One of the season’s prettiest combin- ations appears in a French gown of sage-gray camel’s-hair, with plastron, sleeve-tops, and collar of pale blue mirror velvet. The skirt is of circular shape, closed in the back by means of small tabs, and trimmed to simulate a tunic, with double-shaped ruffles cut, very scant, and producing only waving lines, which are finished with a narrow stitched band of a darker shade of gray velvet. Two similar flounces ornament the bottom of the skirt, which measures four yards.

The regular winter timetable went into effect on Sunday.

Time has made but a few changes in the methods of doing business in Ponce. Out in the harbor, which is an open roadstead, vessels come to anchor to load with rum, sugar, molasses, or to- bacco, and are likely to anchor from one month to six. The houses stretch along- the flat beach back into the country, mostly wooden affairs. One- story warehouses, substantially built, and painted in tints of pink, yellow, or pale blue, front the principal streets, . filled with bales and bags of rice, sugar‘ etc., for a considerable business is. done in this port of entry, for the handsome icity of Ponce. - Back in the country, at the foot of gently sloping hills, is the city of Ponce itself. It is a two-mile drive from the Playa, through fertile fields, past Sugar factories and other manu- facturing buildings, past handsome houses set back from the road mid flowers and palms, or tumble-down hovels and wooden shanties. With the coming of Uncle Sam’s sol- diers, however, a magic hand. seems to have touched this sleepy El Dorado. It has wakeued, and the busy life of the North has invaded its streets. In the markets, instead of the old-time, easy- going method of doing business, one sees the brisk, lively banter of trade characteristic of the Americans rapidly establishing a. foothold. The streets are filled with men and women who seem to be inspirited by a new energy, strengthened by more just and equitable laws, and it can be safely predicted that, aided by the boundless wealth which nature has So lavishly best-OWed upon these kindly people, this fertile island will prove one of the most valuable possessions of the United States. Our illustration, taken from Harper’s weekly, shows a characteristic market scene of Ponce, drawn by F. Luis Mora, after a photo- graph. Here and there Uncle Sam‘s soldiers mingle with the crowd, and in the bright sunlight trade goes briskly on from day to day. W. H.
