A smart and useful little suit is -of moleskin grey tweed of a firm, rather smooth make, with the merest sugges- tion of it. very faint dull purple stripe in it. It is faced with moleskin broadcloth, strapped with a heavy raised silk braid to match, ancl finished of with purple . satin buttons, inclosed in a „network of mole silk crochet till the purple hardly Serge and Silk Stitchery. Little morning frocks of coarse yet supple serge in "the dark colors" are extremely useful, and when trimmed with straapings of the same material embroidered in thick silk m'atching in .eolor (one shade only, end that an exact inatela or a tea-gowny effect will be Produced) are very nice, BALLROOMS OF MILLIONAIRES. Fortunes Spent to Fit Palaces of the Rich for Big Functions.. Twenty years ago a ballroom in a private house was a rarity; to -day there are over a hundred houses in New York so equipped. The restclen.cesr of the Marshall Robertses, the •Behnonts, the Spencers, the Scher- raerhorns, the Auchmytys and those about Washington and Madison Squares had ballrooms, but they total- ed:loss, says Gertrude Lynch in the New Broadway Magazine, than a doz- en, and were really picture galler- ies. The modern houses of the up- per Fifth avenue Set are nearly all 'equipped with ballrooms which are ballrooms and nothing more. The home of E. II. Harriman has a fern. ous Louis XV. ballroom; the Harry Payne Whitney house, the james A. Burden house, the new Phipps man- sion the Frick house, Sentor Clark's residences.the Stuyvesant Fish house, the john A. Dread hause, the Char - let, IL Alexander house, and nearly a hundred others have gorgeously decor - tiled apartments, where, during the 'Winter, hundreds of guests dance from about midnight well onto the first telt gray of dawn. . In fact, no modern millionaires' town house is complete without a suite of state apartments, ballroom, banquet and retiring xooms, which oc. oapy one floor of the house, all dee- trated at a eost of hundreds of thou- sands and opened only a few time% year. MACHINES TO BRING SLEEP. Revolving Mirrors, Metal Balls and Electric Batteries. 'I call it a sleep mill," said the manufacturer, as he led the way to his huge plant. Ile opened a doot into a long room *here two rows of girls were boxing instruments like electric fans, the wings of the fans being studded with small round mir- rors 'Many insomniacs,' ho said Jean !deep at the window of an express tem. The sight of the landscape rush. ing by therri invariably brings on a; refreshing nap. Well, this machine, with its whirl and glitter of revolvs • ing mirrors, acts on the eye and brain . in the same soothing manner,. and the insomniac whom a train ride helps is invariably helped by this 'Here,' he said, entering a. smaller room, 'we turn out slumber balls.' •A number' .of young men were rounding and polishing balla of bright metal, and he took one in his hand. 'Fixed high. above the head,' he said, 'so that it strains the eye to stare ot it, this ball frequently brings sleep to insomniac:1 of a molaneholic • type. In the next room we snake a small machine for clamping the arteries leading to the brain, It is easy to adjust and it very considerably dint- inishes the flow of blood to the brain centres.

"I made her take something aud go to rest. She is asleep now," "God bless her. And now, Letty, bid me goodnight, and let me rest; rest is my only medicine" With a deep alga Letty stooped down tied kissed ber sister Old once more withdrew from the room. And still she hise there in that dark room, with her hen& locked above, her head, listening to the sounds of the household preparing to retire to bed. By midnight the house was perfectly still. The family were all asleep. And she arose and threw on a white dreseing gown, and glided softly down the stirs, pausing to listen, She reached the hall of the first floor; all was quiet; no sound was heard but the subdued voices of the weteliers in the front chamber. She went to the door of the back chamber -cautiously opened it and enter- ed, Al last -at lot she was tilone svith her dead, There Was a wax taper left burning on the hearth. She took it up and ap- proached the bed, and threw ita light over the form extended there. She re- verently uncovered the face and gazed upon it -white -cold -motionless - ex- prerssionless-dead. Dead? Perhaps not. Of extreme despair is sometimes born a mad hope -mad form its birth, Perhaps, after all, he might not be dead -who knew? She bad beard of people given up for dead lying in a trance and recovering to live many years. Why might it not be so with him? What if after all he were only in a trance. She sat down her taper and again ap- proached the body. You would have thought her erazed had you seen her at work, with her pale still face, and her gleaming eyes and painfully attentive air, as she ran her hand in his bosom and placed it an his heart, and bent her ear to his closied lips. You might have thought her crazed, but she was not. Too well she knew when the trial was past that the cold, hard form was dead -dead 1 She dropped her head upon that bosom, that loved bosom that in life had so ten- - derly sheltered and. Cherished her -now unresponsive silent; senseless'. She sank upon the bed and clasped that cold form to her heart and wept. They were bless- ed tears; they loosened the tight tad burning cincture around her brain; they relieved while they exhausted her. , She could weep no more, but ehe crept eloser to that dear form -dearer, ob, yesI far dearer, though the soul had fled, than all the livnig world beside. Her daughter?' Yes sho had loved Maud with all a mother's tenderness. But long years before Maud had lived, ever since her own ehildhooa, all her thoughts and affections had centered upon this being; ber life had been identified with the life now fled, .and there was nothing in the wide world without so near, so dear, as this cola clay. She crept closer to that loved form. She laid her face and lips againet that dearest face. She drew that stiffening arm over her neck and resigned herself to rest. A feeling of exhaustion, c•f benign repose and content, was stealing over her seines. She was really cold, prostrated, and breathing fitfully; but she did not lcuow it, for a heavenly dream was brightening around her, the boundaries of the room seemed lost in light, and over her stood a shining form, in whose all -glorious countenance she recoguized the familiar face of her be- loved. Ile held out his arms to receive her; she raised herself to meet him, her soul filled with joy. Early in the morning the upholsterers and undertakers arrived at the Hall. Great preparations were on foot for the funeral. The illustrious statesman might not be laid in his 'last resting place with the Christian simplicity that attends the burial of other men. The officials com- menced operations, ad made all arrange- ments with quietness said celerity. The saloon was speedily prepared and decor- ated for the solemnity of lying in state. And:when all was ready they went in grave procession up the stairs, and pre- ceded by Mr. Loyal and Falconer, entered the room ef death. But there a vision met their eyes that rebuked all tho vain show, and touched the human hearts in their bosoms! For here, on the bed beside the dead, with. her face hidden on his cold bosom, lay his faithful wife -so still they thought he slept. Mr. Level approached in awe to wake her, but paused a moment to contemplate this sorrowful picture of love and death. She lay beside him with her arms around him, one arm under his shoulders, the other over his breast, her head upon his bosom with her face down- ward, and her rich black hair flowing, scarf -like, across his chest. Mr. Level stopped and gently and re- spectfully accosted her. She did not reply. Ho spoke again, inert earnestly and closer to her ear. She gave,no sign of 'consciousness. He then, with reverential tendertiese, took her hand, started, looked at her anxiously, raised her hastily, turning that beautiful, pale face up to the light. Augusta, was demi! Ilea oh, bow con- tent,. how "God -satisfied" hi death! The passing Writ had sot its seal upon the smooth,serene brow, aid the mainly- elosed lips. The expression of her face was a new revelation of the heavenly rest. Poor Mandl it seemed a cruel Stroke that deprived her of her wither that day. And she keelt and wept by that bed as if her heart moat break. Nor could she be got out of the tooin until Mr. Lovel took ber up in his arum and carried her, fainting, asvay. She grievea tie one who would not be comforted, almoet resenting the efforts ef her friends to soothe her, crying, distract - "1 know What you are going to Cay 'Death is the common lot -it is the -Cord's will -we muet submit.

Only leave me alone in peace and I will try to be quiet, and the IAord will help ase: After this, Letty sent everyone away from her room, and took the exclusive care of Maud upon hersele. ,And in an- other loll of her tempest of grief the poor girl said; "My tears will force their Ivey, dear Letty-but, ohl don't you know that I feel It 14 sortie's to wish her back to this' lonesome world? -too lonesome for her, now lie luta left it!

A a far betty, she essayed. no vain' commonplace words of consolation.

After all, the funeral was A Very quiet am Daniel Hunter and Augusta were interred together in the family burial ground at Howlet Heil. A monument of the simplest fonts of arehitecture-an obelisk of white marble -marks their grave. After the funeral the will of Daniel Hunter was opened and read. • It was found that he loft the whole of his real estate and. personal property to his Wife, Augusta, and constituted ber the sole executrix of the will. But the widow had survived her husband only a few hours, and had died intestate.' Conse- quently, Maud Hunter, who had, within a few days past, attained her majority, was now tbe solo heiress and actual mks - tress of Howlet Hall. Mr. and. Mrs. Level invitea their young relative to return with them and apend it few weeks, 1 or change of air and scene, .ist the parsonage. But n� peremisions could induce the orphan to leave the home rendered so sacred.. by the recent lose of her parents. Letts? Hunter, therefore remained to keep her company and to euperintend the rearrangement of the disordered houee, Falconer was summoned to Washing- ton to assist in the setting up of his statue. He took a reluctant leave of his betrothed, and, with the approbation of Mr. Level, promised to return as soon as his errand was concluded and spend the spring and summer at Howlet Hall. CHArTe1R XX.XIIL And now 1 bave to record. one of those unexpected, happy events that seem so much like blind accident; It was about a month after the death of Daniel Hurter and Augusta. The young spring was smiling over the earth, awakening vegetation. The skies were blue, the brazes soft, the fields and for- ests clothed with tender verdure the fruit trees all in blossom, the ga;dens fragrant with flowers, arid groves musi- cal. with birds. The sad heart of the or- phan felt the influence and trembled with the budding of its own new life and joy. Within the hall all was beentifel order and eomfort. One morning Lefty and Maud sat at .needle -work in the boudoir of the lat- ter. Falconer, who had returned the day previous, read to them front it vol- ume of Wordsworth. A servant entered with a card on a salver, which be handed to his mistress. Maud examined it with a puzzled look. "'Joseph Barton, Iowa City! I deal know him at all -I never heard of him before, I'm sure." But Lefty jumped from her sea, went red and pale, and sat down again. "'Joseph Barton?' Wlio did lie ask for, Thomas?" • inquired Maud, still per- plexing herself over the card. . "For you, ma'am -for Miss Hunter." "He must be some old friend of my father's. Thomas, return to the gentle- man, and say that I will be down in a few minutes.' "No'no, no, no 1 . It is I that he wants to see!" exclaimed Letty, nervously. • "You! He asked for Mies Hunter," said Maud. "That is my name also, though I think everybody forgets that I ever had any other than Letty." "Then this gentlaman is really an act quaintance of yours -you know him?" "Eh? Yes -no --I don't know --that is,. I used to know -tin old -an old ac- quaintance,as you say," said Letty. "I never did see her so discompose -di' said Mitud, as the former left the roam. Meanwhile Letty, with her, 'heart throbbing in her throat and depriving her of speech and breath, pausea upon the landing, and, leaning against the bal. ustrades, exhorted herself as follows: "Now, Letty }lento., you poor, miser- able, little forlornly, do, for heaven'ti sake, remember yourself, and don't turn a feel at your age -don't -it Wouldabe to ridicules*. You have led a sensible life, , and haven't ex- posed yourself up to thin day. Now take care.

And Imre enough, there, in the Middle of the room doled the merchant,. it stout men of forty-five, with thiek, tutt- ing blaea bair, end a square, deeply - bronzed ‘a., enlivened by a set Of very white teeth and n pair of derk, smiling eyes; not lookieg an if the years of eheence had gone very herd with hint; the last man in the world, froes his ton potence, to keep his heart And life sto- red to the memory of an Early WC Letty eared in formally, freeziogly, firmly. preparing to say: "Mr. Barton, I preeinne; prey be seated, elf."

So ber head and heart were at great variance, and she could have cried now with the discord they made. We are glad, for her sake, that true Joseph Barton had a healthful -and harmonious nature, and so far from reproaching, congratulated hint - Self upon the present event. "Add so you cannot imagine what brought me here, Lettyt" he said. "Well, .dearett Letty, I must tell you; I came expressly from Iowa for no other pur- pose than to see you, rind to have a talk with you."

"Did you ever hear • about the sailor and the parrot? Well, an old lady was returning from abroad with a parrot of which she was very fond. She intrusted the bird, with many admonitions, to a sailor for the voyage. Seasickness, or something, killed tae par. rot the third day out. The sailor, know- ing 'how upset the old lady would be, could not bring himself to toll her the sad tidings, but Asked a companion, fam- ous for his skill in such matters, to break the bad news to her very, very gently. The man assented. Approach- ing the old lady with a tragical face, the famous newsbreakor touched his cap and aaid: 'I'm afraid that 'ere bird o yourn ain't goin' to live long, ma'am.' `Oh, dear1' exclaimed the old lady in alarm. 'Whyr "Cause hes dead,' was the reply." "Yes -and I believed so until last month." ".And how did you find it out at lest?".
