To make and new a collar on a drew Is a neat Job, and If It Is n plain one should bo first cut out of st li m wiuan, and that basted on silesia or other lining, and then faced with silk or satin, whatever the outer material la made of. The collar l.s to be pressed with a piece of damp clotli laid between that and the Iron. Then cut a nick exactly In the middle of the collar and faaten this to the center of the back seam, and tack the two ends to the fronts and baste them; that on the left hi lo. haw ever, must reach only to the line of but buttons. - tons. buttons. The outer material, li:iin;; rtr.d wigan are all to lie taken in one ae.un with the wnlst of the dress and carefully basted first, and only sewn when sure it is rinht. The collar should then be raised and its position and the facing sewn down and the whole (Irmly pressed. The bone casings can now be sewn in. They are better made of bias silesia, but some use tapex and others the steel cased bones, but nothing Is so good or lasting as the regular whalebones, mid on the proper adjustment of these very much of the beauty of a waist depends. The casings should be just wide enough lo let tha bone slide in snugly, and they must be sewn only to the seams and no stitches visible from the outside. Set ipe t lie bones at each end with a piece of glass until the ends arc flexible, end thus they will not wear through the dress nor niakcan ugly hump. For very stout ladies the bones are doubled in the middle and shaved thin at the cnd.i, and if placed ill hot water a Bi.oit time they can easily be sewn ti, get her with a fine needle. It is usual to place a bone in each dart In the side acama and one in thu back. When the bones arc all in, the case, belt can be sewn in. This is to relieve the strain about the waibt, nnd is to be neatly diamond stitched in the middle of the back and on the under arm seams, ir.nl it is full:. lied by a hem nnd strong hook and eye. Then the final finish iiroui.il thu hot torn can be put on. This can be done in many ways, but the standard is to face it neat ly with the same material as the dress, ur silk or satin, li of self goods, the facing extends the six teenth of un iucli below the waist, giving the appearance of a piping. The silk lin ing requires that the outside be turned un under - der under so as not to show. In f .-icing the bot bottom - tom bottom great care should be taken to see that it Is trimmed exactly even, lor crooked lines there mark the amateur at once.

told that tho eminent politician earns bis country's gratitude. Wo have much to be thankful for, wo little ones, but we havo indeed cause to be truly thank thankful - ful thankful that we are not destined to earn such gratitudj 11s that. How many politi politicians, - cians, politicians, say, during the past century may be said to havo earned their country's gratitude? How many out of the grent multitude of politicians? Is there one? Is there one man of whom bis co'.intry co'.intry-mon - mon co'.intry-mon are willing to say, with Bn even neatly unanimous voice, "We owe that man our heartfelt gratitude; it is hi ; we give it him." As they sometimes cry in the arena of his former strnijb' : "Name! Name!" Doubtless every man Jack of those ex extinct - tinct extinct eminent politicians for extinct they are as the dodo, to nil practical in intents - tents intents and purposes has his followers as ho had them then. And equally truo it is that lie lias l i opponents, quite in the good old way. What sort of gratitude is it which consists in being set up by one set of men for another set of men to knock you down? Those eminent m ticians havo handed on their wrangles to our eminent politicians. Wo are wrangling just on tho samo old lines. If we look deeply into tho matter we shall begin to doubt if wo have advanced much farther than they did. We aro making the same old piling. -s in the samo old lucky bag. All the Year ltound.

To no man is the world so new and the future so fresh as to him who has spent the early years of his manhood l.i striving to understand the deeper prob problems - lems problems of science nnd life and who has nnu'.o some headway toward compre comprehending - hending comprehending them. To him the commonest tilings are rare and wonderful, both in themselves and as parts of a beautiful and intelligent whole. Such a thing us stalcuesa in lifo and its duties he cannot understand. Knowledge is always opening out Le Le-fore - fore Le-fore him in wider expanses and more commanding height:. The pleasure i.f growing knowledge und increasing power makes every year of his lifo hap happier - pier happier and more hopeful than thu lust. Vick'a Magaziue.

Tennyson's Interview with the Qnern. ' It was in the latter part of the year after thedeathof the prince consort, thai I was conversing with Mr. Tenny Tennyson - son Tennyson on tlio sudden death of X much val val-ncd - ncd val-ncd common friend and tlio loneliness of his widow, when Tennyson, who bad la-en stalking up nnd down the end oí thu bow windowed drawing room with his usual long strides, suddenly broke in with, "I taw another widow three days a;o." "Indeed," I replied, "and who was that':" "The tjueen," bo replied In his deepest tone. "UUo tent for 1110 to Osborne." I said that I up;ini"l hot majesty wished to thank hiiu for his nolilo trib'.-.to t; tho memory of tho ptini-3 consort, and with perhaps par par-ilottr.Mo - ilottr.Mo par-ilottr.Mo curiosity went on to ti.slc what tho ip'.een bad said to him. -l can't re remember," - member," remember," bo aiiHweri'd; "1 lo.it. my bead, 1 only reineiuber wu:t I n;;H to the Uncen bi;í fool that 1 was!"

It is bi tter to baste (!.-,t., then stitch tlio bottom and turn the facing up, busting it again, and then press it lie lie-fore - fore lie-fore the inside is finally felled down. That insures a perfect edge if cut straight. At the prenent moment sleeve.-) vary greatly in simpe nnd size, but they are nil very easy to manage If the few fundamen fundamental - tal fundamental rules are followed. A diagram here herewith - with herewith shows the main Idea, which is that the under part of the sleeve is narrower than the top, and that the top is rounded, while the nnder side is hollowed at thu top. The measure should be taken for sleeves from one inch back of the shouliUr scam and carried down over the bent elbow t ) the wrist. The sleeve to bo fa.- lilun.ilile now should be of the lego' mutton, plain bishop, with deep ctilT, ami the balloon in which the upper part is pulled and the tore arm part quite plain. The last requires a plain, medium snug foundation for the support of the balloon tops. The leg o' mutton can be mado In nuiuy varieties, the one most often seen having the upper part wrinkled. The sleeves now require a large quantity of material, usually three yards. The sleeve is sewn up, the seams whipped and the wribta finished with a neat piping, or a cuff of velvet made over wigan, and then they are ready to lie sewn In. 1 rom the two dota they should be gnthen-d until just a fit for the arm size. The under arm maul is to lie pinned to the front w ain of the f rout tide (ore, and the back arm seam will come naturally to an Inch lielow the Bhoulder seam In the hack. Haste the lower part of the seam to the waist, and then tu ruing the sleeve toward you baste forward from the back arm seam, keeping
