Actresses Arts.

A great many tricks of stage costume
spring from personal defects. In whatever
cut OF waist Modjeska appears, there Is
always bunch of flowers or bow placed
at the left Of her open corsage. When
this device is not resortcd to, a little strap
of silk will be trailcd across diagonally, or
a littlo fan of lace will suddenly spring
from tho left corner, in order to hide scar
on the breast that looks as If 1t might be
tho result Of wound from poniard, q
"souvcnir, OF romance
Poor Lucille Western was afflicted by a
birth-mark. She was q regular female
Esau. About her waist there was growth
Of silky brown hair, which ran. o a point
In front. When 1t came above tho: OPS of
her dresses 1t was carefully shaveS. but
the skin always remained blue. So Lucille
wore hugo cross dangling just over that
portion Of her anatomy.
Parepa Rosa had deep vaccination soar
far down her robust arm, and when her
sleeves were very short a knot of ribbon or
trail Of flowers used to cover 1t. Before
she grew 30 extremely stout she wore o
golden band above the elbow to hide 1t, but
when her annlet had to be as big as
waistcoat she abandoned the oddity. One
night, speaking Of this scar to an American
girl who Sat In her dressing room, the Van.
kee offered Parepa an immediate and Q effec-
tual cancealment Of the offending spot.
She took one of the candles off the toilet
table, and holding 1t above the arm, lot
one drop Of the melted wax fall Upon the
place, and there was no further heed Of
concealing devices A dash OF f1esh.tinted
powder completed tho. cure, and Parepas
makeup box forever after contained a bit
Of wax candle. "@h53ai aiy.aHii 41fsls99

Tho origin ofOur Clothing.

How did we come to possess our pres
ent form OF drcssa Clothing at first was
almost entirely ornamental. The exccp-
tlons were such articles as belts
from which instruments of various kinds
could be suspended 80 as to be ready for
use while the hands were left free. A
savage does not enjoy the luxury of a
pocket. Even at the present day up
anese has to sling his tobacco pipe and
pouch from his belt, and the only pockets
he has are in his sleeves. 'rhc simple
c;ncture was the germ, 80 to speak, Of the
clothing we wear. After some time a
bunch Of pandanus slips were added in
front, and this was gra adually extended un-
ul 1t made complete fringe around the
bouy. When the arts became 80 lar advan.
ced that man could make paper cloth or
some woven material these latter were sub
stituted for the primitive fringe, and the
Kill was thus developed. Curiously enough,
tho dress Of the Scottish Highlanders en-
bodies those two stages Of progress in the
Kilt and the sporran. AS man advanced
there were lnconeviences attending the use
OF the kilt, which we're abated by fastening
that garment at one point between the legs,
ana the human mind was then fairly set upon
the path to arrive at the attainment of q
pair of trousers. When the back and shoul-
ders needed protection the savage used the
skin of some animal, and 1t is from this
sort OF covering for the upper part of the
dy that we have derived our coats, vests,
| shirts, etc. But the ancient cloak form Ia
even yet retained, not only by such peo-
pie as Zulu chiefs, but in all roles OF core
mony by dignitaries OF court and college of
tho most highly civilized nations on the
face Of the earth. The elaborate and var
led head coverings Of tho present day all
sprang from vtry simple original type.
