doll shows, and all of them mean but one
thing You probably think that the horse
show was to incite the breeding Of good
horses, the flower to make orchids finer and
chrysanthemums bigger, and the dolls to
make popular hand work aud charity-noth-
ing Of the sort.
They are all for one cause, the encourage
ment OF woman. They simply form horsey.

though rather doubt her having anything
to do with the saints above. She is the
acme of self possession. and parades around
the tan-park, or the soft dirt, or the linen
cover, and bids all the world look
at her. Sometimes she is worth it.
sometimes she isn't. Sometimes she
goes in for being picturesque, and
only achieves dowdiness; sometimes she

woman. suggests lady of the lake. Some
times she achieves her end, and then she Is
so Overlooking with pride that one wonders
she doesn't burst. 1t is a funny thing, but
there are days in New York when you see
none but pretty women and days when you
could bet without any fear of losing it, the

mans picture, that you wouldn't meet a
| good-looking woman on the street.
FAMOUS ACTRESSES ON BROADWAY.
The other day the beauties were TO the
| fore, and all down Broadway they came in
regular procession. Looking like lady in
plcture-booK, or one of Boucher's nymphs
in Worth frock, was Lillian Russell You
| had just gotten over the intoxication Of her
| good looks when fascinating Sadie Mar
| tinot, in a cloth frock with some beautiful
sables about her, smiled at YOU, and you
wondered what you were going to do; and
if it wouldn't he wiser TO chop your heart
in little bits. and lay a small piece at tho
feet of each beauty. Then Minnie Palmer,
oquettish-looking in scarlet jacket
trimmed in gold braid, and a fetching little
scarlet hat and after her Mrs. Ladenberg,
a typical aristocrat, hair dark and
| glossy, gown simple and fitting her as if the
king of tailors had made it, feet and hands
perfectly shod and gloved. and tiny bon
net very suggestive of the Princess Of Wales
on her head. Rolling by in a carriage goes
| the hy-llke looking woman, Mrs. Burke
Roche; and walking as if they knew the
value OF exercise and fresh air are Mrs.
Kendall and her daughter Daisy, both in
| cloth gowns, and each wearing a rather
wide-brimmed felt hat, under which CLEAN
bright eyes and are visible the purest aad
| clearest of compilations.
THE wELL-KNOwN MEN OF NEW YORK.
For a change there are some good-looking
men-Herman Oelrichs big, blonde and
! we'll groomed; Willard, the English actor,
| picturesque. Irving like, and utterly uncon-
| sciouS of the looks that are bel given him.
Then comes little chap who poses as the
| leader of fashion in New York, and
who looks as if he hadn't had a good
training when he was young; as if there
hadn't been enough of early to bed and a
a sufficient application of the conscience
| encourager, the slipper in the days of his
youth. Cause whyl Because he is smiling
and leering at women until their cheeks
grow red and they feel as if they would
! like somebody to kick him. He would be
shot in some places for this behavior, he
would be an ornament attached to the end
of a rope in some others, but in civilized
countries women learn to ignore such cads
or to keep quiet about their bushes. After
him comes healthy, wholesome looking
Mayor Grant, blonde and clean looking; he
| is a delightful antidote. Oh, it is the
afternoon for handsome people, and to
morrow it may be the day for those who
haven't the least claim to good looks.
| FOR WOMANS TOILET TABLE.
Have you the proper mania for glass?
| Are you educated up to the kind which
should be on your dining and dressing table
Or do you still believe that any kind you
| may like is desira lie! The glass for your
| dining-room should be gold and white and
so should that be which decorates your toilet
table. You thought your silver appoint
ments were enough, but indeed they are
not. You want puff box, not qpite but
neariy as large as the smallest sized bowl,
and this must be Of gold and white glass,
while the huge puff which is to go in it is
white with an ivory sphinx for its
| handle Then you want a white and
| gold glass jar into which you have split
a lot of powder, and this holds the other
puff, the one with the long ivory handle.
| What's that for? Why, my dear girl, to
powder the back Of your neck, to be sure.
| You can't reach it with another puff unless
you are a good gymnast. Then the tall
| TASKS that hold eau de cologne, white lilac,
or whatever your favorite scented water
may be, to match the powder box and jar.
Then you want couple of wine glasses and
| tiny wine service, in case during the pro-
tracted toilet you need something 80 brace
| you up, though, of course, If you have your
| face washed by professional two or three
times week your toilet does not take so
| long a time; still it demands some attention
beside that given it by the regular washer.
PROFESSIONAL FACE WASHERS.
You don't believe it's done? But it is,
though. You go to a place where this is
made a speciality Of, tell what you want,
and you then are taken into a charmingly
| cool and delightful-looking room-a room
where everything seems the very expression
Of cleanliness The floor is covered with
mating several dressing tables are draped
with embroidered muslin, and on small
tables, also draped in white, are large bowls
beside which are scented soaps. sponges,
curious little instruments, the use Of which
neither you nor / can understand, and be-
side each table is a gas Jet on which brass
tea kettle stands, so that the hottest Of
water may be gotten in a very few seconds.
Don't be surprised if the operator tells you
that your face is very dirty, for IL probably
is, inasmuch as not one woman out of ten
knows how to keep it clean.
WASHING WoAIAN's FACE.
She begins by bathing it with tepid
water, the tepid is gradually increased to
very hot, and soap is plentifully used upon
it. After another hot bath rinsing off all
the SOAP the operator squeezes out few of
the black heads that are showing themselves,
just few at time, and after this is done
she anoints you with some soft cream, so
that the places may not be irritated and for
few minutes you lie back in an
easy chair and feel how delightful II
is to have an absolutely clean face.
Then the hot water is used
again, the cream removed from your face
