Massed together in a big bay- window, tied with ribbons and lined with pink, blue, or lavender tissue paper, the lace @od "embroidery turned to the tr ments which look as if composed alm Of these materials, marked 79 cents. It Is not surprising that girls and inexperienced women should be a little bewildered. But there are thousands of others—experienced, well-to-do— ‘who can afford to pay fairly for _whatis done for them; yet, who will go from block to block and street t avenue, to buy a showy, over- timmed chemise or ‘nightgown a few cents cheaper or with a little more trimming upon it the price; for itis less to save the money | n toadd to the volume of ornamentation, ttime isspent and trouble taken, In one ‘are women’s drawers tucked and trim- | med With embroidery, finished with bands and | button holes for 29 cents!

The sewing machine as not done much for the paid worker. THE NEW THIN ‘There are many beautiful things; and if not many that are new, many new applications of old ideas, if one only knows where to look for The fault of the “popular” styles 1s, t they are indiscriminate. The beauty of fa3hion—that is, of those models which Tepresént the taste and intelligence of an ex- perienced and cultivated eiass—is, that ea one is adapted toa special purpose: and has had thought and care bestowed upon its every detail. Oneot the best tests of quality to-d iscolor, All the old, soft, lovely shades of color yeappear and are put together In exquisite com- Dinations without forming any startling econ- Yrasts. These colors are fast—iast in cotton as ‘Well as silk—but it is bard to describe them or to make the uninitiated appreciate their value. Sent toa distance from the business centers where women generally have a better oppor- tunity for education in color—the receiver is Very apt to think she has been im- — upon; and that “old” goods been sent to her instead of new. The difficulty in describing them lies in ‘the universal inaccuracy of the use of term: 4 nd the putting of the natural vocabulary to artificial uses. ‘Thus, there isa lovely, new Breen—a quiet, grassy shade—which combines ‘with gray; but is no more like what we are ac- customed to call “grass-green” than the green of the paper shade is like that of the dark, ground-myrtle. All the different shades of | sandstone and graystone, bark brown, old “stone” blue and tinted white appear in the Bner materials, such as chuddah cloths and pure Indian casimeres; the former being equally ine, but having the ‘camel's hair finish. A novel combination is Redfern’s latest touch in a hal little garment called the Newport ‘ket. The material is fine, sandstone cloth, med with “peach” velvet; a lovely, dark shade with, asolt bloom upon it. Upoi this an “all-over” embroidery is execuied by hand: in_ co which is & mixture of pei silk an copper thread. The idea is juite new and very Clive and the color is reproduced in the silk linin: A daughter of one of the millionaires who hay. Fecently settied in New York, has ordered a costume in this combination, to include jacket aud hat. The dress will have a panel, pointed collar and facing for drapery of the embroidered Velvet; and it will also form the crown, brim and upright leaves for the hat. Some very Stylish, Erez, wool dresses have been made re- cently; the embroidery executed with oxydized | silver cord, or rather, thread. The work is equal to any done abroad; but it is very costly: ‘and few expect to possess more than a small quantity of it upon a jacket or mantle; but the effect is very novel and distinguished: and a gray cloth costume with silver embroidered Panel and bonnet, as well as jacket or mantle, ‘would render the wearer a woman of mark. LENTEN cosTuMES, Gray divides the honors with black asa Lenten costume; and the very newest “service” touches consist of gray, cloth dress with oxy- dized embroidery upon the jacket; aud crown and brim of the bonnet; and a ' embossed, Jeather prayer-book with old silver’ clasps and mountings. A dress which may be and is worn with an oxydized silver em! idered jacket consists of a combination of plain gray mate- rial with a round, moon-figured cloth in two shades of the same color and an inner line of white. The figured wool was used for the front of theskirt and the jacket-podice including sleeves; the plain for back of skirt, plaited sides and knife plaitings at the foot. Stripes are still used; but some ladies are replacing them With very large checks; the lines forming the heck being narrow, the blocks large. A dress of this kind was recently made for the Princess of Wales—without triinining—except a drapery of the material crossing the Jacket-badice from the right shoulder to the leit of waist. There wasa drapery front and back over @ kilted skirt. A handsome black se: on wiih Very fine elust in front; a full back, se dress made for ight skirt, made red plaits and wide spaces hanging in gathered folds and a short, perfectly fitting basque, traversed by Jetted straps which formed diagonal lines Hnished with long, jetted buttons. Stripes are used in ail sorts of’ ways—upright and in bays. | dere fashion—but the newest thing is to have them form diagonal lines. THE LENNOX JACKET 4s a pfetty novelty in white cloth. ‘The collar, euifs and corners are embroidered in simple chain or outline stitch, witu acolor, but not a striking color. The soft, gray blue, known as Sevres, the delicate sea-blue, called the Solent | ‘oF the rich “peach” shade in silk, mixed with gold thread,are all very much admired; ‘and ean be used by auy worker, the patterns being | easily executed.

A suit of gray wool made tn this way had two sets of trimming, both made upon cream flannel; one set was striped in alternate lines of red stk and Japanese gold braid, the other embroidered bitte silk. EADED EDGES have disappeared from first-class tallormade gowns and jackets; but are universal on popu- lar sp: ing styles—Jackets, basques, vests, bon- nets, hats, panels, mantles—everything upon which beads can be put. Dark straw hats are seen in the street with beaded brims, or rims, in glass, which reflect all the colors of the rain- bow. In many cases the beaded addition— coarse and showy—las no relation whatever to the front. the article upon which it is expended, or to the costume of Which the article itself forms a part; and is nothing, therefore, but a bit of barbaric glitter. But of beaded embroidery and beaded carn ts there is an almost iniinite variety, is very rich and expensive. Cos- tumes are seen upon the street, the wide pan- elied sides and mantels of which are masses of beads and beaded work; and if the wearer chooses, her bonnet, gloves and hosiery can be chased studded ‘or wrought to mateh. A ze dress exhibited lately had panels and ate embroidered with metalliesilk cord and ds, in Various shades ot gold,bronze and gar- het, itermingled with bronze shells and pend- ants; and edged with metallic fringe mixed with shaded cheniile tipped with brouze beads. Stories of Arabian spiendor pale before the efieet of half a dozen such costumes, reflecting ying with every movement, all the rth, airand sky. What it would be any number of women could adopt and if they should add to the beaded and bonnet, the hose and the gloves, the d satin boots aud the beaded parasol, hardly be imagined. The usual procession of women upon a thoroughtare would be more rrible than “an army with banners.” ‘The sparent tissues were a novelty last re now extended to colored rancies. By this is not meant ng upon lace, but fine beaded netting and open work, in upright Teaves and ladder-like ‘orins, which show noting but the bead work Wd tie lining beneath (if there is any).

THE “DEPRESSED” EMBROIDERIES do not refer to any condition of the market; but to the newest idea in decorative work for cos- vumes; especially costumes made of wool; and “complet” for walking or traveling. Last year, embroidery applique was the novelty, and con- tle, Ligh on the shoulder and pointed—of —studde outin velvet or plush and embroidered on in out- line, in beaded or embroidery stitch; and often Veitied in stitches and colors that made a very eifeetive, though not expensive display of orna- mentation, ‘The new method is quite different from this. “Upon, or over, the foundation ma- terial—which may be gray cloth—another ma terial, say green’ cloth, is stitched.

Oxydized silver and gray chenille embroider well upon gray in conjunction with greens arranged as vest or pointed collar aud panel ior skirt; and panel for the center of the upright crown of the bonnet. From incidental remarks it will be understood that THE NEW SPRING BONNET isa many-sided and, figuratively, very elastic Production, Literally, ifyou have the money to pay, you can take your choice of what there 4s. The difficulty seemsto be a heterogeneous commingling of qualities. There is roughness, without simplicity; quantity, without adequate result; much high color and savage glitter, Wien the season’ demands low, tender’ tones and a sense of refreshment and awakening lite. Dead birds, impaled insects, beaded. butterflies and metallic frogs are all out of place with the Sweet spring odors in the air; and the recurring miracle of grass.and flowers springing up by the wayside. Keep these artificial adjuncts, these stuffed carcasses of what were living things, for the artificial light of the ball roou: ifone must have them; but do not parade them in the sunlight of a newly created world. Still, there are always possibilities—remote some: times and to be diligently looked for—but gens erally to be found even in bonnets, by the par tient seeker. Among them this’ season kre pretty cottage bonnets of thatched straw with upright, putfed trimming of soft tissues in tinted Silk or crepe, fastened with dainty little pius, hay forks in minature. and showing "a bunch of field daisies or buttercups and clover as a finish, One charming bonnet of this shape was faced with black velvet, and trimmed with upright puis of soft ivory’silk and a mixed bunch of white roses—half opened—and lilies ot the val- ley. Embroidered crepe is much used in the making of dressy little bonnets; not as crowns alone, but tor the entire bonnet; the edge fin: ished'with rows of small rosary beads, with @ tripie design formed of small loops of’ narrow gold braid; or with a scant pufling of gold net Strapped ‘with loops of metallic cord. The plaited, Mother Hubbard front reap com- ined with small, upright, fluted or shel Shaped erown, the trimming forming a ladder of large loops, to which flowers mounted as an rette, adds both height and depth, the ar rangement throwing them back towards the crown as well as above the brim. The transpa- rent jetted bonnets are the great feature in black designs; not necessarily for mourning, but tor wear with ail black, summer toilets, The patterns in Jetted lace aré much finer than any seen heretoiore, and instead of solid leaves and patterns which’give the effect of passemen- terie, they reproduce sueh fine designs as are seen in oid Mechlin, TEN YEARS A FICHU. “What are you going to have for your sum- mer dress?” “This question was asked of a lad; who, though a fashionable woman, has a rep tation for being generally well dressed. “Ont the same old thing,” she replied. “What is the same old thing?” was the rejoinder. “Well, when one must dress within certain limits, there is not much choice. I have worn a black, lace ficha for ten years—that is, not one. flehu, but Several, one Succeeding ahother—and ast have made up my mind I could not do better, I have just bought a new one.” “But Is that all you wear? It seems to be rather a Georgian costume.” “Well, no,” she said, “not quite. I Suppose you would add a string of beads; but I gonotgo in for beads and that sort of thing. My principal summer dress for ten years has been Diack silk of soft and light but durable quality, a black lace bonnet and biack lace nena." Last year I had a branch of white lilac on my bonnet; this year I shall have cowslipsor mustard, I have not made up my mind whieh. in an expansive mood ‘this year and must have something sunshiny and yellow.” ‘There are any quantity of women like this good lady, who want one nice dress for the summer it’ Will do tor church and calling, and rack ir poor brains year after year to to try to find something diiferent, so that people across the aisle will know that the dress is new.

When the dress is trimmed with stripe, the cuffs are of the stripe; but in the case of flowered or figured cotton, or'sott silks, there would be no contrast; flat lace or fine needlework, laid flat upon the material, forming the best trimming. JENNIE JUNE, —————+e¢____"* THRILLING DOUBLE CRIME. A Man of Fifty Killing the Womai Who Rejected Him. AFTERWARD, PURSUED BY AN ANGRY CROWD, HE RAN TO THE EDGE OF A BROOK A MILE AWAY, TOOK A DOSE OF STRYCHNINE, AND DIED. ‘The town of Oxford, about fifteen miles north- west of New Haven Conn., probably the oldest and best known country town in Conneeticut, was the scene of a thrilling double tragedy Mon- day. James Andrew, who worked as hired man for various parties in Oxford, and was about 50 years old, has recently been paying attentions to Miss Elsie M. Williams, a pretty and refined dressmaker, who resided with her mother and younger sister. Miss Williams was about 40 Years of age, and was a daughter of the late Nelson B. Williams. For several years past she has worked out in well-to-do families at Oxtord and adjacent towns, and has thereby managed to support her mother and sister, who are in straitened circumstances. Last week she made an agreement to work for her sister, Mrs. O. C. Osborn, Monday, and early that morning went thither. During’ the early part of the morning she worked in company with Mrs, Osbern and her family, and seemed unusualiy cheer al At about ten o'clock a knock was heard at the door, and with a joking query as to who could be'there so early in the morning, Mrs, Osborn arose and went to the door, She had no sooner opened it and perceived that the vis- itor was Andrew thun she shrank back a frighted at the strange expression on his fac He did not seem to notice her at all, but hastil strode into the room and inquired for Mis Williams. Hardly waiting for an answer to his query as to Miss Williams’ whereabouts, he rapidly ‘walked into the sitting-room, where she was sitting. Approaching her he’blurted out: “Elsie, I Want to ask you once more if you will marry’me?” The “once more” in his question was omi- nous of trouble, but Miss Walliams did not seem to notice it: She laughingly replied in the negative, hardly raising her eyes from her work. ‘To her amazement Andrew grew very passionate, He excitedly referred to her pre- Vious refusals of his suit, aad urged her change her answer. Shrinking back in aftright, Alls Williams told him that her answer was final. She had hardly got the words out of her mouth before Andrew darted into a sort_of closet or ceilarway opening into the room. He ppeared with an axe. Rushing up art, who was petrifled by iright he shoute Then, if you won't marry me, Vil kill you.” ‘Suiting the’ action to the word, he whirled the axe over his shoulder and brought it down, blade foremost, on Miss Williains’ head with crushing foree, Maddened by the sight of blood, which poured trom the wound, the now thordughly infuriated madman struck second blow on tlie head of his prostrate Victim and again cut a deep gash. Before the mem- bers of the fatnily could break the speli of hor ror which held them bound to the spot the murderer had darted from the house. M. Williams lay gasping on the floor in the midst ofa rapidly forming pool of her own blood, and the spectators of tue awful deed were too much transiixed with horror to render her any assist- ance, In the mean time the alarm had been spread through the town, and almost the entire male population turned out to avenge the crime. ‘he searching party was soon largely auginent- ed, and on every hand a determination was expressed of lnsiant lynching of Andrew if he Was caught. As the party neareda brook which flowed through the town a shout arose from those in the ‘van, and hastily closing up, the stragglers soon saw Andrew stretched out at full length on the bank of the brook a corpse. By his side lay an empty bottle labelled “‘sul- ph: le of strychnine,” and in a broken glass athand were afew drops of some bitter- tasting drug. “—_———+e+— The Case of Secretary Manning. THE CAUSE OF CEREBRAL APOPLEXY. The Medical Record, in an article on “The Cause and Prognosis of Cerebral Apoplexy,” says to-day: The unfortunate illness which has attacked Secretary Manning calls attention tosome of the facts which the modern pathologist has de- veloped, or is still studying, with regard to the subject of cerebral hemorrhage. One fact which the pathologist has not perhaps felt called on to investigate is the apparent increase, relatively and absolutely of this trouble. In England and Wales, during the years 1850-54, the averase annual death rate from apoplexy per_ million inhabitants was 454.2, while in 1870-'74 it was 523.8. During the ‘same periods the ratio of deaths from brain diseases increased from 192.4 to 248.6. In New York city the total deaths from apoplexy and hemiplegia in 1874-75 amounted to 1.35 per cent of the total death rate; in 1884 the percentage was 1.8, Even bearing In mind the fact that more persons Feach ‘the apoplectic age now than did thirty Years ago It still remains probable that apoplex- ies are on the increase, Modern pathology has shown that the prim- ary cause of cerebral hemorrhages is, in the great majority of cases, the bursting of millary aneurisms which have’ developed on. the cere- bral vessels as the result of a local periarteritis. ‘The most important supplemental cause to this is an increased arterial tension due to heart dis- ease, plethora with corpulence and disease of the kidni ith the arterial sclerosis often ac- compan: Chareot found hypertrophied iz heart in forty per cent of cases of cerebral hem- orrhage, and renal disease In 324 per cent. The cause of the miliary aneurisms is naturally the point that should inost interest the ph ysictan, there little progress has been made, We know in general that they develop almost solely in persons passed toriy, while trom fifty toseventy is the apoplectic ‘age. As in five- sixths of the cases atheroma of the arteries is present, we may attribute the aneurisms to much the’same cause as the atheroma, viz: de. generative changes natural to old age, chronic alcoholism, specific disease and continual ex- cesses and xposure of almost ull kinds. ‘They develop more often in men, and heredity, a6 shown by HugilingsJackson and Diellafoy, undoubtedly:piays its part. Itis still & matter ot such @ thing as the‘ some doubt whether poplectic habit” exists. Most systematic writers of late years deny It, but it is very evident that many of these aut thorities either “speak by the book” or argue from a hospital experience among the poor, who do not suifer from corpulence. We re ‘our- selves much inclined to side with Immermann, ho places apoplexy among the prominent ‘complications and sequelie” of corpulence, es ecially if with it there is plethora, A corpu- lent man who has passed the age of fifty is more Ukely, other things being equal, to have de- generated arteries and higher arterial tension than aspare man. He is in more danger of an intracranial hemorrhage. Brain-workers are not by virtue of their work made liable to apoplexy. This isa disease of nutrition and of the blood-vessels; its causes are senility, exposure and intemperate livimg in the broddest sense. Whatever puts off old age delays degenerative changes and lessens also the tendency to apopiexy. ‘The prognosis after an attack occurs relates to life and to health in the future, should lite be preserved. Quick onsets, quickly recovered from, are more favorablé than those coming on slowly. When the attack comes on without loss of coi sclousness, as was the case we ate told, with Secretary Manning, the prognosis quoad’ vam is very good. If ldss of consciousness 1s pro- found, und ‘lasts twenty-four or forty-elght hours, the outlook is most ominous. Butone of the worst prognosticators of the future Is the clinical thermometer. A progressive rise or steady fall of temperature is a most favorable sign. The extent of the paralysis, and aphasia, if that exists, gives a fair indication of the ex. tent of the lesson, and this, in connection with 8 history of ts ‘progress during’ tho first tort. night after the atuick, wilt tell how much of mental or physical restoration can take place.
