scrvation OF Lavater, says writer of the
Boston Post, that persons habitually attcn-
Iiveto dress display the same regularity in
their domestic affairs. "Young women,"
says he, "who neglect their toilette, and
little concern about their apparel,
indicate in this very particular disregard
of order; mind but little adapted to the
details of housekeeping; a deficiency of
taste and of the qualities that inspire love.
Tue girl of eighteen who desires not to
please, will be shrcw and slut at twenty
five" 1t is a great mistake in women to
suppose that they may safely throw off all
care about dress with their celIbacy, as if
husbands had less taste than suitors or as
if wives had less need than mistresses Of
the advantage of elegant and tasteful APP
parel. An old writer says, with hearty
emphasis, " ltis one of the moral duties of
every married woman always to appear
well dressed in the presence of her hus-
band" To effect this, however, expensive
attire is by no means essential. The sim
plest robe may evince the wearer's taste as
truly rs the most costly gown of ".moire
antique" But how rare a quality is good
tastel To the matter of propriety and har-
mony of colors, there is room fora treatise,
which has yet to be written by some one
thoroughly proficient in the asthetics of
dress. Even the simpler laws, though pret-
ty generally understood, arc constantly neg
lected. Some Of these canons have been
laid down, in a most sensible manner, by
the author Of an English poem of the last
century. To brunettes he recommends high
colors--rose, orange, or even scarlet Ito
rosy-cheeked girls, lie permits blue and the
color OF the sea aud administers a caution
to pale women against vernal hues.
