Mrs. Frederick W. Upham, a well
known society woman of Chicago, has

I
an's Athletic club.
Lettie Baldwin, a colored woman of
Ashbora, N. C., presented herself for

en years before the civil war and at
the close of the war had nine chil
dren.
Mrs. Mary McGeehan, who is now
106 years old. has lived on oatmeal all

“Champion pants patcher of the
United States” is the unique title won
during the National Corn exposition at
Omaha last year by Miss Selma Fre-
deen of Aurora. Neb., who, in competi
tion with girls and women from twen
ty states, beat them all for neatness.
In addition to the title the champion
ship carries with it 350 In gold. Miss
Fredeen Is only seventeen years old.
If there is really one woman who
Baa a dollar left after the holidays, now
la the time she can make it do the
work of five. Every store Is nearly
giving away unsold articles to make
place for the new. And the new is all
white, with much lace and fine Hew
ing. Bargain counters bold remnant«
of excellent roods, and a wise buyer
can find broadcloth, silks and many
other standard goods which are in the
way, and as fashions in tills line
ebangc so very little it pays to buy
them. A few wise virgins save their
money for just such opportunities.
They make smoking caps out of their
father’s and brother's old clothes with
the addition of a little gold braid and
a few stitches of embroidery or make
a denim sofa cushion with the reci
pient’s Initials embroidered uj»on it
for Christmas presents aud then save
their cash for after holiday sales. And
these sales string along quite to Feb
ruary. But let us speak of the dainty
new wash and white dress goods.
The white list is large. The different
designs and apparently different mate
rials all woven from cotton leave noth
ing to be desired. There are batistes
in so great a vurlety that it would be
profitless to uttempt to give them all
in detail, but I can say that there are
stripes, checks and embroidered fan
cies, all white, in addition to the fan
cy swisses, there are also madras de
signs, French piques and muslins, both
,
crisp and soft.
The ancient dotted swiss is shown
in great variety—that is, in the size of
the dots. These vury from pin bead to
those the size of a nickel. There are
also designs of tiny sprays of flowers
In natural colors, and these are In
wash silk, so that the gown may be
laundered Indefinitely. Some others

ground, while there are piques with al-
most the same floral figures. Pique is
one of the standard cotton goods, but
it is hard and does not feel delicate,
while it takes soil even sooner than
the thinner materials. And plquo is
harder tJ launder than thinner goods.
French, linens, which are about one-
half linen and the rest cotton, are em
broidered by machine. Batistes are
always dainty, and this season's out
put shows the most delicate of de
signs, reminding one of the “sprigged
muslin’* of our great-grandmothers’
days. Then there is voile in cotton,
somehow manipulated so that it looks
like the finest wool voile, aud other
eotton voiles, which are mercerized so
that they look like silk. Zephyrs there
are la every conceivable color and tint
and many mixtures of silk and sea is
land cotton striped and some in jac-
A Child’s Instinct.
It was a quiet Sunday afternoon
*hen mother and little boy were hav
ing 'their accustomed Bible reading
He sat on her lap while she read to
him the Tweuty third Psalm, Little
fellow though be was, the teuder,
beautiful words seemed to stir bis
thought. Mother read to the end and
then waited without a word. Little
boy was silent, too, for a moment;
then, reaching up and gently stroking
mother’s cheek, be said softly:
“Was it a little boy wivout his
mamma?”—Success Magazine.

quard and Persian effects. Some of
these have borders woven along, to be
developed into directolre gowns for
street wear later in the Beason. Many
of the designs cannot be distinguished
from real silk in foulard effect.
,
Any amount of uew things are ex
hibited for early spring, among them
being the silk and cotton pongee. This
la produced thirty-six inches wide in
dots on pretty ground and in plain col
on. Another half and half materia!
is shantung anglaise, which is very
rich and lustrous and is often in all
the new shades, with self stripes.
These are satiny in effect
A decided movement is in having the
bouse dresses as simple as possible.
In the Illustration will be found one
frock of roulard in a rich woody
brown with white figures. It is devel
oped in much the style of what we
used to call the French waist and is
remarkable for its simplicity. The
other is an afternoon gown of white
swiss demitrain and of a semfdlrec-
toire style, There Is a bertha cape of
the muslin trimmed with rows of va-
lenciennes inaertion. A sash of pink
ribbon is carried once and a half
around the waist and knotted at the
hip. These sashes are very pretty.
I am told on the highest authority
that the day for the big hat has begun
to decline. We may have for a few
weeks yet the styles of winter, but
with the advent of early spring, now
not so very far away, we shall see a
great indifference The same authority
told Die that he thought the natural
reaction would bring us to extremely
small bats. As it is, we see or don’t
see, according to how We are placed.
Wherever wotm-u congregate. What
would women do if men wore such
monstrosities as have been the fashion
this winter? One or two bouses an
showing immense stiffened hoods, sup
posedly for evening. These sre the ex
act prototypes of the very ancient
“calashes” of olden times. And ss
they crush the hair down it is n ques-
ttoa as to their general adoption. They
are made of thin silk, and some an
garnished with lacs and ribbon.
