FOR THE FAIR SEX.
How to Dress with Taste.

The art of dress comprises color, tex
ture, form and ornamentation. The
first consideration should be directed 10
color. The accepting OF fashionable
shades, without any regard to the
claims of complexion, is great error,
and the result Is rarely correct. BY
chance one may sometimes make good
hit in such matters, although by acci-
dent some of the best things in existence
have come to light. Red, this season.
is quite fsvorite, and can be worn by
the blonde and TIE brunette but the
former must exercise little disc, elton
in adopting to any profusion this telling
dye. The blonde who can be6ttingly
adUrn herself in scsret Trimmings,
and especially where the hue is in
close proximity to the complexion,
should be very fair; n clear white
skin will beautifully reflect the bright
ness of the scarlet; whereas face that
has yellowish hue, or rather fiorid
aspect, should never appear to favor
scarlet; ii this color is worn at all by
such, let it be far away from the face,
except when arranged in an evening
toilet. A brunette cannot wear pale
green, which is most becoming to the
fair beauty. Orange is the brunette's
own color; but if the dark belle has
blue eyes this dazzling shade will not
enhance her appearance. The color OF
the toilet should be of that nature to
impart healthy tone to the complex.
ion. This idea when eflectually pro
duced has very satisfactory result,
Avoid wearing those colors that heigh-
ten or destroy either the red, yellow OF
white in the natural flesh tints.

WOmRn's Work.

Women frequently complain that men
do not know how hard they are obliged
to work. The many little things they
are requil ed to do are quite as taxing
upon them, they rightly say, as the
larger labors of the masculine sex. The
Rev. Thomas X. Beecher says some
thing on this subject which all women
will appreciate. "All men," remarks
this distinguished gentleman, fought
to go to the woods and do their
washing and general work, such
as sweeping, housekeeping and
dish washing. Tho work of wo-
men is not spoken of sensibly by
men till they have done it themselves.
Gentlemen readers, it is easy TO talk,
but just try it on very modest scale
once and you will honor working women
more than ever. Do as | have done
do wash Of six pieces. and then re-
member that woman turns off 200
pieces day. Look at your watch and
see how long it takes you. Look at
your soap and see how much you have
used. Look at your white clothes, hand
kerchiefs and towels and see what you
have done, al d never again speak harshly
of or to a woman on washing.day,
nor OF laundry work as if it were
unskillful labor. Try it. A sympa-
tbetic gentleman, having washed two
pieces, will never change his shirt
again without glow of reverence and
gratitude. She did this. A similar
and salutary consciousness will come
over him who darns his own socks,
patches his own trousers, spices his
susrenders and washes his dishes.
Look not every man upon his own
things, but every man upon the work
OF woman. Such an experience in
the woods will go far toward settling
the woman questi n, by teaching Us
that we are all members OF one another,
and there must be no schism."
