being united in the same way. There is
no fullness in them.

that woman whose marital life is passed
with a husband whose thoughts, sympa-
thies, affections and desires are foreign
to her nature-not beating in accord
with the music of her SOUL"

ONE of the most beautiful compli-
ments 70 woman was that paid to Lady

check to loose behavior, and to love her
is liberal education"

skirts, whether matching the dress or not,
are cut very long in front, with ends
reaching nearly to the knees, and cut
up on the hips, to prevent he dress from
working up when sitting. This style is
mostly made for full walking suits,
which can in this way be worn without
over garments.
THIS is the poetic style INDUCED in
by Baltimore reporter: "She wore a
magnificent white silk, en- haine and
fan-tailed, deliberately trimmed, and the
usual bridal veil gathered in such grace
full folds about her classical features as
to resemble a well-becoming cap, while
its ample length fairly enveloped the
queen-like figure it adorned" There!
Isn't that real nice?
In no part of the toilette is more
coeuetry shown than in the handker
chief. They are embroidered to match
the dresses, in tinted linen lawns, and
bands of the dress material are some
times hemstitched in the borders. A
two-inch ruff1e, richly embroidered is set
plain on the sides and very fully gath
cred about the round corners. Exqsis
tie novelties to match the polka dots
meet with much favor.
THE polonaise, which had seemed to
be completely going out of fashion at
the commencement of the season, is ap-

lions forms part of the most elegant COS
tunes of the season. As it now appears,
it opens in front to show a vest, Of
which it follows the outline straight
down the front. 1t is then plated and
curved over the hips so as to form pan
iers, remains open to show the tablier,
and is draped at the back.
"THE American heroine is in the air,
new product like some rare orchid
No woman was ever injured by too much
education, though some have insulted it
by making it appear pedantry; Others
have called an unsexed strong minded
ness learning, but that was because they
} did not know quite enough. No learned
woman will ever forget that to be charm
ing is the highest accomplishment. No
American heroine will ever forget, how
ever she may study or work, that she ID
to be the bright consummate flower OF
some mans life, and that to make him
happy was the object for which she was
born. America has created and reared
her rare and beautiful orchid simply
that an American man may pluck it and
wear it next his heart"
