Tsr.w York,November 0. — [Special Corro-
Kjiiiiideiiri1] "(Hi, ilear; life isn't worth
living!"
"What's tlie mutter?"
"Why. 1 feel like a monkey dressed for n
ball in these ;nv/ul elotlies."
'I'lit-re whh^iio apparent fault, to be found
with the clothes or with their wearer. The
Kitrment:: were the ordinary components of
tasteful afternoon attire, and tliey hung
with more than ordinary gracecm a tall and
finely developed specimen of healthy young
womanhood. She wasii brunette of seven
oreight and twenty—-head splendidly poised
on her shoulders, throat full and round,
chest capable of deep respirations, not a
particle of useless flesh, not a flabby muscle
to mar the contour of her vigorous figure.
>She was a Y.v s.ir graduate who married a
ranchman in the west some four or five
years ago. and who was spending a few
weeks in t ho city on a visit to friends,
"I've made my own bread, sometimes first
carrying the wheat to the mill. I've built
my own flics, sometimes first cuttii.g the
wood 1 was to burn. I've ridden my own
pony, oftener t han not bareback, when baby
strayed from the door and 1 had to scour tho
brush before he had wandered too faraway.
I've fetch.'! water mid built fence and
laughed at work, becauso 1 made my own
gowns. I cast oft long skirts for all work-
day occasions as soon as I got outside the
towns. I've worn no drapery below my
knees f>,r so iong a time that I feel awkward
and as helpless as a baby trying to sit about
In parlors in the garb of civilization. X
tried to ride in the park this morning, but
I turned coward and gave it up, one's seat
is so uncomfortable on a side saddle. I
might learn to make holiday in long skirts
again, but 1 could not keep house, not if we
all went without our dinners."
Hers was an extreme statement of the
discomforts of active work in ordinary
feminine attire. In point of fact, varieties
of dress suitable for t he street, the drawing-
room, the dinner table, the theater, the ball-
room are dwelt upon day after day, week
after week, but even tho dress reformer sel-
dom makes a
roiNT OF KITCJIEX ATTIRE,
the dress in which a large majority of wom-
en spend a large proportion of their
strength and time, the dress on which more
than on gala prettincsscs a woman's health
mid well being depends.
On questions of dress one goes naturally
to the fashion oracle, the doctor, th« dress
reformers and the people who wear tho
gowns. The doctor, as it chanced, caaie
first. She was Dr. Lucy M. Hall, late resi-
dent physician at Vassal- college, well
known as a writer on health topics concern-
ing women, and received, together with
Miss Clara Barton, as a notable representa-
tive of American womanhood at the Ger-
man court no long time ago.
"What's the matter with housekeeping?"
"Oh! that's all right; what's the matter
with the housekeepers?"
])r. Hall keeps house in Brooklyn. She
looked up from a heap of manuscript at the
abrupt question.
"Why do the people whom one knows,
people who prefer the privacy and home
feeling of a house to themselves, move from
that, house into a flat or a suite of rooms iu
a big apartment building, and then from
the tint into a boarding-house or family
hotel? They say first that they can't go
over the stairs of tho dwelling house as
commonly built, and then having achieved
the apartment house elevator, that they
can't keep house nt all without mora maids
than tliey can afford to pay. What's the
trouble with housekeeping? Find n woman
who keeps one servant, or a woman who
keeps no servant at ail, and you find a
woman, very commonly, who spends a
good share of her life tired and no small
part of it ill."
"Perhaps it's a case of gymnastic oxer-
fise," said Dr. Hall, "without gymnasium
dress. You wouldn't think of putting a
class of girls through tiie course in athletics
that everybody recommends far them now-
aday) without, dressing them with especial
reference to the performance. But the
broom—this is a quotation, mind you—is a
whole gymnasium in itself. Did you ever
hear of any one who dressed especially for
the broom ?"
"Ho v would you dress a woman for the
broom and the stairs?"
"Why wouldn't some modification of the
regular gymnasium suit be a good fashion
if it ever came in vogue for a housework re-
galia? A majority of women, at least of
those who take entire charge of their house-
holds, i n! siniiily supervising tho work of
servants, could work to better advantage in
a blouse or loose waist and skirt that did
not reach below the top of the l oot, or not
jnore than half way from the knee to the
ground Of course, such a dress should be
of light weight, and
SHOULD II AM, Ft'.OM THE SHOt'I.DEIi
entirely. Summer and winter varieties i?i
print and wool could be arranged easily.
Make a science of housework, go into it as
if you weren't ashamed of doing it, treat it
as what it is, athletic exercise, and plan,
overy woman for her own needs, a dress as
carefully devised for it as tennis or skating
gowns.are thought out for their purposes."
Miss Mary I,. Booth of Harper's Bazar,
v/ho is a model editor, and whose sensible
Words on so many other subjects than dress
are read weekly throughout the land, was
found in her office iu the big and democratic
Ifarper's building. She thought that the
question of fit dress for household work
was settling itself, as dress for all occasions
evolves more and more into the likeness of
Vhat it ought to be.
"Compare the attire of women now with
What it was fifty years ago and see if we are
pot solving our problems satisfactorily. It
jis no longer the fashion to wear a trailing
gown except for formal evening occasions.
2Vt a;i afternoon reception one would feel
putre lu one. It is no longer the fashion to
}ace tightly. Of course there are plenty of
Women wlio prefer what they call a trim
Waist, but fashion does not require them to
make themselves ativ smaller than nature
Meant them to be. It is no longer the fash-
ion to wear high heels. The. shoe stores are
lull of thick soles and broad common sense
heels. Of course a sensible woman won't
try to do heavy work with bones in her
bodice nor burden her hands when running
up and down stairs with holding up long
skirts. But there is no occasion and no oc-
cupation for which a woman can not dress
herself comfortably and healthfully without
Jet or hind ance from fashion. 1'ashion
goes not nowadays bar any woman from
firessing as she pleases."
It is something of a treat to question Mrs.
Annie Jenness Miller on any dress subject,
beoau.-,o she illustrates all her pet hobbies so
•Alarmingly. There are not many women
who would not consent to throw away their
Corsets and fling their non-reformed ward-
robes to the winds for the sake of looking
half as beautiful, half as young and grace-
ful, one halt'ax lithe and strong limbed as
llr. Miller. The bete noir of the improved
dress system is the petticoat.
''Of course a woman, whose morning
duties call her up stairs and down stairs
and into my lady's chamber would not run
half the risk of taking cold when she sits
down after a hot hour over the kitchen
range or a vigorous tussle with a carpet it
her limbs were clothed equably throughout
with union suit and Turkish leglcttes. The
leglettes or divided petticoat don't cumber
a woman's
movements about IIbr work
and don't wind themselves about the anklo
in going over tho stairs. And why need
they be so very formidable? Under the
dress nobody knows you liave them on, and
for tho rest they give you sj much more
freedom that you are double the woman you
wore before."
"Have you any especial housekeeper's
gowns?"
"Certainly," and Mrs. Miller brought out
a pretty thing in cashmcre for a lady to
wear about her morning tasks. The bodice
had a full front gathered into a yoke, and
the skirt was quite short in front, finished
with a flounco at the bottom. The back of
I lie gown was of printed cashmcre falling in
a demi-trflin. It was a very graceful and
very easy gown, especially designed to give
full freedom to the hand in goiug up and
down stairs.
Miss Maria Parloa, the apostle of cook-
ery and the cooking schools, gets through a
vast amount of manual labor in attire not
radically ditrerent from that femininity in
general, and always looks as if she found
life most excellently well worth while. Miss
Parloa indeed is a marvel. To see her beat-
ing eggs or stirring up cake is to be imbued
with profound respect for her muscular
vigor, but it is done so daintily withal that
not a speck ever falls on her fleckless gown.
It is a print gown invariably, fitting tho
waist trimly, but not biased so closely as to
offer the least restraint to the free move-
ment of the. arms. Commonly it is eut in
one piece, the skirt being gathered on at the
waist line and falling straight without
drapery, though a ruffle at the bottom is
not disallowed. There is lace at the neck
| and lace at the wrists, and the lace remains
snowy throughout the most complicated
dinner getting maneuvers. It is a gown
which weighs very little and is not in the
least in the way.
Elisabeth Stuart Phelps, or to give her
her new name, Mrs. Phelps-Ward, is not
often counted among the dress reformers,
and yet she was one of the earliest advo-
cates of healthful attire for women, and has
dressed for years according to her convic-
tions. Her bridal trousseau was no excep-
tion to the rule, but was prepared nt a
dress reform establishment in Boston, and
included several very carefully devised
house gowns.
i.ady Harberton's dress reform society in
London gives especial attention to house-
keepers' wear, and I saw during my visit to
it tliis summer a number of klteheu dresses
cut in short, simple fashions, invariably of
wool—the London branch is devoted to wool
—and usually made of some material re-
sembling nun's veiling, said to wash as easi-
ly us cotton. They aregraceful dresses, and
very practical.
The dress of the teache-s iu the cookery
centers in London is very like that advo-
cated by Lady llarberton. They wear wash-
able wools, short and without drapery.
Ella, Wheeler Wilcox has devoted herself
within the past year to learning to cook,
but a morning caller sees small smouch of
the range. She wears whito almost inva-
riably indoors, an airy white, light and
pretty, if not adapted to rough tasks.

CAPTAIN SNOW'S BRUTALITY.
A Terrible Tale of Cruelty at Sea—The Cap-
tain 8ued.
Sixteen sailors of the ship Ilecla, natives
of the United States, England, Scotland
and France, which vessel arrived here load-
ed with wheat for Great Britaiu, entered
suit in the district court against Captain
Snow of that vessel for cruelty. They .ap-
peared in person and presented a statement
as follows:
The American ship Heci.'\ Captain Snow,
started for Cardiff, Wales, with a crew of
sixteen men. After she was out but a short
time the captain began feeding his men on
rotten meat and potatoes which were not fit
to eat, and both Captain Snow and his ma te
shamefully abused the sailors. While near
Cape Horn Captain Snow attacked the car-
penter, s!liking him with some heavy in-
strument and breaking his jaw and knock-
ing out many teeth. A few days later he
nearly killed one of the men, and all of the
members of the crew were beaten in a most
crul manner. When debilitated by the poor
food given them they were unable to work,
and all the sailors were put into the hold
and tied in such a manner that they could
neither stand nor sit nor lie down, and in
that position they were kept for forty-eight
hours, when they were released.
One of the men whom the captain deemed
refractory was tied to a stanchion for four
days without food, but during this time his
scant rations were placed within sight but
out of his reach. When the Hcola reached
Acapulco the men were weak from ill-treat-
ment and insufficient food. The brutal
captain, with the aid of Mexican troops,
cast them into a dungeon anil kept them
confined until the vessel was ready to sail.
The men appealed to the United States con-
sul at Acapulco, but were unable to obtain
any assistance from that quarter, they
being told by him that he could do nothing,
and that they had better "rough it out." A
statement from the sailors was presented
to the consul similar to the complaint made
here. The case will come up in the court at
10 o'clock on Monday morning, and will no
I doubt prove interesting. The captain, with-
out any excuse whatever, refuses to pay the
money due the sailors for their services on
tho trip from Cardiff. About $8000 in all is
I due tho various members of the crew.

IN A BEAR'S CLUTCHES.
Lively Tussle of a Catskiil Nliltl'otl With a
Shaggy Urate.
Allabcn, formerly known as Fox Hollow,
is a little hamlet not far from Big Indian,
in the Catskiil mountains. It is a noted
huting ground, but never before was so ex-
traordinary and unsatisfactory a hunt par-
ticipated in either in Allaben or any other
section of country hereabout as that of last
Saturday.
Jacob Johnson of Marbletown and Charles
ICbistand George Heliekerof Forest Valley
started out to hunt partridges. Johnson's
dog, which was on ahead of the men, began
to bark violently and run backward and for-
ward. Feeling assured that some, kind of
game had been started, the three men hur-
ried along and were just in time to see the
faithful canine locked in abigsliaggy bear's
embrace.
Tha ugly brute had literally crushed the
breath out of the dog, besides scratching
ami biting it in many places, from which
the blood flowed in streams. George Hel-
icker was so incensed at theconditlon of the
dying dog that, without a thought of per-
sonal danger, ho struck the shaggy animal
a smart blow on the head with the butt end
of his gun, which broke the stock complete-
ly off, leaving the hunter without any
means of defending himself. The bear at-
tacked Helioker--viciously, and it would
have gone hard with him if Ebist and John-
son had not diverted bruin's attention by a
few well aimed blows from heavy sticks
that the hunters found lying near by.
The bear weakened and started for a bit of
woods near by. Johnson followed and
headed it off, at the same time striking it a
blow across the eyes, which so enraged the
big brute that it turned quickly, and, catch-
ing Johnson iu its paws, gave him such a
shaking up that he is likely to remember
for many a long day.
Neither of the other men dared shoot for
| fear of wounding Johnson, but they struck
j at and worried the bear till it dropped its
victim, and then both men fired simul-
taneously. With a howl of pain the bear
turned tail and made for the woods, leaving
a track of blood behind.
All three of the men were badly scratched
! and torn and pieces of their clothing were
ruined.
The fact that the bear escaped being cap-
tured alive or that its carcass was not avail-
able provoked considerable laughter and
derision at first, but when the body of tha
dog was "brought in" and the dilapidated
condition of tho three hunters was fully
realized, a full mead of sympathy and com-
panion was poured out generously nnd a
fully equipped hunting party was tit puce
started off on bruin's trail.
Dresden China.
Whether a man is poor or broken-hearted,
or only an overworked millionaire r«ady
for suicide and a daep grave, he always
likes to read about pretty girls and Europe.
Half a dozen belles from the gay city of
Hartford, Conn., have been raising Cain in
Germany and having a high old time gen-
erally, and then writing all about, it for
their "home paper," the Hartford Times.
While in Dresden thoy went to see '"em"
make the celebrated Dresden china, which
is more expensive than a ballet girl. Hero
is what they say in their last letter to the
Connecticut editor:
We "did" tho factory exhaustively, seeing
all the processes, from beginning to end,
and it was really very interesting. They
took us first to the furnace room, showing
us tho inside of the great oven, built of
vitrified brick having a curious odor, and
pointing out the different kilns where the
neat rises sometimes as high as 1800 degrees
Reaumur, or about 4000 degrees Fahrenheit.
There are seven of these kilns, nnd they are
used alternately, to allow them to cool off.
Even then they have to be frequently re-
paired—and to repair the entire furnace
costs about IK000 of our money.
From the furnace room wo went up stairs
to see the clay, the modeling and the paint-
ing. The clay lay in a big lump on a zinc
table. is made of kaolin, found near
Meissen, nnd feldspar from Norway, and is
about the consistency of putty. One of the
party pinched off a piece, but the guide
took it away with trie information that
none was permitted to go out of the fac-
tory. A workman took off a piece, put iton
a slab and rolled it out into a fiat disc with
a rolling pin, exactly like a woman rolling
out piecrust. Then it went on to the pot-
ter's wheel—and this was fascinating to
watch, for it wont through all sorts of
changes under the workman's hands, rising
up into a tall vase, settling down nnd
rounding out into a bowl, flattening again
into a plate, till it was finally taken off in
the form of a gracoful fruitdis
its easy, rapid changes of fori
understand the old simile of
igracotul lrultcmh. watching
id ohanges of form, ono could
'clay in the
hands of tho potter." Then it went through
any number of different processes—the pat-
tern pressed on the sides with a mould,
then chiselled out into open basket work with
delicate little instruments, finished up care-
fully by another hand, and the raised flow-
ers prepared and fastened to it, till it final-
ly went to tho painter. Before painting it
is dipped into a glaze of feldspar and quartz
in solution, and after tho painting it is
" g ontirelj
dipped ugaiu, and tho painting entirely dis-
appears—to come out again in the firing.
The painters, of course, havo the most diffi-
cult and delicate work and get tho highest
wages, from $125 to $175 and *"100 a month.

as a "dry cough," use Ayer's Cherry Pec-
toral—the best anodyne medicine.
"I have been a life-long sufferer from weak
lungs, and, till I used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
was scarcely evor frse from a cough. This med-
icine always relieves me and strengthens iny
lungs, as no other medicine ever did. I have in.
duced many of my acquaintances to use the
2'ectorul, and it always proved beneficial, partic-
ularly so in the case of my son-in-law, Mr. Z. A.

"I havo used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral for bron-
chitis and lung diseases, for which I believe It to
be tlie greatest medicine in the world."—James
Miller, Caraway, N. 0.
Anga A. Lewis, Rjcard, N. Y., say,: "Five
years ago I had a constant cough, night sweats,
was greatly reduced in flesli, and had been given
up by my physicians. I began to take

" I have taken Ayer's Cherry Toctoral occa.

the Double-Thread "Lock Stitch." It is tho perfection of mechanism for Hemming, Fell-
ing, Binding, Cording, Braiding, Seaming, Tucking, Ruffling, Gathering, Embroidering?
Hem Stitching, Quilting, ctc.
It is adapted to every variety of sewing, from the lightest muslins to the heaviest
cloths, and will do a greater range of work than any other machine.
The Woodwork is unique and attractive in style, and substantially made from well-
eoasoned and carefully-selected material. Its elegant finish and rich trimmings aro in
good taste, and harmonize with the excellent woiKmanahip of tlie machine.
Far more handsome and ornamental than the ordluary style of woodwork, it is at tha
fame lime of equal durability, utility ana good linlsb.
