Thi; weather has been so unkind, {be frost so biting and the skies so threatening, that woman fair uud fascinating lias had to creaic indoor amusement. Receptions and operas are considered more informal and educative than dinners or <1 uncos, and so the season has been made up mostly of the?e Junctions. Special gowns are being created daily to lill the demand. A costume artist, a novelty, by the way, iu the professional world of women.. Mrs. Ida M. Rnw by name, is speuiliuga great ileal of time creating new gowns for reeet>tions and the opera. The Mail and Express prints he exclusive double-column picture and description of the latest metropolitan designs. One is a "frou-frou"' gown, all tulle, ribbon and silk tlowers. The skirt is gored and made very full. The basque falls beneath the skirt, and it confined by a wide ribbon belt. There are no sleeves. The shoulder ' froufrou*' garniture of tulle falls to the elbcw. Gloves of Bernhardt style are worn. The coiffure follows the accustomed model which Sarah Bernhardt iavari J. \ p COSTUMES FOE EEC feathers are not good taste for streel wear, but their number is not yel very great.

The opera coat shown has eevera new points. One is the absence of th< large extra shoulder cape and anothe: is the annex of the Mary Stuart col lar. The garniture of the hair, to b< in good ta9te with the costume, shoul< be simple. A butterfly bow of blacli velvet ribbon is preferred to all othei forms of ornamentation. JN DEFENCE OF FEATHERS.

The Director of the Mint at Washington is haying a terrible time trying to reduce the names of foreign exhibitors at the Exposition to the dimen sions of the medals granted by the . Bureau of Awards. There iB a little tablet on the medals which will contain at the utmost only thirty-two letters, and some of the foreign nameB contain 150 or 200 letters, which he does not know how to abbreviate. There is a Russian exhibitor, for example, whose four names contained more than 100 letters aud only one of them can be placed upon the medal. It is a very embarrassing and ticklish duty to make a selection, particularly when one is not familiar with the Russian language. The Germans, theAustrians, the Hungarians and the Bohemians are quite as bad, and aa the list reads now less than half the foreign names can be properly inscribed. The Director of the Mint has, therefore, decided to ask the as-. distance of the members of the diplomatic corps in Washington, and Secretary Carlisle will address a letter to the Secretary of State requesting him. to invite the Amba^sa tors and Ministers from the European countries to ' call at the Mint Bureau and edit the names of'their constituents.?Uliioago Record. ??
