A very charming one waa made of cerise cloth, finished with ermine, and had a narrow piping along the edges of blue cloth. The lining waa of ermine and a cravat of paatet blue cloth waa knotted together In front Another wrap, equally aa beautiful, waa Of, Jade-green Liberty finished at the bottom with deep tucka set between tolaa folds of velvet of the same shade. , Around the neck was a braided design which waa made of nar row biases of chlfTon aatin. in blue, cream, black and, greet combined. .and theae colore were also, kaotted together in a cravat . t ,.

The little accessories Of dress often count more in the appearance of a well gowned woman than the expense of the ' costume.' The glovea should match the waistcoat, the umbrella should go well with the gloves, with a wooden handle to match the gown; a wrist-bag to match the umbrella and the boot tops that go well with" everything. Tnese are a few. of the most noticeable thin ga that ran Irs the 'dress artistic. The French woman Is wearing gloves of tan, old gold orpiacuit coior, wmcn are always attractive.

One may know perfectly well that'll Is un reasonable and yet be haunted by fool ish fosrs. One may reason sensibly about repose and yet Jump at the drop ping of a teaspoon and start at the ringing f a bell.' What every women csn do, however, Is to "hang on," that Is. to exercise her Will-power to Keep auc.n idle msrs n fancies in the background, and aha can so occupy herself with nemuui worn. either for nereeir or ror soms one eie, that aha will not hsve time to brood over her own troubles or exaggerate her aliments.

To one who lias Known someming or what this lark of control of the nervea may mean, nothing la more distressing than the affectation of nervousness by he Ill-balanced woman who Imagines that to nlead nervousness Is somehow Ign of distinction.

Fresh from Paris has come a new scheme that may be received rather gen erally by owners of New . York's largo apartment houses. It la nothing more nor less than a lottery, but Is so unique that there Is very little chance for any one to be swindled, yet It still retains all the excitement, of a full fledged gambling proposition. The plan makes it necessary for all the tenants of on apartment house to meet on the' first of; the month, and. draw a slip of paper from ' a hat The one who draws the lucky slip will have his rent free for tnat montn. jsvery month tnis proceed ing will go on, and. it has worked so well in Parts that some of the apart ment houses have not lost' a tenant in years.

It Is becoming a fad in Gotham, and it Is probable that the banks will soon have as great a demand for gold aa they al ways have had, for new bills. On ths other hand, it is an interesting fact that unless a man nas just returned from the west, one is very seldom seen with a - silver aousr. . to orrer one to a streetcar conductor is nothing short of an insult, and wnenever anyone is given a cart wheel, he eyes It suspiciously, and Immediately tests It to ascertain wnetner it is genuine. JIt was a hard blow to aristocratic old New YorkeTS to have the "slow bu'. aure" Fifth avenue coaches replaced by up-to-date automobile buses; and they have been protesting ever since becauxe the buses are plastered with flaHhlni signs advertising a certain kind of to bacco. But It was soon passed about that this was exactly as they were In London, which seemed to appease the majority. But the bus company has Just added a-new wrinkle that Is a startler. It Is an automatic coin re ceiver, that looks exactly like a re volver, and through which the con ductor. Is obliged to receive all fares. Instead of holding out his hand for the fares, he points the muzzle of the nickle-plated weapon In your face. The passenger Is then obliged to put the dime In the muzzle, which Is followed by a sharp clhjk. A notice Is posted that the conductor may not touch any body's fare; if you need change he is authorized to return the full amount and then you must tuck the dime into the slot of the machine yourself. More people travel vertically than they do horlsontallv In New York. In other words the MOO elevators In Man hattan carry mpre passengers than do all the surface, elevated and sutrtvay roads combined.

Society's Interest is centered now in the marriage of Miss Gladys Vanderbllt on Monday to Count Laszlo Bsenhenyl. It Is not going to be- a large wedding, however, and there have been a number of disappointed ones who did not receive invitations. The count and Miss Van derbllt obtained their license at the new marriage license bureau last week with out any notoriety, for they arrived at city hall, filled out the necessary pa pers and got away before anyone had time to spread the news that they were in the building. The groom dignod his name li full, using the title to which he Is accustomed that of "Count. In signing his name he had to use two lines, there not being enough space In one. . lie gave as his occupation, land owner and royal chamberlain. The ar rival of the members of the count's family early last week, attracted a large and curious crowd, and mucn to tbeir surprise these members of nouilky seemed to be the most democratic per sons imaginable.

The dial of the clock will be 25 feet, with letters ' four feet high, and hands 12 feet long. As the clock .has not yet been ordered It is not known, just how it will run, but in all probability by electricity, although some of the newer ones have used compressed air.
