she Is another kind of woman, u dozen
rods on her feet nnd tho gown Is nearly
ruined, Some gowns are so planned that
tho foot lluffory can be renewed easily,
hut few dressmakers wllh ultra-stylish
patrons put any such check on extrava
gance. Of courso these ilovlces appear
most plentifully In mimmery stuffs, but
they also nre used In making up thu new
er weaves of cloth, despite the fact that
nearly all cloth gowns of Inte.havo been
free of such llxlngs. An example of this
new tientment appears beside to-day's
Initial in a gown of nun's veiling whoso
skirt llouiuo and bodlio covering weie
black sill! muslin. This material was
pale gray flguied with a ling of old rose.
Klguied nun's veiling and albatross are
I ho height of stjle Just now and prom
ise In be worn a great deal.
While cloth gowns are thus taking on
elaborations, theie Is n noticeable In
crease of sill: drcsc made In sciublauco
NKW 1IOUSI3 OOWNS AND
of tailor finish. A few uu quite as se
vere as the uiuul tailor treatment gleu
to cloth, but more often theie are
touches of delicacy In the trimming. This
lmt hccms the more hawmmlous seheme
to employ In silk, and similarly the few
drosses wherein tho tailoring Is well ills
gained by abundant trimming do not ap
pear In poor taste, A ery useful form
of this dress Is lu dull brown taffeta, of
grayish softness, nnd Is made with skirt
tin ring handsomely and a jaunty coat
open over n waistcoat, this, worn over a
dainty fancy waist or front. Taffetas
are tucked, corded and hemstitched, and
Mtrap fluUh, strapping with cloth and
mitln, ami silk braid are seen. A touch
of dull Persian embroidery on the Inner
edge of tho coat, nt the collar, or at tho
waUt Hue of tho coat lu the back looks
well. Buttons covered with Persian
goodt or ornimeuted with Persian eiisiu
1 are alto used.

First Is n brown tnffetn, with trlmmlns
of blnck mid white velvet nnd ilnrk green
satin folds. Dark blue nnd white check
ed foulard wns the fabric of the next
gown, piping of lettuce green velvet and
n ci nun lace collar npplliiicd with pink
chiffon roses serving as trimming. Be
tween the scallops of the skirt could be
seen n lettuce green silk petticoat. Tho
third gown was red and white striped
silk grenadine. Itnnds of white silk held
by sliver buttons, bodice nnd skirt pan 'I
of white nil-over embroidery and wldts
belt of black velvet were other feature.
The freely trimmed gowns of this grade
me represented by the concluding selec
tion, which wns white wash silk stilped
with lavender. It was trimmed with ap
plique of Ivory white lace, sailor collar
of white moussellne de sole and black
el vet bows.
Pretty house gowns nre made of nl
batioss or other delicate wash wools,
with sweeping skirt laid In lots of up
nnd down tucks In gtwips, fnn-llke In
sertions of cloth being set In nt tho front
to ndd to the skirt's nnkle fullness. I.nt
tlcod civet Is a favorite trimming.
Bright red, white, Ivory color, blue, pink
nnd black nre nil pretty. A yoke of Int
tlced velvet over tho bnro throat Is very
becoming, especially to n slender figure.
Sleeves to correspond, with spaces cov
ered by latticed velvet, complete such n
gown. Another type of nlbntros house
dress appears In the center of the con
eluding picture. The color of the goods
wns turquoise blue, nnd tho darker por
tions In the picture were Persian panno

annual claim to popularity, but since
women nre u little tired of pushing thu
waist Hue at least four Inches below
where anatomy places It, tt seems rather
a relief to get Into a dress with no waist
Una at nil. Kveulug dresses thnt fall
straight and with no fullness from under
the bust are worn with little Ince Jackets
iniulo with long pointed tabs In front.
These Jackets nre Jauntily short nt tho
back. Such n combination robs the em
pire of some of Its romance, but makes
It less trying to the average figure. Don't
attempt uu emplie except of very hand
some material, and jou'll probably find it
more suitable for an evening gown than
for house use. If for the latter some
thing novel Is wanted, consider the other
house dress of this rictiri. It was silk
pongee In natural color, with joke, collar,
front rosette and cuds of white China
silk polka dotted In led, and with odd
draper of the dress goods.

Very little cloth that Is used now as
dies materlai is embtoldered, jet tho
number of plain cloth suits Is smaller.
So those who admire the heavier effects
gained last winter In embroideries, have
to copy thein so Dourly as they oau in ap
plique of one form or another. Itemaln
lug in this picture Is u gown trimmed lu
this way, tho goods being moss groen
cholot, the trimming applique, of bUck
bilk and gilt cord. By this trick an lu
elaborate gowii of severely simple out
line may take on a look of dressiness.
Stitched band trimming, usually I.oulslue
silk or taffeta, Is not quite ao decora
tive, yet U a bit uowor.

OHAMPION LIAR OF THE WORLD.
An American t-'IzH Up aa a Moat Incor
Haiti'. Verlint Liar.
"Do you know thnt the average Amer
.can Is n hopeless and Incorrigible and
unmitigated llarV" said a cynic of Bnr
jnue street, lu New Orleans. "I don't
mean he lies viciously, but suave men
dnclty glides off tho cud of hla tongue
is easily us molasses flows from a
spigot on n warm dny Iif summer. He
Joes It unconsciously, habitually, auto
matically Just as his lungs expand nnd
his heart palpitates and his linlr grows,
without any special nttoiitlon,froin the
rest of his system, Heroes It be
cause lie can't help It. Tho thing hits
become n second nature.
"I had all this brought home to me,"
continued the nmntcur cynic, "by a
very simple little experiment which I
tried on myself nnd a few others no
longer ago than yesterday morning.
Did you ever see n pocket counting ma
chine? Well, It's u little device shaped
like n watch. Whenever you press tho
stem the needle on the dial Jumps a
point, mid It registers In thnt way up to
several thousand on the principle of n
cyclometer. They nre used by nny-
body limiting long counts nnd nre very
hnndy, becnuso they never forget
where they lenve off.
"But, to come to the point,1 something
happened to remind me of our national
vice of untruthfulness as I wns getting
up yesterdny, and I determined to keep
tab on myself nnd nscertaln, If possi
ble, how many actual, out nnd out lies
I put Into circulation In tho courso of
tho dny. I chanced to havo one-of tho
little counting machines I bnro just
mentioned, so I slipped it Into my
pocket nnd started out.
"Tho llrst llo I told wns right nt tho
door; Sniltlmon wns passing nnd stop
ped to shako hands. 'Hello, old mant
said I. 'Delighted to see you, when ns
a matter of fact I wns deuced sorry to
too him, becnuso I owe him ten. I
pave tho counter n squeeze and hur
ried on, but before I got to tho ofllco I
hud Jogged It ultio times.
"Wlint did I Jog It for, did you nsk7
Oh, trivialities, mere trivialities, but
nt the same time point blank lies, every
duo of 'em. Whenever I opened my
mouth out dropped some confounded
hyperbole. I told .Tones tho Joke ho
Insisted In springing on me was tho
'best I over henrd nnd then miulo a
tlottblo tally In nssurlng his wife sho
wns looking remnrkubly well when sho
wns looking exnclly like a scarecrow.
I told anothor friend I never laughed
so much In my life ns I linil ot some
thing or other, I don't remember now
wlint, nnd still nnother thnt I hadn't
slept n wink for three nights when I
hud neuralgia lately all lies, bald lies,
In spite of their hiirmlessness.
"When I reached tho ofllco and looked
at tho dial, I was horrified. 'Good
heavens!' I said to myself. 'It seems to
bo physically Imposslblo for mo to
speak tho plain truth In tho paltriest
matters. I'll Just remain perfectly
quiet for half an hour and keep check
on Boggs.
"Boggs Is our head-bookkeeper 'and
a pillar In one of tho suburban
churches. I had supposed hlu to bo
tluj quintessence of cast-iron veracity,
but when I snt down In cold blood to
put him on record I wns astonished nt
tho blase Cushion with which ho CrI
voled with tho truth. I pushed tho
button on him in times In '27 minutes;
I hen he got Into n whispered conversa
tion with a caller, and I lost tho thread
oC his remarks. But I am certain If
I bad been In hearing tho counter
would hnve liiul lmrd work keeping up
with tho procession."
1'nyliiK and Giving.
Tboro Is tin Interesting story associ
ated with the great Cardinal Borroiueo,
who was noted Cor his charities to tho
poor. Cardinal Glullo bud shown to
him thu vast palace which ho hud Just
finished. When ho wns departing, Bor
roiueo, who had been silent whllo In
specting tho building, said: "Your
eminence, I hnvo been reflecting that
tho hugo sums spent on this pnlnco
might havo been given to tho poor."
"Your emlnenco," replied Glullo,
"they have been all given to the poor;
but our notions of chorlty differ. I
pay the poor for their labor, and your
emlnenco Cor their Idleness."
Tho reply, uttered more than Cour
hundred years ngo, Is now tho rulo of
Intelligent philanthropists, who would
help tho poor to help themselves, nnd
restrnlu them Crom becomlug paupers.
Youth's Companion.
Tho Apron ofiui Kmpress.
Tho German Empress Is not at all
extravagant lu tho matter of dress, but
she possesses a wonderful selection of
aprons. When, not many months ago,
n commltteo of ladles presented her
with n white satin one, with tho names
of her flvo sons embroidered In gold,
tho Kmprcss graciously thanked the
donors, explululng, "My husband likes
mo to wear an apron; he says It looks
nice and homely." The young prluces
wero delighted with this gift, for, as
ono of them remarked, "Mother cannot
well Corget us when sho carries our
names on' her apron."

"Is Mrs. Mulllgutawuey In?" asked
tho culjer, presenting her card to tho

"No, ma'am."
"When will she bo lnr'

"Sho told you not to, I suppose."

PULLMAN ORDINARY 8LEEPERS.
Tho tourist travol botweon tho East
and tho Pacific coast has reached
enormous proportions In tho last fow
years, and calls for a special class ot
equipment. To meet this demand the
Pullman Company has issued from Its
shops what it technically calls tho
"Pullman Ordinary Sleopor." These
cars appear similar to the regular
sleepers, being built on tho samo plan,
but not furnished with tho samo ele
gance. Thoy aro equipped with mat
tresses, blankets, sheets, pillows, pillow-cases,
towels, combs, brushes, etc.,
icqulrlng nothing of the kind to bo
furnished by the passenger. Each car
has a stove for making tea and'eoffeo
and doing "light housekeeping," and
each soctlon can bo fitted with an ad
justable tablo. A uniformed porter
accompanies each car, his business
being to mako up berths, keep tho car
clean, nnd look after tho wants and
comforts of tho passengers. In each
of the trains which aro dispatched
dally from Portland by tho O. R. & N.
Co. Is to bo found ono of theso "Pull
man Ordinary Sleepers." Tho car at
tached to tho "Chicago-Portland Spe
cial" goes through to Chicago without
chango, and the ono In tho "Atlantic
ExprcBB" runs to Kansas City without
change. Passongers In this car for
Chicago chango to a similar car at
Grangor.
Much of tho first-class trnvol Is
being carried In theso cars, tho rates
bolng lower, and tho sorvlco nearly
equal to that in tho palaco Bloopers.
