The Greatest of English Radicals.
.Robert tairfi Collier in Chicago Tribune.
Mr. Chamberlain spoke as it struck 12.
The speech marks an epoch in English
politics. It is the most significant utter
ance ever made by a Cabinet Minister in
Europe. Air. Chamberlain says bold and
even venturesome things, but his bold and
venturesome utterances are always pre
meditated. Air. Chamberlain has counted
the cost and taken all the risks of his re
markable speech ou this important oc
casion. He spoke last night to the whole
country. There were present the repre
sentative leaders of the Liberal party
of the whole kingdom, and to these and
through these be addressed his programme
for a “new reform bill” to the nation. It
is a programme not for Mr. Gladstone. It
is certain Air. Gladstone would repudiate
everv single item in it. But it is the pro
gramme of the younger Radicals, and, no
doubt. John Morley knew beforehaud
what this Birmingham crusader would
address to the meeting. This Cabi
net Minister said that at Air. Bright s
reception Monday “there were no repre
sentatives of royalty present—and nobod)
missed them.” He said further that the
country is becoming more and more radi
cal and democratic.” This new pro
gramme includes manhood suffrage, rep
resentation. based upon population, and
paid member* of Parliament.
Many Radicals have uoi, been quite sat
isfied that Mr, Chamberlain remained hi
Ihe Ministry when Mr. Bright left itbs
cause of this Egyptian wickedness. His
silence has sometimes begotten suspicion.
All this is past. He has atoned <or all.
No d”ubt he has been wiser thau his
" ill's Maybe his critics have spurred

young MioUtcr of the OTin T 18 .“J®
jnost splendid he ever made. I n*.. _ >
saw Joseph Chamberlain aban
doned before. Last night he was thrilled
bv his OWE visions and prophecies and his
audience his fire God grant to
this knight-errant ail $e magnificent
spoils ol hi* pictured conquests, for cer
tainly he was on a political fhsgab on
this occasion which was the apotheosis of
a political career which he may well in
voke as his inspiration.

i,':.
Charleston, June 28.—The fast ex
press train from Summerville this morn
ing, when three miles from this city, was
turned from the main track into a Vidin*'
by a misplaced switch and came into col
lision with two loaded cars which were
standing on a side track. Engineer J. S.
bmitb was instantly killed, and the col
ored tireman, named Paul Washington
received injuries from which he died later
in the day. The engine was demolished,
and the engineer’s liody cut completely in
two.
There was al>out 150 passengers on the
train, none of whom were hurt.
They owe their lives to the heroism of
the engineer, who, instead of jumping
from the engine after the train left the main
track, occupied himself during the run
of <5 y ards to the scene of the collision in
reversing the engine and putting on the
air brakes.
The accident was caused bv the care
lessness of a septum piaster, who was re
pairing the switch at the time.
The Coroner’s jury lays all the blame
on section master H. G Stewart. He
vt as arrested and has been committed to
jail in default of $2,000 bail.

Trio of Counterfeiters.
New York, June 28.—Isaac A. Briggs,
a broker, Wesley Lyon, a lawyer, and
Emil Brie, a lawyer, nearly 70 years of

shrouded in mystery, occurred yesterday.

pistol shot was heart! from his wife’s
chamber, she being in a delicate condition
and confined to her bed. The startled
family found her in the last agonies of
death, tbe ball having entered under her
left breast. Her husband made an unin
telligible remark, and, rushing out, re
turned with some of his neighbors, one of
whom, raising Mrs. Ross’s head, asked
how it happened. Her husband replied
by catching up the pistol, placing it at
his own temple and firing. He fell dead
beside his wife.

Lower than when Mcfleoch, Evering

the past two weeks, and the announce
ment was made .at uoon that
11. O. Kenyon ifc Cos. and John Sinclair
had succumbed. They have been dealing
in grain, but were rated as very extensive
dealers. One cause assigned lor the un
usual weakness displaxtgd by the market

McGeoch, Everingham & Cos., and M. S.
Nichols *fc Cos., particularly the latter firm,
from whom a better report as to assets
had been anticipated.

IRELAND’S UNFORTUNATES.
The Anchor Line to Create Trouble
Over the Return Passage.
New \ork, June 28.—The Commission
ers of Immigration to-day resolved that
all immigrants coming to this port from
almshouses or eleemosynary institutions
of any foreign country be reported to the
Collector of the port as unable to take
care of themselves without becom
ing a public charge, unless authentic
evidence to the contrary is produced,
and that the Collector be asked to detain
in the stream vessels carrying immigrants
for a time sufficient to permit a thorough
examination by the inspectors. An offi
cer of the Anchor Line said to-day that
they would not take any passengers" back
without pay unless it is proved that thev
are likely to become public charges.
London, June 28.—The -Vews this morn
ing says: “It is perfectly within Amer
ica’s right to prevent the landing of Irish
paupers on her shores. The gross negli
gence in shipping them is most cruel. If
assisted emigration continues it must be
conducted differently. There is no reason
to believe that the government hasco-ope
rated with any other agency than that of
Mr. 1 ukes, but mere inaction is not now
enough.”
Sir Trevelyn, Chief Secretary for Ire
land, in replying in the House of Com
nions this afternoon to the questions of
Mr Cowan as to whether it was true that
paupers had been sent to America with
tite knowledge and consent of the British
Government, said that the reports about
the lauding of paupers in America were
greatly exaggerated. He stated ttlat the
steamer Anchoria took no inmates of any
workhouse, and that all emi
grants sent by the Commis
sioners have been supplied with funds.
Iso paupers had lieen sent out bv the
Board ot Guardians. Secretary Trevelyn
also said that telegrams from America on
the subject should be received with great
caution. He said the Furnesia took 421
emigrants, ot whom only live families had
been m the workhouse, and in each of
these cases friends in America had offered
them a home. He had himself seen all
the tickets of the emigrants, including
the railway tickets from the other side,
that they had also a cheek for the full
amount of the landing allowance, which
lor adults is £1 and for children 10 shil
lings each. Secretary Trevelyn also said
that the question relating to the action of
the American government in the matter
should lie addressed to the Foreign office,
as his business was simply to ascertain
whether the administrative details of
Irish emigration were carried out as iar
as possible.
Air. Lowther, Conservative, gave notice
that he would at an early jlay call atten
tion to the subject.
Dublin, June 28.—The Secretary of the
Pukes fund declares that all emigrants
who have been assisted to go to America
by the fund, have been sent direct to rela
tives or friends in that country, and have
been provided with money on landing.
OHIO.
The Manipulations of Hon. Samuel J.
Tilden.
Cleveland (O.) Special.
The candidate for Senator whom Ward
lias to fear and who will beat him is the
Hon. Henry B. Payne, once Congress
man from the Twentieth Ohio Dis
trict by the help of money and
the Hon. Dick Parsons’ unpopu
larity. But in the series of political
schemes that bearing fruit will be con
summated iu 1884, Payne’s nomination
and electiort will be but the second act.
Iloadly’s nomination was the tirst. The
greatest is then to follow, and it is none
less than carrying the Ohio electoral vote
for Samuel J. Tilden in 1884.
The Greystone Sage’s “fine Italian”
hand was in the Hoadly nomination. He
knew and trusted the Cincinnati jurist,
who assisted in his case before the
Electoral Commission. Payne also
was one of the body. Hoadly knew
Tilden’s wishes at Cincinnati in 1880.
and would have acted up to them
had not the balance of the delegation,
and especially Ward, held him to Thur
man, who was more of a power then than
now. Tilden dallied; was not a candi
date; hoping, yet undecided, as he had
lieen once before, fatally; was afraid to
order anything, and Hancock got
the New York vote. Corporation
Counsel of New York, Wliitnev, had
ww tbis offered to give Payne the New
, °>‘k delegation, hut Ohio hesitated and
lost its chance. Whitney u fully in the
confidence of Tilden and is also henry B
Payne’s son-in-law, He was here a short
tune ago, but left for Paris on the news of
the death of one child and serious ill
ness of two more. Two Til
den henchmen, A. C. Canda
and AV. 11. Barnura, both of the national
organization when Tilden made his big
fight in 1876, have been here during the
last two weeks, have been to Columbus
also, and rumor says that Hoadly, Payne,
and they met here and discussed some
weighty plan less thau two weeks ago.
All this fits in with the idea of the triple
alliance, Hoadly-Payne-Tilden. It is a
winning combination, too, so far as the
Democracy is concerned. Let the old
thing kick as it likes the slate will go
through. Republican success alone can
break it. That looked far away a week
ago, but now is coming nearer.
The rural Democracy are huffy from one
end of the State to the other, and tfie Be
publicfins ready for a hard yet silent
light. Reduced majorities even will en
courage them, and the fight will be re
newed until either Samuel J. Tilden, of
New York, does or does not secure the
eleotoral vote of Ohio.
THE GOLDEN SPIKE
Of the Northern Pacific Road to be
Driven in August.
Boston Herald.
Information has been received in St.
Paul that active preparations are being
made for the driving of the lat spike of
the connection of the Northern Pacific
with the Atlantic and the opening up of
this section of the country, The spike is
of gold, and its driving will be made an
occasion never to be forgotten by the
people ol the Northern Pacific country.
The spike is now in the possessio'n
of President Villard. It has engraved
upon it an inscription suitable to the
occasion. The place selected for its re
ceptiqn is about ten mileq from Helena, in
the direction of Portland. It was at first
the intention of the company to restrict
the number of ipvited guests to 100,
but the intense manifested in the
event is so great that arrangements have
now been made for 400 people. Quite a
number of these will be from Europe, all
ot whom will come to this country simply
for this purpose. The invitations will be
issued from New York and by President
Yillard himself. A. special train will be
made up at tlie’metropolis, anil run
from there direct to the spot se
lected, stopping only at Chicago
and St. Paul to take on invited guests.
President A’illard himself will give
the spike the first whack, but if it should
not then be driven home, several other
equally prominent gentlemen will be per
mitted to try their hand at spike driving.
The spike itself will not be the only thing
made of a precious metal. The sledge
with which it tyUl he driven ig now being
manufactured, JR is ol boTiff silver, with
an ebony handle. Both the spike and
sledge will be retained by President Aril
lard as souvenirs of the crowning effort of
his life. From the site selected the special
train will go on to the Pacific coast, re
peating the inspection trip recently made
by Mr Villard The eaact date' of the
ceremony has not yet been fixed upon,but
It will probably fip |q the latter paft of the
last week of August.

SUMMER NOTES FROM FASH
ION’S AVORKSHOPS.
Country Dressing—Toilets at Weddings
—The Fascinations of Fashion anil the
Art Element In Dre*s—The New Fea
tures in Lingerie—The Latest Style*
in Parasols.
New York, June 28.—June has been famous
for the numberof weddings which have taken
place under its rosy auspices, and which recall
the time when it was preferred to any other
month in the year, probably because Boxvers
were more easily attainable rather than on
account of the good fortune the month was
supposed to confer on the happy brides and
their fortunate grooms. Now they are con
sidered interesting chiefly because a June
wedding is always a “pretty” wedding.
Roses bloom everywhere and blossoming vines
trail irregularly'or form lovely screens where
a few weeks before only smilax hung.
Larger latitude is also given to toilets. The
bride, of course, must wear the conventional
silk or satin, but the bridesmaids flutter about
her in dainty white mull or nun’s veiling,
short and with belted waists, their straw
hats trimmed with flowers, ami their whole
appearance as fresh and sweet its a typical
June morning.
Of toilets recently worn and approved as
possessing the cachet of good taste, one bv the
bride was of rich white corded silk (bride’s
silk,)—not so large a cord as ottoman and not
lustrous, but with, a soft heavy satin finish
Bodice: a low square, felled in with Due-h
--eme lace and finished with a ruche at the
throat, in which were thickly set natural or
ange blossoms. Sleeves: a mere rim of silk
and laec. skirt: long-trained, perfectly plain
but finished with a pleating both interiorly
and exteriorly—the outer one of silk, the in
ner one of lace. The bodice is st raight around
the waist anil belted iu with satin, which forms
a large rosette upon one side. Tlie veil of tulle
trailed nearly to the edge of tlie skirt, and
was fastened over the hack hair w ith pearl
pins. The bridesmaids' dresses were of white
India mull, short, trimmed with Oriental
lace. The bodices were full, crossed over
and belted in with moire ribbon. The sleeves
were to the elbow, and the hats w ere trimmed
with flowers matching those thev carried as
bouquets—two daisies, two primroses, twj
violets.
Two young ladies who were not brides
maids attracted a great deal of attention at
this weddnig by the taste and simplicity of
their costumes. They consisted of short
dresses of Quaker gray surah, pleated, and
completed by beautifully fitting Jersey bod
ices. Over the very close-fitting sleeves,
abort upon the arm, were stretched undressed
gloves of ivory kid and small poke bonnets of
ivory kid were stylishly ornamented with
a group of ivory-white feathers.
Another dress showing the extent to which
leather is used, was of biscuit colored satin
with piping of gold and black, and outstand
ing collar of gold embroidered lace, cuffs to
match. The hat was a brown biscuit shade
straw, with gold rim, and five straps of light
brow n kid around the crown, fas tened with
small, real gold buckles.
A short toilet, considered very distinguish
ed, was wholly of cream satin and gold lace
with bonnet composed of satin roleaux plait
ed into a trellis work for the crown; gold lace
front; gold rosettes upon the side; and gold
lace drapery upon the hips, drawn to the left
with gob l rosettes. The gloves extended upon
the upper arm, and there was a Queen Anne
collar of gold lace at the throat.
Embroidered nun’s veiling or India muslin
trimmed with lace are used by bridesmaids at
summer weddings, and present a pretty, less
conventional, and more seasonable appear
ance than the orthodox silk and brocade,
whether maile with or without trains. But
brides rarely avail themselves of tlie privilege
which the thermometer in the 80’s and yo’s
might be supposed to accord them. Tlie long
corded or ottoman silk or thick satin is often
the most orthodox pattern, and the very high
bodice filled in with a thick ruche adds to
the burden and discomfort. But there is a
reason for this adherence to regulation
costume in the use to which it will be put for
great occasions in the future—occasions
which wall demand a costlv toilet with some
thing ot bridal purity in its tint and for
which a mere muslin would not be considered
at all adequate.
LACK COSTUMES.
I have mentioned in previous letterc* the
prevalence this season of very rich materials
These become still more noticeable as the sea
son advances. The finest dresses ordered for
Newport for married ladies are of black lace,
not Spanish lace, but real thread woven for
the purpose and made over silk or satin
When black is used for a lining, a light grade
of what is known as cashmere Marguerite is
preferred—a Geneva silk which has more
firmness and is quite as durable as the liest
twillod silks, whilo tin, textuiv a u *l finish is
that of a genuine , faille , and the cost (in the
light grade*) scarcely more than a foulard.
These rich lace skirts are accompanied by
bodices of flowered velvet, the pattern large
and raised above the close gauze or satin
ground.
Colored laces are not much affected by ex
clusive elegantes, as they have a common ap
pearance, unless of very fine quality or artis
tically embroidered. Spanish laces have been
discarded because they have become too gen
eral, but there are some very levely co’ored
blondes, plain and embroidered, which are
used because they are really effective, and
cannot l>e duplicated. In gold and bronze
shades they are beautiful, ami are made np
over satin of the same tint, wdth bodice of the
satin trimmed with the lace. The skirt is
usually covered with it upon the front and
sides, the short apron forming a drapery upon
the hips. Tlie back of the skirt is plain ami
pleated; the bodice very deeply pointed back
and front; the sleeves, sometimes draped with
lace, are laid full on the tqp, but full sleeves
are not favored hy tfie conventionally fash
ionable in New York,
The least thing that breaks the rigid lines is
frowned upon, and if full sleeves make their
appearance in a dress ordered from Paris
they are sacrificed and replaced with tight
ones. Delicate tints are in high vogue, and
cream, satin, and blonde or gold embroidered
laces are used, tlie latter being almost too
conspicuous, for they lose their attraction
when employedao as to become monotonous
or upon unsuitable occasions. White satin
and lace at a garden party are lovely, but
upon the top of a coach they look out of place,
because they are exposed to the effects of
dust, sudden showers, or thq gray chilly
changes which often take place ino.UXClimate

’’FROU-FROU.”
“What is the charm,” asked a gentleman re
cently, “that assails one in an exclusively
fashionable circle? I confess iqyself not in
sensible to it, though I cannot analyze it, and
only know that it comes from clothes, uot
character. Yet J have seen individual wo
men well find even elegantly dressed without
experiencir.g any feeling whatever gave one
of discomfort.”
“ft is probably.'! was the replv, ‘(because
your fashionable friends are at homo in their
clothes. There is fascination iu the sight of
a tint that is pure and fine; there is exquisite
pleasure in the mere touch of a soft rich fabric
and when the air is filled with them, when
every movement brings contact, and even
glance a heaven of changing cq'qr, every
sense of perception in oqe’s nature runs to
the windows of tho soul to the procession
paiiS.”
There is mack, too. in being “at home” in
one’s clothes, in wearing and not soiling or
spoiling the most delfoate materials. Ouo of
the gqqd thinge among the exclusively fash
ionahlo is their exquisito personal neatness
their care of themselves so that thev shall lie
free from any spot and blemish, anil always
ready for the public show and parade. Fine
feathers demand fine birds, and usually suc
ceed in getting them; but the bird must cul
tivate herself and use sc'f,denial if she is to
stay fine. It is often said that fashionable
women have a hew dress for every occasion •
that they only wear it onc.e; and the
like. N'eyer was greater mistake. The
majority of really fashionable women
wear their clothes more nearly
“out” thau the same number of cooks anil
kitchen girls. They wear them incessantly,
they take them to pieces, they Kate tnem
over, or have them made qver, they take the
real lace or the rich brocade and have it
transferred to one costume after another
they put two old dresses together, they will
w ear delicate cream and pi c k and blue scores
of times withoqt showing Signs of soil, and
the reason is they aVe always clean amj live
in a Perfectly clean atmosphere, without
knowing how it is kept so, and with the fra
grance of fresh flowers constantly present to
impart a nameless charm to the lovely mate
rials. Working women are not at home in their
best clothes any more than working men,
though they usually contrive to look as if ffiey
were. The happiest moment to them is when
they tazo them off. The habit of Wearing
lovely things all-the time takes aw A y tbe feel

COUNTRY DRESSING.
j There is rather a curious contrast between
| the dressing of those who leave the eitv to go
into the country, and the visitors from the
| country who wish to show that they are not
behind the times in regard to fashion. The
distinction is chiefly one of color. Country
cousins are given to color of a somewhat
crude and startling kind, and accept the state
ments made by interested i*ersons in regard
to fashionable shades and tints and genuine
ness of materials. They are also apt to unite
poverty of fabric with showiness in the trim
thing, while the class of citv people who can
allordtogo into the country and stay there,
pursue quite an op)>osite ’policv, choosing
quiet, good materials without, perhaps, any
trimming at ail, and fail utterly to represcut
style as it is understood among their rural
neighbors.
Tlic polonaise costume seems to be the fa
vorite one for the country, barely belted
down over a skirt of a contrasting color. The
(•olonaise may be grey, blue or bronze wool,
or it may be of chintz or flowered satteen, but
it is always made with the apron front, round
or pointed; if the latter, crossed to one side,
and never open in front, which leaves the
skirt exposed and is only admissible
in the case of a coat and much trimmed skirt.
A great deal of embroidery is put upon the
dresses prepared for the country, especially
upon suits of pongee and lawn or cambric.
The embroidered trimming is not confined to
narrow ruffling. There is usually one piece
of flouncing wrought for the front of the
dress which is half a yard in depth, and this
does not form the short apron, but occupies
the intermediate space below it, and is often
supplemented by an equal depth of embroid
ery upon the hips, which is draped up in
paniers. White lawns are masses of what is
by courtesy called “needlework,” though if
the ornamentation was executed with the
needle one dress would cost a small fortune.
Not only are the flounces made of embroidery,
but the basque is cut from it in the piece, so
that the dress is entirely “covered” with it.
The most unbecoming toilets are the large
checkered and plaid suits, and there are many
of them. Once in a long while a checker
board dress and a woman who can wear it
may be seen, but it is so rarely that it would
be u blessing if the rigid designs were relega
ted to the stone age. where they belong.
The “wafer” large spotted designs are
favorites for polonaise dresses, the skirts be
ing made of the plain material in the dark
color. A dark-blue cotton or wool watered
with dnll-red has a dark-blue skirt trimmed
with two kilted flounces. The apron polo
naise is belted down with dark-red leather or
dull sale ten,and the straw hat and its feathers
are all of the same shade, which is not con
spicuous. Brown upon ecru makes a good
combination, and is accompanied by a brown
straw hat, the two shades combined in its
feathers.
Red or blue wafers upon cream grouuds are
used in cambric for the”holokee”dresßee copied
from the Sandwich Islands. They arc simply
low frocks gathefed into a square yoke of white
needlework and tucking and are made with
close or full sleeves of lawn, the latter slightly
gathered into a frill of needle work. They
hang loose from the yoke, are not belted in
and make very cool and pretty indoor morn
ing dresses.
THE ART ELEMENT IN PRESS.
One of the most useful purposes that deco
rative art lias served iu tlie household is in
suggesting to women of refinement, taste and
large means the place that it may occupy in
dress. Tbe worst thing about the ordinary
dress of women is the eternal procession of
rubbish that it involves—the gewgaws, the
worthless flippery, the waste of money in
flimsy pretences, and the massing together of
heaps of senseless stuff without object or pur
pose, without character or dignity. It ought
to be more of an object to dress a ls-autiful
woman than a house, and would be if ideas in
dress had permanent value. But if they nre
to be succeeded by something else tdffinorrow.
and this removed the next *!a\, the results
must be as worthless as they are'ephemeral.
Bui, already something has been done bv
the art workers with the needle, by such
women as Candace Wheeler to restore em
broidery to its lormer high place in the dec
orative world and to indicate its possibilities
in supplying anew element in dress superior
to anythin* which at present exists; and
which to a certain extent takes dress out of
the realm of fashion and elevates it into the
region of art,
A gentleman remarked recently in an art
room where many beautiful stuffs were ex
hibited, “I should like my wife to have a dress
of that exquisite silken tapestry, jf *he would
only keep it and wear it on occasions.”
“What occasions* All occasions)-” asked a
young girl, laughingly.
“No, but sometimes, when I wished it.”
“Just try her,” responded the querist “I
will guarantee her willingness.”
It lias oecome not common, hut at least- not
unusual for ladies to buy pieces of the beau
tiful stuffs manufactured for decora
tive and embroidery puritosos and
combine them with satins or
with the silken stuffs with a plain or shaded
ground. These fabrics are not known outside
a small circle. They are made ex
pressly as a foundation for art
needle trork and decorative designs. They
arc manufactured from original suggestions
nnd ideas furnished by the Louis C. Tiffany
Society of Decorative Art, and with the ex
ception of one thin fabric known as “bolting”
clotbj which is manufactured only by oao

The tapestries are very soft and rmh silk

The “bolting" cloth referred to is very in
teresting. It is a perfectly transparent silken
rabric, ft* due as Chambery gauze; as strone
as network of steel. It is called bolting cloth,
because it is used in the process of bolting
some kinds of fine flour, being the only thin
fabric made that will stand the strain. A set
of curtains have recently been designed, and
are not yet completed, for Denver, the Inte
rior ones embroidered on this misty silken
veiling, the outer ones on rose tapestry ex
quisitely shaded. The design for the interior
consists of open roses, dropped rose leaves and
natural foliage; and for the tapestry a Psyche
emerging from the cocoon, a drift of milk
weed blossoms springing after iier. anew
moon an full moon, the latter with water
lilies floating at the base. These curtains will
be truly “dream” curtains, and worthy of
their destination.
A thick diagonally corded silk is printed on
the warp and 1* reversible. It lias an exceed
ingly beautiful clouded effect.
But the rarest of all fahrics is one known as
• Gozanga”—too good for belief. It Is thick
stuff with a corrugated surface, which looks
as if it were hand wade, and is about a quar
ter of an inch through on tlie roughened edge
of solid silk. It is an imperial fabric, and one
associates it at once with a procession of Kings
awl the splendors of Lothair. In dregs, of
wine, with gold or cream, and in cold with
crimson or mahogany red it ia very rich; but
the white (tinted) is a marvel of beauty and
is not to be compared to any other fabric

It has bow been demonstrated that America
can produce art fabyte and art needlework
equal, if not superior, to any that can be
found elsewhere in the world, and this au
tumn the public will have an opportunity of
judging of the truth of this statement. A eir- i

traveling dresses.
Quite the prettiest and coolest of traveling
dresses are composed of spotted foulard
dots in two sizes—made with pleated skirt or
chemisette of plain foulard in the ground
color, and with a plain flchu trimmed with
lace. The hat is of straw the shade of the
silk, and is trimmed with cross folds or half
handkerchief of the dotted fabric.
Other very good designs are in plain wool,
dark gray, nnvv blue, or biscuit brown, made
with Jersey bodice, the jacket form outlined
with velvet, and velvet upon the apron front,
the bonnet of black or colored straw, trimmed
with velvet and fruit—cherries or wild black
berries.

up irom the band. These are put on over the.
dress and pinned down to it.
THE FASHIONABLE PARASOL
for the country Is of cotton in handsome
satine and chintz cretonne. They are not at
all cheap, but are considered stylish because
they are ugly and have huge twisted handles
in natural wood. Bright red parasols of large
size are so commonly seen upon the streets
that tins may be considered their last ap
pearance—a sort of farewell season for thorn.
There is an immense reduction of
creuiu parasols trimmed with Spanish
laeo, and thousands have been thrown
upon the market 111 con sequence of the threat*
ened retirement of this species of dentelle and
the favor bestowed upon its successor—“ Van

lace is too effective to Ik- easily displaced, and
there are combinations of Spanish patterns
with guipure that are beautiful and will re

Still there is no question but that guipure
is again coming to the front and will be highly
tasiouabie in tho autumn. The new patterns
are very striking—copies of old historical
figures and effects, particularly those intro

We Should Help One Another,
Mr. Norman Hunt, of No. 169 Chestnut
street, Springfield, Mass., writes April 10
1883, saying:
“Having the affliction caused by kidney
and liver diseases, and after enduring the
aches, pains, weakness and depression
incident thereto until body and soul were
nearly distracted, I sought for relief and
a cure from my trouble, and was told by
a, friend who had been cured by it
himself, that the best and only
sure cure was Hunt’s Remedy,
and upon his recommendation
I commenced taking it, and the first few
doses improved my condition in a very
marked manner, and a continuance of its
use has justified all that my friends claim
ed for it—that It was a sure and jierrna
nent cure lor all diseases of the kidneys
and liver. Several of my friends In
Springfield have used it with the most
gratifying results, and I feel it my duty
as well as a pleasure to me to recommend
Hunt’s Remedy in the highest possible
terms.”
