* SUNSHINE AND CLOUD.
The beautiful white gown in the cut
herewith was made of mat white faille,
with no trimming save a vest plastron
of white satin and a sash riblnm tied in
the back of the same material The
sleeves are long and have pulls of faille
at the top and wrists, and two slashes of
satin at the elbow. The dress is cut
high in the neck and the effect is rich,
chaste and elegant, and sufficiently fine
for any young lady. This same model
followed out in veiling, or Japanese
crape, would be exquisite, as both those
materials drape even more gracefully
than faille.
The handsome black lace dress beside
the other is plain and has a simply gath-
ered waist, half high in the neck, and is
gathered very full at the back. The
skirt is made up over a glace Blip. There
is a border of am tier head trimming
around the neck and waist, as well as
down the front, the black and amber
making it a very effective gown for a
brunette. There are no sleeves, but
whoever makes a dress after this design
would do well to have sleeves of lace,
which can lie basted in when required,
and a guimpe of lace over colored silk,
which will instantly transform this dano-
ing dress to a decorous afternoon or din-
ner toilet.
White will be worn much more than
any color for ball dresses this winter.
A very beautiful one is made of a white
silk or satin slip with black lace over
dress,and it is often seen that the petticoat
is of white silk with the upper skirt
looped a little to show it, or left open on
one side or the other for a narrow space.
White will be used very much as com-
binations with all colors and materials.
For the woolen goods there will be pan-
els and accessories of fine felt flannel
and broadcloth.either embroidered finely
in gold or silver thread or braid.
In making up white cashmere veiling
or crepe, the most effective combination
is moire, and, as such dresses are not
calculated nor expected to last a life-
time, it is just as well to buy the cheaper
grades of those goods, if you only know
how to treat them, as the kind that costs
five times as much. If you take the
cheapest moire or satin, which costs from
49 to 75 cents |>er yard,

Chkaoo. Nov. 7.—The Rev. Ada C.
Bowles comes from the sturdy stock of
New England, which gave to the repub-
lic its educational system. She was born
in Gloucester, Mass., in 1836. She
grew up with a passionate fondness for
the sea and is, as she has always been,
equally at home either in or on the
water. She is an expert swimmer, and
her undaunted courage and rare pres-
eua of mirvl havo en'.Wed h-r upon
different ocra ions to rescue persons
from ilrowni ;g.
Nature gave her a sound mind in a
sound body, and her early life among
the rocks of Cape Ann gave her the well
balanced physical development which
resulted in a perfectly healthy woman-
hood. Acquiring rapidly and with ease
all that was tdught in the public schools
of Gloucester, she was yet wholly unsat-
isfied with her attainments and pushed
forward with different studies by her
self. At the age of 1") she began to
teach in the public schools. She contin-
ued in this vocation Until she was
employing, meanwhile, such leisure as
she could command in study and in
writing for the press. She then married
a popular clergyman, Rev. B. F. Bowles,
pastor of the Universaiist church, at
Melrose. Mass.
Although by this marriage she became
the stepmother of three children and
later the mother of three more, she still
found time for a variety of church work,
including teaching an aduit Cible class,
ller success with this class led her to
deeper theological study, under the di-
rection of her husband. Mr. Bowles is a
man who recognizes in his wife a talent-
ed human being, possessed of abiluy if
not identical, at least equal with his
own. He desired that his wife should
in all things his companion, and after
having given her a thorough course in
theology, he encouraged her to preach
the gospel, which she had long felt called
to declare.
She began in 1869 by supplying vacant
pulpits in New England. In 1872 she
was licensed to preach, and in a short
time she was called to the Universaiist
church at Easton,
Pa. While she
was pastor of the
church at Easton
her husband had
charge of the
Church of the
Restoration in
Ph i 1 a d e I p h i a.
Mrs. Bowles was
regu I a r ly or-
dained in 1874,
and since haa
preached and lectured in most
large cities of the United States.
At present Mrs. Bowles is the non-
resident pastor of the Universaiist church
at East Gloucester, Mass., while her hus-
band has charge of the Universaiist
church at Abingdon, in the same state.
In addition to her ministerial duties she
lectures in various parts of the country
under the auspices of the Women's
Christian Temperance union, in which
organization she has charge of the de-
partment of scientific temperance. She
is also the national lecturer of the Ameri-
can Suffrage association.
In addition to all these duties Mrs.
Bowles still finds time to be a notable
housekeeper, and is ever a cheery, affec-
tionate wife and mother. One of her
family asserts that her sense of humor
and unfailing good spirits ere a constant
source of brightness in the household.
Indeed, so well ordered is her home that
among her friends and coworkers she is
known as the "model housekeeper." One
of her most popular lectures is "Strong
Minded Housekeeping," which is an em-
bodiment of her own experience.
Mrs. Bowles is possessed of remarkable
mechanical dexterity and handles a ham
mer and saw as cleverly as a rolling pin.
She is small of stature, with a strong,
magnetic face and soft curling iron gray
hair. She in lithe and full of nervous
energy, and in swaking is not only en-
thusiastic ai:d eloquent, but is clear and
logical, witii an intense sincerity which
appeal;, to the couvi-tJor.a. In listening
to tier one can out iec.1 that the opinions
she utters have been a light to her own
steps.
Mrs. Bowies is very popular, and is al

On the Brandywine. in Delaware, live
the DupHits, of gunpowder fame. They
are all rich, and Maurice Dupont a year
ago, when hf waa 21. come into a hand-
some fortune. On the 1st of last June
several members of the family landed
from the Cunard steamer Etruria al
Quecnutown, among them Muuriee. They
took up their quartern in the (Queen's ho-
tel. winch overlooks the bay. and. the sit-
uation U-ing pleasant, concluded to stay
awhile |
Now whether it was in remembrance
of his beloved Brandywine, or whether
because he was naturally thirsty after a
voyage over so much salt water, there ia
no definite information, but at all events
Maurice strolled into the bar An Eng-
lish or Irish bar. lie it remembered, is
quite a different affair from an Ameri-
can har. It is not presided over by a
man in a white waistcoat or jacket as in
America, but by the prettiest girl that
can be found. She serves the drinks,
bringing them to a little table nvhere the
imbiber sits, and puts down the tumblers
with a most engaging smile. In Amer-
ica such a barmaid would at once
be looked upon as bold and unwomanly
Not st> on the other side. The barmaid
is an English institution, centuries old.
Not the maid, but the institution, mind
you. for the maid must be always young
and pretty; yet. although she is usually
called "my dear* by the visitors, the
barmaid in a first class hotel is no more
a subject of suspicion than any other
woman who makes her living by honest
labor.
Now the youth, fresh from the waters
of the Brandywine. having strolled into
the bar at the Queen's hotel, was served
by a very pretty young Irish girl. She
was the daughter of a farmer who had
come to town to get a living, and so at-
tractive was she that her admirers were
numerically identical with the men who
stopped at the hotel. Tottie was the
name by which he was known, though
her real name was Margaret Fitzgerald.
Every body ad-
mired Tottie, and
everybody liked
Tottie and wish-
ed her well.
It was a very
easy matter for
Maurice Dupont
to put up at the
Queen's hotel and
to drift into the
bar, but it was
quite a different
matter to drift
out again. The

who was serving the liquors, and when
others were not present, or buried in
their papers, or dozing, the young man
would be chatting with the pretty bar-
maid, so that the two soon got very
chummy. Indeed, it is 6aid that once
when Tottie was hard pressed by too
many thirsty customers Maurice came to
the rescue and assisted her. Besides all
these attentions he frequently drove her
out, that she might point out to him the
objects of interest in the neighborhood,
one of which is a place which, if lovers
do not usually visit it, they at least talk
as if they had been there, and that is
Blarney castle, though it isn't affirmed
that either Maurice or Tottie kissed the
Blarney stone.
Naturally all this attracted attention
and when one day a steamer came along
and picked up the young gunpowder
millionaire, those who had been watch*
ing the proceedings felt sorry for Tottie.
for it looked as if she had been jilted.
It is said that the course of true love
never runs smooth. This is not so with
reference to Maurice and Tottie, for their
love affair ran as smooth as a toboggan
slide, though perhaps not quite as fast
as a toboggan. Maurice sailed over the
sea and got the consent of all his rela-
tives to his marriage with Tottie (though
as he had no mother or father, there was
not much use asking anybody's consent)
and went back to Queenstovvn, and the
banns were published, and the prospec-
tive groom spent no end of money in a
trousseau, and one fine day in October
of this year, they were married in the
church of SS. Peter and Paul by the
Rev. Canon Sheehan.
This isn't all. Tottie, who is now Mrs
Dupont. needs a little polishing up as to
books and things. So her husband took
her to Switzerland, where there are lot--
of schools, and she is going in for an edu
cation before she goes back to Wilming-
ton to be received by her husband's rela-
tions, the aristocratic Duponts When
she makes her appearance, though per-
haps she may feel n trifle timid at first
she will doubtless take them all with hei
beauty, and her accomplishments, and
her genial disposition and her many vir
tues; for though she was a barmaid
whose position was not at all equal to
that of the Duponts, everybody basal
ways spoken well of her. and rejoice at
her good fortune at passing froiu the

the Brandywine that runs through Deia
