-"Men do not marry" And yet the
most inveterate clubman, the mocker of
love In cottage, was once youth not
blase, to whom the vision of a home was
enchanting. Almost every man tries his
hand at realizing some such dream early in
! life, but the attempt Is usually nipped in
the bud by want of means or by failure to
win the particular woman on whom his
heart Is set He suffers acutely, but man
is an elss:ic creature. In time he mingles
again with the world, not entirely proof
| against feminine fascination, but finding it
almost impossible to set up an ideal. Mat
rOns with attractive daughters cannot COM
plain that their girls see few men. The
tendency Of the age is TO level the barriers
between The sexes. Tie natural tendency
of such intimate association would be
matrimOny. But the fact is that men who
might have had serious intentions are
frightened off before liking begets love.
There is an all prevailing fuss pervading
the intercourse of young people which is
altogether detrimental. The instant pair
o~Siu III iOk
each others society the wide world around
them is instantly on the qui vive. The
mother watches, fnsses, reports to her crO-
wounding her sense of delicacy and max
ing her conscious and constrained, or lead
ing her to imagine herself beloved, when
the mans feeling is only that of pleasure
in the society of a Young woman who does
her best to make herself agreeable. Men
are usually ignorant how girls note and
weigh the attention they receive, and that
they impart the details of such homage to
sympathetic Off envious) feminine ears,
thus giving body to vague nothings and
broOding over trihes till they gather shape.
Meanwhile the man, having said the pretty
things his idea of politeness has prompted,
goes away, forgetting them and their re-
cipient, while she is expecting a DECLARE
ton as the Jesuit of few soft nOthings, q
squeeze of the hand or tender glances.
Women are not aware, on the other hand,
how sincerely he may like and admire q
girl without a thought beyond mere good
will. And it is precisely Ithe better kind
OF man who falls into thu misfortune of
raising false hopes-the man who believes
in the simplicity and candor of women, de-
sires their sympathy and values their re-
gard.
A tasteful walking dress is in dalk
green vicugna made in wide plaits over .
foundation of silk in the same color.
Round the edge runs q plated founce,
over that falls the yicugna skirt arrayed in
wide plaits from the waist and edged with
band of chinchilla six inches deep. Down
the front of the skirt runs panel of the
new braided passementerie on cloth. The
tunic adjoins it on either side. A second
short draped tunic is folded searf-fashiOn
round the hips, and forms little fullDess
at the back. A tightly fitting jacket of the
vicugna has a trimming of chinchilla four
inches deep up The two fronts, and round
the collar and sleeves. A felt hat of the
Henri Deux shape is made to accompany
this costume, ard is trimmed with q band
of green velvet and large group of feath-
ers, some gray and some green.
"A dinner dress is in he new shade of
"London smoke soft, deep gray-aDd
made of velvet. prettier name for this
lovely color would be evening mist" or
twilight grav," both of which it suggests.
The dress is made with sn adjustable train,
which can be removed by undoing few
fastenings, and leaves a complete skirt,
walking length. The lower part of the
front is covered with q deep scarf, or dra--
perry of richest brocade ottoman, the de-
sign being small ostrich feathers in Lion

upon a ground of silver-gray. The tunic
Of folded velvet crosses above this pas
sementerie, from which droops q buuch Of
grapes in gray psssementerie and beads.
The train is edged with futing of gray
satin, which looks like the silver lining to
q dark cloud. The bodice has q quaint
little 6chu of white lace, beginning on the
right shoulder under . bunch of grapes
smaller than that on the tunic, and ending
on the bosom under another bunch. The
sleeves come we'll round the turn of the ell
bow and end in graceful drapery of white
lace, narrow on the inner side of the arm,
but wider and more flowing underneath.
