Countesses Dance the Ballet.

From Paris Letter.
You will remember that the young
Duke de Morny few years back used,
with set of his chums, to give ballet
performances. The duke himself was
the leading dancer in the ballet, and
used to pirOuet about in pink tights and
gauze skirts to the delectatiou of his
select male friends. Well, the ladies'
have followed his example. A very few
fashionable ladies, led by tie Countess
de Goutout, daughter of the Duchess de
Maille; the Warehouses d'Hervey de st.
Denis, and the Countess DAILY started
it. and society has taken it up with eager
ness. At the public and mixed gather
jngs these ladies do not, of course, ap-
pear in regular ballet costume. But
they wear style of dress that is we'll
adapted to the purposes of such
dance. 1t is sleeveless, cut desperately
low in the neck and back, and is short
enough in the skirts to reveal the satin
shoe, much of the pink stocking, and
the embroidered and jeweled garter
just below the knee. In this bewitch-
ing garb they dance many of the favor
tie ballet movements, and display a skill
and grace that would do credit to the
stage of the opera. The Countess de
GOutout is considered to be the most ac-
complished of all these amateur queens

st. Paul business and professional men
have been spoken to concerning the Sc

for athletic sports and they have all in

Considerable newspaper comment
was made at the time Lamar was swoxn
in on the fact that he wore brand new
silk robe, and it was said by some, in
words of bitterness, that he was too
confident of his confirmation. The fact
is that the Judges of the Supreme Court
are somewhat particular as 10 their robes
and some of them change them more
frequently than others do. The wealth

est number of silk robes, AMI it hap
pened that Judge Field some time ago
ordered new robe, which was delivered
at the Supreme Courtroom on the morn

Judge Field insisted that MIR. Lamar

The Charm of Fenlininity.

AS to the question Of beauty, one elderly
club man says that it used to be common
thing to see people-men and women both
turning around to look at girls on the streets,
but that such thing rarely happens nova
days. In Franco that used to be held as a
test of real beauty. A great Partisan belle
said sadly, after returning home from walk
one morning: 81 am getting old; tho Gamins
on the street no longer stop to admire me.
] am going home to improve my mind"
Another man attributes this partly to tailor
made gowns.
He says that severe style robs women OF
their feminine charms. 1t began in the plain
habits for hunting in England, and on horse
back it is appropriate and pretty; once in a
while it is very piquent to see woman in q
masculine sort OF dress, but now they have
allowed plainness to creep into even their
bail toilets, and on the street a well dressed
New York woman is as severe in her style OF
raiment as her brother. Hair must be a.
smooth as silk, with only stiff, rigid little
bang, a rim OF stiff white linen about the
throat and wrists, and every garment as neat
and simple as it is possible to make it. It
makes the New York girl model of fresh
cleanliness, but she doesn't look as pretty as
she used to when more flowing and graceful
lines were allowed, and she made no attempt
to look anything but strictly feminine.-St.
Louis Post-Dispatch.

Use Of Cold Starch.

The principal objection to the use OF cold
starch, made by many women, is that it
sticks so to the irons. If it is made in the
following way, and the irons are smooth,
there need be no fear Of its sticking. The
quantity of starch to be used depends upon
the article to be starched, and, also, on how
stiff it is wished to be- For collars and cuffs
a tea spoonful of raw starch in a half pint OF
cold water will make enough for six collars.
while for dress half cupful of starch to
half pailful Of cold water is not bit too
much. One or two trials will convince the
housewife just how much to use. Put the
starch into the water, and after it has dis
solved wash the hands clean, then, with some
clean. good soap wash them again in the
starch, using the soap proIniscuously. The
washing in the starch is only to make nice
white suds Take out the soap. and putting
in tho article to be starched rinse it thor
oughly until sure that the starch has reached
every part wished Then ring it out tightly
and pass through tho wringer. The article
must have been dried thoroughly outside be-
fore being put into the starch. After taking
it from the wringer shake it well, roll it up
in dry cloth, let lie for about ten minutes,
then iron with hot irons mot hot enough to
burn, and there will be no sticking. Clothes
done up in this way will look much nicer and
iron smoother than if done in the old way
