Fashion would not be fashion if it did not keep constantly changing, and though !t seems to move im a ctrcie, yet the revolving panorama always inshages to throw up something different and new 4m the way of combinations. Manufactured trim- mings have been ignored for the past five years. Ormamentation has been executed with pieces of coutrasting material, and “effects” obtained by putting twoor more fabrics, colors and shades of color together. Evidently trimming manufactu- Fers came to a determination to make an effort and PUL a Stop to this state of things. Passementeries have been revived, and appear in an infinite va- riety of ingenious and effective designs, that are formed lke embroidery of wheel patterns, fan- shapes, a network of braids, interlocked and fas- {ened with minute buttons, or lattice work, with Dorder representing a frame.

This also Is true of the use of colored beads and Unselied effects upon costly materials. ‘They are showered in minute patterns or grouped in small (rangular of diaimond-potnted figures, and some- Umes cover a skirt as small articlal flowers have some skirts of white or black tulle for two seasons Past.

Such a dress was worn in gray, Soft silk recently, the hairdrawn back and twisted into the new “Greek” or “Goddess” knot, and a single Dapnne, white, in its own wavy, gree leaves, fastened tn the breast and the pinked edges.

Ladies who have time and money, who have been abroad, who have studied the art of the old-world Picture galleries and the studios, are copying de- signs from Henry Iii and the rennalssance period for dinner and reception dresses. Of two indoor dresses made recently one was in Diack, the other in two sbades of green, and both were wool, com- bined with velvet and moire tn the one instance and velvet and brocade inthe other, The bodice in the back was a moy-en-age and tothe lower edge of this the skirt, which opened tn front, over a Velvet and moire striped petticoat, was attached, ‘The sleeves were of wool, with small high puffs of velvet, and there Was a small revers and collar of Velvet, above which was a little “canones3” vest and ruMe or white mull and black lace. The ‘striped petticoat only discovered itself in front; the wool, corded and very soft, formed the skirt and was bordered with veivet and ornamented gt the side with knotted silk cords, from which was sus- pended an aims bag of velvet. The gown in twogreens Was a douillette, and had ‘the appearance of 4 double dress, It was open in front to the throat, at the back only to the waist. Into the back of the skirt was inserted a box- plaited panel of the striped velvet and brocade, which produced in two shades of green, by means of cut and uncut wavings, very striking’ effects, A Soft, folded vest of crepe de chine Was inserted in ‘the front of the dress and carried vo the waist, where it was confined by a sash.

A newer style has double fronts, the second forming the sleeves and hanging straight from the shouider to the edge of the skirt. This is very handsowely made upin fine “shadow” or velvet cloths, and trimmed with Labrador caracai or black lynx fur. The design ts also adapted to the rich braiding patterns Which cover the shoulders, extend en- Urely down the front and to the Watst behind. Mahogany red or dark myrtle green, with black ornamentation, are stylish combinations; but an all biack or dark gray reversible silk, which 1s new this season—an Antwerp armure—is peruaps the most elegant of all the cloaking materials, partic. ularly for an elderly lady. This may be lined with plush, With quilted satin or with chinchilla, and trimmed with fur or rich passementeries. Fur capes and capes generally have gone into obitvion.

No “Nihilixt” Party in Russia. From Mr. George Kennan’s first paper in nis series on dussia and Siberia, in the November Century, we take the following remarkable ‘Statement: ‘There ts no protesting party in Russia to which the term “nihilistic” can be properly appited. ‘This may, perhaps, seem like a paradoxical state- ee a lew of fact noe we seer heard of any other protesting party in Russia; Dat it 1s a true statement, nevertheless, ‘There 18 no pay tm the empire wiiich deliberately chooses violence and bloodshed as the best possible means Of attaining 18 ends; «there 18 no party which aims merely at the overthrow of existing institu. ons, and there is ne party which preaches or Practices a philosophy of negation and destruc- Uon. I make these assertions confidently, be- cause my acquaintance with so-called ninilists” 4s probably more extensive and thorough than that of any other fore: and I have discussed these questions with them for many hundreds of hours, Liberals, reformers, socialistic theot Tevolutionists, and “terrorists” I have met in all varieties, both in European Russia and amung the exiles in Siberia; but a nihilist in the proper oreven. in the popular signification of that word—never. Ofcourse, if you Use the term “nihilist,” as you would the term “know-n f,” merely to denote certain social or poutoa. pas y and without ref- erence to the original sis icance of the appella- uon, Pee may apply it to any body of men—to the Knights of Labor, for example; but if you use the word with a consciousness of {ts primary signifi- cation, as you would use yellow to describe an orange, you cannot properly only it toany Dranch of the protesting party in Russia, There 4s in the empire no party, organization, or body of men to which it 1s applicable. ‘The word “‘ninilist” was introduced in Russia by ‘Turgenef, who used it in his novel “Fathers and Children” to describe a certain type of character which had thea recently made its appearance in ‘the ranks of the rising generation and which he contrasted sharply and effectively with the pre- falling types in tue generation which was passt {rom the stage, As applied to Bazaroff, the skept cal, materialistic, iconoclastic surgeon's son in ‘Turgener’s novel, the word “nihilist” had a navural appropriateness which the Russian public at once recoguized. There were differences of opinion as to the question whether auy such class ‘as that represented by Bazaroff really existed, but there Was no difference of opinion with regard to the appropriateness of the term as applied to that Particular character, It was accurately descrip- lve of the wre ‘pe word “nihilist,” however, Was soon caught up by the conservat sand by the Government, avd Was applied tudiscriminately by them as an opprobrious and discrediting nickname to all persons who Were not satisfied With the ex- isting Order of things avd who sought, by any ‘active method whatever, 0 bring about ‘changes in Russian social and political Organization. ‘To Many of the reformers, Iconoclasts, and extreme theorists of that time the term “nihilist” was per- haps fairly applicable—as it certainly was, for example, to Bakunin and his followers—and by some of them it was even accepted in a spirit of Pride and defiance as an appellation which, although @ nick-name, exjressed concisely welt Opposition to ail forms of authority based on force. To the great mass of the Russian malcontents, however, it had then, and bas now, ho appropri- ate reference whatever. It would be quite as fair and quite as reasonable to say that the people in. the United States who were once called “know- nothings” Were persons who really did not know anything as to say Wat the peopie in Russia Who are now calied “ninilisis” are persons Who really do not believe in anything, por respect anything, nor do anything except de- stroy.

It takes a quantity of milk, varying, of course, according to its richness, but never less than 300 ‘liters, Naturally. there are few farmers, especially on the higher mountains whence the cheese origi- nally came, who have herds large enough to obiain in one or even in two days enough milk to make one cheese, Thus from time immemorial the farmers of Franche-Comte have clubbed together In order to obtain the quantity of milk necessary. The farmers of each commune Join together and form a society, managed by an elected’ committee of generally five members, Nothing could be more primitive. Each member 18 bound In turn to make a cheese at his own home, using the milk brought to him by his asso- lates; Uhis cheese remains bis personal property. He ts Chus in-debt to hls colleagues; but he eman- Cipates lttaseif by giving them on’ the following days all the milk of his own cows. Everything 13, done on a very business-like footing. Pieces of wood or notches are used, like those etnployed by country bakers nowadays, Each member Keeps a o.ched list of his colleagues, and tue accounts are settled eacia day, as soon as the cheesemaker (for the nonce) has tecelved his mtik. ‘The preparation of Gruyere cheese requires great care, Atter the curdiing of the inilx comes the baking and the masting of the curd—this latter a delicate eperation, on which the success of the cheese depends. ‘This first part of the cheese making only takes a few hours, but afterward comes the long process of fermentation tn the cel- lars, when, during a space of four months, and sometimes’ six, the cheese must be turned, salted, and well rubbed on its two sides. ‘The salt gives favor to the cheese and regulates the fermenta- on, Every one is not by nature a good cheese maker, Thus the old system of co-operation was, faulty because the cheeses were made by different ‘opie, Also much Ume was lost by the milk aving to be carried every day from one place to another, to say noihing ‘of other tncon- veniences, ‘Thus a new system of association, of Swiss origin, has lately been started, and has nearly superseded the older custom. ‘The cheeses are now generally made in a building con- structed for the “purpose. The members bring their milk to the cheesemaker, Who works on be~ half of the community. ‘The cheeses are no longer the personal property of each individual member; ‘they belong Lo the association, and are sod twice a year wholesale and to traders. The proceeds of the sales are paid proportionately to the quantity of milk furnished by each member.
