These girls often wear their whole

strings OF pearls about their ears and
their necks aud wrists are decorated
with gold aud pearls. The poorer girls
try TO initiate their rich sisters. None of

! some of the finest embroideries we get
from Turkey are made by these Armenian

Have Some Regard for Your Voice.
How to preserve the voice and keep 1t
presumably fresh is almost like asking
how to keep from growing old. Some
people grow faster than others because
they are impruuent and do not take care
OF themselves. h voice should not be
imposed up0n, and instead OF growing
husky in a decade It should remain com
paratively fresh for two and even four
decades. PATHS voice is a fiue example
OF n that has never been imposed upon,

Refinement In Dress.
The deliberately dressed woman on the
street especially, is destined to be Il rar-
ity. Flashy styles will be given over to
the marked women who seek for atten-
tion-attention so far as the criticisms of
their own sex and the sneers of the men
are concerned. That the time is ripe for
a material change in the fashions is con-
coded by all women OF taste and intelli-
gence. Styles nave run to the extreme,
until only a little distance remained to
the point of h exceedingly ridiculous.
The strain on the purse has been severely
felt.

every nand are welcoming the dawn Of

Manual Training for Women.
One Of the most significant signs Of the
times is the progress being made in the
manual training of women. The public
School of Art for women at Bloomsbury,
England, holds q high rank in its instruc-
ton In It's art and mathematics, and is en-
tirely in the hands OF women professors.
In South Kensington more pupils in pro-
portion to their number carry off prizes
in the yearly national competitions than
in any erinstitution. In Belgium there
Is an Ec0le Professional numbering no
pupils, and its object IS to give women u
thorough professional manual education
simultaneously with theoretical teaching.
In Holland similar schools exist, which
admit to their classes yonng girls of every
rank in society, and not only teach every
sort of handicraft suited to professional
work, but also furnish excellent oppor-
tunftIes for liberal culture to hose who
do not need to make of art a means of
support. In Denmark the professionally
artistic education of women is of a yet
more ad yanced character, and the gov
eminent school of decorative art is at
tended by 100 women pupils, who are adj
mirably trained to take up art IN its vari-
Gus professionally.
