sewing, we must try and see through TINS
pile of correspondence which loads table
and desk. We must spare time first,
however, to glance at the trousseau OF
Princess Louise of Wales as told in Lon
don letters for republican girls. Many a
republican girl. however, spends more
on her wedding gowns than the princess,
whose trousseau cost only $50, OOO. II
does seem a shame that really lovely
princess like the Louise, who deserves
the name of nice girl, not markedly
brilliant artistic or fascinating,
but just enough of all three
to be desirable, should not have
more brilliant portion, but such Is the
penalty Of having a princely papa with
extraYagant tastes which must be gratl-
fed 1t is to be hoped she will find
pleasure enough in spending the revenue
of Fife to make up for losing the state OF
princess. But all women read with sym
pathy that she gains young husDano 10
whom she is devoted, and let US pray ne
will be as devoted TO her. She has some
excellent lace, fit for princess anyhow,
fine Irish point, and a grand devant, or
| front of a dress, IN reproduction OF me
! old Venetian work, by the first English
| failed in forty years of contributing an
order to each royal marriage.
| The artistic tastes of the princess are
| shown in her choice of the palest colors,
! shadowy pink, rose and gobelin tints for
! her grand dresses with some exquisite
| black toilets to set off her fair complex
| ion. The going away costume was the
| prettiest, gown of supple white slclI-
| ienue. a cloak of white cloth with Medlcl
| collar of white ostrich feather trimming
| which was carried down the fronts, tulle
bonnet and parasol trimmed to match
the bonnet with white feather, the flower
| of good luck English girls are not
| afraid of looking bridal, for one rlcn girl
| goes away in white cloak lined with
| rose color. with white neapolitan bonnet
and another wears white mOhair gowns
| and white cloth jackets, with silver
braiding. Speaking of white gowns,
which are seen so much at summer re-
sorts, the proper glove to wear with them
is the long white Beige kid, with loose
/ wrist. no buttons and emily the finest
stitching on the backs. To descend from
princesses and NewpOrts and Lenox drlv-
inc costumes, the French glovemakers
have done a kind thing in furnishing as
1 sorted shades of thread for mendlng
gloves at % cents a dozen skeins IN all
| the modish eolors, which is great help
in keeping gloves in perfect condition
Now to the serious questions of life on
1 complexion, for every woman wants the
complexion fit for a princess anyhow and
one that will not shame white gloves III
the wearing.
Emma J. wants TO know how to keep
her face and eyes from getting red and
infamed in a high wind.
bo 4bprpnOb1v in cold water
and dry it thoroughly few minutes be-
fore going out and wear shady hat and
| veil till the eyes grow stronger. Prob
ably they are over-used or do not have
sleep enough to rest them, or the system

| fruit and baths are the best corrective.
Newport Mary kindly reminds us tina
Lait Antephelique, French cosmetic, Il
a sure destroyer of freckles, but alas they
! return. and asks for something to render
the skin incapable of rusting. A cou1s'
I of tonics, citrates, iron and beetsteak
with much outdoor life will in time
charge the blood with healthy coloring
but meanwhile shady hats ana ven
sometimes are the only preventive. I'M
readers of this letter viii be obliged fol
her very kind suggestion Of anything t
remove freckIes even at the risk of theI

can onlv be removed by plenty OF res
and outdoor air. 1t is a sign of eXhauste
vitality. For the flushing of face Whe
warm use aperients, like castor-oil
Rochelle salts or rhubarb, and hot foot
baths daily till relieved.

Dossessor of a coarse and very oily skin
