A Never Ending Slavery.
-nuRr LII N n

There is one kind of physical wear and
tear In the matter OF clothes which man
escapes. He may work himself into q
frenzy because his tailor has not finished
his new dress coat in time, has made it
too long in the body or too short in the
skirts, or he may shHtter his health in
trying to satisfy the demands for sealskin
and velvet of an extravagGnt wife, but
of the omniprescent needle and the gar
ments which must be made, mended or
altered he is happily obliviOus. Not so
with the woman. Among all classes but
the very wealthy this to her is never
ending slavery. Women who have a
multiplicity of household cares, girls who
need much active exercise, tired teach
ers, who should feel free as air when the
school room door closes behind them,
shop girls, saleswomen, typewrters, all
spend hours of painful struggle over sew
ing when they should be exercising,
reading or sleeping. A specter of I'M
finished garments follows them every
where, and the pathetic phrase, 81
have such piles of sewing to do" is al
ways on their lips. An enormous
amount of female vitality is wasted in
this manner.

Children That Tense.


1t Is misfortune to q child to suppose
that teasing is essential to gaining point
that be ought to gain. A result of such
a view in his mind is that he looks not to
his parents wisdom md judgment, but
to his own positiveness and persistency as
the guide of his action In any mooted case
of personal conduct; not to principles
which are disclosed to him by one who is
in authority, but to impulses which are
wholly born in his own bosom. Such n
view is inImical to all wise methods of
thinking and doing on a child s part.
And 1t is even more of q misfortune to
the parent than to the child for child to
have the idea that the parents decision
is the result of the child's teasing rather
than that of the parents understanding
of what is right and best in a given case.
No parent can have the truest respect of
O child while the child knows that he can
tease that parent into compliance with
the child q request contrary to the pa
rents real or supposed conviction. For
the child 8 sake, therefore, and also for
the parents. every child ought to be
trained not to tease, aud not to expect
any possible advantage from teasing.

The Coming CoIOrs.
Dry Goods Economist.

The Chambre Syndicate des Fleurs et
Plumes has just brought out its new
color card, which contains sixty-six
shades. Heliotropes have been given the
best places, a proof that these will be
favorite shades during the coming season.
Blues come next In number, while the
representatives of the green and red
families have taken back seats and will
be rather neglected. The color card cou-
taius some brown shades in new effects.
or course not all the sixty-siX cOlors are
new, or even novel gradatious of old
colOrs. There are, however, several
which are entirely new.
Entirely new shades are verveine, a
medium heliotrope; bluet, a strong but
somewhat light blue; dauphin, a new
dRrkIsh reseda; maroQuin, q ligh brown =,
ard triton, blush gray shade. Dattir
is the name of new color which is q
cross between olive and sulphur yellow &.
Heliotropes are represented in the color
card by eight shades, of which dahlia is
the darkest and perse the lightest;
salome is heliotrope with blush tinge.
The blue family has Ten Representatives =,
of which the we'll known cell, or sky
blue Is the lightest, and marine blue the
darkest. Bluet is expected TO become q
very fashionable color, and libelule, q
grayish blue, will also be much worn.
Few new shades are found among the
reds. The light coquelicot is already as
we'll known as the dark grenat. Rose
and azalee are old fevorltes. The two
old roses, tulipe and glaieul, are old
friends under new names. The reddish
browns, fauvette and bouvreuil, are al
ready known. The only novelty Is pivo-
inc, a shade between old and dark red =,
which is pleasing but not striking. Ca
roube is very dark grenat.
So il the French soldiers knapsack
carries the legendary baton, the trunk of
the American girl contains the possible
blue ribbon of the turf, to be won by her
in the race for fashionable distinction.
And her ambition meets with sympathy.
For when the professional beauty, after
due study of the "Almsuach de Co
thai aud of the "British Peerage, -
leaves her home, her oonquests are ap-
plauded, not only by her family, but by
whole cities, townships and states, who
have watched her preliminary canters,
and who invest not little OF their vani-
ty in her triumphs. The more sober and
valuable achievements of American
women as sculptors, singers, artists, &C
tresses, lecturers and doctors are of
worldwide renown; for IL America has
produced Charlotte Cushman, Harriet
Hosmer, Mary Anderson and Marie Van
Zandt, society IN both hemispheres has
fallen down and worshIpped them.

it is and not as we would have it. - This
is, doubtless, true, and admitting this, it
is granted to be wiser in womer to avoid
as far as is possible all in dress and de-
meanor that would subject them to the
criticism of the uncleau. The world
still demands that Caesars wife bs above
sus picion, but though she be chaste cs
Dian she cannot hope TO escape it, par
ticulArly if she INDUCES in the least lati-
tude.
That these are fostering sores In social
life no candid person denies, but the pro-
test is against women surgeons who call
in the world to see them use scalpel aud
cRustic. If this putridity must be ex-
posed let men have the lOathsome task,
and let woman use the better surgery
that strives to heai from the inner by
pleasing and does it in quiet and retire
ment, excluding light aud air. 1t Is not
charged that Mrs. Phelps has not done
this III days past, but this departure from
her usual mode is to be deplored. Evil
exists, but let it be once admitted that
mankind is progressing in civilization
and in all which the word conveys, it
follows that there must be an aggregate
of Individual virtue III social life sufficient
TO stimulate progress aud to supply the
agencies that are placing the race upon
higher plans.
Neither is it true that because women
follow custom, that because evil con-
structiou can be put upon styles of dress
and modes of action that women as @ sex
are lending themselves to evil. Never
in woman's history was there a time
when she has put forth her energies more
actively in behalf OF social
purity and moral rectituds than
now. And il what has here
been written has purpose it is to protest
in the name of good women against an
arrginEment by those OF their own sex
what would put the woman who wears q
V shaped neck, whose feet keep time to
the merry waltz, who walks or rides I'M
attended and who sees the ballet or hears
the sensational in dramatic art, and is
fearless of evil because unconscious, upon
q level with the baser sort.
God forfeud against day when women
consent to be woman . accuser. Let her
defense be by woman, and errors in
social customs find their remedy inside
the homes where true women preside.

HIillRis on Langtry.

nMrs. Langtry,'' remarked a writer
in the Chicago Herald, "was discovered
by the artist Millais. Here is a version
of the discovery that have never seen
in print. Il seems that soma sons of
England's nobility went to the Isle of
Jersey to hunt and fish, and incident
ally Mrs. Langtry made their trip very
pleasant. Upon returning TO London
one of the scions of nobility more in graft
tude than from any appreciation or
knowledge of the beauty OF the soon-to-
be professional, persuaded his mamma
to invite his Island entertainer to London
as their guest. It was done. Mrs.
Langtry came, with the limited ward
robe that we have been told of so often.
Among the very few dresses was the one
black silk jet and lace gown that is said
to have been worn at every reception,
dinner and ball during he tbeauty's first
season. This Inevitable black gown
showed to perfection the graceful curves
of the figure, aud enhanced the purity OF
the exquisite complexion. The navel
lous classical beauty OF the wearer did
not dawn upon those Londoners, how
ever, until one evening at reception
given by the lady whom the then obscure
Jersey Lily was visiting, Millais, in bid
ding adieu to his hostess, said: Mad
am, you have goddess as your guest.
That was enough. London went wild
over her beauty. There is an exquisite
etching on sale in prominent art stores,
by a celebrated artist, Romeo and
Juliet While It Is not generally
known, 1t is plainly evident that Mrs.
Lsngtry was the model who perfected
the artists idea of Juliet

Hon. S. ]. Wright, chairman, and
Col. D. Z. Kolp, secretary of the late
Republican convention, arrived in the
city via the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
last evening. They both denounce the
canard of certain papers publishing
among the resolutions the Que demand
Ing OF congress the enactment into law
the bill known as the Lodge election bill.
They say the resolution was neither pro-
sented or read in the convention.

Notes.

Nearly all evening costumes are del
uged with lace.
The tailor bodice may be said to be ev-
oluting backward; the tails are growing
longer every day.
The mousseline de sole and crepe in
white and cream grounds with flowers in
natural colors make exquisite evening
dresses over silk.
1t is said that brown will be the favor
lite color for the coming autumn. So far
there is little to be seen OF the color, but
some pretty brown foulards are shown.
Large rosettes made of narrow ribbon
are arranged as q neck band and tied

closely round the throat, with long float
ing loops and ends of ribbon at the back.
On many dresses the only trimming is
a broad band surrounding the bottom of
the skirt, with sleeves of the same ma
terial; whatever drapery is used must be
SO arranged as to give perfect outline
10 the figure.
Among the notable nattv novelties are
Stanley jackets for autumn wear over
stylish tailor made visiting gowns. They
are fawn- colored Venetian cloth, with
kid trimmings, pointed and dotted with
real silver ornaments.
The sleeveless jackets grow in favor,
not only for the flannel beach costumes,
but for all dresses. One sees gray
dresses with sleeveless fitted jackets of
black silk. These are useful in the pres
ent changeable weather, and especially
serviceRble at the seashore.
The shirt suits appear in every possible
variation of style and material. A dark
brown skirt aud jacket with blue and
brown surah shirt and suede kid sailor
of brown was successful toilet, as also a
gray and white striped wash goods with
jacket collar and cuffs with white en-
broidery and white shirt.
There is a revival OF the pretty fashion
of wearing long wells. Colored gauZe
twisted around the hat and tied in q
careless bow at the side or under the
chin, seems to be universally becoming,
and sOfteus the lines of the face. Mauve
or lilac wells are much worn but those OF
beige-y yellow, striped on the edge with
thu ee narrow bands OF white, are newer.
Paris dressmakers are lightly padding
the skirts of autumn dresses to the depth
of half q yard at the lower edge. This
prevents falling in near the feet, and at
the same time affords firm basis for the
wide band of velvet, galloon or passe-
menterie, which will be one of the
popular forms of decorating O plain
skirt.
A blouse for house wear has a hand
some embroidered yoke IN front and
plain plated back, the front fullness be-
ing confined By girdle of the embroid-
cry drawn from the under arm seam.
The sleeves are exactly like gents
shirt sleeve with embroidered cuff.
About the neck is a tiny rolling collar of
the embr 'ldery drawn down so as to ex-
pose the throat. Dresses even for street
wear are cut down TO the first or second
button and wraps are cut quite low.
Nantes are often quite the reverse of
severe in outline, and, save for certain
differences in substance, might almost be
taken for tea jackets. One of these is
draped jaquette with ribbon cascade frIll
and side sash, and with the graduated
fringe of knotted silk tags, ball drops or
long strands of small jet, but it is quite
usual now to trim outdoor silk mantIes
with plain black chiffon frills. There is
no dolman characteristic in the seasons
CONNECTIONS. They are yoke shoulder
capes, habit skirt pelerines, or mantIes
that have jacket lines, although they
may be of seamless effect, or draped on
one shoulder or at one hin. They are
