Of that number, one half are total abstainers. The temperance movement is steadily gaining ground in Den. mark. It is reported that there are now about 85,000 total abstainers in that country. It is said that the Queen's father, the Duke of Kent, was an early pro. hibitionist, having in 1802, while. in command at Gibraltar, given orders that all wine licenses should be withdrawn. It is calculated that the drink bill of Montreal reaches $2,000,000 in a year. This is equal to $20 per load. It is safe to say that a large portion of the money spent on liquor comae from poor men, whose famil- ies can least afford the tax. The new high license law of Pennsylvania is, it seems, a real re- strictive measure. Its previsions are so stringent that the brewers have called for a State convention, asserting that the traffic has been placed in ''such condition that we must fight or die." Advocates of prohibition say that it certainly does diminish crime, and point with exultation to the fact that for the first time in the history of Iowa the penitentiary at Fort Madison is without a sufficient number of convicts to enable the authorities to fill contracts made upon the basis of the usual supply. When Wm. H. Vanderbilt was preeidsnt of the New York Central, a num rented the eating•bouee at Utica at $6,000 s year. A short time after Vanderbilt came along and asked: "You sell liquors ?" "Yee, sir." "Well, if you will not sell them von shall have the place at $1,000 a year." "Agreed." He dad not want spirits sold where the men who had charge of the trains could step in for drinks. The United States Brewers' As. sedation ,met at Baltimore on the 25th ult., to lay plans for future oampaigns. It was very evident that many members had become ,weary of the constant drain upon their pockets from all sides, and the N. Y,, Voice correspondent thinks there will be a deficiency next year. The convention spent two days in carrying out the programme pre- pared for them by the hired brains that do their thinking, and put in the two evenings drinking beer. At the close, $5,000 was apportion- ed to defeat prohibition in Miohi• gan, $8,000 more :to fight .the Amendments in Texas and Tennes• Bee. $9,000 was put to the credit of the Publication Oommittee, and a liberal subscription given to Brew- er Walruff, who has suffered some vicissitudes in evading the law in Kansas. Fashion. Notes. Etched silver girdles are rather a novelty. The crest shaped bonnet has re- appeared. "Peach colored gold" is a new notion in jewelry. The monsquetaire glove has out- lived its popularity. All rose shades not vivid are call- ed Charles X pink. The real, genuine, old•time peva has come back into favor. Parasols are more startling in shape, color and price than ever be- fore. 0armelite in gray or fawn color is a favorite for travelling wear. Braiding is still immensely pope, lar in rich dress as well as utility toilets. Epaulets are made of chains of Pearl end gold hanging in cream - colored net. Large poke bonnets for wear on afternoon drives are picturesque and shade the face. Fine cheeks are fashionable, but very fine ones only. Checker -board patterns are not worn. The scarfs with hoods, which were so popular some years ago, are stealing into favor again. Sateens seem to be rather out of favor this year, having been super. Ceded by batistes and percales. Never were short jackets for street use so simple, so absolutely peefect in fit and so universally worn. Dresses for little girls are es var- ied as those for ladies. Small jack• ate are nitwit favored. They have light fitting backs and they open in front over a vest or gnimpe, Tamisei is restored to us again. It is now as smooth and even as eseentetuicesgsaweianesiesestoseseztrattow=raztenezzet= pongee u1' alpaca, wi lentt tho ob. jecttonnble gleesiuras of the l:usar. Its enduring qualities are wouolor I fins. "Whip fens" aro being used by fashionable Parisians during the present raeing season. The Fane are mounted on bandies exactly re sembling a whip, and are painted with raciug subjects. Parisian flutver• makers ern sold to have designed plastrons, panel° and shirt fronts made entirely of flowers mounted on an imitation treniswork of twigs, tt long garland of blooms beiug wound around the bodice en suite. The grayish blue called '• ,Viuter Sky," which is popular )u -t now, le an old friend returned. It blends beautifully with primrose atld can• try, and it is just possible that its restoration is attributable to the rn- thusiustn felt for the pale gold of the poetic evening bloeoom. The frightful atiff•necki'd dress• ing, which holds the !,rad in 0 pus• ition which can neither be graceful nor comfortable , the tightly litted tailor tnuu10 suits, which necessitate an arrangement of underclothing too light from the N. )y beginning ; the bustle, which in most caws is 0 horrible travesty on 'he herniae form divine. Furniture painted white, figured and eligbtly lined with gold, is es- pecially admired for boudoirs, and for the hest chambers of young le dies. Tbo chairs are uploletered In pretty weeps or eet0nne to match the bed -spreads and window draperies, and will sometimes have flag or ratan Feats unit though lash • ionable are iuexpeneive. Long undressed kid gloves aro worn in a very (lark shade. Putty color is worn in kid The favorite color in Suede aro tan in its differ. ent hues, and brown. The fashion 'of shell pins has brought into use a small "giraffe" comb a diminutive of the ]urge Spauisb comb. Many jet, steel 0134 shell pine are worn in the hair. They aro placed here and there in it knot on top of the head. The colored embroideries in browne, in brown and yellow, in blue and red, iu grey and olive, or in Turkish or Indian blending,. of color, are becominga. great feature of summer tires,. decorations. One way of obtaining short pieces in very handsome patterns is to bay the beautifully embroidered towels, dig the embroidered stripes or bord• ars off, sew the fringed and open worked ends to the plain linen and use the colored work for panelling or bodice trimming.
