Tea gowns, and all gowns +r> lio wnrrt fnv fnrmol ncpnainns and strictly for the house are always more graceful when they are made long. The present idea of the dressmakers seems to be to make these skirts?and the same idea is carried out in some of the street gowns?with a silk drop skirt that only just touches, but is finished with two or three accordionpleated ruffles. The unlinecl skirt itself has a facing sewed in with the tinieBt of stitches, that must not be allowed to show; the faciug is deep DBESSY TEA GOWN. enough to make tho skirt hang well. The idea is that when the long skirt is lifted there is only to be seen the silk under skirt, with all its frou-frou of ruffles. For a light gown the ruffle ntinnld hp. ftflfrfid with lace i the effect iB very dainty and attractive. O^e beautiful tea gown is in the form of a sweeping coat of soft, creamy cloth; from the shoulders to the waist is an inset of coarse lace, embroidered in gold, and through this one can see the shoulder -waist encircled with blue, while soft yellow chifl'on falls in front. Another tea gown has an underdress #f?jjver mail, with a black and white |jjj||^ the ends of which are delicately Two Late AVaist Models. k~iijtgBA{i- waist model is pictured j an wS&affe engraving which can be ^ginflpopied in cotton. The founda' ^(S' is silk and indicates an entire ^Joanfice closely tucked. ' ^"The round yoke is of mousseline de aoie, and the draped scarf which out lines the yoKe is aiso 01 me bamemuterial, edged with silk ribbon. This idea would serve excellently for the waist made of Persian lawn, and the draped portion could follow the model shown, made of lawn, tucked aud edged with a narrow ruchingof Valenciennes lace. It could also be cut into deep points, sort of handkerchief points, made of strips of insertion edged with lace, or of lawn more sim| ply finished. In a design of this kind i rosettes would be omitted. The second model in this group is of silk banded with narrow black velvet ribbon, au entirely new conception/ and one which lends itself ezcel? lently to the copyist. In a cotton waist it would be made entirely of tucks, or, tucks alternated with insertion. The back shows au unbroken line of tucks from the neck to the waist. At the front the line is broken at the j bust, from which point the bands eiI tend around the body to the aidtL In the silk waist black velvefc?^^; and cuffs are pictured; iu the waist the linen collar would b $ wbfggj and the sleeves finished to the wrist.?? For Slim FJcur??. The seamless skirt is suitable only' /or very slim figures, as it outlinesthe shape too plainly to be worn "by & stout woman. The perfect fit and cut of this skirt, to make it hang properly, will insure its exclu&ivenes3. It could not be copied in cheap, ready made skirts and have any kind of style to it. The shaped Spanish flounce is also very much in evidence, and will be more popular in cloths than the seamless cut. as it is suited to almost anv 'ji '**ftyf-.. t 4> jmmi J nes That Have Be- if i the Metropolis. 0 1| figure. The upper part will still fit closely, but the flounce allowing of so much more of a flare, makes on the whole a more graceful fulness around fhr* Knffnm The Latest in Veils. One has heard on all sides that veils are ont of date; certainly they were hardly worn during the summer. In fact, no smart woman wore them last season, but now the winter winds are with us again people are glad of the protection of a veil to keep stray locks of hair in that perfect neatness which is necessary. The very clearest veils are now worn; they are of Russian net. with a very wide mesh, the spots being far apart. At a distance these veils are hardly noticed. Stlfl Silks Used in Millinery. Stiff silks, such as glaces, nave been relegated to millinery, being employed for hats and sometimes for the back of a cloth gown, satin occasionally being substituted. It" is usually of a lighter or darker shade than the rest of the gown, and also forms the lower part of the skirt, the cloth falling over it like a tunic. A favorite style for 4-ao orftirno in flranfifl witll ohiffbn in P)""**" ? r\-# **-? ? ? i the front having satin or brocade at the sides. The Tailored Slilrt Waitti. The tailored shirt waist is quite the most stunning of the styles presented; it is as often of silk as wool fabric. Fleece-lined piques are also popular. The fronts of'these waists are quite fancy regardless of the tailor cut of collar, cuffs and back. The fluffy front has been discarded for the strips of silk embroidery?that is, silk ' on wool or fancy ribbon, which latter trimming is the handsomest. Broad Kelt* Xow. , ,t Broad belts of Liberty satin or velooon nn snmfl nf fhfl TlftWenfi tumes, in sharp contrast to the nar-' row belts that are so much in fashion. It must be confessed that a broad belt, when worn under an Eton jacket,. looks very smart, just the edge show-? ing at the back, but these .belts must always be of satin or velvet, cat on the bias. A broad ribbon belt is ? quite out of style. , V Old Bodice Like ^ A bodice that has be*n wort for? MODEL IN AND ED SILK. some time gets rubbed under the arms and flf.ross the back lone before the rest of it is ut ail shabby, and yet it looks far too old to wear. To renovato and make like new make a little bolero or zouave jacket to wear over it;' either of velvet, lace or cloth. Narrow 'lace sewn together does equally as well as that bought in the piece. The cloth^r 'velvet could bo edged with fur, and you will have a new bodice for a trifling cost. A Model Plaid Skirt. It is generally understood that plaids, especially the large plaids that are worn this season, show off to better advantage when made up on the bias in a circular 6kirt. The illustration gives a model skirt designed principally for plaid materials. The upper part is sheath fitting, but from the knee down the skirt flares stylishj ly and falls m graceful folds toward ! the back. The single box pleat is ap I plied narrow 'at the waist line, but flares at the bottoiu, where it trains slightly. Although designed especially for plaid and for double faccd materials, this model would bo appropriate for cheviot, camel's hair, homespun, Veuetiau or :iuy of the new novelty cloths. - i; :rr \ in : a."

He consequently refuses to admit any real relationship between intelligence ancl the bulk of the brain. Edward Blake gives the result ol his observation of the growth of finger-nails. At 21 years of age the nail was replaced in 126 days, at 31 years in 159 days, at 32 years in 88 days, at 55 years in 110, at 67 years in 144 days. Thi3 great irregularity was due to the various stages of health of the subjeote. The growth of the nail was found to be a valuable indication of the progress of different kinds of paralysis.

Professor M. E. Lippman, the great German specialist in beet sugar manufacture, announces that he has made a most curious scientific discovery that Jjeets are subject, like humans, to biliousness, melancholy and fretting or worry. He says that ho is not yet prepared to make public all that he has discovered, as he wishes to further confirm his experiments and follow up tho subject on the lines he has laid out. He says that beets contain the same substances which form the human bile; that is, cholesterine. Twelve years ago he found this in beets and was able to identify it unmistakably, also the ! phytosterine of Hesse. At first he was inclined to think that these subI stances were the result of ohanges in I greasy or oily matter used in the manufacture of 'the sugar, but as only mineral substances were Lied, and an examination failed to substantiate his suspicions, ho was obliged to accept the facts as he found them. Pursuing his investigations further, he arrived at surprising conclusions, and has felt loath to make public what seems as unavoidable inferences. These may be broadly stated as follows: That beets are subject to bad humor, worry, bilioasness and feelings analogous, at least in their physiological action and effects, to the ?w% 4-Ua lmmon hA/lr SIJLLIO SCUUIIIOUIS 1U nuo uuwhu WVWJ ; That experiments extending over several years only tend to confirm these strange conolnsions, and that he is now pursuing a line of research which appears to lead to equally envious inferences.?Philadelphia Becord. .

A good story is told of an experience of Joseph Jefferson, the great actor. A number ot years ago he played a one-night engagement in a small Indiana town, appearing in his favorite part of Rip Van Winkle. In the hotel at which he stopped ~fras an Irishman "recently landed," who acted as porter and general assistant. Judged by the deep ana serious interest which he took in the house, he might have been clerk, lessee and proprietor, rolled into one. At about 6 o'clock in the morning Mr. Jefferson was startled by a violent thumping on his door. When he struggled into consciousness and realized that he had left no "call" order at the office he was naturally very indignant. But his Bleep was spoiled for that morning, so he arose and soon | after appeared before the clerk. "See here," he demanded of that individual, "why was I called at this unearthly hour?" "I don't know, sir," answered the clerk. "I'll ask Mike." The Irishman was summoned. Said the clerk: "Mike, there was no call for Mr. Jefferson. Why did you disturb him?" Taking the clerk by the lapel of the coat the Hibernian led him to one side and said, in a mysterious whisper, | "He were shnoring loike a horse, sor, and ui a neera ipe o js saj xujj ?? uow he were onct afther shlaping for twinty years, so Oi ses to mesilf, ses Oi, 'Moike, it's a cooming onto him j agin, and it's yer juty to git the cvay! ther oat o' jer house instantlyl'"? i Leslie's Weekly.
