A Flesh-Devouring Plant.
Mr. Dunstan, a naturalist, who has rc
IT uilv returned from Central America,
where he. spent nearly two years iu the
study of the flora and fauna of the coun
try, relub tho finding of a singular
growth in one of the swamps which sur¬
rounds the great lake of Nicaragua.
He was engaged in hunting for botan¬
ical and entomological specimens, when
he heard his dog cry out, as if in agony,
from a distance. Running to the spot
from which the animal’* cries came, Sir.
Du i tun found him enveloped in a perfect
network of wlmt seemed to be a line rope¬
like tissue of roots or fibers.
l'lie plant or vine seemed composed cn
t in ly of bare interlacing stems, resem¬
bling, more than anything else, the
I (ranches of the weeping-willow denuded
• >t all foliage, but of a dark, nearly black
hue, and covered with a thick viscid gum
that exudes from tho pores.
Drawing hi* knife, Mr, Dunstan en¬
deavored to cut the animal free, but it

cular filler. To his horror and amaze¬
ment the naturalist then saw that thed ig's
body was blood-stained, while his 3
appeared to have been actually suokei ,
or puckered iu spots, and the animal
s iggered ns if from exhaustion.
In cutting the vine the twigs curled

Brides’ going-away dresses made by
fashionable tailors are of soft gray or
am!jer ‘ brovVn woolen in plaids, with
straight Empire skirts, double-breasted
COat baSc l ue and fnU sleeves of velvet.
There are also very pretty plaided wools

BEAUTY of women.
Quite the ugliest face I ever saw (ob
serves Whittier) was that of a woman
whom the world called be&tiful. Through
its “silver veil the evils and ungentle
passions looked out, hideous and hate
ful On the ether hand, there are faces
which the multitude at first glance pro
nounce homely, unattractive and such as
“nature fashions by the gross,' which i
always recognize with a warm heart
thrill. Not ior the world would I have
one feature changed; they please me as
they are; they are hallowed by kind
memories and beautiful through associa
tions.
A young lady PERSONATES xnfluenza.
At the last faucy dress ball attended
by the nobility of St. Petersburg, the
palm was awarded to a young lady at¬
tired to represent the influenza, She
was dressed in Oriental fashion, and wore
on her head a tall cap inscribed with the
Dames of the principal doctors who have
studied the disease. The map of Europe
was depicted on her skirts, and a gigan¬
tic spider occupied a prominent position
on the shores of the Baltic. The ladies
fun was covered with the names of those
chemists who welcomed the arrival of the
fatal scourge^ During the evening she
distributed leaflets with poems extolling
its virtues; fever, pains in the head, ach¬
ing of the bones, etc.
WHY WOMEN WEAR BLACK.
That, devottd disciple of Delsarte, Hen¬
rietta Bussell, says that the only ’woman
who can wear black to advantage is the
one who has black eyes, black hair, and
is fat. Most girls of sixteen could wear
black, but there is always a color that
each person looks better in than in black,
wdiich she thinks should never be worn
in clothes, not even in mourning by
Christians. “Why, then, if black is so
bad, is it so generally worn?” asks a
writer in the New Y'ork Commercial Ad¬
vertiser. “Lying north of Europe on an
island is a city that pretty well rules the
world; that city is under a continual
fog; now choose a color to wear on a
foggy, dark day, something that won’t
‘show dirt,’ and you have found the
reason why sunny India and sunny
Ameriea wear black—because they wish
to be ‘so English. ’ The wearing of this
lisinal hue belongs to modern times.
Who ever heard of a Greek or an Orien
tai or an Egyptian m black?”
NEVER, WILL MARRY.
An intense young woman member of
the Art Students’ League is the founder
of a new order called the Order of the
Zinnia, says the Now tork Evening bun.
o ie exact, the older lt&elf is hardly so
new, and certainly not so remarkable as
i$ voluntary membership therein. It is
known as the Order of the Zinnia because
that unlovely flower is believed to be the
emblem of perpetual maidenhood, and
the students who wear the zinnia are
known thereby to have put themselves
beyond the persuasion of all but art. Au
aw ful oath is required of each member,
She binds herself “never, never, never to
marry, but to give her whole life, her
time, her strength, her enthusiasm, her
heart and her soul to her art and to noth
ing else besides.” And then upon the
heels of this solemn dedication comes
tms delicious clause: , “But if I ever do I
promise to give a dinner to the other
members of the Order ot the Zinnia ^ tnat
shall cost not less than 6100 as a penalty
for , , having , broken , my vow to . art , and j to

fashion’s behest in the long ago.
In a work giving account of literary
and fashionable circles in the reign O' of
Augustus Csesar, mention is made of the
attire of a young J maiden of the period, 1 ’ a
person of rank, representing the wealth
and style of the age.
“A snow-Yfkite tunica enveloped her
person, over which was gracefully
thrown the ample folds of an amethyst
colored palla, an article of costume worn
as a robe of state by women of distinc
tiou.” It presented an appearance of
skilfully arranged drapery, sometimes
with the addition of a girdle, or fast
eued at the shoulders with gemmed
clasps ora jeweled brooch; the maiden's
hair, exquisitely arranged, was secured
with a goid pin in form of a winged Cu
pid. while a chaplet of roses emphasized
the effect.
A brilliant necklace curiously twisted
encircled the snowy throat, and from it
depended a string of pearls; serpent
shaped golden bracelets, in whose eyes
glittered fiery rubies, were the ornamen¬
tation of fair, plump arms.— Harper's Ba

i The greater uuuu er of the dress skirts
now making are fashioned without ft
steel, though one small one may be used
* nd the wearer not become an oddity.
Elastic bands, placed ten and twenty in
cbes below the belt, are sewed in the
side seam* and hold the fullness in the
centre back. No matter how plainly the
front of the skirt may hang, the lining is
now two and three-quarter yards in
width. Now that the making of summer
dresses is on hand, I want again to re
mind the many readers of the La/lies' (

on the front of the bodice, they are put

Spring is the hay making time for the

three materials are tastefully combined iu
new gowns, as well as in remodeled ones,
The full sleeves should match the front
if possible, unless they are of velvet to
match the accessories or jacket fronts,
Two distinct styles of full sleeves are
worn. One has a very close fitting wrist
and full upper portion gathered into the
arm scie, so as to stand above the shoul
der. The other is full at the wrist,
gathering to a narrow cutf, and also
gathered at the shoulder.
FASHION NOTES.
A new dress matorial introduced This
season is the Japanese cotton crepe.
Toques and capotes are as small and
hats as large a3 those worn last season.
The straight-brimmed Derby bat is not
generally becoming, and may be confined
to the few.
Dress bonnets look to be about big
enough for a doll, but too small for a
woman's head.
The handsome"' jet trimmings are of
very fine-cut beads, set solidly in ara¬
besque and branch patterns.
There is a distinction with a difference
between the tea gown and the negligee, a
fact some women have yet to learn.
The straight skirts of little girls 5
dresses are very full this season, and are
simply finished by a four-inch hem.
Black velvet sleeves are introduced
into coats of tan color, terra cotta and
dove gray, making a decided contrast.
Jet garnitures are again very fashion¬
able, and are employed upon all colors
and qualities of silk and wool fabrics.
The new terra-cotta shades are known
as Smyrna, Cadi, Parthenon and Mongol,
from light to dark, in the order given.
Beautiful scarfs in Mauresque lace,
three yards long and a half a yard wide,
can be utilized in various ways for neck
■wear.
Gold laces and passementeries in the
popular-Vandyke patterns are much used
upon dressy gowns, either appliqued or
inserted.
Chinese silks in stripes are to have a
great run this summer. They are a re
vival of a fashion of full quarter of a cen
tury ago. usld
Venetian cloth is for spring
f | resseg) made with a princesse coat back,
whose skirts are continued until they
roach the dress hem.
Black cord passementeries are inter¬
woven with gold, silver, bronze and al¬
most every color, and also with Scotch
plaid effects in tinsel.
Before the days of so much sumptuous
lingeries, w’ere women^ less happier than
they are now? It ought to be a question
for the women’s clubs.
A French toque made of sage greeu
velvet, the front adorned with an agriettc
of fine green foliage, is a useful and be¬
coming hat for spring,
Wide brims and flat crowns still ap

Monochromatic is the most fashionably
descriptive adjective in use. It is ap
plied to a dinner table, concert toilet, an
interior and a wedding. To be mono
chromatic, to have a spread en mono
chrome, is the perfection of taste.
a novelty is the gran de beaute, or
beauty-spot net, with pastilles very far
apart, which give the effect of the beauty
spots worn by our great grandmothers.
Plain, fine mesh nets, with borders of
small medal Vandykes, are also new.
Gold braid is put on gray dresses and
