For Our "tody Readers. new tore fashions. New Yore, May 19 Ed. Gaiette : In millinery there is a very spread-eagle freedom. We find red, blue, violet, orange, pnrple, green, as well also as all sorts of ramifications from and modifications of those primary says, reposing side by side w?»> itoe grearteefi tivwramto, and in as thoroughly tranquil assemblage as the happiest family that Bafnum ever brought together. Or, if one choose, one may wear hues so delioate that they seem dreamy suggestions of color,rather than realities. Then, too, your bonnet may be turned up one way, or turned down another ; it may be broad-brimmed, narrow-brim, without any brim at all ; broad -crown od, narrow-crowned, or without any crown ht all ; the deficiency bcinfognade up by silk, satin, or perhaps a miniature flower garden. Again, there is liberty in the placing of flowers, since they can be spread out in the expensive •tyleajust montionod, or they can be put at the side, in front, or at the back, and can, furthermore, be large, small, in bouquets or sprays. Manifold, too, are the ways of putting one's bat upon one's head. They can be' set well upon the bead or caused to assume graacfiilly sliding off positions characterised by greater or lest degrees of danger, until last and difficult climaxes are attained.

Those towering effects which some years ago were well-nigh terrifying, have utterly disappeared and we are in the opposite extreme. Doubtless this is in accordance with present idess as to dressing the hair, where low, simple styles are well-nigh universal.

' .. r LOWERS. *r There is a furore for natural flowers. They are of all sizes, from a rose-bud to mammoth boquets, and are placed anywhere on the front of the corsage ; frequently taking the place of the tie at the throat. Often they are attached upon one side, low in front or not unfrequentlv at the belt. Natural flowers are the first choice. All this is very pretty and gives opportunity for a great deal of coquetry, since a gentleman win contribute a bouquet of natural flowers for the completion of a lady's toilet, while propriety would hold up hands of horror t in. view of anyVVAny — hand painting is in extraordinary favor.

A Case qf Poetic Justice. yjy took " -BUDw W fr - )u undertook to dojkt would accomplish or break his beck In trying. About noon yesterday, when the rain fell fastest, he appeared on Woodward avenue under on old umbrella worth the price of its ribs. At the opera-house he placed the old rain-shedder in a doorway and took position in another not far away. In about two minntes along came a citizen with his left eye watching for just such a chance, and be hawked on that umbrella with a chuckle of deepest satisfaction. He didn't wait around there for the owner to appear, and he didn't care a copper whether it belonged to a sister of charity or an overgrown bond-holder. As he started off the grim man followed. The umbrella-hooker had a walk of half a mile to reach his residence, and thie grim man was clfise at his heels all the way. As the citizen haiieu ui his gste the ntbar dat*ar^i and quietly remarked : — "I want you to do roe a favor.** "Ah, yes — I never give anything to tramps," was the reply. "I wont you to take that umbrella back to the doorway from which you stole it !'* "This umbrella? Why, is this touts? "It is, and you must take it back I" "Well, you see, I couldn't do that.but I guess it has been worth a quarter to me." "Will you take it back r asked the man with the iron jaw. "Why, no, what's the old thing worth, anyhow r "One hundred dollars P* "That's a good joke. I'll give you 50 cents and keep it."

He had the strength of an ox and there was an "I-meant-it !" look in each eve. "Say, 1 don't want any quarrel with you." observed the citizen. Take your umbrella and a couple of dollars." "No, sir I" «*No, air I" "Say five." f'The price," sold the grim man, C1will be one hundred straight dollars, and you must take the umbrella back. If 1 stand here in the rain five minutes longer I shall charge one dollar per minute t" The citizen headed for down town. He was too mad to raise the old umbrella, but carried it under his arm, while the grim man kept clooe behind biro. When the doorway hod been reached and the umbrella replaced the citizen was about to turn away, but the other placed a hand on his revolver and said ; '^Stronger, yon are a good walker.and you have performed your share of the contract to my entire satisfaction. In the ftiture it will be well for you to buy your umbrellas in the regular way, or to take vout walks between showers. You can n >w finish your excursion !" — Detroit Fur* Press.
