This attractive rown consists, of I
skirt having a circular front and three |
b.'ck gores. In all four pieces. The
-Wgf' Wv
jHßgr
waist is of the roupd type, with a
charming Bolero effect in front of
pleated ribbon or silk. A dress of fancy
silk in somewhat gay coloring, was
toned down by black velvet ribbon,
which was used for the Bolero and
was worn as a belt. A heavy woolen
fabric in black, wove with a very open
mesh was made up over green and
blue silk. Bolero was of silk. A brown
camels hair gown with Bolero of yel
low ribbon overlaid with black lace
was very chic.
W 4 a With Pointed Belt.
Charmingly simple design suitable
alike for economical or richest of ma
terials is shown here. Braiding which
-iE>
to. .WBF
is the rage this season, is used with
telling effect on this design, outlining
edges of the upper bodice, belt, and
sleeve laps. Passementire, or a run
ning design in lace also makes a smart
flinish. A dress of brown and blue
wool, had the edge bound with gilt
braid an inch wide, set over the edge
of this was a design in beads and but
tons, showing colors in fabric with a
little black interspersed. A home dress
had the V top at the back and frant,
of yellow velvet inlaid with an open
design in black The belt was black
satin, and the edges of upper bodice
and sleeves were braided in black sou
tache braid, dotted with gold beads.
Kittle Giri’s Blouse Dress.
A pretty shape for little girl’s house I
dresst s is the blouse with large sleeves ■
It is made to fall verv full at the bot-'
tom, being cut slightly circular. The 1

•skirt is straight, simply gathered into
the band. There is no lining either in
sleeve or blouse. The new home spun
linen and cotton fabrics make ex
tremely servicable dresses for house
wear. One of wine color had the col- I
lar aid ruffles of light blue 1 atisti.'
Another that resembled a wool che
viot being woven in a wide diagonal
of brown and white, had a brown
linen collar, with ruffles of white em
broidery. Woolens are trimmed with
ruffles of embroidery or ruffles of the
fabric An effective and inexpensive I
trimming for striped, checked or I
other fancy goods is formed of ruffles
of a plain color to match one of the
colors in figured fabric. White lawn
with blue pink or yellow lawn collar
and sleeve band is dainty.
Charmiug Jacket For Gin’s.
All the newest features of this sea
son’s coats are shown in this model.
The sailor collar, the moderate sleeve,
and short godet back. A picturet-que
garment of this style was of scarlet
cloth, with trimmings of black fox
fur, black soutache braid, and flat gilt
buttons. Tobacco brown cloth with
trimming of beaver and narrow gilt
braid, had also gilt buttons. A blue
beaver with trimming of braid only as
shown in the smaller illustration |
makes a serviceable school jacket.
Black cloth with collar of roysl blue

a smart combination for a girl’s best
coat. The dull mixtures in tweed and
cheviot may be brightened by having
a collar of bright red cloth, or of a
plain cloth to harmonize with main
fabric.
Izdiet Jacket With Vest.
Some of the handsomest of the
jackets are cut on Louis XIV lines,
having a fitted vest of a contrasting
and generally a lighter colored fabric,

A coat of dark green cloth with
vest of puff colored cloth elaborately
embroidered silks, had collar and arms
of sable. A black velvet coat had a
white satin vest embroidered in gay
colors, and collar and revere of er
mine. A blue jacket with vest of
white cloth heavily braided in black
was stylish and useful. The collar and
revers were of the cloth braided. A
I browm cloth with vest of brocade in
I lighter browns, had collar and revere
, of cloth, edged with black marten or
skunk fur.
Lidy’a Night Dress.
Night robes made in the old fash
ioned sack shape with large sleeves
and a big collar are very pretty, and

have the advantage of requiring less
material than other shapes. The back
I may be made with a bias seam, which
• avoids piecing at the bottom, and cuts
I to better advantage. The ease with
which these gowns may be laundered
recommends them to many. Loung
ing or bath robes are cut after the
same model being liked as they are
less bulky than those with pleats or
gathers at the top. Batiste is the ma
terial used when any nice gowns are
made. A sailor is made of fine Ham
burg edging, which is seamed from
ail the corners to the neck, to bring
all the scallops around the edge.
White lawn is also used and with a
collar of the same, tiimmed on the
edge withan insertion of Valenciennes
lace, and beyond this a ruffle of the
plain lawn or of embroidery, is very
dainty. A collar with embroidery set
on with braiding through which deli
| cate colored ribbons are drawn is also
pretty. • _ _
THE ROME TBIBUNE, SUNDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1096.
PICTURE ON A HILL.
The Dong Man of Wilmington, England
Measures 240 Feet.
About midway between Berwick and
Polegate stations, at a pbint where the
side of the hill is very precipitous, those
who know exactly the spot where to
look will be able to see from the rail
way carriage windows a sort of rude
imitation of the human form outlined
in white. The figure, which is between
200 and 300 feet in height, holds a long
staff in each hand. This is “the Long
Man of Wilmington,’’ once the center
of profound veneration and worship,
but now merely an object of interest to
the curious.
In order to obtain an adequate idea of
this great hillside figure, dominating
the surrounding country and appearing
to watch as guardian over the little vil
lage below, it is desirable 'to approach
it afoot, tramping along the winding
lanes, as the pilgrims of old must have
tramped when they came hither on the
occasion of some great religious festival.
Seen from afar, the figure does not ap
pear to be of remarkable size, but grad
ually, as one approaches the hill, it as
sumes an imposing and definite shape.
The figure, about 240 fefet in height,
was merely shaped in the turf so as to
allow the chair to appear through. In
the course of time these depressions in
the surface became almost impercepti
ble, and to such an extent was the fig
ure neglected that at last it was only
possible to make out the form at a dis
tance when the slight hollows were
marked by drifted snow or when the
oblique rays of the rising or setting sun
threw them into a deep shadow. In or
der to preserve the form of the Long
Man, and to render it at the same time
easily distinguishable at a distance the
outline was marked by a single line of
white bricks placed closely together.
The effect has been to produce a some
what startling figure, which is plainly
visible in fine weather from a great dis
tance.
There are in different parts of the
country other examples of extremely
rude and early hillside figures, and, al
though the very fact of their great an
tiquity renders it unlikely that histor
ical or documentary evidence will bo
forthcoming as to their design or precise
purpose, it is very satisfactory to find
that an explanation has been found
which will at once account for many of
their peculiarities.
The theory is that these are sacrificial
figures. We learn from the writings of
Caesar that the Gauls (and the Britons
were doubtless included) had figures of
vast size, the limbs of which, formed of
osiers, they filled with living men. The
figure was ultimately fired, and the
miserable victims perished in the flames.
There is a local saying in Sussex,
probably of great antiquity, in which
the Long Man is mentioned in reference
to the weather. It runs:
When Firle hill and Long Man has a cap,
We at A’ston gets a drap.
NINE MONTHS IN BED. CURED
24 HOURS.
T. J. Blackmore, of Haller & Blackmore
Pittsburg, Pa., says: “A short time since I
procured a bottle of “Mystic Cure.” It got
me out of the house in twenty-four hours.
I took to my bed with Rheumatism nine
months ago and the “Mystic Cure” is the
only medicine that did any good. I had
five of the best physicians in the city, but
received very little relies tom them. I
know that Mystic Cure to be what it is rep
resented and take pleasure n racomending
it to ether sufferers.”

TIME
TRIED
Time proves the worth of every
thing. It is the test of honesty. It
wears off tbe exterior and exposes the
solidity or the worthlessness beneath.
There is nothing more susceptible
to time than a piano. The Kranich &
Bach is a piano which has stood the
test of time, which has stood well in
tone, which keeps its perfect action
and elastic touch is as good as any
we can offer you. Beware of judging
hastily. Most pianos sound alike
when they are new. I will be glad to
help any one to piano wisdom who
cares to "learn.
