How New York Women are Fteeced ny
Pretentious Tradesmen.
Written for the GLos s-RErunLic.l

though l have no genius for them, will
admit have seen women OF wealth array
themselves in robes that cost shockingly and
looked the same. Women Of the middle
class are almost universally admitted TO be
the most tasteful dressers. The rich overto
the art OF dressing. In their struggle TO get
the best, and 30 emphasize the line
between themselves and those not rich
they frequently attain dowdyism.
have often looked into their carriages, here
hoping 10 see the refined combination of
tasteful dress and culture which wealth can
give il its people can receive IL; but seldom,
indeed, have | been rewarded. There are
rich people who have great taste and judg
ment in their dress; but far oftener they
throw themselves upon the taste Of their
modiste and milliner, and are undone at
cruelty high figure.
am not advocating the purchase OF cheap
goods, but deprecating the practice OF buy
ing cheap things at high prices
New York is full Of traps for the unwary
in the shape of modistes and milliners.
know of one dressmaker who will not touch
the dmplest woolen dress under s35 She
fits well, to be sure; but that Is too much
for even good fit. At that price she | so
overri n by customers that she actually re-
fuses some. They go away with tears in
their eyes, utterly disconsoate because she
will not do their work. They truly believe
that nobody else can make garment fit to
look at. 1t is all a matter of confidence.
We see the same thing in the employment of
physicians. Let family get used to one
and the medicine of no other benefits them
in their mind
The art of dressing well on limited cap
ital is an accomplishment born Of natural
taste, Judgment and the exercise of economy.
Wealth does not cultivate it, for the rich
woman can afford to make experiments. II
her purchases do not suit her after she has
given them trial she relegates them to her
cook and her maid and makes another at.
tack on the shops. Not so the woman
who must make 500 cover her
seasons wardrobe, making and all She
experiments only in her mind. She sees
each garment take shape, and puts them all
on, mentally, to see the effect, long before
she has purchased any. They represent
thought rather than money. This is why
they are so appropriate. They show the
mind work OF which they are the result.
