MAGNIFICENTLY APPARELED WOMEN.
She has happy time of it-this belle of
the White Sulphur Springs-for life here is
a series of dances, mint julepS and admira-
ton, She can dance until her satin Slip
per is worn threadbare and doesn't tire.
She does not drink so many juleps. but she
manages to imblbe them as a bird might,
her pretty face showing above the bunch of
green like the flower that it is She is
adored by young and old, and the secret of
her popularity lies in this fact that she'll
give up a dance with the man whose heart
is all her own to hobble through one with
Mold Tom Gordon, who will persist in
Hancing, thong he has wooden leg, but
saved him from being killed during
the war. She has a feminine interest in
thrills and frivols, but. like her English
cousin, rather inclnes to cotton frocks and

An other while the ''real old one" frequently
ie \scribes the limits of her wardrobe. OF
co lrse there are women here who dress
sui berbly, much more magnificently than at
nj any Of the northern watering places, but
thv lev are the wives either of tobacco kings
orvrailroad capitalists. The soft southern
spe\ ech and the pretty southern gal
anNry are infectious, and hard
hear ed, cross-grained old brokers find
themN elves saying polite nothings and
makiry g awkward but well-meant bows to
whoever may have attracted their admira-
TOM The northern man is as wax in the
handA of the southern woman, and If she
hadflught the war she'd have won it, for
she neHer would have given up while there
had bef n a man to compliment. She doesn't

sarcast ia and wit, but with the pitiful request
to be told all about something, because
"you Know so much" and the coquettish in
curry, Now stop thinking about all the
great problems that are in your mind and
tell me how you think lookg' Undoubtedly
in the south the feminine element is the
stronger. and in the hands of its women
lieth salvation.
THE SOUTHERN WOMAN is PROUD OF
WOMANLY WORK.
In the first place, they are not ashamed
to do hOnest, womanly work, and in the
next place the neighbor who does not have
to work recognizes the gentility that's q
good old-fashloned wordD of the worker;
and the girl who S ives the money to get her
null gown by selling the early strawDerrle
or raising bed of violets and sending them
TO some northern florist TO be coined into
gold is not les, respected because of it, but
is appauded by having people say. What
clever girl Jim GCrdon's Mamie is.n You
can't but admire this regard for the worker,
and you cannot but think that to work for
womanly belongings and in womanly way
is the best method of encouraging men to
work
SUPPORTING WORTHLESS MEN.
Inc best way to make lazy man a busy
one Is to force him TO realize tnat the women
OF the family have no idea whatever of
earning his trousers for him; but while
things look dark are willing to do the best
1or themselves and the children. If he is a
strong, capable man he can get his own
bread and his own belongings. But unfor-
tuhately the southern women who have
made money have lavished it too many
tnes on worthless lazy men. A woman
