Dress of American Women.

In Mrs. Kemble's Further Recollec-
tions" she takes American women severely
to task for their extravaganza. 81 have
nowhere" she writes, "seen extravaganza
to compare with that of American women,
especially in dress. / knew one woman-I
was going to say lady, but retract that
who, wearing during the summer exqui-
site linen dresses made for the American
market, light and cool for the heat, never
had one washed, but as soon as it had lost
its first crisp freshness threw it away. An
other lady of the same stamp paid fifteen
dollars for the ironing of a Powered dress
that was rather tunbledT''
The latter performance can scarcely be
called extravaganza on the part of the
owner of the dress. She was either the
victim of the eXtortion of the renovator or
the work was actually worth it and its
doing boon to some poor person. Con-
corning the second count in the Indictment,
that was eXtravagant and unusual. 1t
is hardly fair to visit the sin of an indi-
vidual upon an entire class American
girls with money are liberal spenders I'M
doubtedly, and as they possess to an ex-
Ceptional degree the desire of all women
for fresh, dainty things they need to be.
This writer, though, has nothing to say
for the American women with very little
money, who, by their skill, economy and
management contrive to "have things"
and go to places" on such limited sti-
ponds. With an income that an English
girl would dub poverty, exile and seclu-
sion her American sister lives in good style
and finds pleasure in existence.-Her

The Glory of a Woman.

1.-THE glory of woman is her hair" we
are told; but that depends in some meas
ure upon the way in which she wears it.
II, as is the custom of some women, she
brushes it backward from her forehead,
and then, after stretching the fbers to the
tension of fiddle strings at concert pitch,
Delays the frightened mass behind her ears,
we must say that the appearance her head
presents is anything but glorious. BY
what technical name this frightful ar
rangement is known we do not know, but
it might appropriately enough be called
the cemetery style.
The ''horrid hair" of a comet is always
drawn back at right angle from its facial
line by reason of the speed at which it
travels; but why any female star of fashion
should emulate that cratic specimen of
fast life in the upper circles in this par
ticular is beyond our ken. The only
wonder is that the hair, under the tremen-
dous pull necessary to impart the requisite
tension, does not give way at the roots like
the tail of Tam O. Shanter's mare in the
fierce grasp of Guilty Sark.
Seriously, ladies, this high pressure
method of dressing your glory is, in
every sense of the word, a serious draw
back to your comeliness. Possibly you may
think that it prevents your fair brows from
wrinkling, but the reverse is the fact. The
skin Of the forehead is unnaturally
stretched in the process, and when the
pressure is removed it is apt to become
corrugated. If you wish to attract adj
miration and not ridicule don't dress
your hair in that manner.-Ledger.

Don't Wash YOnr Corset.

There is absolutely no economy in wash
ing corset. 1t does not pay. The waist
loses its shape, the steels rust, the cloth
wearer is made uncomfortable and the fit
of her dress spoiled 1t is possible to get
nice corset in white, gold, blue, pink,
gray or black coutille with silk laces for
Sl.35. Nearly dozen different makes are
to be had at this figure, and by arrange
ment with the firm at least six styles will
be sent home, so that the customer stands
a good chance of p fit. For $3.50 one can
get the finest quality of English lasting
finished with floss stitching and lace edg-
ing and made with two side steels and a
boned back. Allowing one years wear at
least, this is only an outlay of a penny a
day for corset that will mold a poor
figure into good form, brace a woman up
and add eighty per cent. TO the fit of her
basque.-New York World.

punches of ten or twelve, and set them in
irregular graceful fashion in the moss, and
tied the brim Of the hat in toward the CEN

From beneath the hat narrow ribbon of
the same color was laid to the plate of each
guest, and terminated in small, careless
looking bunch of violets. White and

A Ten Mile Walk Dsiiy.

Walking is q real pleasure, though, per.
haps, not of the very acute kind. 1t
Is in the same case with health You
don't realize how excellent faculty it is
until you have lost the exercise OF it. Ask
equity man or lame man what he thinks
of it. You may then be astonished to learn
what a valuable power still remains at
your disposal.
Some one, when he was asked the secret
of his longevity, is said to have replied:
Sat one meal day, rise at all the year
round, never be out of bed at midnight,
think of nothing In particular unless you
are forced, and walk ten miles every day
of your life"
He may have been wag. this old gentle
man; but otherwise, if he had truly acted
upon his own recipe for long life, seeing
that he was then in his ninetietI year, he
must have had the blessed privilege of Or
dering his days as he pleased. Most of us,
happily or not, are forced to think good
deal daily, and upon subjects that are of
very particular Importance. And most of
us have inherited from our inconsiderete
sires lamentable habit-not easy to be
controlled-of eating at least three meals a
day, without mention of trifes, which,
perhaps, represent fourth.
However, I for one allow that the old
gentleman was very wise to recommend a
ten mile walk once in twenty-four hours.
1t is the one item in his programme that
attempt to practice in my own mortal Ca
reer. Be the day fine or be it wet, go
forth to face it, reckless of umbrella. 1t
seems somewhat idiotic, / willingly admit.
At first / thought it SO, but habit has now
endeared the custom to me, and l would as
soon almost sacrifice my dinner as my two
or three hours constitutional.
OF course, such walk il town would be
monstrous toll. a pavement is as fatigu-
ing as the surface of mother earth itself is
the contrary when trodden in moderation.
There is sort of electric force that seems
10 ascend through the clods and dispense
itself by the channels of ones veins all

be the mere pleasure of feeling the blood
