her thirteen-year-old
sister. "She will not
speak to me because this morning 1
went into her room without knocking.
She has such an absurd sense of dig
nity.' Perhaps Estelle carried her dignity
to extremes, but in the germ of it
she was right. She only demanded the
common politeness her elder sister
would have shown to a stranger.
It is strange indeed that we find It
so little worth while to be particular
with cur owu. In reality we should
be more so, for the more strongly peo
ple are bound together by affection
and the more closely they come in con
tact in daily life the more strain there,
is on feelings, temper and nerves. '
Try a little more politeness among
the folks at home. If you are not
treating your own people with the
same courtesy you give to others, try
for a while to do so, aud see if it does
not improve many hitherto trying
and unhappy situations.
Life is just our chance of learning
love, as the wise poet. said. And there
is no better opportunity to learn that
lesson than in our daily contact with
those who are nearest and dearest to
us. Philadelphia Bulletin.

The late Mr. Walter Macfarrcn in
his "Memories"' told an amusing story
of the manner in which he was "taken
in" by a Birmingham cabman upon
his first visit to the Midland metrop
olis. In 3STG ho was staying at the
Queen's Hotel, Birmingham, for the
Triennial Musical Festival, at which
he was to conduct "The Resurrection."
A friend was staying at the Stork Ho
tel, which is about three minutes' walk
from the Queen's, and in order to pay
this gentleman a visit Mr. Macfarren
enlisted the services of a cabman out
side his hotel. For nearly an hour the
cabby drove him about the city, and
upon arriving at the Stork demanded
five shillings as the legal fare. Later
Mr. Macfarrcn asked his friend why
he put up at so distant a hotel. The
astonished gentleman took him to the
window and' pointed out to him the
lights of the Queen's, which could be
seen by looking along Corporation
street. London Daily News.

NEW . YORK'S FLOWER MARKET
How the Metropolis is Supplied With
Cut Koses and Violets.
The liveliest spot In Greater New
York at half past five in the morning
Is in the building at the corner of
Sixth avenue and Twenty-sixth street
Express wagons, carts, and vans piled
high with long and narrow wooden
boxes struggle for places at the curb,
their number continually augumented
by other that rattle down from Broad
way or drive around the corner from
Sixth avenue.
It is here that the cut-fiower mar
ket of the metropolis is installed, and
more than two-thlrda of the flowers
that fill the windows of the big deal
ers on the principal thoroughfares, or
are hawked by vendors in the streets,
are handled1 at Twenty -sixth street
and Sixth avenue in the early morn
ing. The flower market is divided into
two branches, each comprising a sep
arate class to sellers and buyers, who
do business at separate hours. The
third floor of the building is given over
to the humbler of the branches the
small growers, almost all from Long
Island, who bring in their own wares
with their own hands, and whose cus
tomers are almost entirely itinerant
pedlers, who sell in the streets, or have
small stands on the sidewalks. Prac
tically the entire business of this
branch of the market is done between
six and seven o'clock in the morning.
On the second floor of the building
are the big dealers, who soli on com
mission to the larger florists, and
whose wares come by express from the
great greenhouses up the Hudson or
across the river in New Jersey. Vio
lets are a separate industry in this
market, and one firm on the ground
floor controls the entire trade in this
flower. These more aristocratic trad
ers find their busiest hour between
eight and nine o'clock, after which
period the fashionable florist has plenty
of time to decorate his windows pend
ing the calls of his late-rising cus
tomers. F. M. White, in Harper's
Weekly.
