The waist proper is laid in box a pleats that arc stitched at their under t] folds and extend from the neck and ^ shoulders, the closing being effected by means of buttons and buttonholes worked through the pl<?ht at the centre front.

Comfortable home gowns, that are tasteful and becoming at the same lime that they can be slipped on with ^ ease, are essential to every woman's P outfit.

Plnmaffo For Winter Millinery. Acording to the Millinery Trade Re view, ostrich plumes enrich many of the Paris pattern hats, and will be extensively used in the decoration of hats turned out by our own milliners, despite their increased expensiveness because of the war in South Africa. Long feathers will sweep around the brims of the large hats, art coming i to the assistance of nature if the j plume grown on the wing of the bird i should lack in length flbrlbe modiste's j ? .. lemand; abundant use will be found or demi-long plumes on Hats of every inscription in vogue; and tips will lold up brims, and otherwise appeal n the garnishing of fashionable hats. Mountings of small tips supplenented by a wisp aigrette will con inue to trim bonnets. Compromises, lowever, in respect of cost, will be ound in the use (instead of ostrich) if the long plume made of the feathers >f the goose, the turkey, the duck, the hicken and the barnyard fowls gen.'rally, and plumes of all varieties of )heasants will be in exceptionally ligli favor. Breast mountings, pomions and quills were as notable in the ecent as in the earlier millinery exlositions, with the neigeoir treatment ?f plumages, the painting, stenciling, lotting and spangling heretofore reaarked upon, and wmgs are coming gain into notice. Slippers Are Much Worn. Quite the most pronounced fad that iss been taken up for some years is hat for slippers. They are worn at ill times, even for traveling, and hey have almost ousted low shoes, xcept for hard use. There seems 10 explanation of how it began, but he fact remains that ill order to be a it a woman must have a pair of lack, high-tongued slippers for genral wear. They take the place of nice )w shoes. Wide buckles are a feature f them, and any metal is correct, lthough silver is the favorite. With liem are worn either very open-work lack stockings or fancy colored ones. A Coquettish Little Garment. A smart bolero of Irish point lace s made double breasted and the ampliade in width atones for the excessive bortness of a coquettish little garment. This Is fastened on the left Ide with three flat buttons about the Ize of a penny and gleaming like uinea gold. Three seems to be the anonical number for these beautiful istenings. They look like golden penies and have none of the superficial spect of cheap gilt buttons. i 30USEG0WN. The Sandal Slipper. r?no two or three straps adox'u the lodish sandal slippers. A Favorite Shlrl Waist. The shirt "waist that closes at the aek is a recognized favorite, and i'omises to extend its vogue for many lonths to come. The admirable May lanton model illustrated is suited to ilk, velteteen, corduroy, flannel, cashiere, albatross and all waist ruateials, but in the original is made of rhite flannel with tiny gold buttons .j trimming. The -lining fits snugly and smoothly, nd is desirable for all light weight wols and silks, but can be omitted fhen heavier materials are used or or any reason it is not desired. The ront of the waist proper is laid in mall bos pleats that are stitched eepest at the centre and grow shortr as they approach the arm-eyes, ach of which is held at the end by hree small buttons. The five pleats t the back are stitched for their enire length and form groups of two at ach side of the centre, where the closig is effected by means of buttons and uttonholes. The sleeves are in bishop tyle, with pointed cuffs that match he novel treatment of the collar. To make this waist for a woman of aedium size four and a quarter yards if material twenty-one inches wide, A rOPULAB SHIRT WAIST. ;hree and a half yards twenty-seven nehes wide, three yards thirty-two nches wide or two and a quarter yards !orty-four inches wide-will be required. ; THE GREAT DESTROY KK I !

Drink and Young Criminals. The National Conference of Charities [ and Corrections in session recently in ! Washington gave prominent recognition to the terrible increase of criminals, the appalling growth of the population of our penal institutions. A paper read before the conference by Mrs. Ophelia Amigh, Superintendent of the State Home for Juvenile OfFenders at Geneva, 111., casts valuable light upon this important question. Mrs. Amigh is reported as saying that every girl now in the home under her care had one drunken parent, and in the case of many of them ooth parents were confirmed drunkards. Mrs. Amigh says: [ "If we desire to raise fine stock we never think of keeping the sires and dams drunk all or half the time, and yet nearly all the children who come to us are the products of such conditions." She goes on to say: "One has to sit but one day in the Juvenile Court in Chicago to realize what it *** ?11" all lrir*<4o r\f nrifl ib luub ma jo aa ftiuuo v*. j? nal institutions in Illinois as well as in other States. All kinds of crime follow in the wake of intemperance and something must be done or we shall become worse than a nation of lepers." Mrs. Amigh mentions one particularly startling instance which has unfortunately been paralleled many times. She says: "We had one gir! brought to us not quite fourteen years of age who had delirium tremens, and we barely saved her | life. She had drank more or less since she was ten years of age. What can we say of the brute in man's form who would ever give or sell intoxicants to a child like that?" It might not be irrelevant to ask: What shall we say of the man who legalizes a traffic the result of which, by centuries of experience, is known to be such things a* hese??The New Voice. Benefits of Abstinence. Sometimes in the editorial columns of a daily paper we have the truth freely set forth. Take, for instance, the RecordHerald. of Chicago. The editor of that paper in commenting upon a remarkable statement of one Mrs. Carrie Brown in addressing the Social Economic Club of Chicago, that "total abstinence is sometimes worse than intemperance," the editor among other things says: "Drinking water satisfies a natural thirst, drinking whisky an unnatural one. Excess in whisky drinking produces temporarily or even permanently a madman, a fool or an insensible lumj> of blood and bones. Complete abstention leaves the head clear and all the bodily functions in a normal condition. The comparison will not stand a minute's inspection. Abstention alone may not make character, but intemperance undoubtedly weakens the moral stamina, and it is the opinion of many physicians that almost any use of alcohol internally is an abuse of the human system, while abstention helps toward virility and good health. The theory that spirituous liquor is a food necessity is now absolutely untenable, and there are not a few people who hold that it is not even a medical necessity." Germany Cursed by Drink. In an article in the Kreutz Zeitung, warmly advocating temperance and the disuse of alcohol 111 the army and navy. th*; writer brings forward remarkable statistics in support of his plea. In 120 army prisons throughout Germany fortyeix per cent, of all the murderers committed their crime while under the influence cf drink. Sixty-three per cent, of the cases of manslaughter, seventy-four per cent, of serious injury to the person and seventy-seven per cent, of criminal immorality ara due to the same cause. In the navy, out of 1071 punishable cases during the last six years, seventv-iive per cent, of the most serious cases nave been due to drunkenness. -*4. The Work of a Busy Man. One of Boston's leading manufacturers, whose large business interests demand much of hiB time and thought, yet feels as if he must do something for temperance, has for some years given special attention to the inculcation of temperance among the young, particularly young men. He believes in circulating the piedge after every i r\ KlC rtlVn nPHPtlPA uses the pledge freely and has taken thousands. In a letter to the National Advocate, he says: "I expect to take 2000 pledges during the year 1901, mostly men; one Sabbath I took between 300 and 400, average age, twenty-one." The Crusade in Brief. In Grinnell, Iowa, it is now unlawful for two people to "congregate" to drink beer. According to insurance statistics teetotalers may expect; seventeen years more iiie than drinkers. The French Chamber of Deputies has passed a law forbidding the manufacture and sale of alcoholic drinks pronounced dangerous by the Academy of Sciences. One of the most conspicuous buildings in Los Angeles, Cal., is Temperance Temple. Temperance Temple was erected in 1889, on the corner of Broadway and Temple street, upon a lot of ground do liatcd by the Good Templars. A drinking man among the employes oi the operating department of any of the arreat railroads to-day is a rarity and be coming more and more rare. Liquor dealers make a big parade of the revenue they pay toward the support oi the Government. But the question is who foot the bills? Venders do not pay a dollar of this revenue only so far as they are consumers, while those who buy and drink the liquor pay it all. Homes ruined, widows and orphans bewailing and unprovided for; wives living pictures of misery and unhappiness; criminals increasing and becoming barefaced, and diseases multiplying and becoming acute and complicated?such are the fruits we are reaping at the hands of liquor, this instrument in the hands of the devil. The Most Popular Cat. The most popular cat to-day, said a fancier at the recent London Oat Show to an Express interviewer, is the blue Persian; and it is so not entirely through the vagaries of fashion as rrom tne ract mat it 18 tne only variety lu which perfect succession of breed is certain. In the coldest parts of Siberia a rainbow may sometimes be seen all day long in a cloudless sky. It is supposed to be due to fine particles of snow in the air. * EVERY MAN I * WOMAN AND CHILI* - I e who suffers from : Rheumatism : * should use ^ j St. Jacobs Oil I It Conquers Pa!n, acts like magic, and has no equal on earth as a pain killer.
